  • We started out just testing some hilarious "self-defense" techniques, but as we started exploring how to actually deal with the situation, we started looking more and more like Karatekas. How did this happen? Let's watch and find out. For those of you who want to see in-depth tests of techniques, here's a super insightful video for you. We were not even trying to test Karate (or Bokator or kungfu or Kenpo for that matter), but the martial arts journey and spontaneity veered into certain blocks that you learn in Karate, and the magic just went from there.

      小手鍛え「Iron forearm」is found in Okinawan Karate, Kung Fu styles that have Southern, Shaolin, Dragon and or Mantis influence - and SEA martial arts.
      Theres also history of the sword & shield - shield bashing is similar arm movements.
      Kuroobiworld has a great video on it:
      th-cam.com/video/sHZRG99Z0tM/w-d-xo.html
      It is also a staple technique for Stunts - Action stars like Donnie Yen, J.C, Scott Atkins note that its built over time, And they all say that people - Even Guest pro fighters who aren't used to it, feel the pain and are Very bothered by it when they film. And in stunts the full technique would never be used!

    Not sure if someone commented it yet but ramsey dewey has a video talking about these karate blocks and how they make much more sense in a wrestling context, he did some tests as you guys and reached the same conclusion. Also one karate sensei I know showed our class the same thing, the blocks would make much more sense in a wrestling situation where you are trying to free yourself from a grab or using it for assisting a joint lock. Then to finish, jesse "the karate nerd" also talked about that in the past karate had way more takedowns and possibly fast wrestling, not only striking as it mostly is nowadays. All of that lead to the fact that karate was not just about striking, which makes sense because in real fights you need to be able to do more than just striking and blocking.

    From my experience the technique shown is best used if elbow down closer to their wrist while you drop your weight so their front deltoid is supporting your whole weight. From there you can pummel for an underhook. This has worked for me in BJJ here and there

      In karate kata Heian Nidan first move, left hand performs such a "side block" and right hand performs a "high block " that can easily be interpreted as an overhead hook punch to your opponent head that is performed simultaneously with the left hand "block " , while you turn your body in a bladed position towards your opponent, so you leave no blind spot. Defend and counterattack simultaneously

    As an older guy who does martial arts, a thing that jumps out at me every time I see channels do like your do self defense techniques is how the younger folks who are steeped in a MMA paradigm have gaps in their knowledge for stuff that used to be beginner MA class stuff. MMA has been great for pressure testing fighters and arts. But it's been interesting also to see the evolution over the last 30+ years. It's like watching MA history accelerated, and each training modality is situational and specific.

    As a former Shito Ryu karateka (1st Dan) I totally agree, (I now do MT) the blocks Soto uke, and Jodan Uke, (the blocks that parry to the outside) are more interesting and useful to use with other purposes, (like in the muay thai clinch for instance) than the inside parries, like Uchi uke, Harai uke, These are very useful, and easier to apply. In muay it is very common to block kicks to the head with both hand, and even trap the leg, with an adaptation of the Morote Uke.
    (In Shito ryu the Uchi uke is the inside parry and Soto Uke is the outside parry, I clarify this because in other styles they are the opposite.
    These blocks are not just parry, they should hurt, they can also be used for joint locks, although that is easier to archieve as a preemptive attack, not in a cage fight.
    Mawashi uke looks fancy but I´ve applied in sparring against the 1-2.
    If you want to see good application of bunkai you shouuld check Daniel Pyatt ´s channel.

    Hi Jerry,
    FWIW, some of the movements you did in the video do exist in Wing Chun as well (Tan Sau, Gan Sau, Jam Sau, etc). The problem you were having is that moving the arms alone are not sufficient to dislodge the chokehold; you must also include movements to lower your center of gravity (i.e., from natural standing to a horse stance where you suddenly lower your center of gravity) and combine that with hip rotation to leverage further force upon the opponent's hand. If you sink to a horse stance (and turn your body), you may not even need the hand -- the mere physical movement of your chest relative to his hand would be enough to break the hold, or pull the opponent off balance.
    From what I understand, these techniques are not exclusive to Kung Fu; they are also parallel to certain forms of Karate and Silat as well -- the only thing is that hand movements alone are not enough; you must combine the hand with your core and/or footwork to increase the effectiveness of the techniques. So instead of solely horizontal force applied by your hands, you are also applying vertical force from your core/center mass and lower body/footwork, which would be exponentially more force that will be more than enough to break any choking/grappling hands.

