Anytime you're in Side control, you need to avoid getting put into head and arm control and put flat on your back. Knee on Belly, happens all the time and you just have to start getting good at removing the (KOB). Shrimp away, address the foot placement, check the knee and the hips, and you should be able to get out. Guy's with amazing KOB have good armlock set ups and even slicker transitions from there to assorted chokes, and positions. They know how to put the pressure on you to steer you down the path they want.Quote:

"The Ghost" is my go to, when they have head and arm. This escape is a must. Drill the hell out of it and you'll be hitting it from many different angles.Quote:
