Concerns a training course for lifeguards

Presas y contrapresas generales y especificas

I think this refers to how a lifeguard would hold a patient to get them out the water, but i can’t find the specific term.

Thank you

General and specific control and countercontrol

I think "presa" is a synonym for "control" here. "Countercontrol" is the way in which the victim reacts to the lifeguard's control, actively or passively.

I hope this helps!
