[MrWilDemon]

great technique but if the dude is big and fast you need to do something more painfull XD

MrWilDemon - Thank you for taking the time to comment. Yes, I see your point. I guess it is generally safe to say that power, etc. of both sides must be approximately judged. I was showing a drill to practice for improving leverage that might be of use to know. Take good care and again thank you for sharing your views. Fred

@MrWilDemon back of your head...into his...lol (i would at least)

[malaspuzvicalnakrpa]

Hmm, I would go for the throw, not just unclenching his arms. It seems too risky to me. But if there are multiple opponents, it might just be useful.

[leveragepinning]

Certainly a valid potential option. Please see my Jujutsu 101 A Little Philosophy #1; it really, as you know, comes down to balance disruption. I was showing a point dealing with leverage. Whether one strikes the groin, throws, stomps on foot, etc. will all depend on the particular context, including what one's body type can do against the attacker. I appreciate your sharing. Take good care. Fred

I can't believe that I got put in a bear hug tonight by the bouncer at a night club, and I didn't remember the escape for it. The escape is on of the first BJJ move I ever learned over 15 years ago :'(

Thank you for your comment. Take good care. Fred

I've been training Kung Fu for 9 years and I feel like I'm wasting my time after seeing Fred throw that steroid abuser around like he's nothing.

[zackzach]

could you try the front bearhug

[dataflowc]

Great, I do karate and I can see this move in the kushanku kata that I have didn't notice before, thank you.

[leveragepinning]

That's interesting about that kata you mentioned.  Thank you. Take care and best to you in your training.

Finally, a self-defense move that is based on body mechanics and leverage and not just strength. As a woman I found Fred's drill both practical and simple to remember in a moment of stress/fear. Thank you.

[RefinedFury]

Thanks for the awesome video! Keep 'em coming!

[BodyPerformanceTV]

Great video. Using leverage to overcome your attacker. That's true jujitsu!
