  • The long guard has made the difference in me getting hit and not getting hit in both my sparring and my first fight! Thank you so much again for all your advice and knowledge Jeff! I'll have to continue working on all these other benefits of the long guard you've mentioned to truly optimize its use in training and fighting! 🙂

  • Went to sparring tonight and tried implementing the long guard in my rounds and I’ve gotta say, it has been a game changer! Typically, I enjoyed fighting inside the pocket (big Mike Tyson fan growing up) but I was never really successful because of my height or reach - but this guard has opened my eyes and I really saw an improvement. From catching more kicks, countering, and the general line of sight and reaction time I got from just managing distance using these techniques was SO good. Definitely something I’m going to continue using.

  • As a tall-ish leggy guy, Ive been implementing the long guard more during muay thai training and been finding some success. The advice to not paw down the incoming punches and instead deflect is gold, and I look forward to training this specific defensive method more. Ive been caught with one too many head kicks because i dropped my arm too far when pawing down a punch lol. Thanks a ton Jeff!

  • I'm not a tall dude and I used to shell too much and fight in a certain way that made me look even smaller. I've always had a lot of success rolling with punches and kicks, parring and blocking, but I always had a hard time seeing what was coming after a few punches, also nullifying my aggression in the process, focusing too much on defense. Recently, I've been developing my long guard and improving my counters and overall aggression while sparring, all of it thanks to your videos! I thought my reaction time was sh*t, but it was all a matter of distance, thanks Jeff!

  • Long/High guard is my favorite as a long sticky boy (6'5 with legs). Jeff I saw you using your arms to frame, something I wanted to add (if I may) was how you can actually close that space yourself if you properly hand fight/clinch fight. Meaning a tall guy doesn't just have to retreat, they can actually just throw some powerful tools like a straight knee (the Schilt special). Basically you can pick your guard up, feint, hand fight, and then drop in close for a knee or elbow. I also think a powerful short (non standard) front kick is great for a long guard because you can easily kick safely from range, especially if they enter to hand fight. Choosing to enter/exit on your own! Also you can as you said with catching or deflecting a punch, when using high guard turn your lead arm/shoulder more (like you are throwing a punch) and you can hide behind your shoulders too. When I was training under one of the better MT coaches in Texas he told me the point of high guard is to defend yourself, not just push. So basically your lead arm pushing is also a hiding and safe spot for you!

  • Thanks for the 10 out of 10 explanations and demo! This is MMA at its finest. I’ve started using the long guard ever since seeing it on Sylvie von Duuglas-Ittu’s Muay Thai channel. It’s an application of Geoff Thompson’s good old “the fence”, perfect also for self defence as a non-aggressive-appearance stance with psychological defensive functions as well as physical. A lot of traditional martial arts use the long guard without calling it so. More modern ones too, for example Jeff’s demo of using it against jab, cross, etc. is very similar to how they do it in JKD. The lead hand also functions as a push teep, visual obscuration, feinting tool and grapple/clinch starter especially in gi-wearing MMA such as Kudo and Sambo - using it to grip their lapel/sleeve/pant. It also allows a safer transition into other guards, switching stance or combat mode/distance. Jeff, what’s your view on the Dracula guard for MMA?

    @ThomasToPC@ThomasToPC Жыл бұрын

    • One more thought. The long guard is a jab in structure. A jab is the long guard in action. If the jab is the most used and important technique in hand-to-hand combat, why isn’t the long guard the same as a guard/stance/mode? Also, look at competitive weapon sports and disciplines that don't use a shield - e.g. fencing, kendo - aren't their most used stances the same as the long guard in principle?

    • @@MMAShredded Cheers! In my Kudo dojo one of our senpai used to do the Dracula guard in sparring. Interestingly he liked to counter with the back fist strike. But yeah like yourself I prefer to keep my rear hand on its own side, but centre enough to defend jabs and the long-range uppercut. Question for you Jeff and other MMA fighters: Do you find the long guard better than the high guard in defending against opponents shooting in for double/single leg? I find it to be the case in Kudo, and I suspect the gi being one factor, so I’d like to hear from those in no-gi MMA.

  • Best video ever! I have been preaching this for years, but of course you just broke it down on an Expert level that I was never able to. I just always knew the Long Guard paired with Footwork is a far superior Strategy than to just Shell up and take damage, it has always annoyed me that so many Professionals do that on TV and teach it in Gyms. Shelling up and standing still is only for when your gassed and is a temporary solution, if you don't quickly incorporate Footwork too the fight will soon end. Shelling up and waiting for the right moment to counter is too high of a risk, too much of a Gamble.

  • Beautifully edited with your real time sparring as examples, it helps a lot. As a southpaw I've noticed that the lead hand often goes out to check jabs, so I'll try this. Anything else you should be careful with if you do long guard from open stance?

  • This is perfect timing for this video I have been struggling with this in muay thai. Long guard is such an integral tactic but I seem to be blinding myself when I use it. So I end up actually getting hit. I'll make sure to try these tips

  • long guard arm position is almost exactly like the arm posture of bagua zhang single palm. being able to move freely as you defend and attack with either arm is excellent tool. thanks for sharing, I enjoy seeing how you independently have developed similar tools...

    • @@MMAShredded one thing we work on that would improve the guard is making small circles with the arm in a very relaxed way. because of the position a small circle can quickly deflect an arm attack while also keeping the fist in position to attack. it's called cloud hands and when well developed you can use it to go around other's guards. I dunno if your open to talking about this stuff or not. im a long time MA trainer and also have MS in sport science. been focused on bagua training for 20 years now. finding that MMA is starting to get to the point where they are appreciating a lot of the finer points of balance, timing, precision, and awareness, which is what bagua is based on. cheers!

  • Deflecting a straight punch in WingChun/JKD is called a Pak sao. The reason one targets the forearm close to the elbow is because its easier to deflect when someone throws a hard punch as they have less leverage closer to the fulcrum.
