Note: the capture of soft boxing is not only "grasping", but also includes all throwing and wrestling techniques.
Soft boxing has absorbed Jiu Jitsu, Karate, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Sanda and Judo. The essence of skills.
Characteristics and Key Techniques of Soft Boxing
The art of moving is the essence of self-defense.
(1) Sensing the sensitivity of opponents;
(2) Dynamic, natural and smooth;
(3) the intuition of step distance;
(4) Balance between starting and braking.
In the end, you will meet an opponent that you can't beat by will. At this time, you need the strategy of defeating the strong with the weak Footwork is the most important part.
(1) score seven points and kick three points.
Boxing is a relatively complete part of the soft boxing system.
Li Zeyang called boxing the most effective attack and defense weapon, and its application ratio was as high as 80%, which is also the biggest feature of soft boxing. Li Zeyang also believes that in human limbs, although the legs are powerful, the legs of weak women cannot defend themselves. Instead of this, it is better to use flexible fists, which is more convenient to hit the key. More than half of the people are still in the upper body, so soft boxing attaches great importance to boxing, which is to ensure the effect with its rich and changeable boxing, so soft boxing is also called a "women's self-defense"
(2) Heart first
Soft boxing pays most attention to psychological quality. As a girl, even if you practice well and have great strength, if you meet gangsters and are timid, you will be useless. This is also the biggest difference between soft boxing and traditional female self-defense.
Soft boxing practitioners are not strong, but they are fast and responsive. Is a top priority.
"Speed" refers to the way to win by attacking. Only when we are fast can we take it by surprise and attack it unprepared. Speed is one of the three elements of Wushu, and the three elements of soft boxing are speed, strength and accuracy. There are two versions of soft boxing: "fast but not broken" and "fast and short". The so-called "fast and short" requires short, crisp and fast force, the combination of upper and lower limbs, and quick and clean movements. It is necessary to use the rapid force of the trunk (especially the waist) and limbs to eject the opponent at the moment of force. Give your opponent a bolt from the blue and take him by surprise. Speed is a complex phenomenon, which includes recognition time and reaction time. Usually, the key is not how fast you move, but how fast you can reach your goal, which is worthy of the boxer's attention. According to the actual combat situation, the speed can be classified into five categories: 1/ visual speed, 2/ reaction speed, 3/ sending speed, 4/ action speed and 5/ deformation speed.
Elements for faster speed: 1/ Do warm-up exercises to reduce muscle obstruction, increase elasticity and flexibility, and adjust various systems of the human body to adapt to a higher degree of physiological exercise. 2/ Proper muscle contraction. 3/ Concentrate. 4/ Develop a quick and keen visual habit, that is, quick response. 5/ Rich imagination and insight. 6/ The coordination, mobility and flexibility of actions can directly or indirectly improve the speed.
(C) the power of soft boxing
In soft boxing, the strength of the blow is not entirely based on strength, so there are many professional boxers with underdeveloped muscles, but they can concentrate on breaking out instantly and issuing a powerful blow. On the contrary, some muscular boxers can't beat their opponents. The reason is that strength is not only produced by muscle contraction, but also depends on explosive force! That is, the moving speed of hands and legs. Therefore, even Li Zeyang, who weighs only over 70 kilograms, can beat his opponents who weigh two or three times as much as him. The secret is that he can concentrate on one point and make an instant effort.
In soft boxing, there are many ways to exert strength, but there are only two in essence: long strength and short strength. Long strength and short strength are distinguished by the time and effect of strength acting on each other's body.
1/ short strength. A short force is a fast elastic force, just like a compression spring popping up suddenly, because it takes a short time and comes out quickly. Therefore, it will have a great crushing and nerve-shaking effect, which can go deep into the interior, make the opponent panic and create conditions for the subsequent long-term attack. Therefore, in actual combat, Li Zeyang advocates launching short forces, and the specific performance of short forces in technical attacks is explosive force.
2/ grow strong. Generally speaking, it is the overall strength. Mainly driven by waist, legs, hips and shoulders, it is used to string together according to the joints and exert force from bottom to top or top to bottom. Because of the long time and heavy weight, it is called long force.
(4) Invincibility is like having an enemy, and having an enemy is like being invincible.
