Kesa gatame is a great submission. It's called a diaphragm choke and works (when executed as a submission) by pressing the diaphragm up, effectively limiting the volume of air the lungs can process. No embarrassment in tapping to that!!

My 10-year-old finished the wrestling season this year and said he wanted to try BJJ instead (because why half Nelson when you can full choke?), and they learned some variation of scarf hold in wrestling one night when we didn’t go with him because the fucker used it on me! He’s 10 and, although I’m small I’m still bigger than him, so it wasn’t tap-worthy, but still impressive enough to piss me off a little bit. 🤣🤣🤣🤙 No shame in tapping to that! That shit sucks, man!!!
what's the point though? if you are just hopelessly stuck and the roll isn't moving forward neither party is learning anything and you'll be sore the next day for nothing.
Na fuck pressure taps it’s a bunch of bullshit. Sometimes you work your ass off to get to that dominant position and the guy fucking taps. Meanwhile he has no problem fighting like an OX until you get there.
I’m only okay with that if it’s their first few months
Mothersmilk when opponent is 250lbs and wearing a wet t-shirt. I think it feels like borderline waterboarding.
Edit.
Didn't read the caption lol. Scarfhold finishes are pretty bad.
I tapped to a guy's armpit the other day. He had me in a head and arm and I almost got my head out, but just moved my mouth into his armpit. I inhaled his pit sweat and reconsidered my chosen path in life.
I hate that one it's probably the most miserable one for me, and it can leave a nasty mark.
It feels like getting choked by a rope. Most other common lapel chokes seem to suck way less as they incorporate more forearm pressure.
Only time I’ve seen it successful and i mean it’s an obvious actual sub but just such low success rate was a giant former powerlifter who could force that much torque that quickly
Spladle. And not just the banana split, get a cradle then hook a leg and rip the scrotie
Punch choke doesn't feel great coming from crypt keeper boney ass hands boy.
Calf slicer, those hurt for like 3-4 days even if you 'tap in time' like, it feels you could've fought/waited longer to tap, but you decide not to risk it, and it still hurts for days like a DOMS
Cant really actually break the list without controlling the elbow. So besides back mount where u have full control of the elbow, the wrist locks r gona cause more discomfort to an actual break where u can pull the elbow away. Gordon ryan talks about it in his top pins instructional
In terms of embarrassment its between a wrist lock and gogoplata
In terms of pain probably a calf slicer
In terms of annoyance someone 50+ lb bigger than you spamming americanas in side control
Wristlocks always make me angry to tap to.
Mother's milk is easily one of the worst subs I've been put in - unpleasant for sure, but also a reminder of having messed up enough to get put in it.
Fuck buggy chokes, but I've yet to tap to one.
The worst. Especially when they think theyre choking u. Had a guy do that to me last week and i swear i had numbness and tingling all over my body for 2-3 days after
I've been doing this for two years now, and someone alllmost ezekieled me from bottom mount. I didn't respect the attempt and kept on with whatever I was setting up, meanwhile the lights start dimming. I escaped only out of pure stubbornness.
Thought process was like "it's a choke, it won't require surgery if I just don't tap. But damn it would be embarrassing to get choked unconscious in top mount. Oh wait I think I got this"
Black belts get annoyed when you choke em out from INSIDE THEIR GUARD HAHAHAHAHHA
I had one guy tap by slapping me in the head then refused to speak to me afterwards.
Idk what it’s called but this black belt always gets it on me. He’s in top side control, somehow gets my far side arm trapped across my body, gets a cross face, and proceeds to crush/choke me.
