Head & Arm Flow
Thu Jul 13, 2006 6:36 am
The Head and Arm or Scarf position is a common position in Submission Wrestling, here is a lockflow drill for Submissions to add to your game and look out for. This flow has 4 submissions: Straight armbar, Kickstand armbar, Telephone arm lock and side choke. Remember, flow drills are not grappling, and your partner does not resist - it's simply a drill to train your submissions and the ability to see available options.
Step 1
I start in the head & arm position on Caleb | Step 2
Using a Palm down grip, I grab Caleb's wrist |
Step 3
I push Caleb's arm straight, I want to make sure that his thumb is down and his elbow is locked against my inner thigh | Step 4
I step my left leg over Caleb's arm, I want to make sure my knee is upward and I drag his arm with my left leg to straighten his arm. To finish the submission, I arch my hips forward. |
Step 5
To relieve pressure off his elbow, Caleb turns his thumb upward | Step 6
I lift my right knee off the mat and push it against the outside of Caleb's elbow |
Step 7
To finish the 'Kickstand' Armbar, I extend my left leg outward as I continue to turn my right knee inward | Step 8
Caleb turns his arm out and pulls it out from between my legs, Anticipating this, my left arm is ready to grab his arm |
Step 9
I lean forward, grab Caleb's wrist and press it down to my right knee | Step 10
I step my left foot up to my right... |
Step 11
I step my right leg over Caleb's arm and trap it into the bend behind my right knee | Step 12
I triangle my right foot behind my left knee |
Step 13
I grip Caleb's head, walk my legs back to Caleb's right hip as I pull his arm and head away from eachother to finish the 'Telephone' arm lock | Step 14
I put my left hand behind Caleb's right elbow and unlock my legs |
Step 15
I release Caleb's right arm and push Caleb's elbow across his face as I drop my head behind his right elbow | Step 16
I drop my right ear down to Caleb's right ear as I begin to move my right leg back |
Step 17
I grip my left bicep with my right hand, I try to make sure that my right bicep is as deep into the left side of Caleb's neck as possible and place my left hand on Caleb's head | Step 18
I spawl my legs back and drop my hips as I pess my head and grip as tight as possible |
Step 19
Walking my right foot to left, and then left foot out - I create a better angle for the choke. To finish this submission I tighten my arms, press my head into Caleb's head and flex my right bicep into the left side of Caleb's neck |

Poor Caleb, blocked at every angle. ![]()

This is my bed and butter! I use a sag or a pancake for the takedown and go to work. One other move I would add is with the arm trapped you can roll over and go for a key lock or inverted arm bar on the other side.![]()

Although, head and arm control is something I avoid, I would always try and get the underhook on the far side to prevent them taking the back.....
