back to covering


Explanation:
httpshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covering_(martial_arts)://en.w...

Covering in martial arts is the act of protecting against an opponent's strikes by using the arms and shoulders to block and absorb the impact of strikes on the head and torso and prevent injury.

По-русски чаще встречается "укрытие", но дело такое тонкое и специфичное, что я бы заглянула в ссылки, приведенные в статье Вики, чтобы проверить употребление в англоязычных источниках.
