L3 Test Flashcards
Know all techniques
Left VS Left (aka inside defence)
Left hand is up, they come in with jab and you move hand across your face to the right to block, moving hips, dont pivot. Also when hand is across hide face behind shoulder.
Left VS Left and Right (aka inside defence)
Left hand is up, they come in with jab and you move hand across your face to the right to block, then move hand back to the right and turn palm out, slightly upwards
Left VS Overhead Right :
Throw a looping/angled jab to counter their overhead right, bend the elbow up and hide face behind shoulder
Defensive back kick with spin
Step across the line, pivot, look over shoulder then spin and give back kick (foot down), follow through and end in goofy fight stance
Offensive back kick:
Kind of like the back uppercut kick (level 2), but your left leg is further out, so straighten leg then kick heal up
Inside and outside slap kicks
For inside, bring knee up across body and kick. For outside bring knee up on side then bring across for kick
Heel kick
Can be front facing or sideways - turn sideways, bring leg up and kick with heel, flicking heel at the end
Kick defences - Reflexive
Starting in neutral stance, both hands shoot up, palms/forearms out, as you step away from the kick ready to counter
Kick defences - 2 point
As kick comes in, step in to make contact with high part of shin (less impact), using forearm (palm facing in) and other hand palm facing out open hand, slightly away from body.
Kick defences - 3 point
No step in, add shoulder with using forearm (palm facing in) and other hand palm facing out open hand, much closer to body
kick defences - Round kick to ribs
Lower elbows, tighten core and face direction of kick.
Inward angle knee
Usually in the clinch, bring knee up to the side, then use side of knee to make contact, keep shin/foot vertical. This is DIFFERENT to the the horizontal knee, where the leg/shin goes horizontal and you make contact with top of knee, like a round kick almost, this is for when you have a little less space than the inward angled knee.
Bearhug, behind - leverage on finger:
This is for when elbows, groin and footstomp dont work at first, so attack finger. BASE n SPACE - After strikes fail, slap elbows and slide boths hands down until you find which hand on top, dig the index finger out from the top hand with the same side hand (can throw some elbows with the free hand), then pass the finger to opposite hand and move that free hand to squeeze his hand (create a leverage to bend the finger). Make the break finger motion, then step out in that direction then punch
Bearhug, behind - lifting:
As they lift you up, try wrap one leg around their leg to stop you flying up, then deliver deep backward goin kick, as they drop you BASE n SPACE and deliver elbows etc to get out.
Bearhug, front - lifting
As they lift you up, fush your hands onto their hips quickly to stop them grabbing you too close (SPACE - can work with hands in or out), then swing leg back and deliver knee to groin, as they drop you BASE n SPACE and deliver elbows etc to get out.
Full Nelson, standing - leverage on finger
As they attack (they put their hands under arm pits and grab back of head like revers clinch), drop and squeeze elbows as hard and soon as possible to break grip on neck. Like the bearhug, get hands back (maybe attack/scratch eyes) and run up their arms to find top hand, find index finger then keep peeling going with the forward motion as you turn in after their grip breaks
Reverse Headlock Standing
As they pull you down, first things is to turn head direction of the hands and pluck their hands, then drive your shoulder into them driving forward and deliver groin strikes (make them deep) until grip breaks, then step through and stand/posture up - spin around as their arm bends.
Double Leg
AKA double blast. Drop level, “penetrating step” between legs and go in like tackle - MUST push them back-and-up/away with shoulder - step lead leg between their open legs, drive forward as you pop them up/away off their feet and they drop (grab behind knees or upper calves). Keep head high, otherwise they can guillotine you
Single Leg (head inside or out)
Drop level, step in with lead foot between their legs and push knee through (like breaking pane of glass with knee). OR they have thrown a kick, then you just grab it. Grab behind their knee with both arms and trap their lifted leg between your legs. Keep head not too low and put pressure down on them with your shoulder, do small step to spin away towards the direction of leg you are holding - put them off balance and drop them. If head is inside then can use it to help push them over.
Single Leg (low hyper-extension)
This is starting from your knees, you put shoulder above their knee, on thigh, then pull their ankle to hyper extend it - drive forward to take them down. Different to knee tap as both hands go on ankle. Knee tap one arm goes through legs and grabs front/back of knees, more of blocking them from stepping, as opposed to attacking one leg.
