What is not a shoulder lock?
-
Armbar
-
Americana
-
Kimura
-
Omoplata
Correct Answer
A. ArmbarExplanation
An armbar is not a shoulder lock because it primarily targets the elbow joint rather than the shoulder joint. In an armbar, the attacker controls the opponent's arm and applies pressure by hyperextending or hyperrotating the elbow joint, aiming to force a submission or cause injury. In contrast, shoulder locks such as the Americana, Kimura, and Omoplata specifically target the shoulder joint, applying pressure to manipulate and potentially dislocate or hyperextend the shoulder. Therefore, the armbar is the only option listed that does not directly target the shoulder joint.Rate this question:

Which technique is NOT allowed in the White belt?
-
Armbar
-
Triangle
-
Wrist Lock
-
Rear Naked Choke
Correct Answer
A. Wrist LockExplanation
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the White belt is the beginner level and certain techniques are restricted to ensure the safety of practitioners. The wrist lock is not allowed for White belts because it involves manipulating the wrist joint to cause pain or submission. Since beginners may not have developed the necessary control and understanding of joint manipulation, allowing wrist locks at this level could lead to injuries. Therefore, wrist locks are prohibited for White belts to prioritize their safety and facilitate a gradual progression in learning and mastering the fundamentals of the sport.Rate this question:

Which position can you not get a kneebar from?
-
Half guard top
-
Half guard bottom
-
Bottom mount
-
Bottom guard
Correct Answer
A. Bottom mountExplanation
In the bottom mount position, the person on the bottom is lying flat on their back with their opponent straddling them and controlling their upper body. This position does not provide the necessary leverage or control over the opponent's leg to apply a kneebar submission. Kneebar submissions typically require the person applying the submission to have control over their opponent's leg and apply pressure to the knee joint, which is not possible from the bottom mount position.Rate this question:

What is the correct way to do a straight armlock from full mount?
-
Your knees far apart and legs straight
-
The opponents thumb pointing down
-
Your hips far away from your opponent
-
Knees together and legs straight
Correct Answer

The correct way to do a straight armlock from full mount is to keep your knees together and legs straight. This position provides stability and control over the opponent's arm, making it easier to apply the armlock effectively. Keeping the knees together also prevents the opponent from escaping or bridging out of the submission. Additionally, having the legs straight allows for better leverage and pressure on the arm joint, increasing the chances of a successful submission.Rate this question:
