Side mount to Armbar (farside)

[Andrew Green]

Kyle has Alex Side mounted, and she has her left arm in poor position. (You can set this position up as well)

 

[Andrew Green]

He traps her left arm with his right by putting his hand behind his head and squeezing.

 

[Andrew Green]

He then moves around her so that his knees are on either side of her head.

 

[Andrew Green]

From here he sits up pulling the arm up and Alex on her side, and brings his left knee up so that his left foot is in her back with his lower leg applying pressure into her so that she is stuck on her side.

 

[Andrew Green]

Finally he moves off to the side to finish the armbar, it is important that he keeps his left foot wedged under her and in tight enough that her shoulder is up off the ground, otherwise she will be able to do a backwards roll and escape.

You are making a few mistakes.

1. Do not put you hand on you head. Instead hold the lower tricep.

2. Post the other hand and pull them on their side before you start to rotate around.

Furthermore they are very inclined to try and roll back to escape so you want to be ready to catch the leg or rotate towards the legs and crank when they try.

P.S. Your training partner is hot.

Your call, but we get far better control with the hand behind the head.

If you keep tight and keep there shoulder up off the ground on the arm bar they shouldn't be able too.

I'll pass that on to Kyle, I'm sure he'll be flattered.

I know several serious female martial artists who would be offended by such a comment.

 

[Rebiu]

You should stop hitting on them then. Just kidding. Would you be offended if she said that about you?

 

[Rebiu]

My mistake.

The technique I describe was for when the arm is on the other side of the head.

When the arm is on that side I do this one.

If they slip out then I go straight to the step over I described earlier.

I believe you are correct with the initial control, minus putting you hand on you head, when the arm is on that side of the head

I am concerned that you technique is unstable when you pull them onto their side from a position above their head they can circle their legs forward making it impossible for you to get the finnishing position and escaping as well. Give it a try and see. Let me know if I am missing some detail.

When you perform this technique as I learned it at RCJ Machados under Rigan Machado, that is by pulling them on their side while still in the side mount position then moving straight to the step around, they do not have this opportunity.

When the arm is on that side I do this one.

That's a completely different technique, I'm personally not as found of attacking that way, I prefer to spin up and arm bar or chicken wing.

No, shouldn't be able too, if they are you are too high up on him. or not pressuring into there back enough. She has no where to spin out if everything is in place.

I don't think that kind of comment is appropriate period, no matter the recipient nor giver and no matter the gender.

No room for hormones on the mat, dood, nor on the forums.

I do not care what you think.

They can pivot forward so that when they pull the arm you will be pulled off balance.

I agree with Shesulsa. I also think Rebiu should post some of his techniques up for us to critique. Andrew has gone to the trouble of posting up moves for us which I certainly appreciate and will be trying the ones I don't know out.

Perhaps these comment would be more appropriate in a private message as they are unrelated to the thread and in fact distract from the substance of the thread.

 

[Rebiu]

You setup leave you vulnurable as well. You are placine you head lower that you hips. This shifts you center of gravity directly over you opponent and they can roll you or elevate you hips to set up a variety of move.

Shesulsa is correct in posting, as your comments were made in the thread. A private message would not show the commitment of the forum to discourage inappropriate comments to everyone would it? I don't think any of us feel it distracts from the substance of the thread.

I suppose that is her job to disrupt threads to assert her control of the forum as you seem to think it is you job to attack every post I make.

Just a thought for you Andrew, get your knees off the ground put all you weight into the person aim it down an threw there body so they have the feeling you are dominating there structure. This is where the pain can come from in ground fighting when you keep the body going into them.
Than as you step keep that weight going into the other person so when you choose to let them move it is because you move them.
Just thought i would say that sorry if it sounded like a put down but i understand if that is a friend an not a training partner that you would not want to go aggressive with.
As you transition to far side arm bar shift there weight away than step.
Outside of that it looks good as far as form goes. I personally lay at angle to there body when i go far side arm bar. So when they try to pull away i slide with them into full arm bar control.

I hope that helps an is on topic.
