The rope is in danger! Safety problems to be understood before the first rope binding

We all know that B in BD5M corresponds to bondage, and of course some people call it "rope binding" or "rope art". As the name implies, tying with a rope gives people a sense of tension. The art of rope is to express a sense of art with rope! The difference is that tying refers to an action, while rope art is closer to art, but there will be some complete problems in the practice of rope tying and rope art, especially when tying rope for the first time.

On one occasion, a senior rope division said when talking about rope tying/rope art: "Even the top rope division still has risks when tying ropes. There is no such thing as a zero-risk rope tying. An experienced and safety-oriented rope division can reduce many risks in the process of tying ropes, but it does not mean that risks can be completely eliminated. " So what are the security risks of rope binding? How to avoid these risks?

One of the risks: rope division is not skilled.

There are many people who call themselves rope division in the rope art circle, but their professional ability is not great. Most of the so-called rope division only learns through the relevant video text tutorial lights, and has no practical experience to have safety awareness, so it will have a bad experience for the bound person in the first practice, and even bring some physical and mental harm, so it is particularly important to choose a professional rope division! Choose a person who is good at communication, has a correct understanding of human body structure, knows the potential risks of rope binding and knows how to deal with emergencies.

Discussion on the measurement standard and misunderstanding of rope master;

1, many years' experience is not necessarily equal to professional qualified rope division, because professional experience in rope division is only the foundation! Some people have limited tying skills, but they are very confident in their tying skills. He said that he has many years of experience, studied under celebrities and has rich practical experience. Check whether this situation is true first, don't just believe one side of the story. Don't confuse arrogance or feeling good about yourself with confidence.

2. Comment on whether a rope division is professional. As long as you test his basic knowledge of ergonomics and know some forbidden areas in the process of bondage, generally speaking, a professional rope division will ask you in advance where your body is weak (such as an old injury).

Do they have the right tools to cut the rope in an emergency? Such as EMT first aid scissors or rescue hooks. The head of EMT emergency scissors is round and has a bending angle, so it is easy to reach between the rope and the human body, and it is easy to cut people with ordinary straight scissors. If you can have an EMT first aid scissors, it will be very beneficial. You can provide it to the rope hand to ensure that you can have a reliable way to disarm the alarm in an emergency.

Risk 2: There are many unpredictable factors in the binding process.

Many people think that rope binding is actually very simple, but in fact, the "masters" in the field of rope binding will pay attention to all kinds of details and be proficient in ergonomics!

1, anatomy;

Having knowledge of anatomy and human structure and understanding common vulnerable areas can make your rope binding experience safer and more enjoyable.

If a nerve is injured, your body will lose feeling, or a part of your body may not be able to move. This is obviously a very important safety issue, so make sure that your nerves are not injured. Unfortunately, this is one of the most common injuries in rope binding, especially hanging on the ground.

2. Nervous and circulatory system;

When your hand, or any part of your body, feels numb or stings like a needle, it's your body reminding you that something is wrong. The two most common causes of tingling are affecting blood circulation or compressing nerves. The feeling of nerve compression is unique. Most of them will numb or sting your palms. Its characteristic is that a small part of the palm "only a part" will be numb, such as numbness of two fingertips.

Another common symptom of circulatory problems is that your palms, arms, legs and whole legs feel numb or almost unconscious. Nerve compression is a small part of numbness, and blood circulation is a large part of overall numbness. Insufficient blood circulation does not mean nerve damage. What is more troublesome is that the symptoms of these two problems are very similar. What kind of discomfort belongs to the nerve is felt by the tied person. The usual criteria are tingling, powerlessness and unconsciousness of a specific finger or fingertip. If your whole hand is numb and you feel tingling, the symptoms of blood circulation will "overwhelm" the symptoms of nerve compression, and only some hands will not feel numb.

The danger of nerve injury is that it usually happens suddenly, and when you notice it, the injury has already happened. In contrast, if the blood doesn't circulate, you will feel uncomfortable first, but you won't get hurt. Therefore, communication in the knot is very important. If something feels wrong when tying, immediately tell the rope hand to loosen it quickly, which can reduce the risk of injury. Nerve damage will accumulate, and being pressed by dangerous ropes for a long time will cause more damage.

3. Wrist posture;

People's wrists are fragile, especially the groove of wrist joint and the inside of wrist, where many nerves and blood vessels are exposed. If you have a lot of experience, you will have an arm placement that suits you best.

