The Achilles Ankle Lock & The Knee Bar

I had initially planned to write a post regarding both the 'Achilles Ankle Lock' and the 'Knee Bar' but then I remembered Stephen Kesting's GrappleArts website already has a fantastic article dedicated to each of these techniques.

I'd be depriving you if I tried to explain the techniques myself when there is already a much better resource available. So here are the links:

Personally, I find that the Achilles Lock is far too easily countered for me to go for it. The Knee Bar is an effective move but quite a difficult one to apply in my opinion.
