Strategic-tactical optimization in hand-to-hand combat: the mastery of grappling as a determining factor in encounters
Journal Title: Journal of Combat Sports and Martial Arts - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction. The present work had for objective to investigate the role mastery of grappling, chiefly on the ground, considering the existence of factors whose impact extends beyond the sporting spheres, although in which they can be potentiated. Materials and methods. The literature review has been the procedure adopted to accomplish this work, including books and case studies from which the data were extracted and interpreted in their set. Results. The studies analyzed converge pointing out the primacy of the grappling under striking in MMA events. Besides, there is a trend in the sense that the higher the qualification of the fighters, the more expressive the incidence of their performance on the ground, that which, in turn, suggests that the issue is not exhausted in the mere field of grappling. Some studies have shown that, even within the context of grappling battles, the groundwork effectiveness indexes are still the most expressive Conclusion. Taking into account the athletes performances as well as the vulnerabilities presented by the group of law enforcement officers analyzed, some guidelines have been drawn up in order to contribute to the improvement of the methodological systems in force. 1- Whether in the sports sphere, or in the war against crime, the main approach must be based on grappling, even it is accomplished in a context in which it must be associated to striking. 2- Ground fight qualification is an imperative not only for succeeding in sporting competitions but also for survival in non-rules encounters. 3- Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) must be the central pillar of modernization of the current hand-to-hand combat systems, in order to reconfigure them to the new modern combat scenario, where more and more specific ground fighting skills are required besides other capabilities.
