Grappling Techniques

Yo folks, its been a while! Been busy getting punched in the face alot, hence the black eye!

Lot of my guys been playing the Darce game so heres a little variation when you have the vice grip and can't turn the guy over.

UFC fighter Alan Belcher does a fantastic job of demonstrating and explaining how and why we should go for an armbar when we have our opponent's back.

We here at Lockflow want you to be the guy putting people in heel hooks not being caught in them and thats why you need to watch this video.

Lockflow wants you to watch ADCC champion Rafael Mendes teaching his favorite nogi submission at his Art of Jiu Jitsu Academy in Costa Mesa, CA.

What I love about most submissions is that fact that they can be hit from so many different places and so many different scenarios.

I have a student that is so good at doing the kimura that we call him "Special K" haha.  He hits this submission from EVERYWHERE!

So here is a follow up to my first Kimura Concepts video that I called Hunting For the Kimura.  If you didn't see the video…definitely check it out!

Taking the Back off The Kimura Trap is one of the best attacks and provides for a very smooth flow.

This particular back take is also combined with the one arm choke, a variation of the rear choke that immobilizes both your opponent and puts him ready to tap. This is the same choke I used to tap out Tarsis Humphries at ADCC.

Here it is grapplers... watch two of Strikeforce champion's Ronda Rousey's training partners, Eddie Bravo and Alan Belcher breakdown the arm bar that Ronda used at Saturday's Strikeforce event to defeat challenger Sarah Kaufman. 

The Kimura Trap System is very powerful submission series that will have you hunting for Kimuras from every angle.

Using it to defend takedowns is one if it's strong points.

Check out how you can counter a head inside single leg and put your opponent "in the trap."

In my next video, I will show you how to finish the trap and get the tap.

Whether you call it the Marcelotine, Makenzietine, Swickatine, Prayer, Loop, Front choke or by it's most common name, the Guillotine choke has proven itself to be one of the most dominate finishing holds in both the Grappling and Mixed Martial Arts worlds. 

In this instructional video, fighting royalty Renzo Gracie shows us a great counter to this most common attack. Renzo shows us how to defend the standing guillotine attack by getting the takedown and finishing our opponents with the Phantom Choke (aka Von Flue)

Try it out and let us know how it works for you.

Every now and then when we are searching the internet to bring you the coolest and newest fighting techniques we find a  entry that make us say to ourselves, "Why didn't we think of that?".  This entry to the back is one such technique, check it out and let us know what you think. We are sorry, but unless you speak Portuguese, you'll have to just watch the technique without understanding the audio.
