Understanding Choke Categories
Chokes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can be classified into several categories: blood chokes, air chokes, compression chokes, and cranks. Blood chokes involve compressing the carotid arteries to reduce blood flow to the brain, while air chokes obstruct the windpipe or cover the mouth. Compression chokes restrict lung expansion, and cranks attempt to damage the neck by pushing it beyond its natural range of motion. Notably, many chokes do not fit neatly into these categories, often resulting in hybrid chokes that incorporate elements from multiple types, challenging the idea of a 'clean' choke.
