The Nelson neck crank uses a half-nelson or full-nelson position to drive the opponent's chin toward their chest (flexion) or force the head sideways, creating cervical spine pressure. [1,2] In the fu...

The three-quarter nelson crank from turtle applies a nelson variant where the attacker controls approximately three-quarters of the neck-cranking pathway — more than a half nelson but less than a full...

The nelson neck crank from front headlock is applied by threading one or both hands behind the opponent's neck from the front headlock position and driving the head downward into cervical flexion whil...

The rear neck crank from back without hooks is a cervical-spine submission applied from a partial back position — chest-to-back contact established, but no hooks or body triangle. [1] Rather than rely...
