Defining Mean Techniques and Applications

Mean techniques are not necessarily the issue; instead, it is how they are applied that matters. The discussion emphasizes that control and proper execution are key elements in determining the safety of techniques. For instance, techniques that involve excessive or uncontrolled body weight, such as flying submissions, can pose a higher risk. The importance of being able to maintain control throughout the execution of a technique is highlighted, as exemplified by Craig Jones' approach to holding armbar positions before applying pressure.
