Question for you grappling gurus out there....

[steve_langford]

Last night while training I kept getting stacked everytime I locked in a triangle or arm-bar from guard!!!

Is there a way of neutralizing this? It gets thrustrating as hell!

please help?

hook a leg,should stop them from stacking/standing up you as you could sweep them. Also make sure your at right angles to them as this will mean they can't ut as much pressure on yer neck.

makes sense mate , thanks.

The main problem was when I was setting up the triangle , before I had even locked my legs , boom! ........ stacked!

Just did a session with wolfpack mate

Same happens to me a lot. Angles are the key just mine are a bit shit

Yep angles and flexibility. Drill rolling your legs behind your head, then to each side. This is not dis-similar to being stacked and will help with flexibility.

angle to the side

Grab a ball and squeeze. He'll want to move away a bit after that.

Something I seen on a Ryan Hall clip which helped me alot was walking your shoulders back as your being stacked, seems really obvious but it made a difference to my success rate with triangles. If you can walk your shoulders back maintaining head control and obviously look for the angle and hook the leg you should get the tap!
