Arm in Guillotine Choke from Half Guard Bottom

No-GiGi

A powerful submission by Brian Glick where you choke the opponent with one of their arms trapped inside the loop of the Guillotine choke.

Drill Steps

1

Trick your opponent into putting their head down

  • Control their arm with your secondary arm
  • Lock their legs and try to push them to the side
  • Their defence would be to lower the center of their weight
2

Tangle your primary arm around their neck

  • Bring your body up by doing a sit up
  • Alternatively, use your leg and a pendulum and lift your body
  • Wrap your arm around your opponent's neck
3

Lock your hands together.

  • Thread your second arm under their arm
  • Use a gable grip or an S-grip
  • Move your hands towards the secondary arm to decrease the opening
4

Create an angle to finish.

  • Recline your body
  • Try to connect your primary elbow towards your hip
  • Instead of pulling, try to fold their body
  • This gives you more space to submit
5

Apply the submission pressure.

  • Hip your body out towards the secondary arm to create space
  • Bring your free leg over their back
  • Bring your chin towards your partner's back
  • Secondary elbow pulls as primary elbow drives down
