Self Defense from Outside Position: Inboard Wristlock

Video Transcript

"Now we're going to cover inboard wrist locks. There's actually two ways of getting into an inboard wrist lock from this position that is very, very relatively easy. First she throws a punch, and the same arm bar that we just worked in the previous clip, you can go to that position and from there just take your right hand. I'll slide this up so you can see it. You take your right hand, grab thumb on the back, fingers in the palm. Then all you do is you take it off and then you want to try to use your other hand to gain control. Again, thumbs on the back of the hand, fingers in the palm, you push in towards the person, towards their own body, and then you take on the pinky side and you twist towards the pinky and from that way you're going to execute a wrist lock. Another way that's a little bit quicker, but it's a little harder as far as the grip goes, she throws the punch, you block, from here when you strike you take your right hand and you roll it in ok, in and pushing it in there. You actually roll it in and then towards the body, but it's a little bit more difficult because of the grip and really when you do a technique like that you are definitely forcing somebody down to the ground. So you've got to make sure, and throw that punch, for here if you're going to try to execute that you can turn your body into it, probably even get your hips back, turn yourself a little bit back and then try to execute an inboard wrist lock from that position. So that is how to execute, two ways actually to execute, an inboard wrist lock from an outside position and one from an arm bar."
