Hip stretch from deep half
Also known as Electric Chair — the canonical term used on this site.
Training background: descriptive
Descriptive — hip-stretch finish from deep half
Hip stretch from deep half is the descriptive name for the electric chair when entered from deep half guard — flagging the hip-stretching mechanic and the deep-half entry context.
Etymology. “Hip stretch” specifies the structural target (the opponent’s hip stretched past safe range); “from deep half” specifies the entry context. The compound predominates in instructional vocabulary that emphasises the entry-and-mechanic specifically.
Mechanics. The deep-half-derived hip stretch loads the opponent’s hip joint via the split-leg geometry of the electric chair — the trapped arm holds the opponent against the rotational hip pressure.
Cross-reference. “Splitsville” and “electric chair” are alternate names. Full mechanical coverage on Electric Chair.
