Knee Lever Attacks from Half Guard | Sweeps | Guard Retention | Single Leg X

In this video we cover the fundamentals of the knee lever from half guard bottom. This is a highly effective technique to off-balance a heavy opponent in order to disrupt their connection and open up space so you can get your arm & leg hooks back in to retain your guard or to sweep depending on your opponents reaction. In this video we use it in a variety of ways to turn defence into offence, hitting 2 sweeps, entering single leg X, and another option where we use it to retake an underhook and enter the knee shield position. 00:00 Intro 00:20 Knee Lever Sweep & Knee Lever to Underhook / Knee Shield Entry 02:43 Drilling the Knee Lever Sweep & Knee Lever to Underhook / Knee Shield Entry 03:07 Knee Lever Single Leg X Guard Entry 05:13 Drilling the Knee Lever Single Leg X Guard Entry 05:24 Knee Lever to Half Guard Sweep 06:31 Drilling the Knee Lever to Half Guard Sweep 06:48 Outro Thanks for watching, please like & subscribe for more!
