Excellent video, i just started and i've had trouble just understanding how I'm supposed to observe Jiu-Jitsu techniques. But now I think understand how to observe.
Once Helio was asked who his favorite nephew was, Ryron and Reylan were the only ones present, he looked at each of them a couple of times, smiled at us and pointed at Reylan, Ryron jumped up and chased him, and beat him up, end of story :)
@ajahni The Gracies never claimed to invent the triangle or any other submission. They just have a particular way they like to do the triangle and they think it is effective in an actual street fight.
Also the triangle is also known in Catch Wresling as the figure-4 so it is not a move that is exclusive to just Japan.
@VitaNegern77 Carlos Gracie believed that the letters “R”, “K”, and “C” were “strong” letters, almost “magical.” Almost all of his 21 children (except for 3 daughters) names’ begin with those three letters. Many of his descendants continue the tradition.
Helio continued the tradition naming all 9 of his children with “R“ as the first letter. In fact, all of his grandchildren’s names, except for one begin with either “R” or “K.” Only Rorion’s daughter Segina's name doesn't start with "R" or "K."
i learned triangle choke but wasnt ever taught how to deal with opponents providing resistance. so it's a really good explanation and i am thoroughly appreciative of it.
@hermanator1989 when doing the triangle, put your hand on your ankle or shin and PULL IT DOWN. pull the ankle of the leg that is on top of your opponent's neck . pull it down towards towards the ground. after that, you can easily lock in the triangle. or just move to the side of your opponent and try the traingle there.
thanks! I have been having trouble getting a full lock on my triangle chokes in judo and I had never thought to try this. I always tried to force them back and regrip, which usually resulted in them escaping the guard or standing back up, I will be sure to try this in my next randori.
@stealth4343 you would have to push them away from you by using one of your knees on their hips to creat the space. with the other leg you would "bite" their neck and bring the leg you used to push, up and over your shin.
@stealth4343 Then you get your face destroyed, because your on your back against the cage, wich is one of the worst positions you can be in. You need to do your best to walk your back up the cage and get up.
Its almost hopeless if somebody has you against the cage when they are in your guard.
@ryujj143 simply dont keep going for it if its being difficult to do, there are other things you could try, and instead of trying to "make" something happen, instead of doing "this this that this and then apply the choke" use whatever is there. Let the opponent place themselves into position for an easier triangle. if you cant get that leg over but have the arm between your legs, drop trying to do that and go for an armbar.
mann... they should pput all the Gracie family (that does jiu jitsu) into a tournament within themselves and see which Gracie is the best. that would be cool
Actually, its "Reylan". All first "R's" in Portuguese sound like "H's". Rener, Ryron, Ralek, Reylan, Horian, Royler, etc. The grandmaster "Helio" was spelled with an "H" though. Pick up the "Combative" dvds and it will be just like you're at the academy, pretty much! =)
He`s getting really excited at 3:00, like he´s utlizing the triangle himself at that very moment LoL
might not be the one with the best skills within the gracie family but in terms of language and integration he´s far beyond them other and will definately be more successfull from marketing point of view ;)
@typographik dude thanks! but thats kinda far from where i livee......... do u noe any other good mma or jiu jitsu gyms by chicago? maybi those gyms will b closerr
Great point that aint stupid what if someone bites your dick on the street. like i have never thought of that becouse i always wear a groin protector when I compete. Maybe going straight to an arm bar or oma palata from there but it takes like eight secounds so shit i dunno.
That's not allowed in sports, and if it was a real fight ... let him bite, getting your tummy bitten won't kill you, but the triangle choke will kill the opponent.
Yes, standing up is a way to escape the triangle choke.But it's pretty hard to do in a full force sparring.When you are in the triangle, you can't see well, you will pass out in seconds, you're kind of balance because one of your arms are trapped.
Many times when the guy tries to stand up, he ends up falling and getting finished at the mount.Kind of a mounted triangle, which is way worse them the guard one, all his weight over you.
no there are many ways to escape a triangle... other than posturing. you can drive your shoulder to the mat, step around his head, stack him, pick him up etc... not saying it's easy, but there are ways if you work them quick enough
if ure doing it corectlyyou should be angled if you are u grab on to a leg and they cant stand. or u can sweep. or if they do suceed in standing up switch your hips and do a standing arm bar. trust me triangle=golden
@Alio15 their fav sexual position is the triangle :) (ok i realise that wasnt that funny.., and didnt make much sense lol but it seemed right at the time!) :)
is it me or does it seem like anytime brazilian people or anyone affiliated with the gracies put way too much emphasis on pulling the arm across..its not even an important component to finishing the triangle..anyone who disagrees watch ryan hall explain the triangle, he gives much more practical details on how to finish the triangle, nd pulling the arm across is not a main priority as alot of people make it seem
Correction, my friend!!! BJJ did not invent any of these techniques instead it copied everything from Jujutsu (which later became Judo) and packaged it as it were Gracie's invention. Wrong!!!
One of the things the Gracie family needs to obtain is humility which is part of any traditional martial art path...but I guess the Gracie's do not seek to enhance their lifes through the practice of Martial arts but their pockets....I repeat Gracie Jujutsu is nothing less than a plagiarism of Nihon JJ.
I would probably have thought something along the same lines as you, too. When I met the Gracie family in real life, they seemed like very chill, humble people.
Another time, when I didn't have a ride home from their studio, a few of the Gracie clan offered to drop me off at my house on their way to another place. Even then, they seemed like pretty down-to-earth people, although I could be wrong as they were speaking Portuguese the entire time =)
@antulio you are very very very wrong. gracie jiu-jitsu came from judo (because of the maeda connection) but was called jiu-jitsu for a variety of political and language-related reasons. you are however right in that the gracie family did not invent this technique; it came from judo in the early 1900s.
This technique was introduced to bjj RELATIVELY not long ago. It was in the 70´s after rolls gracie began training judo and discovered new moves he then incorporated into bjj.

