Half Guard Escape to Cross Choke Variation When Opponent Attempts to Defend (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri shows a variation of the previous technique for how to complete the cross choke variation submission when the opponent blocks the second grip. When the opponent blocks Lucas’ bicep for the second grip, Lucas grips the opponent’s sleeve and pulls the arm across the opponent’s body. Using his upper arm and chest, Lucas applies pressure on the opponent’s triceps, near his elbow, and completes the submission by applying pressure on the arm.