Being invincible like an enemy means that you must always stand in front of yourself when practicing. An imaginary enemy is fighting himself. At this time, you will make full use of your skills to understand the boxing theory.
Being invincible is not underestimating the enemy, but a strategic principle of soft fist against the enemy. To defeat your opponent, you must despise him strategically and be superior to your opponent psychologically.
(5) Timing
In fighting, speed and a good grasp of time complement each other, and accurate judgment and attack timing are the key to winning. There are many opportunities for soft boxing:
1/ When a soldier subconsciously decides to attack, if he pays attention, it is the best time to carry out a penetrating attack. If he acts decisively and quickly, he can increase the possibility of successful attack. 2/ When the opponent is ready to attack, we should decisively give a fatal blow or a series of attacks. 3/ When the opponent is doing the action, take the opportunity to give a fatal blow. When an opponent misses an attack, he should seize the opportunity to fight back. 5/ If the opponent is careless, inattentive and exhausted, the success rate is quite high if he takes the opportunity to launch a storm.
(6) The waist is dominant, and the waist and horse are integrated.
The waist is the part with the largest range of motion on the human trunk; It is the hinge that runs through the upper and lower limbs, affecting the movement changes of the whole body and pushing the strength to all parts of the body. If the waist strength is used properly, it will help to maintain the balance of the whole body and sufficient strength to operate. In soft boxing, the movement of limbs is usually driven by the rotation and bending of the waist. Each leg of each punch needs to use the waist, so that the force starts from the foot, gathers from the waist, then passes from the shoulder to the elbow, from the hip to the knee, and finally falls on the hands and feet. Such as: foot-waist-shoulder-elbow-hand; Foot-hip-knee-foot. It is necessary to coordinate and unify all parts of the body with the waist as the center in order to achieve the best force effect. So "if you want to make a fist, you need to twist your waist and turn your hips first."
(7) Seek balance in sports.
The so-called balance means that the human body remains relatively still in space. Li Zeyang said that balance ability is the ability to control the position of the body's center of gravity at any time. He also asked to aim at any height when going out and be able to cooperate with various techniques, footwork and posture. Effective balance means controlling the body in any position, that is, controlling the center of gravity of the body. Even if the body is tilted or unstable and out of balance, it can be mastered and recovered quickly. In order to control the body's center of gravity in sports, we should use broken steps and sliding steps instead of jumping or striding, and constantly change the body's center of gravity according to the actions of our opponents and ourselves. When punching or kicking, don't go too far, because it will visualize the balance of the body. It is indeed a difficult but necessary technique to keep balance under the condition of constantly changing the center of gravity of the body, so it is necessary to cultivate correct balance ability and posture in peacetime training.
(8) Good sense of distance
In practice, dexterous leg technique and accurate fist technique both involve the correct judgment of distance. The position of the target is not only the position of the opponent in front of you, but also the position of the opponent who may dodge. Therefore, at the moment before the attack, we must correctly judge the distance between the enemy and ourselves. When two skilled boxers meet, both sides try to win a favorable position, and the distance between them is constantly changing. Keeping a favorable position depends not only on the speed and sensitivity of your own movements, but also on the speed and sensitivity of your own movements.
Soft boxing has three different distances. Generally speaking, without knowing the opponent's level, it is necessary to test the opponent's level from a long distance. Moreover, when defending, you should go a little further, don't let your opponent get close, the distance is too close, and you will often be passive when defending. After finding out the actual situation of the opponent, you can approach and reach a medium distance. Within this distance, both sides are within the attack range, and whoever can grasp the time will take the initiative. In close combat, usually, the first-mover seals the opponent's front foot with his own foot, so that he can't move, attacks with his legs, and then attacks his opponent with a stormy fist. For example, Li Zeyang's unique skill "random hook" is a practical skill to deal with close combat.
Finally, if it is possible not to use soft boxing for a lifetime, of course, the most fundamental purpose of learning soft boxing is self-defense, but soft boxing brings us not only these practical functions, but also has far-reaching significance for the safety of Chinese people.
Soft boxing practitioners' weaknesses:
The disadvantage of soft boxing practitioners in fighting competition is obvious. First of all, many skills of soft boxing are basically restricted by domestic mainstream competition rules, so soft boxing is not suitable for challenges. Soft boxing is only suitable for the street, so practitioners must be clear!
