This week, Gracie Barra brings you some Advanced Chokes to try in your game. Grandmaster Helio Gracie preferred the choke over the armlock – especially against a larger opponent. He said that a strong opponent can resist an armlock, and might even continue to fight after the arm was damaged. But if you strangle to blood flow to the brain, the opponent will go to sleep!
