In this week's mini-episode we begin a series of discussions on the different types of **breaking mechanics** in Jiu-Jitsu! This episode explains **linear breaks** like armbars and kneebars, which hyperextend the middle joint (elbow/knee) of a limb. *(A note on terminology: a linear "break" as described here is technically more of a "tear," as you're not breaking bone, you're tearing soft tissue. However, we'll use the term "break" as it's the more commonly accepted and understood term in Jiu-Jitsu.)* Before you listen to this episode, check out: Mini Ep. 21: The 3 Joint Rule [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/episodes/15817572-mini-ep-21-the-3-joint-rule](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/episodes/15817572-mini-ep-21-the-3-joint-rule) Get our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE: [https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro](https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro) **Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!** If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.
