Increase your submission percentage, master a whole new position, and find new and innovative ways to hunt the back with this brand new 2-volume crucifix instructional series from Thomas Lisboa.
After years studying under back attack masters like Marcelo Garcia, Lisboa has developed a tricky and effective system around getting to his crucifix back control and getting the submission, and now he is here showing every detail across these two volumes.
You don’t have to waste time and energy struggling against the same few frustrating positions. Now, hook your training partners and opponents up in this crucifix control that gives you way more control and way more options than the regular hooks.
The crucifix is a really underutilized way of controlling someone’s back. Instead of using your legs around the waist as hooks, you rotate and use your legs to control and isolate an arm.
This makes their arm vulnerable for submissions AND they can’t defend chokes as easily, making this position a real threat to anyone you put there. Thomas Lisboa is one of the best from here, having racked up a ton of victories by relying on it as a submission trap. See how he has been able to take a simple position and turn it into a reliable and razor-sharp submission chain as he walks you through his whole gameplan around getting the tap from the back.
Once you really understand how powerful the crucifix is, you will keep finding new and exciting ways to flow to it from your regular game. Once he has shown you the chokes and joint locks that he has had so much success with, Lisboa goes in depth into how he secures himself in the crucifix with tons of entries that you can start using today.
Anytime you see the back, you can apply a crucifix, and it flows so perfectly with kimura traps and guard passes that you can start adding it into your regular everyday sparring as soon as possible.
Change up your understanding of back control with Lisboa’s advice; you don’t need hooks around the body to control the back. The turtle, the crucifix, and your back attack series all work together to create the most dangerous threat possible. By really isolating the arms from the neck, this instructional set really creates a lot of problems for the people you are rolling with. If you have been looking for something a little different to help you break through a plateau in your training, grab ahold of an overlooked position and start learning the sequences and series that you can work through all the way to the tap.
The fact that everyone neglects this position will give you almost immediate success. Its simple, you have the knowledge. Not only will you learn entries, joint locks and chokes, Thomas will walk you throw the control points.
He will teach you exactly what your opponent's reactions will be and how to counter them easily. He will show you how to not only achieve the crucifix but maintain it. Once you get the position whether you submit your opponent or not won't even matter because they will be STUCK.
Thomas typically uses the crucifix position as an offensive attack but he has also developed a defensive system around it. Having trouble with the over under pass? Learn how to crucifix your opponent when they try this.
Thomas will show you how to find the crucifix both off of your back and while on top. This will become on of your main weapons and increase your submission percentage.
Another massive benefit of exploring this position is that you will be able to exploit your training partners weaknesses in both gi and no gi. The crucifix is an extremely versatile position that can be utilized with or without the gi. It is even great for self-defense.
