What is armbar?

Armbar is a type of martial arts technique that primarily hyperextends the opponent's elbow. In sports, such as mixed martial arts (MMA), Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and wrestling shooting, this technique is only applied with sufficient pressure to cause discomfort, and then slowly increased into intensity until the opponent is provided. For this reason, this is considered a technique of filing. Combatal disciplines such as Gracie Ji-Jitsu and the system of modern army of the US Army also use this technique to weaken opponents in life or death situations.

Armbar is most often applied in a specific way. The opponent's arm is placed between the legs of the attacker with his palm from the attacker. The arms are held in place against the body of the attacker near the wrist. The arms are then pulled down against the attacker's body and straightened and the hips of the attacker are pulled forward against the opponent's arm and elbow. This position is significantly burdened with the elbow joint of the arm bone and can eventually lead to hyperextensi or broken bones. Legs and legs attackThey can be placed through the opponent's chest for further hold and lever.

Armbar is a very heavy technique to face. The primary armbar defense is to keep the elbow bent and pull out the arm that is attacked/out of the opponent's legs before the submission can be fully applied. The arm attacked by both hands can slow down the application of technology, but can usually be overcome over time. Once the technique is applied, mixed combat artists often try to slam the person who applies the administration to the mat and compress them before it can fully extend. In competitions such as tournaments that are facing a subordinate where slamning is not allowed, defenders often try to turn over so that the point of their elbow is from the attacker's body, allowing the elbow to be properly bent when the pressure is exerted.

One of the most famous Armbars in mixed martial arts appeared on UFC® 48 on 19 June2004. In the match with heavy weight between Tim Sylvia and Frank Mir Mir put Sylvia in the army. Sylvia resisted, tried to escape, and eventually broke the arms when the holding was tightened. Although most viewers did not see the initial break, playback of slow movement showed that Sylvi's arm of the strut and then vaulted as the bone broke.

Armbar is known under many different names. In judo is called gatame; In Wrestling, Armorbreaker. The version in which the attacker jumps on the opponent and applies the technique partly in the air is called flying shoulders. Armbars are also considered a type of arm chateau and sometimes called this name.
