The Triangle in BJJ isn’t just a Choke
The Triangle Choke with the legs is often wrongly categorized only as submission. While the Triangle Choke is a highly effective Choke in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
The actual Triangle Choke with legs is a viable platform for a myriad of attacks ranging from Oma Platas and Armbars to Wrist Locks and sneaky Lapel Chokes.
In this video I answer a question from Jeff who has short legs and is 5’7.
He wants to get better at the Triangle Choke in BJJ.
During the video I discuss how I’ve always struggled with being flexible and mobile with my lower body. Even as a kid I was told I had tight legs and hips. Compound this with the fact that I have shorter legs for my height and weight.
So I learned how to use the Triangle Choke as a position instead of the Choke. I use it as a position that allows me to attack lots of other submissions and sweeps. The benefit of having these other attacks was that I became comfortable and began to secure more Triangle Chokes.
If you’ve got short legs or struggle with Triangle Chokes in Brazilian Jiujitsu. Then I hope this video is helpful.
