Neil is one of my favorite bjjfanatics content producers, guy puts out unorthodox stuff that is incredibly fun and useful. This particular series gets used almost daily when I roll. Pick it up and put it to use!
Neil delivers s thorough arm triangle instruction as a submission, position, transitional grip and set up for a whole of other subs. If you want to learn it or even if its already a primary attack in your game - do yourself a favor and study this instructional. Ps I learnt my best high percentage triangle setup from side control in this vid. Was worth forbthis setup alone.
Some good head attacks
Gives great options for setups and finishing for people who love squishing peoples heads.
Helped me very much with my Arm Triangles. My Pressure game has become so much better in Training. He is an amazing Teacher.
This is a full deconstruction of a difficult technique along with several different paths to setting it up and adjustments for finishing it.
Fabulous instructions! It help me a lot with useful and effective techniques Thanks for sharing amazing techniques and knowledge!
This really helped my arm triangle game, going through the techniques in the classic Neil Melanson way.
I love this submission but wanted to learn how to apply it properly instead of cranking. This plus some Ryan Hall tutorials on arm triangles have greatly helped me make this my main attack as a white belt. The games and different ways of getting to an arm triangle has been really great. I love the kesa gatame option! Easy to understand technicalities and I still go back to the videos from time to time and discover things I didn't absorb before.
grapevine details to adjust the choke are awesome
awesome details
it gives you exactly what you would expect from the title... neil never miss
This is the 3rd instructional of Neil's I've purchased. Easy to understand, clear and concise. Camera angles are great. His techniques and tidbits have upped my ability to initiate and finish the move, and I love the other options he provides. His sense of humor is also hilarious.
Neil is incredible!
Many training partners including me also have been quite uncertain when doing arm triangle. Has it been a neck crank or has it been strangle? Sometimes both or sometimes neither. Following Neil's instructions I quickly learned effective way to do the arm triangle and been also able to teach it to my training partners. Now I can do it quite easily with one hand. Strong recommendation for this!
Neil really breaks down and understands choke mechanics. Getting a north south choke with long arms has always been a struggle but Neil shows different ways to get the choke that finally make the choke work, plus way more chokes, strangles and cranks
Great concepts on understanding how to properly secure the choke. I've already begun utilizing it! Highly recommend.
Great video
Phenomenal.
Neil does a great job really breaking down the arm triangle. My ability to arm triangle has gotten dangerous since watching this.
I’ve watched every video Neil has put out and I use the subs in this video the most.
Neil gives excellent points on finishing mechanics for the arm triangle. if you struggle finishing this technique, this ones for you!
I learn something new in the first 30 minutes of all of his videos!
there are some nice set ups and also a lot of useful tips for guard passing and some great control positions for mma. very useful stuff from Neil I was playing around with some techniques from the series and I really liked them.
Awesome
