Arm break in arm bar position: Silverado

[rjshoniker]

correct me if im wrong. but doesn't crossing your feet create space for the mask off escape? Isn't this a major no no?

[Submissions101]

@rjshoniker No, this is a major misconception the world over. Crossing the feet locks the shoulder in place and keeps everything tight. That is goal here and not only does Eddie push this concept but several BJJ black belts do too. However, crossing your feet while going for the arm bar off your back is something we do not do (the mechanics are different )

@Submissions101 hey how do you defend when they roll into you with their legs though?i get the arm loose but my partner is really strong(stronger than i am) and he just rolls into me and gets out.

[381awsomedude]

i fail to understand how that would work. Could you explain it better?

PEOPLE HELP ME OUT!

At my club, people dont defend the armbar like that. But they put their hand in to their biscep, kind of like the choke you would from the rear in MMA (the one BJ Penn does all the time). How can I break that bcos its very strong.

[Submissions101]

Look up our "genie" defence video ;-)

[fustertek]

easy, be fast and strong. strength and speed are the key to an armbar.

[TheBellemans]

good movie .

good filming in the end.

[murdnun]

what i dont get is why the ari holds onto the leg by going under and over?? can someone help out?

[zach18012]

you can also do a kimora from this position.

[xesogycit]

if you're going for a last ditch thing, why not just do a bicep slicer instead?

grrr my internet just ran out of bandwidth for streaming media

[ijuh22]

sick! I'm gonna pull this one out next time

[madrockbannanas]

that situation you should just put your knee in the back of his head push forward with it posture up and look toward the celing and go for it

[statechamp86]

If in that most time last thing Pedro would say if gi on is grab his arm then go though and get your on gi then just lean back using your back verse his arms

[supaboy1981]

what is the purpose of having the feet crossed like that? do you find yourself being able to trap your opponents better that way? I ask because I have learned not to do that but I also know that there is more than one way to skin a cat.

[Alendell]

If you do cross your legs, you have to make sure that the leg witch in the face of your opponent is underneath the one crossing you opponent's chest and that the other arm is trapped between your legs. If not, he will clear your leg and climb right out the arm bar. :)

great! now i know how to remove timmy's kung fu grip from my cupcake

[kaltruspy]

cool video

[PVVNEDlive]

good

[ononorthey]

Works really great! I found I could turn it into a pseduo shoulder lock on the way.

Any reason you don't go to it sooner? I found it very effective.

[monji112000]

you must let go of his leg. This allows him to move more and possible escape.

[MeXMMA]

nice

[floysie21]

[batjutsu]

[monji112000]
