三招了(San Zhao Liao) - 3 moves combo

[YouKnowWho]

Back in the 70th, I subscribed a CMA magazine from Hong Kong. It was called 新武侠(Xin Wu Xia). There was a section in that magazine called "三招了(San Zhao Liao) - 3 moves combo". Every month, different CMA styles would show their 3 moves combo set up. It interested me a great deal because I could see different style used different set up. Some pre-defined combo such as:

- right jab, left hook,
- nuts kick, face punch,
- shoulder lock, reverse elbow lock,
- leg catch, foot sweep,

worked in the past 1000 years. It will continue to work for the next 1000 years. It will be fun that if we can have a section like this in this forum. We can start from 2 moves combo, so different styles can share their different set up ideas. Let's have a discussion on the PRO and CON on this approach. All opinions are welcome.

Let me to start the 1st combo here. You use "hip throw (O Goshi)" to set up your "inner hook (Ouchi Gari)". When you apply "hip throw", if your opponent resists, you can borrow his resistence and use your "inner hook" to throw him backward.

thats nice counter, its taken from SC adn we use it often usually on opponets who are much larger and are harder to throw.

one of my favotires is a simple parry, backfist, uppercut, hammerfist works incrediablly well adn is extremly quick, notice I parry low then go high , then low again... this totaly confuises the opponent and can be executed very quick and easy

3 to 5 move combo drills are common in both mantis and tong bei.

in tong bei, it is like left and right same move and end with fatal strike at mid, high or low.

so the first 2 moves are expecting defense or counters.

the last move you move in and strike hard, that is if there is an opening to do so.

come to mind, there are 24 combo hand drill sets from tong bei

the front, middle and rear hand sets, each set is comprised of 8 combo's, thus total 24 hand sets. 前八手 中八手 后八手 these sets were used and proven in fights. each has apps, tactics and strategy in poems or songs.

there can be more. such as kick combo, elbow combo, knee/kick combo on and on.

longfist has some basic combos. 实捶虚捶 solid and fake punches 短红锤 telegraph and real hook punches,神拳下插 overhand singleleg 冲天锤朝阳手 uppercut hip throw

[David Jamieson]

1. left jab/right cross/left hook

2. left jab/right cross/ cutting kick above the knee

3. left jab/shovel kick/ right cross

These are really direct and high percentage combos extrapolated right out of kung fu sets.

Ohhhhhhhh....NOW I know who =P

copied and pasted:
My teacher calls it "the rule of 3's", which is inclusive of defensive/counter movements. The least acceptable result is to connect with the 3rd action. Any greater number of actions to hit, throw, or break is either greatly flawed, or greatly outclassed.

Best case scenario is to succeed in every single action.

That being said, each attack, minus one or two "feelers" if you're sparring or in sport, is executed with a minimum of 3 actions/combo., with at LEAST the 3rd connecting.

Works great when you do it like that. Even better when you practice it against resisting opponents. Doesn't work so well when you do it in a solo form.
