Just some details to help with executing the armbar:
- Never forget the basics: keep everything tight - knees, tombstone, feet - and don't try to muscle. Use a STRAIGHT back to break the grip.
- If the grip won't budge, FIRST try readjusting your grip: Hold (control) their gable grip with one hand while you bring your elbow pit higher on their forearm, creating more leverage, then break.
- SECOND (if the first doesn't work), try the feet approach - first use your INSIDE foot, then if that isn't enough use both.
- So you've attempted the armbar, but they've grabbed their own lapel and are preventing you from finishing. So you have one arm locked in their arm already.
- Grip your thigh with that arm to maintain control.
- Hold their grip with your other hand while you bring the opposite-side foot over their grip.
- Immediately grab your own foot, securing it tightly on top of their wrist (this is a quick little switch in the location of your hand gripping).
- Triangle lock that foot with your other foot that was controlling the head (replacing your hand in securing the grip).
- Rotate your arm that is in the elbow pit of your opponent (effectively increasing the width of the part of the arm pressing against his forearm and his bicep).
- Pinch things tight with legs and arch your back. This will cause a really quick tap if secured.
