Choke Submissions for the Ground
The primary attack methods for ground fighting outside of striking are submissions using chokes and locks. While joint locks are fast and effective, they can often be countered or resisted by bigger and stronger opponents.
Chokes on the other hand, are powerful tools to defeat an opponent of any size. In this course I’ll cover how to train the variety of chokes available to us either with a jacket, or without.
Understanding Chokes
Note: Solo Training Drills
A grappling dummy is highly recommended if you do not have a training partner to work with. You can also use a large pillow with a jacket wrapped around it.
