How to baseball choke

In this comprehensive BJJ tutorial, we delve into the intricacies of the highly effective and versatile submission known as the baseball choke.

The baseball choke is a powerful technique that can be utilized from various positions, including side control, mount, and even the turtle position. It involves using your opponent’s own lapel to apply a chokehold, putting immense pressure on their neck and forcing them to submit.

In this video, our experienced and knowledgeable instructor takes you through each step of the baseball choke, breaking down the mechanics and providing invaluable tips to ensure your success.

Next, we discuss the key details of transitioning from side control to mount while maintaining the lapel grip. This seamless transition not only ensures a smooth execution of the choke but also enhances your positional control, making it harder for your opponent to escape.

Furthermore, we explore variations of the baseball choke, such as the modified baseball choke from the turtle position. This variation allows you to catch your opponent off guard and capitalize on their vulnerability, leading to a swift submission.

Throughout the tutorial, our instructor emphasizes the importance of maintaining proper posture, controlling your opponent’s movements, and executing the technique with precision and efficiency. These essential details make all the difference when it comes to successfully applying the baseball choke.