4. Dangerous rope binding position; Dangerous knot binding position: the knot is tied near the groove of the palm and wrist, which is unsafe. The wrist joint has radial nerve and ulnar nerve. In various forms of rope binding, this wrong binding method is the main reason for the loss of sensation of the index finger and thumb.

Better rope binding position

Keep the knot away from the palm of your hand, avoid the wrist joints that are easy to be injured, and hit the arm position to avoid nerve damage.

5, arm upper arm;

Radial nerve is an important nerve to control arm movement and sensory function. Injury to the radial nerve may cause the wrist and fingers to be unable to lift, or some areas of the arm may lose sensation.

It is difficult to find the exact location of the radial nerve and avoid it. Everyone's position is actually different (even much worse). Generally speaking, the groove between deltoid muscle and triceps muscle is fragile. When the rope is tied to the arm, the tied person gives feedback to the rope hand and tells him how you feel. Remember, most of the symptoms of compression to the radial nerve are numbness in the palms and fingertips.

In the process of tying the master's small hand, if you feel tingling, it may be nerve compression. Please ask the rope hand to fine-tune the tying position of the upper arm immediately, and the feeling will be much worse after adjustment. Find the right place to put down the rope,

6, underarm; Axillary is also a place full of nerve tissue, and brachial plexus contains radial nerve, median nerve and axillary nerve. The rope loop or underarm fixing bolt tied by the owner's small hand is not allowed to be pressed too deep into the underarm. Avoid knotting under your arms. There are some ways to tie the chest rope without tying the arm, which may transfer the pressure of tying the rope to the armpit. Note that the rope near the armpit should not have bumps such as knots and crosses, which will easily oppress the axillary nerves.

7. communication;

Before tying the rope, it is important to tell the rope hand about your health. Internal health problems, whether there is asthma, arrhythmia, heart disease, circulatory or nervous system damage. Temporary problems, whether there are sprains, stiff neck, abrasions, etc.

Emotional communication, anything you don't want to touch, previous tying experience, etc. It's important to give your tied state back to the rope player and give you the feeling of being tied. Sometimes a small adjustment can change the overall feeling of bondage, make it safer, let the rope hand know the tingling pain on any finger, and let him improve the problem. The sooner you remind the problem, the better the whole process.

8. Pressure;

Rope binding will produce different degrees of pressure on the body, especially hanging on the ground. Even some floor movements have great pressure on the body. To keep healthy, exercise can enhance muscle strength and help the body bear these physical pressures. A healthy and strong person can bear the bondage for a long time, the blue skin can recover quickly, the breathing will not be disordered, and the nerve will recover faster when it is compressed.

Another important thing is the emotional stress in the process of rope binding. Be mentally prepared before tying the rope to relax and calm down, but still be vigilant. This mood is more helpful.

9. Stretching;

Good body flexibility can adjust the rope more. Flexibility cannot be changed immediately, but it can be strengthened by continuous stretching. Stretch and warm up before tying. If you know what posture you will be tied up in the back, you can exercise that part of your muscles to stretch and relax.

In the process of binding, contracting muscles or stretching body posture to adjust the center of gravity in a limited space can help blood circulation, relieve numbness and reduce muscle soreness. If your finger starts to sting, please tell your rope hand immediately, and clench your fist hard, and then slowly relax it to help relieve the sting.

10, temperature; If you are cold, you can bear less rope than you think. When the temperature is low, the blood circulation of human body will slow down, muscle elasticity will be poor, joint fluid secretion will be insufficient, and the overall softness of the body will become worse. Try to keep the indoor temperature warm, especially when you are naked. If you want to be tied outdoors or in a cold space, wear warm clothes and drink plenty of hot water. It is best to avoid extreme temperatures.

1 1, gourmet; Don't skip any meal before tying the rope, and don't tie the rope when you are hungry or hypoglycemia. Eat snacks or sugary drinks at the end of the knot or after the knot. The posture of rope binding may be static, but in the case of binding, it takes a lot of energy to maintain the posture and support your weight through the rope, which is quite hard for the body. If there is a dynamic posture change, it is more like strenuous exercise. Don't have an empty stomach, drink plenty of water.

12, when unbound;

When the rope is untied, you may naturally relax your arms and your forearms will cross into scissors. This is not recommended. This position will make it difficult for the rope hand to untie the remaining knots, and it will also make the rope loop tighten your forearm and compress the nerves.

After the rope is tied, it is almost the same as after exercise. Doing some stretching exercise is very helpful to prevent injury. It is recommended to do some gentle stretching exercises and slowly stretch your pricked part. Violent and big movements may damage your muscles and joints.
