Forced Triangle

Here is a easy and basic variation of the classic triangle choke.

• Step 1

Here, I start in the closed guard with wrist control on Jason.
• Step 2

With my right hand I force, or push, Jason's left hand to the side of his neck.
• Step 3

I have opened my guard, shot my hips up and locked my legs around Jason's head and right arm.
• Step 4

Here, I pull Jason's right arm across his neck to my right.
• Step 5

Using my legs, I pull Jason down, trapping his arm across my stomach. Both hands go behind Jason's head to keep him from posturing up.
• Step 6

I place my left foot on Jason's right hip, pivoting my body to the right as I bring my right foot up towards Jason's head.
• Step 7

Using my left hand, I grab my right shin and pull it over the back of Jason's neck.
• Step 8

I throw my left knee over my right foot. To finish I raise my hips, squeeze my knees together, and pull down on Jason's head.
