AMERICANA: step by step in jiu-jitsu

SUBMISSIONSIDE CONTROL · ON TOP

Step by step

  1. After stabilizing side control, lower your head: it becomes hard for him to fit a forearm on your neck.
  2. When his arm shows up, grip his wrist with his hand facing down.
  3. Come with your other arm under his biceps and hold your own wrist.
  4. Keep his hand on the floor and first bring his elbow down, dragging the hand like a paintbrush.
  5. Without lifting the hand off the floor, begin raising the elbow to create leverage on the shoulder.
  6. When he tries to help with the other hand or turn onto his side, project your whole body forward with your hips over his chest.
  7. Keep dragging the hand toward his knee and raise the elbow until he taps.
