submission holds
Locks forcing tapouts
Submission holds are wrestling or grappling techniques designed to force an opponent to surrender by applying painful pressure to joints or restricting breathing.
Common examples include chokeholds, armlocks, and leg locks.
The goal is to make the opponent "tap out"—signal defeat by tapping the mat or their opponent—before injury occurs.