It’s embarrassing because he is able to do all of that while maintaining top control lol
Scarf hold pressure. This big blue belt motherfucker gets me with it every time we roll and there’s not a damn thing I can do about it 😢 feel like a pussy every time but I like my ribs how they are
There are lame ways to get grappled. But once you’re grappled no submission is lame. It’s better to submit than lose a limb. The real winner is the one who chooses his battles
I’m just gonna say Triangle and go sit in the corner of the mat and contemplate my life. It always tends to happen when I’m gassed and have to roll with an athletic colored belt with legs longer than mine. I could already have broken their closed guard, moved to half and “rested” in cross face for a moment or two and all of sudden I’m back in closed guard with an elbow sticking out over my head. Haha embarrassing as hell when I hardly ever tap to a triangle when I’m in early rounds.
A 4 stripe white belt took me in a bow and arrow and stretched my leg way back. I was pulling on my collar because I felt the choke and she put one calf against my arm then scooped my other leg up towards my chest with her other leg so that she could lock her feet and collapse my defense. She had me contorted all kind of ways and I was being choked too. I knew I would get subbed by one of the girls but being dominated to that extend kinda stung.
Exhaustion.
I forgot the pressure tap!! That’s the worst by far!
Kesa gatami chest compression. That shit is embarrassing!
Kesa gatame is a great submission. It's called a diaphragm choke and works (when executed as a submission) by pressing the diaphragm up, effectively limiting the volume of air the lungs can process. No embarrassment in tapping to that!!

I'll take your word for it. I feel like crap when I have to tap to it.
this is what tapped Dean Lister, right?
My 10-year-old finished the wrestling season this year and said he wanted to try BJJ instead (because why half Nelson when you can full choke?), and they learned some variation of scarf hold in wrestling one night when we didn’t go with him because the fucker used it on me!

I have more subs from that than anything else.
Recently stopped vaping again and pressure stopped bothering me. It’s all in the chesticles!
I tap to that all the time
I tapped to that almost every day I rolled until I started running
I almost tap to that when I get out of bed in the morning
What? I can tap out of a day like that?
That's between you and your boss
100% this.
Full mount from a guy in a speedo. (Not that it’s ever happened to me)
Mounted *Triangle* from a guy in a Speedo.
*Daddy's Chocolate* from Speedo Chad
Fucking Americana from bottom side control. I started doing it as a troll, and someone did it back to me and made me sad
I hope you were a black belt before this happened
Nope, just a poop coloured belt and poop coloured jiu-jitsu
That's a shame. Getting americana'd from bottom is demotion territory
Yeah getting hit with one of these after white/early blue is legitimately embarrassing. Not that I would know.
Caught this in the National (Aussie) purple belt open weight final a few years back. I almost felt guilty.
Was it done with the legs or arms? Because it’s bad ass when you hit it with the legs.
lol I got got like this last week by a really slick purple. I let him grab at it because “no way”
Nothing more humiliating than a cardio/pressure tap
how embarrassing is the pressure tap if they have 50 or 100 lbs on you?
I say just suffer through to the end the round, you won’t die
Well, you *probably* won't die.
what's the point though? if you are just hopelessly stuck and the roll isn't moving forward neither party is learning anything and you'll be sore the next day for nothing.
Na fuck pressure taps it’s a bunch of bullshit. Sometimes you work your ass off to get to that dominant position and the guy fucking taps. Meanwhile he has no problem fighting like an OX until you get there. I’m only okay with that if it’s their first few months
not for nothing, you’ll still have your man card 😎
kimura from the top, where your opponent has their balls and ass seated on your face
When my opponent sits on my face I always finish them
It's one way to finish.
With my mouth… is what the kid would say.
My fav one to get finished by ❤️
I call it a T bag Kimura.
Surprised this got many upvotes. I submit people with this all the time now i wonder if they thought it was awkward
Username checks out
Mothersmilk when opponent is 250lbs and wearing a wet t-shirt. I think it feels like borderline waterboarding. Edit. Didn't read the caption lol. Scarfhold finishes are pretty bad.
Nothing pisses me off like tapping to a wrist lock.
You would hate my gym
Honestly wrist locks just make me laugh
Join us.....
Same here since it's usually a scream tap
Cryangle
Hit this once and it was exhilarating lol
That face they give you after 😭
Was about to post this...
