Armbar

An armbar is a submission hold used in martial arts and grappling, where a practitioner locks an opponent’s arm between their thighs, then applies pressure to hyperextend the elbow joint. The goal is to force the opponent to submit or risk injury, leveraging leverage and control. The position involves securing the arm securely while maintaining balance, making it difficult for the opponent to escape. It’s a technical move that combines precise positioning and timing, often used to dominate or neutralize an opponent during a match or training.
