The video recommends keeping your front leg, whether left or right, turned inward slightly rather than flat and pointing outwards. This allows for more dynamic hip movement and a loaded position for explosive actions.
This video is a tutorial on effective hand fighting and pummeling techniques, primarily for grappling sports like wrestling or judo. It breaks down the nuances of grip fighting, creating angles, and executing offensive movements like snaps and level changes to gain an advantage and set up takedowns.
After a successful snap that off-balances the opponent, you can transition to a takedown by:
The general principle is to capitalize on the opponent's compromised position and follow up with a decisive offensive move.
The purpose of the "snap" technique is to create a void, off-balance the opponent, and make them react, thereby creating an opening for a takedown.
It is executed by:
The snap is described as a connection followed by a pull, rather than a forceful clubbing motion. It can be practiced from various positions, including with hands on shoulders while on the knees, to develop the muscle memory for the snapping action.
During a hand fight, you should aim to keep your hand around the opponent's armpit area and keep your hand lower than theirs. This position offers more control and allows you to "stuff" their arm. The goal is to make contact with their tricep, rather than just pummeling aimlessly. It's about controlling their structure and preventing them from establishing dominant grips on you.
