Grappling hold

Instead of having a real fight in movie, movie directors tend to prefer throwing fake punches in order to ensure the safety of actors and actresses. But those fake punches have become one of the least exciting part of the movie. When watching a long fighting scene, audiences would become less and less engaged and sometimes shift their minds to other things instead of the movie. In the movie Fist of Fury directed by Lo Wei, an almost six minutes fake fighting scene consisted of main character Chen

Are MMA and boxing dangerous? “Martial arts are a spiritual challenge, not a physical one” (Ronny yu). Despite all the blood, MMA is actually safer than boxing. To viewers , the bloody, head-to-toe violence of mixed martial arts (MMA) can make cage fighting events look like the most dangerous sport on the planet. But a new study finds that it is actually safer than at least one sport, boxing. Because in boxing you can not use your full body, meaning you can't kick with your legs so you are getting

Nerves and the adrenaline feeling rushed through my body like a jet going sonic boom ripping through the air. I was on a school bus headed to a wrestling meet in York, Nebraska on a cold winter day in December. I figured my wrestling meet would be like all the other wrestling meets in the past, win most, lose a few. Never really thought this meet would be the final meet for the season. This meet would change my way of thinking towards wrestling and affect my confidence level. After a loud and unpeaceful

It was around 3:30 on a cold winter afternoon, and my brother and I pull up into the Highschool parking lot. As he pulled up to the door of the school, I thanked him for the ride and he sped off to return home. I opened up the doors of the school, and worked my way down the steps, to the wrestling room to weigh in, and wait to leave. As upon entering, I was greeted by other wrestlers roaming the hallways.

I was starting to get tired since I used a lot of my energy to keep a hold of my grip. I had the choice in the third and chose bottom also. I did a quick sit out and switch than he caught me flat and was able to get the legs in but no points. He quickly started throwing across cross faces but they weren't lightly either.

“Extenuating circumstances, better known as the modern day escape hatch. Yeah, that’s a pretty fuckin’ harsh prononcment but I’m not the kinda’ guy who is gonna’ waste time waxing poetic. I’ve gone on the record as sayin’ that I hate the extracurricular fireworks that go on in this business. To me our job as fighters is simple: we show up, beat the hell of each other and get paid. It’d be great if that was what it was like but nope there always has to be a catch with the modern day fighter. There

Have you ever showed up to a wrestling match because all your friends are going and don't have any clue how the scoring works. I have been wrestling for a long time and all the time I have people come up to me and ask me how do you get two points? And why did the ref give you one Point?

Some are more standup/striking oriented like Kung Fu, Karate, Taekwondo, and Boxing/Kick-Boxing. These rely mainly upon punches, kicks, elbow/knee and other strikes, along with some standing grabs, pins, and even throws. Others like Brazilian Jijitsu and Judo focus on taking the fight to the ground and winning the fight via various grappling techniques

“Why were you not at practice Matthews?¨ ¨I don’t know what’s with you and this mindset that you have nothing left to learn, but you need to work on your technique every once in awhile. Well at least do not ignore me.” Tyler tied his shoes and strapped them. He tried to loosen up in the small time accessible to him since as usual being the lowest weight class on his team at 132 pounds. But this was not a bother to him as it was for most kids at this level, in fact, he loved it, not only was he the
