Marcio “Macarrao” Stambowsky Shows A Fast Armbar From Closed Guard

The Cross Collar Choke is probably one of the first submissions you’ve learned on your BJJ journey – perhaps even the first one. However, as you and your training partners gain some experience, setting up and then finishing the Cross Collar Choke often gets increasingly difficult. They start to defend by all means possible; one of them being by pushing against your armpits.

When that happens, you have an opportunity to go for an Armbar. The legendary Marcio Stambowsky demonstrates below.

Almost anytime your opponent stands up in your Closed Guard – while posting on your armpits – you have a chance for a quick Armbar.
Here’s how to set it up, as demonstrated by the legendary Marcio “Macarrao” Stambowsky:
