Edit: Page 92 deals more with kneeling attacks, but really, couldn't the same type of training be done standing? Why specifically kneeling with both knees on the ground?
It takes out the instability factor present in unconditioned/unconnected legs. You get a direct path to the ground so you can focus on working the middle and upper body in a connected fashion.
Helps to connect the upper with the middle. Its not a bad training tool in the beginning.
