Key steps

  1. Reach your head-side arm beneath their neck and take a deep hold of the far collar.
  2. Get their near arm out of play by pushing it aside or trapping it with your body.
  3. Rest your free forearm across their throat.
  4. Keep the collar fixed and drive the elbow of your top arm downward to finish.

Key details

  • Set the collar grip as deep as you can before the forearm goes in.
  • Keep your chest heavy so they can't turn in to you.
