Armbar Finish From the Side when Opponent Locks the Arms Together (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to finish the armbar when the opponent tries to defend by locking the arms together. Lucas goes for the armbar from the bottom and the opponent immediately tries to defend by locking the arms together. Lucas slides his inside arm thru and cups his thigh. The opponent tries to come up to keep defending, but Lucas now grips the pants with his other hand. He pushes the opponent to the side making him fall. From here, Lucas pushes the elbow to break the grips and finishes the armbar on his side.
