1st Technique - pendulum swing both legs together to create momentum with feet off the ground once you have enough momentum drop your hips onto one side drop your trapped elbow to the ground frame, and escape 2nd Technique - post one foot down to the mat with knee bent lift other knee into opponents back and put that foot on your posted knee that is bent creating a wedge your opponent can't submit while you can work on getting your trapped elbow to the ground
Hello, I am a white belt, when the higher belts put me in the scarf hold position, they uses their foot to step over my arm to finish like a Americana or straight armbar, what can I do to prevent it?
Welcome to the channel brother - that can definitely be a tough submission to deal with - I would say to immediately disrupt their base by attempting to sit up so that they feel unstable to even attempt to transition the arm to their legs, then try and get your side guard back like in the video. If that’s not working for you, remember that your arm is much harder for them to control as long as they don’t put it over your head so attempt to keep the arm from going past your head while on the floor. Lastly, always attempt to bring the elbow to the floor and if you’re struggling with that at least attempt to bring your forearm across the line that joins both their hips (the hip crease) and keep your wrist on the top side of the top thigh. This will make it hard for them to trap the arm while you work out and give you enough time to continue moving towards and escape with the methods shown in the video. Best of luck and let me know if you have any other questions or problem areas.
25 years of working to perfect my kesa gatame game, every time I click on a video of someone claiming "it's so easy to get out of", I'm deeply disappointed. Poorly executed kesa gatame, silly escape against an opponent who is doing zero to correctly attack from this position. This simply would not work with anyone with serious experience applying kesa gatame. The uke is simply not applying the position correctly nor attacking or counterattacking the elbow and just sitting there letting the trainer pendulum.
1st Technique -
pendulum swing both legs together to create momentum with feet off the ground
once you have enough momentum drop your hips onto one side
drop your trapped elbow to the ground
frame, and escape
2nd Technique -
post one foot down to the mat with knee bent
lift other knee into opponents back and put that foot on your posted knee that is bent creating a wedge
your opponent can't submit while you can work on getting your trapped elbow to the ground
Loved it. Added it to my watch a thousand times in hopes to get better playlist 😂
Love to hear it! Welcome!
