Power Sit Series (Nov 2006) |
|
|
| |
Some fundamentals we stress:
1. When we go to a sit-out, we don't stay there. Hit one hip (not both), and stay for no longer than a split second. Any longer than that allows the opponent to attack you from a vulnerable position.
2. Move the hand first - that way, you beat the chop, and keep the opponent from tying up that arm.
The power sit series is quick and explosive, and gives you many scoring options. Athletes in my system who use it, score the following ways: Sit-out/Turn in, Sit-out/Switch, Sit-out/Granby, Sit-out/Peterson, Sit-out/Standup. It is an excellent series to get you moving, and create openings.
Now, for some strategy on using our Power Sit series.
When to recommend the power sit? If you have trouble standing up, or moving from down position, this is a good series for you. If you are strong, athletic, with great hips - you should use a stand up most of the time.
The Power Sit is also a good strategy against a cradler. Good sit-outs can wreak havoc on a cradle wrestler's game plan. Just make sure you follow the fundamentals listed above - don't stay in the sit long, or you will put that cradler back in his game. Other important point regarding cradlers: Make sure you don't Step with your outside leg - just rotate the knee, keeping the ankle where it is.
