Understanding the Anatomic Hierarchy in Jiu-Jitsu

In jiu-jitsu, the anatomic hierarchy provides a concept to assess the strength and effectiveness of body parts. The hierarchy categorizes body parts based on strength, from the strongest (torso) to the weakest (head). The core or torso is emphasized as the central power source, while legs and arms follow in terms of power and dexterity. The hierarchy guides practitioners to utilize their entire body efficiently in techniques for optimal effectiveness.
