About this video

Securing an inside heel hook involves controlling the opponent's leg to prevent any slack that could reduce breaking pressure. The bottom foot's placement is flexible; it can be foot over foot, X-Guard, or on the far hip, as long as there is backward pressure on the inner thigh to maintain the leg's external rotation. The key is to lock the opponent's foot in place while pushing on the inside of their knee to achieve the break.

  1. Ensure backward pressure is applied to the opponent's inner thigh to keep their leg in external rotation.
  2. Lock the opponent's foot in place to prevent any movement that could create slack.
  3. Maintain tension with the legs to hold the opponent's leg firmly, not allowing it to move inward.
  4. Perform a hamstring curl against the opponent's thigh while holding the big toe tendon against your pectoral.
  5. Close your knees and bridge in to separate the top part of the opponent's leg from the bottom part, completing the heel hook submission.

It's crucial to keep tension and control throughout the technique to effectively apply the submission without allowing the opponent's knee to move, which would decrease the breaking pressure.
