Defending and Escaping from Triangle Attempt (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri shows how to defend and escape from a triangle choke attempt. The opponent brings his legs over Lucas and tries to lock the triangle. Lucas immediately grips the collar to prevent the opponent from crossing his arm over. The other hand is used to grip the pants. Lucas stands up and places his knee in between the opponent’s leg and then sits. When he sits, he forces the opponent to release the legs.
