Nick Albin, in BJJ Community widely known as “Chewy”, is a black belt who currently teaches/trains BJJ full time and is the head instructor at Derby City Mixed Martial Arts in Louisville, KY.
Recently he had 2018 IBJJF World Champ Mahamed Aly out to train in his gym to train and do some videos. In this video Mahamed shows a series of slick submission options when you’re having trouble finishing the Armbar from top position. These submission options not only give you the ability to finish the roll or match, but they also allow you to have greater control and make your opponent super uncomfortable.
This video shows several simple BJJ techniques from a common position. Everyone who has done Brazilian Jiujitsu at some point has struggled to finish an Armbar. And make sure to stick around for the end as Mahamed and Chewy share a few thoughts about the training and developing a deeper, more complex Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game.
