Does going biking with your legs actually ease things for the brain when you are in a bad choke?
It could I guess? The closest I ever came to wrestling was getting run over by a car.
It’s kind of an auto-reflex reaction, where he should be shrimping instead of air bicycling, but he just got KO’d from the takedown and is going in and out of consciousness from the choke so his body is reflexively doing an imitation of what it remembers to do.
Kind of like Holly shadow-boxing in the RNC instead of hand-fighting, but a locked in deep RNC is crushing the trachea and cutting off the blood very effectively.
Since this was a one-armed guillotine it’s just not as tight/efficient and leaves a little wiggle room, doesn’t mean you can’t put someone out with it but it’s why it’s so rare to see in fights. I think Faber used to hit them occasionally and so did Joey B, seems like if you are a bricked up wrestler with short arms it’s more effective.