Hey people ive just been wanting some friendly advice.Story is im a wrestler of 3 years and excelled at it. But coming in2 BJJ ive been tearin through people but been lackin technique. So whats some good advice on makin a succesful transfer from wrestling to BJJ? Cuz even tho I was awesome at wrestlinmg I know BJJ is a clear different art and any help,comments or suggestions to this matter would be much appreciated
i actually got a flying triangle by accident when i got taken down by folding my right knee as i was falin, caching him in a half guard with my left, and then extendin my right leg infront of em which put it perfectly round his neck. effectivley makin me look alot better than i realy am at tapout matcches, hahaha
With a solid triangle choke, things go dark after about two seconds, and its only a few seconds more before you are knocked out. The triangle choke doesn't just block your airway, it restricts blood flow from the carotid artery, which makes it very dangerous to hold if held for even a short time after the person passes out. Also, the more force you apply with the choke, the quicker it all happens because there is even less blood flow to the brain.
in the hands of an expert you can put someone unconsoncious in at the least 4 seconds if you held it any longer than after they are unconcious they will probably die because this choke blocks off circulation of blood to the head
the best way to get a triangle choke is with rubber guard. more specifically the meat hook which was created by eddie bravo who defeated royler gracie and could do it again easily to any gracie.
I've had a hard time with rolling. the person im rolling with turns there head away from the biteing leg so the biteing leg is on the back of the neck instad of the side. and pooling down on the back of the neck they can still turn there chin away so how can i stop them from turning there chin sorry for the bad spelling.
make sure that u secure the arm and the biteing leg is tight against the neck...also after shoulder walking u can still twist to the side to get that angle
It is a blood choke. The opponents arm that is stuck in the guard puts pressure on one carotid and your leg must put pressure on the other. Use the opposite leg of whatever arm you trap.
whatever arm is inside the opposite leg goes on his neck. Remember good BJJ is always simple. Just remember you make a right triangle like geometry class and you want the right angle on his neck.
Rener Gracie is may not be recognised as the most skillful of the gracie but I believe he is by far the most articulate speaker and may be the best up and coming teacher of the techniques
I'm always interested in this stuff but aren't you risking killing someone? How do you know when you're just putting someone to sleep and when you're choking them to death?
Choking someone doesn't make them pass out from lack of oxygen, that can take minutes, it deprives the brain of blood. So when they go limp, you let go, the blood starts flowing again and they'll come too. The opponent would be much better suited to tap.
My point is it's much different than holding your breath. Many people can dive underwater and hold their breath for 5+ minutes. You can't get choked for 5 minutes and live.
choking results from lack of oxygen to the brain what do you think is carried by the blood,thats right genius, OXYGEN.I believe you are referring to the difference between choking and strangling.
omg i love jiu jistsu i just recently grappled with my friend who is a lot stronger than me and i chocked him out when he was in my guard. He was absoultly clueless.
It gets hard though my friends when your a big person against a big person seem even crossing my legs anymore is not the most easy thing. As I watched I will try the scoot or shimp out front a little more
at 6:17 i like how he gable grips the "small percentage of techniques" lol Even when he talks with his hands hes doing brazilan jiu jitsu.

