Movements 8 - 9: Arm Bar & Throw

右 采 左 隔 肘
yòu cǎi zuǒ gé zhǒu
Right Pluck, Left Separate Elbow

As the arm is twisted to bring the enemy’s elbow facing upward, the left forearm strikes the enemy’s elbow to form an arm bar. The power of this technique comes from twisting the waist clockwise to form a Twist Stance (niu bu).
