柔术形而上学（2023/2/23）

绞技几乎总是更好的选择。降服是柔术的灵魂。在这项运动中，有两种类型的降服--关节技和绞技。两者对比赛和你的发展都至关重要，但如果你有选择的话--在大多数情况下，选择绞技。绞技有更大程度的确定性。一个勇敢而坚定的对手可以简单地拒绝被关节技降服，如果他愿意承受伤害的话，但拒绝被绞技降服不会影响结果--即使是最勇敢的对手也会昏倒。此外，对于一种对对手伤害较小的结束比赛的方法来说，有一些内在的好处。如果在比赛规则范围内使用，绞技不会造成持久的伤害——而关节技经常造成伤害。绞技在应用和结果上都比较温和（当然，除非是在竞技之外有不良企图）。柔术希望你在训练中同时掌握这两种方法--但如果命运让你在这两种方法中做出选择，那么在大多数情况下，请选择绞技而不是关节技。

Strangles are almost always the better option: Submission is the soul of Jiu jitsu. There are two types of submission hold in the sport - joint locks and strangles. Both are essential to the game and your development, but if you have a choice - in most cases, go with strangles. Strangles have a greater degree of certainty associated with them. A courageous and determined opponent can simply refuse to submit to a joint lock if he is willing to take the damage, but refusal to tap to a strangle won’t affect the outcome - even the bravest opponent will simply pass out. In addition, there is something intrinsically better about a method of ending a match that is less damaging to an opponent. A strangle causes no lasting damage if applied within the rules of the game - a joint lock on the other hand often causes damage. Strangles are more gentle in application and result (unless of course applied with bad intentions outside the sport). Jiu jitsu expects you to train toward mastery of both - but if fate should ever give you choice between them - bet on strangles over joint locks in most cases
