Meat Hook to Triangle

[ldouglas1000]

@ummoli25 the gable only cinches it the arm should already be in there look at the vid again

[YamaRider93]

I usually go straight from the meathook to the bolt lock variation. It's very easy and very effective. If ur grappling partner starts getting familiar then u can mix it up by using the asylum sweep.

[coolintake]

this move is kosher..gr8 jobs guys

[theGRANDharvest]

10th planet is so sick i wanna see more guys from here in the ufc

[YamaRider93]

@theGRANDharvest , There's a good many of them already. Dan Hardy, George Sotiropoulus, John Hathaway, and bunch of other guys. Chuck Liddel just started training with them quite recently.

[BjjSmile]

This move is so high percentage for me, I think it just requires a certain amount of flexibility.

[dankthumb]

Yeah, I'm a beginner and working rubber guard into my game and I love this move. I have really long legs and good flexibility and have been able to go straight into a wicked triangle. As I transition into the triangle just slightly angling to grab my ankle I can very quickly scoop that foot in and sit back before he knows what hit him. As soon as my partner sees the triangle coming they tend to pull away and that leaves for more space to hook my foot in.

[sad18240]

you guys have so many crazy ass moves .. they're all very neat though!

[ummoli25]

can you explain how you end a triangle without the arm and with a gable grip because i tried it today in class but it didnt work. I had my gable grip around my shin but it was around his cheek and i couldnt get it. Can you explain please?

[Submissions101]

It has to do with your leg and squeezing power as well.Ham string muscles cut into the neck while squeezing your elbows together. Keep drilling...you'll get it.

[AyzieBone]

Hey Ari! I would just like to know, what is the difference between Rubber Guard and Mission Control? Thanks in advance, you guys are awesome!

[Submissions101]

Rubber Guard is the type of guard while mission control is the starting position (wrist to ankle only) in the rubber guard series.

[KingCrimson1982]

@ummoli25 Try angling your body for a tighter choke. Angle mean strangles.

[ummoli25]

question, i noticed that you guys hold your shin instead of trying to get the arm infront and triangling. why do you guys do this? does it work?

[Submissions101]

Yes it works. We hold the shin in order to make the transition tight. You DO NOT have to pull the arm across the face and body (al la Gracie JJ). You can finish the triangle right there with the gable grip and hugging the neck and knee.

[ummoli25]

thanks for the response. So after i get the gable grip around his neck and my shin do i squeeze down or to the side my leg is around his neck>? does that make sense?

[Noneyabusinesschief]

bro you guys do DvD's? you guys have some awesome tech! I teach some of them when I am left to instruct our class! awesome guys!

[zenpickerman]

hey ari! what you are doing is great...

any advice for a tiny grappler in a world of gigantic mat gorillas? everybody just seems to lay on me and tries to wear me out. sometimes i can whip up from 1/2 gaurd or try one of the sweeps from mis. control(if i don't get stacked first). but i have trouble due to my short legs. I was wondering about any 10thP specific areas to focus and drill on, that might give me an edge agaist fat rednecks in rebel flag MMA Gear-

if not i'll just start DDT'n fools

[Submissions101]

Come over to our forum...it is a great place to ask questions and we have a thread going on that focuses specifically on your question.

Cheers!

[nubemuffin]

why do all the 10th planet guys grab there left foot?

[Submissions101]

They don't. I play the other side and grab my right. However, Eddie teaches 90% of his students to play this side and get good on ONE side first, then move to the other. I find it easier to play the right side instead.

[abes292]

Seems like you have to have great flexibility to get to mission control. Anyone know what kind of stretches to work on for that?

[fireonlock]

im sure an opponents arms are not gonna be still like this example

[Submissions101]

of course and it is better when they move! This is a tried and tested technique.

[lallope]

excellent!cool! I really enjoy ur techniques.

[stevenjonis]

is this the guy who defeated the raging redneck? i still dont get what he actually did to win

[TomGavrilos]

I DDTed him : )

Watch close as my legs kick out in the vid and pile drive him head first into the mat.

