<p>If you achieve the mount but are unable to maintain control, you should resort to the guard position. From the guard, you can neutralize<br />punches and submit your opponent with one of several techniques. In this lesson we will discuss the Triangle Choke which is one of<br />the most amazing techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, since it gives any individual the ability to render their opponent unconscious from<br />the bottom of the fight. In this lesson, you will learn the finishing steps first and then you will learn two setup variations of the Triangle<br />Choke.</p>
<p>Technical Slices™<br />1) Triangle Finish (Preparation Drill)<br />Essential Detail: Walk shoulders back to facilitate the neck bite and full lockup<br />Most Common Mistake: No thigh squeeze and no patience during final squeeze<br />Bad Guy Reminder: Stay rigid on top of your opponent, and increase the forward lean after each successful repetition<br />Drill Orders: Start from Triangle Setup position, 1 repetition, reverse roles<br />2) Stage 1.5 Variation<br />Indicator: Opponent is in your guard and you are able to establish Stage 1.5.<br />Essential Detail: Shrimp out to insert knee more effectively<br />Most Common Mistake: Weak body and head control during the setup steps<br />Drill Orders: Start from Stage 1, 1 repetition, reverse roles<br />3) Giant Killer Variation<br />Indicator: Opponent is in your guard and is too large for you to apply the Stage 1.5 Variation.<br />Essential Detail: Effective head block and shrimp movement<br />Most Common Mistake: Weak foot placement on hips<br />Bad Guy Reminder: Keep driving forward during the technique<br />Safety Tip: Don’t kick your partner in the face<br />Drill Orders: Start from Stage 1, 1 repetition, reverse roles</p>

<p>In many cases, the precise movement and aim of your opponent’s strikes are hard to predict. Sometimes, however, your opponent is<br />so eager to attack you that their punch is totally predictable. The “Haymaker” punch is used when a determined attacker comes at you<br />from a distance with the objective of putting all of their body weight behind one killer punch. Because of the haymaker punch’s power<br />and predictability, the best option is to slip underneath it and get behind your opponent.</p>
<p>Technical Slices™<br />1) Haymaker Punch Defense<br />Indicator: Opponent throws an overcommitted and very predictable haymaker punch at you.<br />Essential Detail: Step with the correct leg and protect your face with the front arm<br />Most Common Mistake:: Head remains in front of chest instead of slipping around the back<br />Bad Guy Reminder: Aim for the head to make the punch as real as possible<br />Safety Tip: Refrain from actually hitting your partner during practice<br />Drill Orders: Start from standing, Slip the Haymaker, control rear clinch for 5 seconds, reverse roles</p>