    in Shito Ryu, the inside block is called Uchi Uke, and the outside block is called soto uke, contrary to the other styles. A strong Uchi uke, well timed, to a commited strike, can make the opponent lose balance and stumble. So if you are used to parry to the inside, give it a try. In Kyokushin it is a short parry movement, but in Shito ryu and the other not so kickboxing styles is more commited.

  • @qleap99
    @qleap99 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It's high risk to rely on breaking a grab by using a block as the first move. Even with applied leverage, there's often an element of relative strength between the victim and attacker. What if it's a petite woman or a preteen versus a large man? What if the grip doesn't break even if you've applied the block correctly? If he's nice, maybe he'll just stand there and let you keep trying.
    It's easier and much more effective to shock and distract the assailant first: Finger jab the eyes, palm strike the nose upward, strike the throat or groin, stomp the knee or instep (or any two in combination) _and then_ break the grip using any of the blocks found to be effective. In a lot of cases, you'll find that they let go themselves at that point, rendering a break unnecessary and freeing you to escape or subdue them.

    In choy lee fut the use of the outside of the forearm is called "pek" and it's used in sweeping motions like in karate, and what you guys did. It can be an attack or a defense. In this case you are basically attacking the grabbing arm in an attempt to break the grip. If I'm not mistaken, many bunkai across different karate styles teach them both as attack and defense too.

      I think, if indeed the Cantonese/Guandong Choy Gar is related to the Fujian and Taiwanese Cai Jia Quan, you guys got that hard bridge-of-the-forearms and bladed fingers stuff down from an older predecessor art, the Fujian southern Taizu Quan (and also Fujian southern Luohan Quan, albeit, with a more ball-and-chain biomechanics and balanced hard and soft approach).( Got it FIRST from that, I mean. Of course I know about the more recent developments, like Iron Wire and 5/10 Shapes, etc.)
      Sometimes I think you guys don't quite realize how lucky you guys are, having such a laundry list of predecessor arts in your arsenal. I know you guys like to compete in full-contact a lot already, but hear me out. Just Choy Gar alone give ya methods in fighting close-ranged/small-framed, with them footwork. Lee Gar and Fut Gar (basically Choy-Hung, right?) give you guys, the more spinning.big-frame type of methods. You guys are aware enough to finish any over-committal spinning shit with a spinning hammer fist or back fist as backup defense. Not to mentioned, those big-framed swingging arms you guys got from Lama Pai/Hop Gar give you guys some ideas on uppercuts, hooks, and overhands.
      All is left is proper full-contact pressure-testing and the subsequent modifying of said pros, and enough time, and who knows?

    The kenpo inside block right across the upper inside of the forearm or crease of the elbow really hurts-- throw it as agressively as you would a hammerfist. It’ll clear a long grab okay when you’re in that position.
    I haven’t tried it in a dynamic situation--like in jujitsu. I think it would be considered bad ettiquette or even a foul. I think it would also be hard to pull off because of how fast grips evolve.

    Hey, I know the technic showed initially on the video by the girl. This technic has a problem: if his holding hand is very tense and he is a strong guy (i've been working in a GYM and visiting "rukopashka" - that's a kind of sambo i would say, the same time, so I met big guys from both worlds) - then yes, you won't bend his arm. In this case there is a solution: don't try to do it vs big guy or make him relaxed: instead of continuesly trying this against his big (50cm biceps) hands - kick his balls or knee, or hit his eyes with your fingers - theeeen, when he changed his focus on pain, you can bend his hand and there are great amount of technic you can continue with, to put him on the ground, or make a "police detention". It works the same as in grepling: if you can't make an effort to carry out the technique because the opponent is resisting and he is stronger - try to make an effort in the opposite direction, or, if there are no rules, "relax" the opponent.
    PS: if you want a 100% success without a conditions and exceptions - then use weapon. Otherwise there is an "if" always. But yes, I agree, the technic is not the best, I would take his wrist to fix the grab of my t-shirt and kick his top of the leg (if there are rules) or his balls instead, so make his body bended and the same time his hand in my grab, then - continue with other "police technic".

