As a new HEMA practitioner this is very helpful. Not only for my own defense and offense, but explaining how my instructor gets some of his easy hits! Thanks! 😂
after 6years of sparring experience I would advice to stay in the bind as long as you see an opening. if your partner leaves the bind close the line with a guard or maybe you find the indes action to counter his/her movement immediately.
Federico, how do you differentiate inside from outside parry in longsword, since you may lead with any foot, and hold weapon with both hands? Do you take into consideration hand closer to crossguard to define a line? Would you do the same for spear?
Yes, inside and outside are based on the leading hand, as the main mechanics are related to the leading hand. No matter if I’m leading with left or right foot. And yeah same is for the spear. So for instance. A lefty using the sword with the left hand close to the cross guard has his outside to the left of his sword/hand and the inside on the right.
Well yes, poste are a way to move throughout space, we’re just name given to position quadrants. A Parry is the way in which in modern days we call every act, purely defensive in nature, which stops an attack from hitting us, using your blade. Inside is the line, left of the blade, by the perspective of who parries. An inside parry can be done by reaching what in the old manuals is called corona, or by doing a Krumphau on top of the opponent cut, or in many other ways.
Woot, thanks Federico! Your content is much appreciated Do you have any advice on how to keep practice fun and novel? I go through cycles of sharp earnestness and eagerness which eventually becomes dull and when that happens my human form prefers to socially interact via video games or spending money publicly to engage with other humans over honing my sword art. Maybe I should build a training dummy and whack the shit out of it
Ahahah! Well you should try to do both in the amount you like to do XD Definitely having a good group of friends at your club/group is a way to mix friendship, fun and practice in a good way, although it’s not always possible! Another good thing is setting yourself measurable objectives which are also meaningful to you, it may be landing an action, doing a number of reps of some exercise, increase the weight on barbels or obtain specific results in sparring or even tournament. And leave yourself a couple hours a week to play video games, if you force yourself in not doing so you’ll just do it more the next month ;-)
@@FedericoMalagutti I have no issue with it at all, I'm simply enjoying the content you put out each week :) BTW this video was super fun for me, in my club we were practicing "blocks" like what you are showing at the beginning of the video just last week to improve our technique and I must say it's crazy how you are doing absolutely the same thing yet so differently :) Really funny to see the variety in interpretations and usage of same techniques with all the advantages and disadvantages coming from tiny variations

You are welcome ;-)
I’m a new HEMA practitioner, and I decided to study Fiore. Thanks for your instructional videos. They are really helpful!
You are welcome!
yes yes yes ci piace questo video
Bueno!
Great content! Nice explanations and the diffrent camera angels help a lot. Thanks for the video my guy
Great video, Fede! Fantastic look at a fairly basic principle but taking lots of aspects into account. I'm liking the Frontale parry more and more.
Thanks ;-)
I love interactions from the bind
And those are all winden :)
Great video.

Amazing video! See you in 10 months for the next one hehe

How come this is 10 months later!?
Uh?? :O
@@FedericoMalagutti It seems your last (well, 1st) Longsword Techniques Compendium video was released 10 months ago ;)
@@unicorncz yes, I know it. You know, between me and the content I would like to make there is not only the desire to do it, most of the times, hehe.
