Great leglock additions from lockdown. Great tutorial to add a nice lockdown system to your halfguard game.
great
Being an older grappler, this is exactly what I needed to slow down the younger guys.
I love the lockdown for mma
I spend almost all of my time in half gusrd (when I'm not getting submitted). Implementing this immediately
Very detail oriented and breakdown of techniques is exceptional.
I was unfamiliar with the intricacies of this position before this instructional. It's pretty easy to add to my game.
detailed
Extremely easy to digest and thorough overview of the lockdown system. Very highly recommended
But im happy to share the frustration to others too, from now on! Great details, excellent teaching!
This has made my half guard so much more effective
Great in-depth details on the position!
Professor Tom DeBlass provided a step by step manual of how to set up and utilize the lock down to slow the game down to your favor and hit sweeps and submissions. He points out common mistakes and misunderstandings and shows how to avoid. I personally use it as a back up plan for my half guard game and it really supports because of this instructional!!
Great instructional, thoroughly explains the lockdown techniques
Very comprehensive instructional of the lockdown. It had a lot more content than what i expected. Tom’s instruction is straight to the point. If you’re a lockdown player this is a must have
Very well explained, incredibly helpful
Systematically attack and dominate using the lockdown! DeBlass is brilliant!
I really enjoy using the lockdown to slow down my younger faster opponents and this had many tricks and avenues detailed, that I had not explored yet. If you play the lockdown at all this is a must have.
Fantastic technique and very well articulated and easy to follow.
There is no better lockdown positional instruction available on the market. I have used plenty of material from this instructional on the mats.
This guy explain think very well and the techniques are cool for the people who love the lockdown and a pain for the haters
Lockdown an half guard has alway been my A game. This brings a different perspective that I really enjoy an his explanation of the technique is on point. So for a beginner this is a perfect introduction into the lockdown system, or for the advanced it adds more to your game.
Great content helping and completing your game if you use the lockdown !
Thanks to the pandemic I normally say to **** with lockdown but this is solid. I thought I had the world by the *** or I guess the leg with electric chairs and electric sweeps but there is a whole new world out there.
This is a great for details to help perfect your lockdown game. It also opened my eyes to other options from this position.
Tom DeBlass shows everything about the lockdown. This technique is incredible, it changed my game.
As a lockdown player, I am constantly striving to improve my knowledge; this instructional did more than improve my knowledge, it made me realize what I knew about lockdown was minimal. From minor adjustments to new ways to attack from lockdown, this tutorial has it all. Tom does an awesome job at breaking these techniques down in to understandable portions. I have already recommended this tutorial to others at my gym.
Tom DeBlass gives an amazing explanation and provides details on what he has picked up over years of competition. He doesn’t just show steps 1-4 but explains subtleties to get there and what you’ll probably encounter during your rolls.
As always, Tom DeBlass delivered! The Lockdown blueprint is so easy to follow I hit the Electric Chair in class the next day. All of the content is on par with Tom’s other instructional videos.
I just ordered it like 20 min ago so obviously i havent received it yet lol. But anything from Tom Deblass is friggin gold. I LOVE lockdown so when i saw that Tom has something out with his own flavor to it I HAD to get it!! Tom and Chewy are really the ones that i follow consistently (not a stalker) lol. Yes i watch everyone else but the 2 named individuals are fellow big boys who move around like they weigh 162.7 lbs :joy: Cant wait to get it. This thing says i can watch them already but havent been able to figure it out. If not ill just impatiently wait for the :mailbox_closed:
as i half guard player, I started using the position with the eddie bravo's old dvds. deblass really hit the nail, giving a new view on the position outside the 10th planet system and adapted to the modern grappling. well done.
Very clear instruction. Simplifies some tough techniques.
Man, anything Tom DeBlass puts together is awesome content. I had this during COVID and it was worth the money.
that being said, I couldnt stand always being trapped in it and not understand how to use it. Thanks Tom!
this is by far the best lockdown positional instructional on the market and would highly recommend it if its a position you are interested in , i have used plenty of stuff from this instructional on the mats
Tom puts out another killer instructional. The lockdown while not my primary style of half is good to have. It compliments my other half guard game. Grab this if you dog half guard and want something a little different.
Great stuff, great new perspectives on the lockdown position.
I have been trying to grasp lockdown for about 6 months now, had some success with it but was not able to utilize it's full potential as I was missing key concepts. This vid is excellent, I have better understanding now what and how to play it. Can't wait till I can try it.
Excellent insight to the lockdown position in half. I would recommend this to gain information on how to best utilize this position as an offensive tool and not just a way to pressure back an opponent.
Very easy to understand and through introduction to the lockdown. Clear examples of what is going on and not lost in a sea of 10th Planet lingo.
Lots of good options from lockdown. I'm not a 10th planet guy, so its nice to get a different perspective on the lockdown.
helping to improve my lockdown game
Really like all his instructionals
Very clear instruction. Easy to comprehend. Looking forward to trying these techniques
Tom is a brilliant teacher, I learned more from this video than from Eddie Bravo's about lockdown! I appreciated he is using a smaller partner: despite his structure, Tom is very agile.
Good info. Easy to follow.
I like to play with lockdown and this video gave me many new tools to improve my game.
This instructional really expanded on my lockdown options. I am slowly introducing them into my game, and reviewing specific section before and after success on failure has been great. As a small person having a lockdown is a god send.
Very good explanations
This helps so much being a smaller guy being on bottom of side control
