Far Side Armbar from Knee on Belly
2 Part Lesson -- Marcelo gives insight on more details for an effective armlock: When you pull your opponent onto his or her side to expose the arm and shoulder for Jujigatame, it is important to keep your base; prevent your opponent from pulling his or her elbow back down to the mat while also blocking him or her from turning strongly into you to get on top. [04:22] You can find the Far-Side Underhook for the Armbar from Knee-On-Belly. Oftentimes, the opportunity comes from forcing the opponent to move underneath your pressure. Your knee can act as a barrier to stop the opponent from turning towards you while you enter into position for the lock. Also, you don't have to square your hips around the shoulder immediately after you fall to your hip. Instead, take the time to adjust your lock and keep the arm extended before applying the finishing pressure.
