- Guillotine choke
The guillotine choke is a
chokehold inmartial arts applied from in front of the opponent. The choke involves using the arms to encircle the opponent's neck in a fashion similar to aguillotine . The technique is either a type of tracheal compression restraint that prevents air flow to the lungs, or a blood choke depending on how it is applied. When executed from the ground, the person applying it will try to control the opponent by the hips, for instance using a closed guard. This is done to prevent the opponent from escaping the hold, and to be able to apply additional pressure by extending the hips.This technique can cause
unconsciousness if done correctly. It is taught in variousgrappling martial arts, includingJujutsu ,Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ,Judo , as well as inmixed martial arts competition.[
