If a person doesn't speak Japanese, there is no need to use the Japanese name for things. Translate that Japanese name for the technique and what do you get?
@@Spiritof_76 reverse arm entanglement? I don't think American lock or Americana helps either unless you practice BJJ. Referring to the root art can sometimes help to clarify things.
@@moqo From what I see in the USA, there are way more people doing bjj than judo. I'd prefer someone just telling me "Americana" than reverse arm entanglement when I'm doing this technique. Danaher has that professorial asperger's way of using certain terminology.
Pretentious waffle. He renamed Catch wrestling leg locks with Japanese names and now this. John’s brilliant , its undeniable but for a guy who values history and the martial arts he doesnt half do his best to erase it.
Placido low key fighting for his life
The American AHHHHHHH lock!
Anglophones whinging for decades about him using Japanese names now whinge about him using English lol
'American Lock' has got to be Danaher's most diabolical attempt at a name change yet. We, as a community, must not accept.
no time to say that one last A of the americanA!!!
Let's make Jiu Jitsu great again
Everyone knows it’s called the paintbrush!😂
Or, we each use whatever name we want as we've always done?
he goes out of his way to deny Brazilian contributions to the sport
Umm, it's not the American lock. it's called a gyaku ude garami (逆腕絡み) XD.

My boy at 3:01 about get a neck cracked! He’s thinking, “Danaher you’re killing me!”

We are calling it the american lock now?

Never say arm bar then
Poor uke has had enough retakes of this instructional
So Danaher, what would this "American lock" be called in a foreign language I will never speak?
Yeah, weird that he didn't call this by its judo name.
