Rotational Force

Rotational force involves applying twisting motion through the hips, torso, or limbs to amplify sweeps, escapes, and submissions. This principle enhances leverage, making techniques more effective against resistant opponents.

Examples include hip-based sweeps, arm locks, and twisting chokes. By combining rotational force with grip control and body angles, practitioners can overcome size or strength disadvantages. This principle highlights the use of physics in BJJ, showing how torque and rotation multiply efficiency in both offense and defense.
