Sadly it has to be shown (demonstrated) and can't be explained. It has to be precise and most likely you'd get one shot at using the move. But it has worked every time for me and others I showed it to.
Wrestle4fun: Certainly if wrestlerA is lying flat on the floor: with his opponent, wrestlerB, on top of him: having his face pressed to the floor will prevent him from having his chin pressed to his breast-bone, the position needed to turn the full Nelson into a choke hold, but this is not to say never is never. If wrestlerB lifts his victim slightly off the floor (perhaps with the intention of turning the hold into a camel-clutch) wrestlerA could then have his chin forced to his breast-bone and be choked.
There are so many variables in wrestling which, actually, make the sport so interesting and exciting.
A certain hold may cause one opponent to submit at once, but applied on a different wrestler, the victim will slip out of it as though there was no hindrance to his movement. You never know how an opponent will react to your attack until you try the attack on him. That is why wrestling is so fascinating!!
Hey Guys, see this link and movie of actual incident where a student is put in a full nelson and his neck is broken. The guy who did it is in jail for what he did and the poor guy who had his neck broken will never be the same again.
As submit 25 says, the full Nelson is not allowed in freestyle/collegiate wrestling. This is because, if you force your opponent's chin down onto his chest in a full Nelson, the back of his tongue will press against the back of his throat preventing him from breathing. This is not fully understood. When I took up freestyle wrestling I was told that the full Nelson was not allowed because a 'French wrestler had had his neck broken in the hold'. In fact, if the full Nelson is applied rigorously, it actually becomes a choke hold.

What's the secret to get out of a full Nelson?

Being twice as big and as strong as the person applying it. Good luck with that.

Simply stated you pull your arms down to break the lock. Which brings us back to the old cliché, "size does matter."
Any hold can be broken with enough size and/or strength. But that's no a technique (that I know of) only brute force.

2010-12-27 18:37Is this still true if the full nelson is applied on the ground (a on the picture)?
I assume in this case it's a pretty good hold, but without choke.
I think this variation is harmless (both: no health danger and not close to a submission). Do the experts agree? Zaloguj się, aby obejrzeć galerię.