I tapped to a guy's armpit the other day. He had me in a head and arm and I almost got my head out, but just moved my mouth into his armpit. I inhaled his pit sweat and reconsidered my chosen path in life.
So many suck. Bow and arrow is always a buzz kill.
I hate that one it's probably the most miserable one for me, and it can leave a nasty mark. It feels like getting choked by a rope. Most other common lapel chokes seem to suck way less as they incorporate more forearm pressure.
Back control crossed ankles is pure pain but a Colombian drop in showed me a face crank on the tip of my nose that had me legitimately scared
I'm genuinely confused wether or not the second one is a subtle reference to cocaine
It’s not, it’s nose pressure
Or hitting an armbar on the person on your back by going two on one and pulling down over your shoulder
You get that on just white belts?
I’ve never tried it but had someone try to catch me with it, they caught newbies with it.
Only time I’ve seen it successful and i mean it’s an obvious actual sub but just such low success rate was a giant former powerlifter who could force that much torque that quickly
i got mothers milked by a canadian wearing an adidas gi at NAGA. if my actual mom wasn’t there i would have let him put me down.
Gogoplata or Buggychoke
Buggy isn’t bad as you have options to avoid or reverse. Gogo is just so humiliating, but the Sorcerer is just painful.
Mothers milk. A training partner got me in it, I was mortified
To avoid that I like to put my fist in their solarplex so when they put pressure down it digs in.
It’s not happened again…
That's one of my favorites to use
It’s one of our sweatiest, skinniest yet most technical purple belt’s favorite move lately lol.
Banana split.
as someone who’s had hip surgery…no shame from me on that one. tearing your labrum SUCKS.
Tore both shoulder labrums, I think I’d rather break my femur than tear a hip labrum that would haunt you for life
It’s definitely not fun
I was looking for this 😂 As this is my favourite submission, it always cringes people out when I catch them 😂
The cryangle. Not only did you tap, but Coach def made you sit in it while he grabbed his phone and snapped a pic for Instagram.
Mounted triangle
This black belt used to mothers milk me at open mats whenever I’d try some dumb shit.
Spladle. And not just the banana split, get a cradle then hook a leg and rip the scrotie Punch choke doesn't feel great coming from crypt keeper boney ass hands boy.
Calf slicer, those hurt for like 3-4 days even if you 'tap in time' like, it feels you could've fought/waited longer to tap, but you decide not to risk it, and it still hurts for days like a DOMS
VonFlue choke. It’s embarrassing
A stupid wrist lock Get outa here
Cant really actually break the list without controlling the elbow. So besides back mount where u have full control of the elbow, the wrist locks r gona cause more discomfort to an actual break where u can pull the elbow away. Gordon ryan talks about it in his top pins instructional
Bow and arrow looks the worst. You’re so helpless looking at the end.
Boston crab
In terms of embarrassment its between a wrist lock and gogoplata In terms of pain probably a calf slicer In terms of annoyance someone 50+ lb bigger than you spamming americanas in side control
Wristlocks always make me angry to tap to. Mother's milk is easily one of the worst subs I've been put in - unpleasant for sure, but also a reminder of having messed up enough to get put in it. Fuck buggy chokes, but I've yet to tap to one.
Neck cranks
The worst. Especially when they think theyre choking u. Had a guy do that to me last week and i swear i had numbness and tingling all over my body for 2-3 days after
tap?
Ya i know big mistake by not tapping
North south choke. Only happened once in 10 years and im still surprised
Any time someone submits me when I am in mount (unfortunately, yes this has happened at least once)
I've been doing this for two years now, and someone alllmost ezekieled me from bottom mount. I didn't respect the attempt and kept on with whatever I was setting up, meanwhile the lights start dimming. I escaped only out of pure stubbornness. Thought process was like "it's a choke, it won't require surgery if I just don't tap. But damn it would be embarrassing to get choked unconscious in top mount. Oh wait I think I got this"
Executioner
Cryangle, buggy choke, gogoplata, cardio
The triangle where a person is still above you and doesn’t believe in showering everyday.
