English translation:disengage and attack
Explanation:
The purpose of 伏手is to lock up (or engage with) the offender's hand, so that he has no chance to attack; when too much force (or pressure) is applied to the point of contact, your opponent may attempt to disengage and change to a new attacking position or direction, while your own hand (or arm) will not be flexible enough to maneuver a defensive response in time.

You are talking about "咏春拳" isn't it?
