Sweeps and chokes

December 31st, 2009 by jgatienza

sweeps from the guard

grip your opponents gi sleeve and use your knees to bring your opponents arm across both your chest, open guard and get to quarter guard, reach around and grap his lats, your chest should be blocking his trapped arm, with your right hand grab his gi around his leg, turn your head to the direction you are sweeping him, you can also do this sweep by posting up on your right elbow and then shooting your hand thru to under his leg for the sweep.

submissions from the quarter guard. if you can’t get the sweep, fall to your shoulder and shoot your arm under his trapped arm and across his neck, secure both hand and squeeze him into your chest and use your core muscles

if he defends that choke, post up on your right hand and with your left hand grab his label, fall backwards and place your right hand over your left wrist and lock your feet for the choke
