I'd be interested to read the thoughts of an accomplished grappler on the importance of squeezing the knees or legs together when applying the arm bar. Last week was the first week that I seemed to notice that when applying- or receiving- an armbar it feels much tighter/better when the legs squeeze together at the same time as extending the elbow.
Does anyone have thoughts on the importance of the legs- or other details aside from just cranking the arm (ie- one other thing I learned was when applying the AB frm the bottom, flexing the top leg on the opponents head improves things as well...)
Thanks,
