A little help with a technique name/video.

[Chris Ludington]

I can't for the life of me find the video where this technique was explained. But for as long as I can remember I have called this the peanut. It's when you are holding your opponent in full guard and you trap the arm (like a head an arm choke) and then you use that side to take the back.

Here is a link to Ziggy using it. I know I learned it as "The peanut" but I seriously don't know where that name came from.

**NOTE** I know in the system there is an Apollo Sweep but this is different.

The Peanut is with no arm in. It's a front side neck crank.

Looks like Prison Guard to me, but you're clearly thinking of some other name.

[Chris Ludington]

It could be prison guard and I just confused the name. Or it could be that when I learned it the person teaching me told me the wrong name. I can't remember. I have "known" this technique for a long time so there is no telling. It's driving me nuts though. I can't find one single video on the "peanut". But you'll be amazed at how many stupid fvcking videos there are on peanut butter.

as far as i know, The Peanut is something that originated at our gym. i'm sure plenty of people use the technique, but i know the name started with us.
