Today’s video is going to be a breakdown of the Arm Triangle Submission in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & MMA and how I would make these 7 adjustments to improve your finishing rate with this submission.

The Arm Triangle is one of my favorite submissions in BJJ, but like most submissions it can be really tough to finish on a competent opponent when even 1 of these 7 details is slightly off.

These 7 adjustments made my Arm Triangle game way better, and I hope they do the same for you!

A lot of these adjustments have come from experience and time. On top of being a coach for a while, there are a few common problem areas where I see my students often struggle.

Many of these details come as answers to those specific common struggles.

If you were having trouble finishing the Arm Triangle, then I hope these tips were helpful.

Thanks for watching.

In this video I answer a question about the BJJ Arm Triangle Choke. The question was mainly about how to make the choke tighter rather than squeezing on someones jaw.

In the video I give some of my favorite adjustments to making the Arm Triangle tighter and a much cleaner submission rather than just driving into someones face.

In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu we always need to remember what our goal is with the choke submissions. Most often it’s to apply pressure to the carotids.

So when you’re drilling and practicing your techniques it’s important to use finesse and apply the submissions with focus on the true objective of that move.

During practice if you feel like you have to squeeze with all your might, it’s probably not technically sound.

Now when it comes to a hard roll or Brazilian Jiujitsu competition. That’s when you add the strength element into things.

Either way if you are struggling to finish the arm triangle choke. I hope this video is useful!

In this video I show 3 options if your opponent defends the Arm Triangle Choke from Mount with the “Answer the Phone” defense.

This video request comes from our buddy Nate who saw one of my other BJJ technique videos where I showed how to setup and finish the Arm Triangle Choke submission.

But he says that when he goes to finish the choke people do the defense where they position their arm as if they are trying to answer a phone.

In this video I show 3 different options you could use in Brazilian Jiujitsu if the person defends this way.

The 1st option is a sneaky armlock that you MUST be careful with as it comes on fast.

The 2nd option is a basic Keylock from Mount.

The 3rd option is adjusting to S Mount and then attacking from there.

I didn’t get into as much detail as some of my other Brazilian Jiu-jitsu technique videos. But I hope that if you’re having issues with this sort of defense that this video will give you some options to think about.

Thanks for watching! I hope the video is useful.
