Front headlock choke with leg assist
Also known as Peruvian Necktie — the canonical term used on this site.
Training background: Descriptive mechanical name
Descriptive — leg-assisted front-headlock choke
Front headlock choke with leg assist is the descriptive name for the Peruvian necktie — flagging the leg-assist mechanic and the front-headlock context that define the attacking configuration.
Etymology. The compound phrase enumerates the position context (front headlock), the submission category (choke), and the leg-assist mechanic. The descriptor predominates in instructional contexts that emphasise the mechanical structure over the regional “Peruvian” naming.
Mechanics. The leg-assist closes one half of the bilateral compression while the choking arm closes the other — without the leg connection the technique reduces to the Japanese necktie family.
Cross-reference. “Peruvian necktie” is the regional canonical name. Full mechanical coverage on Peruvian Necktie.
