The arm crunch, or ude gatame if you like the Japanese words, is an extremely useful, quick and deceptive submission in its own right. However, it can also be used to set up great opportunities for sweeps and transitions to other submissions, as well. In this video, I show the fundamental mechanics of the arm crunch, as well as using it for the following purposes:

– Hiza Gatame from Butterfly Guard
– Triangle Choke (Sankaku Jime) Transition
– Sumi Gaeshi Sweep from Butterfly
– Heel Hook from Backside 50/50 Set Up
– Application from Kesa Gatame

Big Thanks to Ed Stahl from @metrolinamartialarts for the uke skills!

Is this the most powerful grip for takedowns in the gi? It is hard to argue otherwise. Here are a couple of options from my friend, Michael McInally of @SticksandStonesBJJ. If you want to see my takedowns and counters to this grip, make sure to head over to Michael’s channel here @SticksandStonesBJJ after watching this one for the second part of this collaboration. And be sure to let me know your thoughts on this grip and these takedowns.

The hook sweep (also known as the butterfly sweep and/or sumi gaeshi) is the most important sweep in your arsenal against kneeling opponents. It consists of 5 basic steps…
1, Secure your grips (typically an overhook and an underhook)
2, Tuck the foot on your overhook side under your leg on the underhook side
3, Fall sideways onto your shoulder
4, Lift with your hooking leg (which is on the underhook side), and
5, Drive off your bottom leg for more power.

Typically you’re going to end up in side control or broken scarf hold position (aka kuzure kesa gatame) but sometimes you can also go directly to mount.

Check out the hit instructional ‘BJJ for Old F***s’ at https://www.grapplearts.com/oldguard. It’ll help you crush and dominate those younger, stronger, more athletic grapplers who currently ragdoll you on the mat like a grappling dummy!

Back in 2005, I had a match in Grapplers Quest with Luke Stewart, a notable brown belt at the time. I noticed he tried to sweep me with a body lock from his guard, and had me in some trouble. Fortunately, my wrestling base allowed me to defend it and I went on to win that match.

But, I always study my matches the next day. So I watched, and saw what he was doing. I hadn’t seen anyone else try this before, and I started working on it. Soon enough, I was able to adjust it and make it work exceptionally well, and even came up with a series of sweeps from the guard body lock.

The first is the one he tried to get me with, the Sumi Gaeshi. What makes this body lock position work so well is that you are going to cinch up your opponent’s arms over their head – eliminating their posting arms. We then work a little leg magic to sneak in a butterfly hook and voila – sweep city. We can then take advantage and get a high mount and work right into an arm bar.

Continuing from the last technique, sometimes your opponent freaks out when you start the Kimura from the back body lock and tries to get in front of you to perhaps run a double. You can then switch out to the Sumi Gaeshi.
