What do Rodrigo Cavaca, Marcus “Buchecha” Almeida, and Roberto Cyborg Abreu have in common? Other than the World titles, ADCC wins and Pan Ams medals? They all trained foot locks with the same person: Roli Delgado. Roli is a 2nd degree BB (Denilson Pimenta), student of Billy Robinson, and level 5 instructor of Hayastan (Max Bishop). Legal Leg Locks for BJJ is about 90 minutes long and focuses primarily on straight ankle locks and toe holds.
Roli’s approach to teaching is very similar to Ryan Hall. The app begins with a focus on applying the submission correctly with sound fundamentals. Roli then delves into the concepts that you’ll need to make the most of these attacks. The final few sections are details on how to adjust when the sub doesn’t work, how to escape when you’re the one in trouble and finally how to counter attack. As always there is a PDF of the study guide available for download at the end of the article. There's also a video at the end of Roli teaching some attacks from the 50/50.
