Hi there
I'm working on blue Belt extensions at the moment and have come across a problem with Destructive twins.
I am lucky enough to have a higer grade helping me during the weekend with these however he is huge at around 6ft something and 120kgs of pure muscle I weigh half of that and stand at only 5ft 1.
This is good for me as it is stopping me from using my brute strength (haha) and making me use technique, if I can make it work on him then the smaller guys will hardly be any trouble. On the down side his size also makes it difficult especially with Destructive Twins extn.
The buckle and throwing the opponent down. This I find is a huge effort and end up straining my neck and shoulder. If he lands slightly off to where I want him I can adjust the move and drop my right knee instead of the left onto his collar bone and finish the move off correctly. If by some miricle he lands where I need him to and drop the left knee, there is a huge distance for me to cover with the cross over to get into the position to do the looping roundhouse to the groin. Should I be doing the cross over where his head is of crossing over his body?
Also with the buckle, I have also tried to buckle first to get him very low then doing the throw slightly after, which ends up me using his neck to throw him. It was easier for me but harder on him. Dont feel thats a safe option for the poor opponent.
We are trying all options but would appreciate any ideas.
Cheers
