柔术形而上学（2023/3/15）

控制手肘=控制后背：拿背一般来说是无道服比赛中的最佳位置。你的对手也深知这一点，总是会在你和他的背部之间设置屏障。他最重要的屏障之一就是他的肘部。只要他把你保持在他的肘部之间--就不会暴露自己的后背。能够从他的肘部下方、周围或上方控制他的肘部是这项运动的重要技能之一。每当你面对对手时，都要问自己如何才能越过他的肘部，因为如果你做到了，你就会走上胜利的道路。即使是最警觉的对手也会在某些时候忘记肘部是通往后背的障碍。如果你在那一刻适当地移动，你就会在瞬间到达他的背部——而这很可能会为你带来前所未有的优势。

If you can beat the elbow - the back is yours: The back is generally the best place to be in a no gi grappling match. Your opponent knows this and will always put roadblocks between you and his back. One of the most important roadblocks he has are his elbows. As long as he keeps you between his elbows - there is no back exposure. Learning to beat his elbow by going under it, around it or over the top of it is this one of the great skills of the sport. Whenever you’re in front of an opponent keep asking yourself how you can get past his elbow, because if you do, your on the path to victory. Even the most vigilant opponent will at some point get forgetful about the elbow as the barrier to the back. If you move appropriately at that moment you’ll be on his back in a flash - and that may very well be all that’s needed to turn the match in your favor.
