submission wrestling
Submission wrestling is a form of grappling that focuses on using holds and techniques to force an opponent to submit, or give up. It combines elements from various martial arts, including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, judo, and catch wrestling. The goal is to control the opponent and apply joint locks or chokeholds, leading to a submission.
In submission wrestling, competitors typically wear athletic clothing, such as rash guards and shorts, and do not use strikes. Matches can take place on mats or in a ring, and they emphasize technique, strategy, and physical conditioning. This sport is popular in mixed martial arts (MMA) training and competitions.