Not hard. I just tried it on someone, and almost no force was required.
The pushing up the hips/pulling down his head does 80% of the work

how long does it take from someone to pass out in this choke, and then how long does it take for them to actually die?
damiraclemanda 2 years ago
With a solid triangle choke, things go dark after about two seconds, and its only a few seconds more before you are knocked out. The triangle choke doesn't just block your airway, it restricts blood flow from the carotid artery, which makes it very dangerous to hold if held for even a short time after the person passes out. Also, the more force you apply with the choke, the quicker it all happens because there is even less blood flow to the brain.

damiraclemanda 2 years ago
in the hands of an expert you can put someone unconsoncious in at the least 4 seconds if you held it any longer than after they are unconcious they will probably die because this choke blocks off circulation of blood to the head

the best way to get a triangle choke is with rubber guard. more specifically the meat hook which was created by eddie bravo who defeated royler gracie and could do it again easily to any gracie.

I've had a hard time with rolling. the person im rolling with turns there head away from the biteing leg so the biteing leg is on the back of the neck instad of the side. and pooling down on the back of the neck they can still turn there chin away so how can i stop them from turning there chin sorry for the bad spelling.
skyluke4444 2 years ago
make sure that u secure the arm and the biteing leg is tight against the neck...also after shoulder walking u can still twist to the side to get that angle
jonshultz 2 years ago
You are not Pulling there head in,You arent harnessing the 3 Points of pressure. Ask your instructor,because your doing it wrong.

i just started jiu jitsu and i wanna know on the triangle choke, does it matter where ur legs lock either on the opponents right or left side?
aznwrestle 2 years ago
no it doesn't, but u have the change which hand u isolate for the chock.
israel4ever100 2 years ago
It is a blood choke. The opponents arm that is stuck in the guard puts pressure on one carotid and your leg must put pressure on the other. Use the opposite leg of whatever arm you trap.
Train Hard or Not At All
ChristianDisciple 2 years ago 2
whatever arm is inside the opposite leg goes on his neck. Remember good BJJ is always simple. Just remember you make a right triangle like geometry class and you want the right angle on his neck.

Rener Gracie is may not be recognised as the most skillful of the gracie but I believe he is by far the most articulate speaker and may be the best up and coming teacher of the techniques

I'm always interested in this stuff but aren't you risking killing someone? How do you know when you're just putting someone to sleep and when you're choking them to death?
7freddie7 3 years ago
Choking someone doesn't make them pass out from lack of oxygen, that can take minutes, it deprives the brain of blood. So when they go limp, you let go, the blood starts flowing again and they'll come too. The opponent would be much better suited to tap.
Dexerion 3 years ago
but the blood contains the oxygen
Ilikepeaches1 2 years ago
My point is it's much different than holding your breath. Many people can dive underwater and hold their breath for 5+ minutes. You can't get choked for 5 minutes and live.
Dexerion 2 years ago 2
true
Ilikepeaches1 2 years ago
choking results from lack of oxygen to the brain what do you think is carried by the blood,thats right genius, OXYGEN.I believe you are referring to the difference between choking and strangling.

I'm talking about the difference between holding your breath (oxygen) and choking someone (blood).

I agree it's harder especially when you're a shorter person that's larger. Closed guard is even hard and sometimes impossible.
