Do you know what to do to finish the Rear Naked Choke when your opponent sinks his chin in and defends his neck at all costs?
Craig Jones is one of the best No Gi Jiu-Jitsu players on the planet, so it’s no surprise that he’s also one of the most popular coaches in the sport.
In a recent video posted by BJJ Fanatics, we saw a clip of Jones’s “Wrestling Equation” instruction. In the video, Jones explains how to complete the RNC if the defensive player retracts his chin, you then apply a “mandible choke.”
Jones stated: “I’m trying to get under the chin, but if he tucks it, it’s hard for us to get what a lot of people would consider a clean choke. But in reality, you’re choking the carotid arteries and when he tucks his chin, he’s not actually protecting his carotid arteries…”
“I want to bring both of my elbows towards his pec, and then I apply downwards pressure to get that submission. We can still strangle Placido through his chin as long as we have downwards pressure and slightly across to his pec.”