    Pull the hand down with your with your right hand, then after you pull with your right hand strike to the face or the chin or the nose with a palm strike better to hit in the chin and then hit with your fist to the solarplex that's the middle of the chest who doesn't know what a solaplex is. It wouldn't hurt to follow up with a growing strike. Then run away but make sure the person falls to their knees first. If that doesn't work follow up with a new strike to the Head and finally a kick to the head to make sure that they are on the ground. Then run away.

    I’m myunderstanding after 50 plus years of train via 5 martial arts there is not a lot of hand conditioning nor seen is the use of the shuto.
    These elbows in this case abdicated position by allowing the grab then moving across their own center line to use the other elbow opening up THe nage for a counter technique.
    All that mitigated by a shuto across the ulnar through the
    Pressure point initially targeted by the elbow

    I think in grabbing the neck, just putting your chin down would eliminate most of the effectiveness even though one could grip with the fingers. Yet, I feel it would not have that much pressure on the carotid artery.....

The instructor expected us just to learn the poomsae without understanding how to apply the techniques. The only thing I remember is that one of them ends with that block, but you're supposed to jump forward while doing it and kiai which makes absolutely no sense.

    Same idea as some other comments ... the first technique you tried should not be a downward elbow strike, but instead you fold your tricep over their wrist and drop your weight. Then elbow them in the face.

    @dantro6594 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    the one problem: you mention at the end this can work if you don't want to grapple. If someone knows how to grapple, this demonstration doesn't really apply. the guy grabbing you is standing still, holding your shirt--when have you ever seen a grappler motionless while grappling? committing to that block means swinging your body to the side--very easy to predict, feint a grab, when you go for the very exaggerated block they can then go for a double or just get a body lock. Hard to explain in text, but ask any wrestler to demonstrate what I mean regarding that block

    • @dantro6594
      @dantro6594 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I guess the best way to explain it is: grapplers use feints just like boxers. and for wrestling, this block is like an extremely telegraphed punch. If they for some reason grab you like that, and it miraculously works once and breaks their grip, I guarantee you any grappler will grab again just to bait that block, predict it beautifully, and easily get a takedown off of it

Whilst he's disoriented, bang belt those ribs 3 more times. Now unless they're a proffessional fighter those ribs are cooked and your attacker is on the floor.

    I personally do doubt the effectiveness of these moves you test. But i’m pretty positive that going into this with both of you anticipating it will fail, is getting in the way of you testing it fairly. Your opponent should not know what it trick your going to do, and you should show more intent from what I see.

    LOL. Yes. The technique requires a lot more force than she was laying down. Your parry would work much better. In a self-defense scenario, I'm kind of lazy and just stick to the good old bicep or tricep pinch... it hurts enough to get the assailant to loose grip, and that is about all you need... don't want to be under investigation for excessive force either...

    The techniques didn’t work because neither of you were trying to hurt each other. You were both larping. Of course it won’t work. If someone slammed their elbow at full force and full speed into the opponent’s lower bicep where it connects at the joints you guys would not continue to hold on to the shirt without some kind of pain.

  • @jkmartialarts5925
    @jkmartialarts5925 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The problem with the way you are testing the Karate blocks is that the attacker is in a stagnant position, not being aggressive, and moving with forward pressure. I really don't think any of the techniques you have shown are effective. It's not a very realistic testing situation.

    But the original lady was using (admittedly quite little) taijutsu. You guys use almost none at all. Where's your hips and your footwork? Her technique works because she drops her hips and steps back slightly as she's doing the elbow drop, which has the effect of pulling the attacker / uke forwards and off balance which it why it works for her but not you (who were failing to do either). Sorry chaps, work on your taijutsu a bit first.
