How Do You Do The Achilles Lock Used In Brazilian Jujitsu?
The Achilles lock is a Brazilian Jujitsu technique that forces the opponent into submission by controlling the foot and ankle. The force of an Achilles lock is on the ankle joint, causing tension in this dangerous Brazilian Jujitsu move that can potentially break the ankle. Bring your opponent to the ground from standing by reaching down and grabbing behind the ankle with both hands and pulling towards you swiftly. Use the blade of your right wrist to lift your opponent’s left ankle to the level of your chest. Position your opponent’s foot so that his toes are tucked into the armpit of your right arm as you continue to hold the ankle with the blade of your wrist. Execute the break from this position using your right wrist against the Achilles tendon of your opponent’s left ankle, or if your positioning is bad with the right arm use your left arm by bringing your left arm under the foot and grabbing your right bicep. Lift the ankle by bending at the waist to bring your body upright. Pus