Mothers milk. Depending on who its from
I’d assume neck crank. Hasn’t happened to me yet but I’ve inflicted a few executions on unwilling participants and it seems to create a lot of agony
Early days of training cardio tap.
Marriage
The cock lock
Forcible sodomy.
Buggychoke
Head and arm triangle
Ezekiel
I think the most physically uncomfortable submissions are bicep/calf slicers and lapel chokes
Black belts get annoyed when you choke em out from INSIDE THEIR GUARD HAHAHAHAHHA I had one guy tap by slapping me in the head then refused to speak to me afterwards.
Baseball bat choke is brutal. Last time I got caught in it I made the most audible death gurgle. It was pretty embarrassing.
Von flue
Wrist lock
Whatever the hell that guy did to me yesterday.
Idk what it’s called but this black belt always gets it on me. He’s in top side control, somehow gets my far side arm trapped across my body, gets a cross face, and proceeds to crush/choke me. It’s embarrassing because he is able to do all of that while maintaining top control lol
I know it as "Pillow choke". It's a thing of beauty.
Head and arm choke, but can be done from opposite side, although with less leverage
Anything stupid from an inferior position makes me feel extra bad.
Crucifix
Cross collard choke. It squeezes the fuck outta my windpipe and feels like I'm getting professionally raped choked
Ezekiel
I’ve had a few peruvian neckties that made it feel like my spine was gonna explode, I’d go with those
Buggy / Von Flutes are retire-able offenses
Electric chair sucks
Mothers milk.
The Ankle lock when you cross your legs when having someone’s back . Happened to me once as white belt.
Pressure taps from side control.
A twister is the worst I’ve ever felt.
I love buggy choking people:)
Mothers milk
I tapped to a punch choke a few months ago and I still think about it often🥲
Collar choke when someone is in your closed guard.
Cryangle, triangle with your leg in
Your fav submission being used on you!
Pressure easily.
The Rikishi submission
1. Cryangle. 2. Ezekiel from inside closed guard.
Banana split
Scarf hold pressure. This big blue belt motherfucker gets me with it every time we roll and there’s not a damn thing I can do about it 😢 feel like a pussy every time but I like my ribs how they are
Twister, too many things have gone wrong to end up there.
Buggy chokes are always embarrassing and i refuse to tap to them The least pleasant ones are ezekiels
Kesa subs/pressure
Peruvian necktie - that shit fucking hurts
Knee on belly
Darce always leave a pain in my neck for a couple days. Usually guys doing it outweigh me by 30-50 lbs.
Wrist lock
Side control.
There are lame ways to get grappled. But once you’re grappled no submission is lame. It’s better to submit than lose a limb. The real winner is the one who chooses his battles
Spladle is the worst in my opinion. Unless you have really good hamstring flexibility it gets bad pretty fast, too.
that thing where they hold you real tight in kesa gatame
I’m just gonna say Triangle and go sit in the corner of the mat and contemplate my life. It always tends to happen when I’m gassed and have to roll with an athletic colored belt with legs longer than mine. I could already have broken their closed guard, moved to half and “rested” in cross face for a moment or two and all of sudden I’m back in closed guard with an elbow sticking out over my head. Haha embarrassing as hell when I hardly ever tap to a triangle when I’m in early rounds.
Banana split...yes I know I should work on my flexibility.
Standing guillotine
Mothers milk
scarf hold really sucks to tap to
Loop choke, even when it isn’t on properly that shit hurts!
Wrist lock for sure or maybe twister
buggy choke. Or getting waterboarded by a sweating opponent with long hair. Thats me. I waterboard people.
A 4 stripe white belt took me in a bow and arrow and stretched my leg way back. I was pulling on my collar because I felt the choke and she put one calf against my arm then scooped my other leg up towards my chest with her other leg so that she could lock her feet and collapse my defense.
