Перевод: Fulcrum Headlock Choke (katakana loanword)
The fulcrum headlock choke from front headlock uses the attacker's own body structure — typically the hip bone or forearm — as a rigid fulcrum point against which the opponent's neck is bent and compressed. [1],[2] From the front headlock position, the attacker wraps the head and drives the opponent's neck over the fulcrum point while applying downward pressure with the chest and shoulders. [1] The fulcrum mechanics create both a choke and a cervical compression, making the technique a hybrid strangle-crank that attacks blood flow and spinal alignment simultaneously. [1],[2]
Fulcrum-based headlock chokes have roots in catch wrestling, where the front facelock was used as both a controlling hold and a finishing technique. [1],[2] The specific use of the body as a rigid fulcrum for neck compression distinguishes this technique from arm-only strangles and reflects the catch wrestling emphasis on using the entire body to generate submission pressure. [1] The technique has been adapted into modern no-gi grappling as a front headlock option. [1],[2]
Fulcrum headlock chokes provide an alternative to guillotines when arm wrapping is difficult — the direct bone pressure requires less arm threading. Effective with precise placement on the carotid groove. [1]
Catch wrestling heritage — the front headlock fulcrum bridges wrestling head control with direct pressure submission techniques. Integrated into modern front headlock systems by Danaher and others. [1]
Appears in catch wrestling, submission wrestling, and MMA competition. Less common than guillotines in BJJ but effective when guillotine defences are strong. [1]

The elbow-fulcrum headlock choke uses the point of the attacker's elbow as the primary fulcrum against the opponent's neck from a front headlock position. [1] The attacker wraps the opponent's head, then positions the elbow tip directly against the throat or side of the neck, creating a sharp focal point of pressure. [1,2] The free arm reinforces by pushing the opponent's head into the elbow fulcrum, generating concentrated compression on a very small surface area. [2] The elbow fulcrum produces a faster tap than broader forearm-based chokes due to the intense localised pressure, though it carries higher risk of tracheal injury. [2,3]
The forearm-fulcrum headlock choke uses the flat or bony edge of the forearm as the fulcrum surface against the opponent's neck from a front headlock. [1] Unlike the elbow-point variant, the forearm fulcrum distributes pressure across a wider area while still concentrating force through the radial bone edge. [1,2] The attacker positions the forearm across the throat, then uses the opposing arm to press the opponent's head into the forearm, creating a wedge effect that compresses the carotid arteries bilaterally. [2] The forearm variant is considered more controllable than the elbow point, making it more suitable for training and competition contexts where measured application is desired. [2,3]
According to TRITAC Martial Arts, grab deeper on the opponent's face rather than just the chin—your thumb should ride along the edge of the jawline to create a solid handle for the choke.
TRITAC Martial Arts emphasizes keeping your hips away from your opponent and maintaining heavy pressure on their head to prevent them from accessing your legs.
Post on your opponent's shoulder to create space, then roll your hand forward and drop them down while keeping your legs away, as demonstrated by TRITAC Martial Arts.
