9/11 — Never Forget 🇺🇸

Today we remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the courage of the first responders who ran toward danger when everyone else was running away.

While you skip training, someone else is hitting the mats.

They’re getting sharper.
They’re getting stronger.
They’re getting harder to beat.

Every class you miss is an opportunity someone else is taking.

Get back on the mats. 👊

🥋 YOU DON’T NEED A FANCY GUARD TO FINISH.

🥋 Armbar Trap → Guard Escape

Sometimes the best way to escape the guard is to let your opponent think they have an opening.

The key is timing.

Give them just enough opportunity to believe they can attack your arm. When they commit to the armbar:

1️⃣ Protect your arm — don’t let them isolate and extend it.
2️⃣ Post your hand behind their thigh/knee.
3️⃣ Stack their hips and take away their space.
4️⃣ Use the pressure to work your way around their legs.
5️⃣ Pass the guard.

The goal isn’t to fight the armbar once you’re caught. It’s to recognize the attack early, use their commitment against them, and turn their offense into your escape.

Make them think they have the arm. Then take the position away.

🥋 Train the technique. Master the timing.
