What You Get In Cutting Edge Leglocks with Rob Biernacki and Stephan Kesting

Here is a quick overview of what you can find in each volume of Cutting Edge Leglocks. This instructional contains over 10 hours of organised, no-filler content with techniques, strategies, counters, recounters and drilling footage.

Volume 1, Cutting Edge Leglock Concepts and Strategies

Volume 1 of Cutting Edge Leglocks gives you a high-level breakdown of the concepts and strategies used by today’s highest-level leglockers.  Understanding these ideas will help keep you current and provide a strong context for the subsequent instructional material.

The Changing Leglock Meta – Base, Posture, Structure, Frames, Levers & Wedges – Critical Concepts for Maximizing Your Breaking Mechanics – Primary & Secondary Submission Theory – The 3 Ingredients of Any Good Leglock – The Classical Flow vs the Reverse Flow – Break or Take Back or Pass or Sweep – Lever Control to Get on Top and Prevent Backtakes – The Rise of Secondary Leg Attacks – Understanding and Winning Shootouts

Volume 2, The 411 / Saddle / Cross Ashi

The 411 position is one of the most powerful ways to attack the legs because it controls your opponent while giving you access to the inside heel hook. Now you can learn how to make this position even more powerful with improved methods of applying the heel hook, countering his escape attempts, and entries that he won’t see coming and will find incredibly difficult to stop!

This is essential knowledge for the modern leglocker!

The Updated 50/50 Position – Concepts to Win the 50/50 Battle – Double Seated 50/50 Overview – Basic Double Seated Positioning – Heel and Toe Slipping for Heel Hook Defense – Gripfighting for Heel Hook Defense – Applying the Heel Hook from Double Seated Guard

Volume 7, Passing the 50/50 Position

To have a good 50/50 game, you need to be comfortable on both the top and the bottom. In this section, Rob will teach you how to keep the pressure on your opponent from the top position, smash him, pass his guard, or submit him with submissions that come on quickly and effortlessly.

Volume 8, Bottom 50/50 Attacks and Secondary Submissions

The world of the 50/50 has been transformed by improved attacking strategies from the bottom.  Historically this was a symmetrical position where both competitors would race to finish the submission first. Still, now you’ll learn new approaches to flip the script and attack your opponent from the 50/50 without putting yourself at risk. This might be the most essential part of the instructional.

Volume 10, Reverse Pathways and Ankle Clamps

Most leglock attacks start by controlling the leg entanglement position first and then moving on to the actual finish second.  The reverse pathway approach turns that paradigm on its head; in a reverse pathway approach, you start by controlling the foot at the end of the lever and only then shooting into position for the submission.  Submissions applied in this manner come on QUICK and POWERFUL, making this an approach all serious competitors need to be aware of.

Reverse Pathway Attacks – Outside Ankle Clamp and Inside Heel Hook – Overhook Grip Spin to Outside Heel Hook – Overhook Grip Spin to Kneebar – The Inside Ankle Clamp Position – Inside Ankle Clamp to Outside Heel Hook – Underhook Grip Spin to Outside Sankaku – Underhook Grip Spin to Kneebar

Volume 11, Countering Leglock Backtakes

The development of rolling back takes to counter leglock attacks has been a major development in the game, and therefore as a leglocker, you need to understand and know how to counter this style of back take.  Fortunately, there are tried and true methods you can use to shut down his rolling back completely take, end up on top, or even improve your position to apply even more devastating leglocks.

Who is Stephan Kesting?

My name is Stephan Kesting.  I’m the producer and co-teacher of Cutting Edge Leglocks and have been doing leg locks since WAY before they were considered cool (check out the video above for proof).

I’m a BJJ black belt and have been doing martial arts for over 41 years, including many grappling arts like sambo, judo, submission wrestling and shoot wrestling.

I’ve been teaching online for a long time. My Youtube videos about BJJ have over 60 million views, I’ve sold tens of thousands of instructional DVDs and apps, and millions of people have visited my Grapplearts website.

The very first leglock I ever learned was shown to me by Dan Inosanto in the early 1990s; I have trained extensively with leg lockers like Erik Paulson, Oleg Taktarov, Marcus Soares, and others.  So this has been an area of particular interest to me.

Leglocks have allowed me to beat BJJ black belts, win competitions and feel like an ace was up my sleeve when facing a really tough opponent.

So with all that leg lock experience, I feel like I”m in a good position to judge, and I can confidently say that Cutting Edge Leglocks is the most ground-breaking leglock instructional I’ve ever seen.

I endorse this instructional completely and guarantee it 100%.
