Grappling Grips: Gable & S-Grip

The mechanics of the fundamental grappling grips: The Gable Grip and the S-Grip.

This was the first thing I learned about grappling, and probably the most important to this day.

These grips can be used in all grappling arts, including clinch fighting, and are especially effective for no-gi grappling.

what about interlacing your finger grip? =D its common i've noticed for me to grab interlaced. only cuz it seems the easiest for quick grip, because i dont have to lock them up hand to hand, i can be off my right finger in between my left fingers middle & ring finger.

the only bad thing about interlacing fingers for grip is that you can bend your own finger back before the lock. and its fairly easy to pull apart, when pressure is applied.

Interlaced fingers = broken fingers.

Don't do it.

@monoforraptunes the gable has better crush and so can be used for chokes,tighter control and heavy lifting.S grip is greater circumference,looser so more adaptable to change position and and since fingers are covered,very hard to peel off.S grip is often used for body locks because its easier to reach around a struuggling opponent.I personally dont have a strong enough fingers to lift heavy dudes with it.

most greco guys and MMA fighters use the s-grip,dunno why the gable grip is so much more powerfull...
