Hello M Secours, i have watched some of your downloads, and I have a question: when you are using the bear trap (arm is wrapped around, both hands are on the head and the head is on your shoulder everything is in place) how do you rotate ? Do you push/pull through the baseline and put the opponent's weight on one leg or do you just twist with your spine straight (isn't it risky this way?)? Thank you
@@alacotcot I Either step outside the legs if I can. If I’m in between his legs I usually pull him onto one leg-personally I find driving through the center while reaching that high sacrifices my balance . In an ideal world the initial headlock is like a hit that pulls him onto one leg, then I circle step back and pull him towards his other foot if that makes sense?
Sometimes in thai, sparring with friends, we would use the vice. If you jerk the vice back and forth into the back of the neck in the clinch, it's somewhat unpleasant.
Great video love your content friend. Question are most of your grappling techniques from Jiu Jitsu and Systema? I guess my Question is does Systema have a high focus on Grappling and throwing or is that more Japanese Jiu Jitsu?
It's a mix. Most are from Japanese Jujitsu. It was my earliest grappling system and I've been at JJJ for over 40 years in multiple styles. I cross-trained a lot though. In the mid 90s I met Erik Paulson and trained with him many times since then. He's been a big influence. When I started Systema around that time, they really had almost no grappling, but in the history of it, there was a lot of grappling and the same creators also made sambo, so i started cross-training in sambo then. Even my first Jujitsu coach cross-trained in catch wrestling, so it's quite a blend. I've seen this grip above in muay thai and dumog and lots of other places since i first learned it however. There are a lot of cross overs when you go deep enough. It's hard to know exactly what comes from where sometimes. Thanks for watching.
@systemacanada only of you believe it my friend cuz you sure don't look old. Also if you're caught in a bear hug from behind would a reverse headbutt to their face be an ideal attack?
Two great bikers. One of the greatest champs, and one of the best interviewers - perfect combo.
Thank you Mr. Fisher!
My pleasure :)
Outstanding. Truly nasty technique, but so effective.

Yep you won’t make friends and get lots of party invites going hard with this one.
