Executing an arm drag from mount using a two-on-one grip:

  1. Begin in a neutral or intermediate mount, with hips slightly advanced and knees wide, feeling for the opponent's hand configuration against your chest.
  2. Identify if the opponent's hands are even or stacked, and choose to attack the top arm if they are stacked, or either arm if they are even.
  3. Use the same two-on-one grip as previously shown, with palm up and elbows tight, to break one of the opponent's grips if necessary.
  4. Shift your weight to arm drag the opponent from mount, moving through three angles: parallel, perpendicular, and parallel again.
  5. If the opponent's arm moves, it may isolate the arm for an arm lock. If the opponent's arm is tight, move their body instead.
  6. Drag the opponent's arm and move your body to get your chest behind their tricep, maintaining a grip on the wrist to guide it.
  7. Use your toes on the mat to float your weight and prevent any elbow escape on the side you're controlling.
  8. Secure a Kimura grip and advance to an S-mount position, stepping your foot out and pulling the opponent's bottom shoulder towards you.
  9. Adjust your chest to stay behind the opponent's back, keeping your foot tight and head connected to their head.
  10. For a back take, step your heel on the opponent's inner thigh, adjust your body back, and pull their shoulder in to tip them over their remaining post.
  11. Drive forward with your chest, bringing the opponent with you, and pass your other hook to get the back, belly down.
  12. Control the opponent by keeping their knees off the mat to prevent them from building their base, and then attack the neck.
