Rob Biernacki shares 2 proven methods using leverage to defend against (and hopefully escape) fully applied armbars in BJJ, no gi grappling and MMA. We cover how Vinny Magalhaes survived Fabricio Werdum’s vicious armbar at ADCC 2011, the hitchhiker escape, and the technique Roger Gracie used to escape Buchecha’s armbar at Metamoris 1.
