About this video
Executing the Omoplata from Spider Guard:
- Begin with your training partner standing. Remove the bottom hook and place your foot on their hip.
- Lift your hips and pinch your knee on their shoulder. This setup is similar to the triangle, but switch to the Omoplata if they control your pants leg.
- Bridge your hips up, pinch your knee on their shoulder, and punch their hand to your back pocket. Drag your leg over their shoulder and lock a triangle around it.
- Reach up to their lower back, bring your knees and ankles together, and extend your legs to rock up to a seated position.
- Slide knee to knee, ankle to ankle, and squeeze your knees. Rock up to your butt, post on your hand, and scoot your butt back.
- Reach your arm far over their hip, scoot out, and pull them down to their belly.
- Fold your legs out in a 90-90 position, sit forward, and make an S-grip or palm-to-palm grip around their far shoulder. Use your hips to bring their hand towards the back of their head.
