One of the main elements of this type of exercise is to try to keep your form or good posture whilst breaking that of your training partner. It is possible to break a person's form in many different ways. Moving two or three different points of the body in opposite directions, immobilising parts of the body or interrupting natural movement of the joints, feet or even the head can be effective ways to break the form. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
