New white belt here, THANK YOU, the clearest break downs of what to practice to progress. THANK YOU. In 7 minutes I feel like I have learned more than in most of the grappling I have watched. New fan for sure.
Great video, this was built into my game, however seeing it done from step to step is awesome, especially when the guy holds the leg (which happens all the time). Thanks for sharing!
After watching a lot of your videos, I can conclude that you are my hero. I'm learning at an academy that teaches old school Gracie Jiu Jitsu. The techniques taught in our basics class assume the opponent does not know any Jiu Jitsu and just want to punch your head in. But there is no bunches in open mat, so those basics techniques are useless. Your version of arm bar from mount is far less awkward than trying to step through directly with a posted leg. I can pause in s mount and work on breaking the grip first. And it's much easier to swing the leg once your are already perpendicular to the opponent. I wish I can visit you at Tristar one day.
Excellent video, I pulled this off during sparring today. I've been taught this numerous times but this video made it click. I hope you do seminars in the Los Angeles area soon. Thank you very much.
Loved this tutorial/video. You explain and demonstrate things so well. I'm curious if you ever made a video where you demonstrated finishing the triangle. I did not see one amongst you posts. I'm trying to put this all together. Thank you for all you do.
Great video the details are well explained these are my favorite online ju jitsu instructional videos I feel my game is more advanced from watching and reviewing I give Tristar a five star.
+Tristar Gym I'm a south paw so if you could do a striking video on tricks for right handers on dealing with us many people who are not lucky like me would benefit from it greatly and so will I ofcourse.
Great Video Firas, I appreciate your "Quality" knowledge in all aspects of fighting. Btw Asim my friend is training with you for a few weeks before his fight. I spoke very well of you to him:)
Thank you for everything that you are doing. Your teaching is very accessible and very clear. One nit...the vowel combination "Ai" as in "Aikido" is always pronounced "Eye" rather than "Ah" so that the art is pronounced "Eye Key Dough". Thanks again for all your efforts. I, and many others, appreciate it very much. Fwiw...
Was a pleasure learning from you again. Look forward to the next seminar of yours I can attend. I did have a question about escaping a difficult position though. When your opponent has you in a stapler and also a gift wrap grip on you. Thanks again, love the knowledge on the channel.
Firas, Is there a difference when I put my leg not over the back of his head but more my knee behind his shoulder keeping pressure and the leg is more on his back. Do you have a preference with that also to setup the triangle ?
Beautiful simplicity always Firas - Question: my big clown feet often get stuck when I attempt this setup, especially when wearing shoes - do you think I should go for a shoulder lock instead, or am I missing a bump motion somewhere...?
dosage13 When I first was exposed to the 10th Planet system, I thought all the names were a little silly. However, once I began teaching jiujitsu, I began to appreciate all of Bravo's terminology.
Hello Coach Zahabi, first of all: I love your videos. Your insights are profound and the way you can analyze technique and explain it is just overwhelmingly good. However, here is the question: You are throwing your leg across his neck, and like you said, it does not prevent posture. I remember Ryan Hall saying on his triangle DVD that you should keep your leg on the hips, so you can maintain your attack angle. What do you think is better? Thanks for all the advice! If you ever come to germany for a seminar I will surely be there.
Thanks for the videos!! it is really improving my jiujitsu! i just have 1 question...Where is the next part of this video? you say in this video that there will be a second part and i cant find it :(
Great video and details. Thank you. One thing, though: After the hip escape, I'm sometimes having trouble keeping his arm between my elbow and hips (-->triangle gone). Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?
It's tough bc I'm a white belt but I got a year of wrestling so I'm picking up sooo much trying to play top all the time then I'm worried I'm going to be bad at the bottom and won't have solid escapes a lot to worry about I want a solid triangle
Firas, what if the opponent grab you shin instead of the thigh? I was in this situation many times, and it's a big problem, especially if the opponent is stronger than me.
Firas, are you able to make the follow up to this video (actually going into the triangle) as you promised? :) I actually achieved clamp guard on a much more experience grappler recently, and I was shocked at how effective it was. However, I wasn't sure how to transition properly into the triangle... I am dying to know what I should do after I get clamp guard!
Hey! That's awesome! Not Firas, but after crossing your legs from clamp guard you could move your arm that's in the collar tie to grab the shin for a temporary triangle hold while you get your other leg in position to clamp for a triangle :) From there you don't need to hold the shin with your hand anymore and you could hold down on the head for extra pressure!
+Tristar Gym great advice and videos ..i usually like the rubberguard going into hindu control than the stock to triangle..but without the arm to the mat my rubberguard is defeated with the technique you've shown before on how to ground n pound..thank you so much for the great advice and videos again..thanks for helping us ametures out lol.

This is probably one of the safest transitions to triangle for street fights. I've been looking for something like this for so long. Thanks.
43 year old new white belt here. Really appreciate the detailed technical analysis. Best on TH-cam.
More importantly: do you still train? haha
Where you at bro?
Love this transition to the triangle!!! Your explanations are second to none!
Much thanks!
Thank you for putting a lot of voice-over details into this technique!