[Godspeed025]

thank you *bow*

[onelonelywhitekid]

hey guys, great vid's ever since my bro got into the army hes always been teaching me some moves and fighting with me, now that hes home we wrestle alot more, hes a huge fan of BJJ and martial arts etc and we both love your vids ( i got more ways to make him tap ^^) keep up the amazing work =)

[vginawhisperer]

Why did you get rid of the Sprinter Escape video? That was useful.

[Submissions101]

Hey Bro: we re did the video because of an over under head and arm control inconsistency (our bad). The video was REDONE and now labeled NO HANDS PASS (as directed by Eddie ;-) on our main site.

[joemel2]

great vid guys,i'd like your advice on something.i'm now just about to start ju jitsu and there are 2 clubs that are close.one is traditional ju jitsu and the other is mma and train primarily with no gi.they are both on the same night and i just wondered which one you think would be more benificial as i've heard you guys say in the past that training with a gi can give you bad habbits,but the flip side would be that a traditional club would be more stuctured(i guess).which way would you go?

[Submissions101]

Traditional Jiu Jitsu as in Japanese JJ? That will focus on real world and self defense stuff. Traditional BJJ will focus primarily gi ground work. The gi doesn't give bad habits, it is just different when playing nogi. Try both classes out and see what you think. Come join out forum...there are several experienced BJJ/Judo/10pjj guys on there.

[joemel2]

thanks

[peacemaker281]

Thanks Ari and Tom great lesson. Although it was a little more entertaining watching Tom knock out the redneck LOL!

[ononorthey]

Hmm, I especially like the simple grabbing of the shin, actually.

Makes for a smooth transition in which you can go to a couple different things... Thanks!

[10thPlanetDFW]

He isnt supposed to let go of everything to get the triangle at the end. as he grabs his shin he needs to slide it down and grab his ankle and pulling his right foot behind his left. the entire time he should have never let go

[baywest]

I bet that flight attendant really liked your meat hook.

can the jokes come here or should we just keep them in the forums???

[telosnut]

thanks for sharing. great technique

5 stars.

[DynGrecco]

is very good! brasilian in  submissions

[orbite11]

ye i thought this guy was really good, would have no problem if he did more vids with you guys, and its nice to see someone other than the regular guys getting forced to tap lol

[neilf06]

i hate 10th planet jiu jitsu system

[hudsonkoa]

Why? You should give it more reps/stretches and it will be more natural.

[javig26]

dude did a good job.

[TomGavrilos]

thx bro! Actually felt like I should have held on to my shin on the cross over

[Nelby2388]

Why not just hit the triangle on the side where your leg is coming up? In other words, why switch the strangling leg?

[CTUKeyes]

Because this is a "couldn't get the zombie" scenario I believe. His arm was in the way of getting the left leg positioned correctly? Someone Correct me if I'm wrong

[Draykid]

I think that's exactly it.

[wikity]

that would be a reverse triangle... not exactly a high percentage move

[Submissions101]

A reverse triangle is what we call a bolt lock and works quite well but not a first choice move.

[wikity]

i'll have to try it out:)

[charteveld]

yeah i love the bolt choke it works especially well if just get your legs on your opponents head and just crush their jaw/ears, hurts way more they'll tap right away

[ianedwards19]

i beleive CTU is wrong.. i can hear it fine...great video

[CTUKeyes]

first!(I am so sorry...)

Good video but 2 things

dude had a quiet voice. I had to turn my sound way up to hear him

This looks hard to do in a fast paced MMA match...Doesn't look like the highest percentage way of getting a triangle in the world.

[Submissions101]

thanks for the input. That is Tom's first crack at a video. The meat hook to triangle is SPECIFIC the the rubber guard system when you can't get the hand to the mat and get new york. If you know the system, this makes sense ;-)

cheers!

[CTUKeyes]

Yeah I understand...not exactly a BJJ vet but I've put about 6 months time. It's a later resort move. Can't get one thing go to the next right?

[monji112000]

isn't that whole point of BJJ? if this doesn't work, I transition to another...

[rubixxcube]

yep yep

[TomGavrilos]

It is a demonstration of the Meat Hook a specific 10th planet variation. Also sorry about teh voice...my first vid : )

[jflip93]

Yay! submissions 101
