(Image courtesy of ONE) ONE submission grappler and jiu-jitsu star frequently posts technical videos on her social media, and we're loving it. It's the most earnest way for professional athletes to give back to their fans. In her latest video, we saw the dashing and dangerous American grappler pull off a modified triangle choke. Check out the Instagram post below: "A sneaky triangle from the kimura setup on top that @smashpassjay taught. Always useful and basic techniques needed for the high level competition ?" One of the oldest and most effective tricks in combat is the art of misdirection. Danielle Kelly's Kimura lock set-up forced her opponent to defend the arm while in truth she was going to attack with a triangle choke. Even just by panning your opponent's attention towards one limb allows you to attack another without them knowing. Better start drilling this in the gym.
