And now it&#8217;s twice as effective because he&#8217;s only got one arm.\u00a0 At my school we call this the BJ Penn.\u00a0 Because if you watch some of his fights, he would attack with his rear naked choke. \u00a0 <\/p>\n<p> One of the common errors I see is people will reach with this [opposite] hand.\u00a0 There are a few problems:\u00a0 First, I can&#8217;t reach as far down with this hand [opposite] as I can with this hand [same side].\u00a0 I really wanna stuff his arm low, away from his neck.\u00a0 The next problem is I&#8217;m trapping my own arm in a little bit.\u00a0 It makes it hard to push down here, get this hand out of there, and take this hand.\u00a0 It always makes more sense to just push down and boom, come right out.\u00a0 Some people like crossing their feet.\u00a0 If you&#8217;re one of those people, it&#8217;s alright.\u00a0 My only problem is that it adds a little bit of space sometimes.\u00a0 It&#8217;s not wrong, but just not my cup of tea. \u00a0So one more time, as soon as I lock up the back mount, I grab, I push down.\u00a0 I kick over, come out, and choke.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gracietampasouth.com\">MMA Tampa<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn the arm trap rear naked choke that BJ Penn used against Jens Pulver.
