The triangle choke is one of the most common and also one of the highest percentage submissions in Grappling.
When executed perfectly, it is a powerful weapon which is very hard to escape.
There are so many micro adjustments that make it so much more effective. This is what some grapplers such as Rickson Gracie call “Invisible” details.
BJJ black belt world Rafael Lovato Jr shows two important and often overlooked adjustments that will make a world of difference in the control and viciousness of your triangle choke:
1. breaking the posture
2. Knee pinch.
Rafael Lovato Jr made history when he became the 3rd American to win the IBJJF World Championship in the black belt division and he also became the first non-Brazilian to win the Brazilian National Championship (2007) as a black belt.
