What is the difference between this arm triangle and the one where you get the choke then move from mount to the side to put apply more pressure? Or is that just an extra part of this choke if that variation isn't working?

[AllRangeSelfDefense]

@Vest28 Yes, you shift to the side away from the arm on his neck and apply more pressure if you need to.

Öld school.

[bjjartist]

Old school is right and very effective. The arm triangle is favorite choke.

[sireweezsmucker1]

@Vest28 You can shift your weigh on mount from one side and grapevine hook on the opposite. play with that.

from my understanding, using your shoulder and your neck to create this pressure > < like a collar choke(though its hypotethical no gi) and forward pressure will do the trick. so will crossing your legs under your opponents mount and applying forward pressure( back arched). I'm a little rusty, but again play with those things.
