is there any special way to take hits other than just keep running at a guy who outways u by 50 llbs and there is no where else to go

[bigDman]

umm if you cnat move out the way of doge it just get ready for it.... thats about all you can do and 50lbs means nothing ive stayed up after hits from people way bigger then me just mussle them out and put more into it then they are

[xSURFERx]

ya 50lbs isnt that big of a diffrence, and anyway jsut take the hit if you fall get back up and start playing agian, if you dont fall thats great and keep playing

[FredtheCat]

If he's that much bigger than you, he'll probably just try to run you over, so I'd just go for a basic split/face/whatever dodge at the last second.

[timmy]

If he's bigger than you, when you fall, just laugh. There's nothing worse than knowing you went all out on someone smaller than you, and they laughed in your face about it.

[laxkay841]

being a girl...i don't get hit that much except for like playing around with guys at school...{{{yeah i play guys lax with them...seriously}}} when i get hit really hard and fall i get back up and laugh and say "geez...is that ALL YOU GOT?" yes in some cases some of the guys have taken it the wrong way and hit me again...but in other cases they felt like idiots...but hey it works for me!

Woah, way to re-word my post. Keep up the good work.

[SDPirate]

just roll off it if you can. or
like lil jon says..."get low"

[americandreamer]

basically what everyones trying to say is dont be a ***** take the hit be a man and if you get seriously hurt i never said this

[faceitoff]

just roll off it if you can. or
like lil jon says..."get low"

Lil' John says, "HUWAT?!?!" Not "Get low."

[bulaxstud1]

If you know, with out a doubt, that you're gonna get popped and popped hard...and probably gonna fall, tighten your body up. That's what I was taught as a wide receiver going over the middle, or a middie looking over my shoulder...tighten up and hold your breath in....sorta tightening up your chest too. ALWAYS get back up.

Lil' John says, "HUWAT?!?!" Not "Get low."

dude i hate lil john he made like millions saying like 3 words, "YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH", "OOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKAAAAYYYYYYY" and my favorite "LEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA"

[Lacrosstitute]

Lil' John says, "HUWAT?!?!" Not "Get low."

Haha. I dunno, you pretty much cant go wrong with anything Lil' Jon has said. I'm gonna have to go with get low on this one. And the best way to take a hit is.... take it. Know it's coming. Also, getting up and laughing helps. Especially if the guy is massive. I would know, since I'm like a 5'6 freshman and in fall and summer league I have to play these massive seniors. Just dont worry about it, you will get knocked down in this game sometime or another.

[midman17]

work on your calfs and thighs and then dig your feet in push off really hard (dont leave the ground or you will fly back) and hold on tight.

[CagedRat]

when i get hit really hard and fall i get back up and laugh and say "geez...is that ALL YOU GOT?" yes in some cases some of the guys have taken it the wrong way and hit me again...but in other cases they felt like idiots...but hey it works for me!

haha thats the worst thing you could say. What do you mean is that all you got? they just sat you down on your ***. It's obviously more than you got.

[bigOHlax]

i try to hit them before they hit me
it is obviouse when a long stick is going to try to hit you, you can tell by thew ay they are approaching you, so i just drop a shoulder and try to go through him and it works. and if it doesn't then the two blows liek cancel each other out and you won;t go flying
or you can do what a lot of people do and turn your back to them, if they hit you then they get a penalty

[noseslidesam]

omg are you serious? can you not see she's kidding and just shaking it off.

[PHSLaxDude]

I haven't read all of these posts so I might be repeating someone and if I am sorry but this is what I think. I play D and have dealt with head on hits and I used to play midfield in 3-6th grade so I have been hit though it was weaker back then.

1) If you can make a dodge, try a roll or split dodge.

2) If you can't get out of the way and they are smaller, try a bull dodge.

3) If you can't get out of the way and the guy is slightly bigger or even, brace yourself and after the impact try to keep your weight centered so you don't topple over and keep the stick close to your body so the ball isn't lost.

4) If he is way way bigger and you can't dodge it, try to take a shot across have your body. This way you have a chance of rolling off instead of eating the dirt.

[BagLax]

if there is time, the roll/spin is key. actually today it worked well, plus makes the guy coming at you look like an idiot when all he comes up with is air and falls over from all his momentum.
BUT if you know your getting cranked, bend your knees and try to put your shoulder into him. Take away some of his momentum. If he wants to hurt you, dont make it easy.

duck down ull flip them over it works all the time in hockey

Yes but hip checks are not allowed in hockey, its a clipping penalty and a game eviction if the other player stays down. Its one of the most dangerous hits in the game.

Im sorry but that is the worst advice ever given, hip checks are only ever going to cause injuries.

SUCK IT UP AND BE A MAN d00d. Really though, the worst hits you take you wont see coming so theres not much you can do. But when I know I have to stop a shot or I'm gonna get hit bad, I try to push all the air out of my lungs. That way i dont get the wind knocked out of me. It works for getting punched too, I think thats how Houdini did it.

[AHSmiddie]

big hits suck! well unless your the one making the hit, but just take the hit. i mean if your running straight at a guy thats bigger then you and you dont entend to do a dodge then why are you running at him? and like zak said the worst hits are the ones you cant do anything about.
