What to do about overarm bearhug?

[snowman22]

Noon guy who's on the steroids rushes a classmate and bearhug him trapping his arms under the bearhug. He then lifts him up and drops him hard to the floor. What can you do when the bearhug is being applied?

 

[nefti]

Frame palms on hips, push away; knee/kick or clinch- hip throw

 

[Esile]

Lower your hips and hook his leg to prevent being lifted, then push away his hips while you move backwards to create space.

Get on steroids and all will become clear.

 

[Clinchster]

Shift hips to a side, drop weight, then do a two on one "scoop" with both your arms against the side you hip out on. If you do this quick enough and with enough force you typically push one arm up so far that he can't control you enough to take ya for a ride. This one is admittedly more preventive in that it works if he hasn't quite pinned your arms completely.....and that he doesn't know enough to transition to something else...You can also drop your weight, hook a leg and push his hips, make it a dog fight....For what it's worth, it's a legit technique for a bigger guy, same thing can be said for the rape choke.
