If you missed this INSANE Buggy Choke submission in the Combat Jiu Jitsu Worlds final, you have to get on UFC Fight Pass and watch the entire CJJ Tournament!

Kade Ruotolo (who is only 17 years old, by the way) pulled this off against one of the toughest jujitsu competitors in the world, PJ Barch. And honestly it was a match that Kade was on his way to losing! Just an amazing, clutch submission by a great and humble young man!

I happened to be hanging out in the hotel with Kade Tye Ruotolo, Pearl Gonzalez, and a few others after CJJ Worlds, and I knew I had to get Kade to breakdown this buggy choke for you guys.

I hope you find this helpful, and don’t forget to subscribe!

North South choke is considered one of the most difficult chokes to master in all of Jujitsu.

He understands how to troubleshoot the common problems people run into when attempting this choke & we’ve put all of his ideas into an easy to understand INSTRUCTIONAL that even the smaller guys will be able to learn from and quickly develop a NASTY North South Choke.

When I was first learning the arm triangle, I remember struggling so much. And then eventually I began to understand it and it became my best sub. I thought.

I had a neck issue that exposed my poor technique and I had to start from scratch learning how to arm triangle with good posture and clean mechanics. So listen closely.

This will help fix some common problems people have when they try to set up ARM TRIANGLE CHOKES (also known as a Side Choke or a Head and Arm Choke) on good practitioners.

ZERO SQUEEZE required for the finish & if you’re doing this right, you can even finish it one handed.

This is probably why you keep losing the back position in BJJ.

Here’s a detail a lot of people don’t think about when they attack KNEEBARS.
It will be a LOT easier to get an efficient finish with this submission if you can stretch your opponents HAMSTRING, not just hyper extend the knee.
BMAC is here to help demonstrate a KNEEBAR from the RUSSIAN COWBOY position & how to make the kneebar EASY to finish.

BMAC talks the proper TIMING to set up the DOG FIGHT position
& how we use our opponents desire to grab our head to help make this movement easy.
The DOGFIGHT is a super common position in Jiu Jitsu & Wrestling.
Having these tips will make your entry AND sweeps so much easier to pull off.

BMAC is back to talk the use of TOE HOLDS to counter LEG LOCKS in various positions.
The “SMOOTH CRIMINAL” is a sneaky but BRUTAL counter to the standard ASHI GARAMI.
Be careful when practicing this, don’t do it to the white belts
& white belts shouldn’t do it to anyone!
Stay safe & take care of your training partners!

Can you escape this LEG LOCK position?
A lot of the HEEL HOOK finishes we see lately seem to be coming from this position, the Cross Ashi (Honey Hole) & if you end up this deep in the position, you’re running out of options.

BMAC is here with a LAST MINUTE HEEL SLIP escape you can try if you feel like you’re out of options.

What separates those with the ability to submit white/blue belts from those with the ability to submit purple/brown/black belts?

It’s the use of attacking systems.

Without a system with clearly defined paths, you will struggle to submit even intermediate level opponents.

The North South Attacking system was designed to keep me one step ahead of my opponent. I want to keep opponents in a constant dilemma, where each choice leads them one step closer to being submitted.

– Tired of trying the same 3 submissions from North/South?
– Feeling lost on how to take the next step offensively in your game?

– Looking for a Systematic approach to attacking from North/South?

This instructional is for you!

BMAC is back to talk about using the KNEE TAP from the DOG FIGHT position to set up the KHABIB GRIP.
This grip is a powerful grip that allows you to use your own body weight combined with your opponents bodyweight to trap their arm.
You’ll find this grip in a bunch of spots when your opponent bases on their elbow.
People don’t want to be on the ground with UFC Lightweight Champ Khabib Nurmagomedov so they’re options?
Try post on their elbow and begin to get up (Bad move)
Or expose their back (Also a bad move)
You will see Khabib use this grip in a majority of his fights.

Nekiaya Jackson (Kiaya J) is way smaller than me, but she is a beast, and she is probably my favorite training partner right now. Since she is so much smaller than me, you can see that I don’t try to crush her with my weight (most of the time lol); generally I elect to stay on bottom or just play. Nekiaya is great at this kind of training, which I think is the most important type. You need a certain spirit and a certain belief in the process to train this way, though. As well as a high measure of self-confidence.

I want to build a spirit of play and joy in my students and I try to express that in myself; in my style of training. In my approach to problem solving. In my business. In my interactions off the mats. I want to model joy and fun for my students.

I feel that this is the best way to build life long martial artists, and to build students who yearn to examine the art deeply. I was very blessed that my first teacher, Jamie Webster, really drove that home to me. We want to train in a way that makes us want to train every day. Because that’s how you get good. There are no secret moves or secrets to training. There’s just the mat hours. Find training partners that help you get mat hours, and find a style that makes you eager to get on the mats every single day.

Kiaya is currently in the midst of a streak of dominating her competition here in the Southeast. I fully believe she is gonna be the BJJ Black Belt World Champion one day! Check out her YouTube channel here and make sure you subscribe! https://youtu.be/XLVTduk9C-M
