    Need help from Lockdown

    Hey guys! So I've been working on my lockdown and the advice I've gotten from this forum has helped alot so far. So I'm having alot of success from lockdown but some guys at my gym are doing something that's tripping me up a bit. I get lockdown with double underhooks and guys will use their free leg to hook my inside leg and separate it from the lockdown. They grapevine it similar to what someone might do from mount. They seem to be stuck themselves when they do this but it takes away my whip up. Any advice on how to prevent this or nullify it?

    Easy soluation, go for whip down before they break open your lockdown... then work from there. My LD game got way more dangerous and whipdown aka reverse LD became my goto. I barely even whip up at all anymore

    Ive got e Lockdown 101 Videos. You might find some useful stuff in there

    Getting a lockdown is one sport, keeping it while fighting for a clinch is another sport. Use pants and ankle sleeves for maximum lockdown efficiency

    If he grapevines your inside foot he’s effectively opening up a trap and roll on that side. I’ve had success bridging as they swing their leg to break your lockdown off. Timing is critical but it’s a drop the mic sweep that I’ve caught against high level guys. Trap the foot, frame their head and push it with your far side bicep reaching over your head, use your other hand to trap their cross facing arm.

    Once guys know your LD is dangerous, they wont go anywhere near it.
    Then your biggest issue becomes just getting there.
    I have found the easiest path for me is from bottom knee shield with the Zelda or EZE as shown in my videos above.


    Back on the classic Master the Rubber Guard DVD Eddie shows an entry from shin to shin called "The Stake Out"... but hedidnt go so deep on it and I personally could not get it to work.

    Anyone have any success with it, or have any other LD entries they want to share?
