I joined the fundamentals class in Chicago today. I learned a very good show that I had yet to practice.

Seatbelt Grip
When holding someone from the back, the seatbelt grip is very effective. This is a grip that I have not been using, but plan to in the future. One arm is over their shoulder, the other arm under their arm. Gabel grip and hold your head close to theirs so they do not head but you, or point you in the face. Your arm over their shoulder will be your choking arm when you get to that.

Cross-collar Choke
A very simple and effective choke when you are on the back is a cross collar. Your arm over their shoulder will be the choking arm. Use your other arm to loosen the lapel, and get a nice deep grip with your choking arm. From there, use your other arm on the opposite lapel and pulled down while you flare your choking arm out. The lapel will become tight around her neck and choked them.

To finish the choke, you can fall to the side of your over arm.



Mount to take the back
If you are a amount, and the person you are destroyed rolls over, allow them to and take them back. You may have to get up on your feet so you are not caught when they roll over.
