What Will You Learn?
The armbar is one of the most prolific submissions in combat. In BJJ it is used at the highest levels of competition. Due to its effectiveness and how commonly it occurs, being able to defend the armbar from a variety of positions is a MUST. European standout Dinu Bucalet provides a complete masterclass on how to defend and defeat the armbar.
Dinu’s latest series covers game changing concepts that will help you survive even the tightest armbar attacks. Small details on arm positioning and alignment can make a major difference in your ability to escape. These small changes coupled together with next-level techniques like the hitchhiker escape will keep you safe in numerous positions from the dreaded armbar.
Another key area that the series shines a light on is passing the guard off of a failed armbar attempt. Bucalet teaches how to turn a sketchy situation into an advantageous one by putting your opponent in a bad spot after attempting the armbar while in the guard. As an added bonus, Dinu shares how to use this situation to your advantage by baiting armbars, and forcing them to fail.
The last section of the series focuses around defending armbar attacks off of your back, and other less-dominant positions. Here you’ll discover several escapes that will be sure to get you out of a jam against a larger/stronger opponent. Worry less about armbars with this 4-part masterclass on armbar defense!