Hey its Mr. Robin Black!!! Thanks for the great Vid Firas!
I was there!! Thanks Firas was a great seminar!
Thanks Prof. Firas, always a pleasure learning from you. My favourite submission. Salam from Qatar.
Love the way you collect the arm, I've been waiting for my opponent to make a mistake so I can catch an arm exposed. Great Video.
Loved this tutorial/video. You explain and demonstrate things so well. I'm curious if you ever made a video where you demonstrated finishing the triangle. I did not see one amongst you posts. I'm trying to put this all together. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for posting your videos. The way you explain and break down moves is very helpful!
Thanks Firas. I eagerly await the finish to the submission.
Genius as always Firas
Love the details Firas , thank you
as always:great teaching and wonderful explanation

Great video the details are well explained these are my favorite online ju jitsu instructional videos I feel my game is more advanced from watching and reviewing I give Tristar a five star.

Love your videos. Thank you so much for making them

amazing explanation thanks a lot
This is fantastic!
This is tremendous.
Pushing of his neck thanks I have always wounderd where do you generate the power from
well done, keep it up, much appreciated
Firas, Is there a difference when I put my leg not over the back of his head but more my knee behind his shoulder keeping pressure and the leg is more on his back. Do you have a preference with that also to setup the triangle ?
Great video firas! Will there be any videos on how to beat bjj w/wrestling anytime soon?
Firas the best
Beautiful simplicity always Firas - Question: my big clown feet often get stuck when I attempt this setup, especially when wearing shoes - do you think I should go for a shoulder lock instead, or am I missing a bump motion somewhere...?
Did you ever post a video on finishing the triangle? In the video you mentioned it, if you did post it can you provide the link? Thanks so much!
eddie bravo teaches something similar called the meathook, look into it! your channel is amazing firas, big fan
thanks for the vids.. eddie bravo calls this position the pyramid btw.

Thanks for the videos!! it is really improving my jiujitsu!
i just have 1 question...Where is the next part of this video? you say in this video that there will be a second part and i cant find it :(
Great video and details. Thank you. One thing, though: After the hip escape, I'm sometimes having trouble keeping his arm between my elbow and hips (-->triangle gone). Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?
Hello!,
I the event that I am unable/allowed to use the fingers to (which the apparent is using to defend), what alternative(s) are there?
Thanks!
Hey Coach, is there a follow up to this video?
is that robin black at 2:53 sitting to the right?
frank pipo yes it, he trains there often.
Beautiful
How do i take my opponent's sock off? Just one preferably his right one?
hahahahaha yeah wtf?!
Go in for Ashi Garame, Toe hold then just take the sock off.
Take the back, rear naked choke them to sleep. Now you have enough time to remove the sock.
definitely don't take off the wrong sock
Firas did you ever post the triangle finishing video?
It's tough bc I'm a white belt but I got a year of wrestling so I'm picking up sooo much trying to play top all the time then I'm worried I'm going to be bad at the bottom and won't have solid escapes a lot to worry about I want a solid triangle
This is exactly what I need to add to my game. My biggest weakness is the speed of my hip escape.
Very helpful. Thx
Is this good to go to is you're in guard and your opponent is try to get super close to your chest?
Awesome.....thanks heaps
Robin Black is at the seminar
is part 2 (finishing the triangle) still in the making?
Thanks Mr Zahabi. Can you please make a video on preventing Gi submissions, i've been getting caught them alot :(!!
+Paremco will try
Knowing both gi and no-gi style defenses to submissions is important.
Thanks my brother
The Lord bless you .
Firas, what if the opponent grab you shin instead of the thigh? I was in this situation many times, and it's a big problem, especially if the opponent is stronger than me.

Whats the link to part two?
Love it!
wish you could make a video on how to finish it :(
Thanks Firas great video, you are a champion :)
I hope you have had a chance to look at the 5 clips I sent you.
+hubobubo yes I did thank you the problem was you filmed it in portrait and not landscape so can't use the footage. please re-shoot
Thank you for the feedback. I will get new footage as soon as possible.
Any update on "email list for my unlisted videos and the chance to win Free Quest nutrition give aways."?
whats the advance triangle set up that u like or just this one?.
This attacks plus many more details. Of course there are countless ways to get to triangle.
what stops a sweaty opponent from ducking out? especially if they're stacking u?.
+Brent Luder if he pulls out or ducks out sit up and arm drag or flow to your open Guard attacks
+Brent Luder If he stack you push down on his head and shrimp back. Keep you back straight and shrimp back using your shoulders.
+Tristar Gym great advice and videos ..i usually like the rubberguard going into hindu control than the stock to triangle..but without the arm to the mat my rubberguard is defeated with the technique you've shown before on how to ground n pound..thank you so much for the great advice and videos again..thanks for helping us ametures out lol.
stacking just makes the triangle tighter in the end
Grap the fingers? is that legal in bjj???
+frank01193 Perfectly legal. Grab all 4 fingers and your ok.
What happens if people like wrestlers just holding you down being tight
I don't see a the triangle finish.
2:43
...it looks like ur using the elbow on the ground not the collar to push out your hips
You didn't explain where your opponents arms have to be. This technique is hard to teach properly.
why do i get the feeling as tho that buff chick in the backgorund cud take me