Single Leg (knee tap): Forward and Backward
while on your knees, grab their shin and put other arm through to grab other knee to stop them from stepping then push them down
Snap-downs:
From the clinch, more for if they are pushing against you, with hand behind neck, step/pivot back/sideways and pull them down, let them fall forward and to the ground. Dont pivot too far so you facing backwards, face sideways
Sprawl
Throw legs back, put elbows on their upper back to hold yourself up, OR just put your chest on them, use hands minimally, then try get to side.
Pummeling
Lead hand and lead leg forward. Keep lead hand high under arm, back hand holds their lead tricep. Can keep head up or on chest. Swim back hand in to try get double underhooks
Two hand control (Thai Clinch)
Keep hands up high on head to control better
Thai Clinch Defence
- Eye Gouge - push their chin up
- Turn shoulder and swim hand back up through
- Pull their neck down, and push their opposite elbow up to twist, step and pivot, pushing their elbow up over your head until they release
Choke from side on ground - kick to face:
Pluck the far hand away, while delivering open hand punch to their sternum to make space, spin in and bring closest knee up and push knee into sternum where hand was, grabbing their hand with both your hands and pulling and pushing with knee to stretch them out, then deliver 2 kicks to the face
Choke from side on ground - takedown to armbar:
Same as above, but once they are stretched out, bring leg over their neck (can also deliver axe kick) pull them down to ground and keep butt close to their body, check thumb is up, their elbow is above your hips, then left hips and pull arm to the side of body till they tap.
Stacking from guard:
Grab their hands and put onto chest, drive forward put weight on their neck, step one leg forward and one back that cant get caught, reach back and unlock guard, push their leg away and forward across front then get to side control
Armbar from guard:
Grab arm, secure on wrist and reach across to grab tricep. Same side of arm, plant foot on ground or on their hip, use your wrist hand to push their face towards that hip, swing opposite leg up high on shoulder/neck, move the leg over their neck, clamp down and lift hips - make sure elbow above crotch
Guard reversal: sit up and sweep
First pull them in, then let them go as they pull back up, Open guard - put feet on ground, move hips to facing direction of sweep, bring arm across and their body to direction and wrap that arm - and post with other arm while sit up up towards the side, then try sit on their hips and pull them over.
Side control - bottom - basic position
Use frames, forearm/wrist against their throat, so that if they put pressure they push into their own neck. Other wrist against their hip, GET TO SIDE, not flat on back.
Outside defenses (hands moving outwards)
- Palm to face - bring hands straight up like windshield wiper
- Palm away - have time to rotate hand bring up across face, at angle
- Rolling up - can bend arm and bring whole forearm up at 90 deg, duck under it.
- Stabbing - Shoot straight arm out, cover face with shoulder, redirect
Hair grab front:
Drop chin take both hands and clap them on their knuckle which should loosen grip, bring elbows in and bend over to get leverage on their wrist until they release, then move back and kick

Without knee, burst in with groin strikes. WITH knee, block knee with one bend arm and groin strike with the other arm.
Hair grab behind:
Turn/rotate into the pull then do groin strikes
Side control - bottom - elbow escape
Use frames and then slightly buck them, shrimp out and bring leg back in to recover guard. ???
Side control - bottom - Reversal
Push their leg straight, then put both legs wide to the side and buck them over towards SHOULDER angle to make it easier, throw your legs up over, while you roll over them totally and end up on opposite side in side control

Put hands on chest and hip, pop up and put knee that was at the hip onto the belly with full weight, keep other leg out, deliver strikes then stand up.
Forward roll to standup
Put hands in front, right foot forward, turn right hand to the side and place in middle ground to force a roll over that arm/elbow then shoulder then side of back. Tuck head in all the way to ceiling to help back round. Fold back leg to make figure 4 to help get back up facing where you rolled from.
Forward roll to fall break
Complete forward roll but instead of getting up, stay low and rotate around and fall back into a fall break.
Headlock from side on ground - Position
Quickly get to side, you dont want to be on your back. Get your arm across their face so if they pull you in closer they put pressure on own face/neck.
Headlock from side on ground - Forward:
Their weight is forward, so you go with it, slide hips away and leg out flipping over to belly, putting pressure on their arm around your neck until they let go
