Instructions
- 1Start with one leg over the shoulder and the other leg's knee bent for the lock.
- 2Pull the trapped-side leg across and angle your hips 45 degrees off-line.
- 3Lock the figure four with the leg, not by pulling the head with your hands.
- 4Finish by pulling the head down and extending your hips, not squeezing the knees alone.
What to focus on
Cutting an off-angle before locking the figure four.
Common mistake
Staying square to the opponent, which leaves the choke loose and easy to posture out of.
