    Rule of thumb: hard to soft and soft to hard - use the hard fist to attack the stomach, ribs, liver, etc. Use the palm to attack hard surfaces, like the face.

      @@listen7634 well, many weak knuckles get broken when they make contact with the forehead. The softer areas like the liver, are effective, but also safer. Using this rule makes yourself safer, but dangerous and stronger to others.

      RBC Gaming Vlogs and more! I could be wrong but pretty sure your palm would break fairly easy against anyone’s forehead unless your a trained fighter with rigorously conditioned hands. However, a trained fighter would never aim for the forehead bc they know how strong it is. This is part of the reason why you tuck your chin in. They would aim for the liver but I think “soft” isn’t the best choice of words. Vulnerable would be better.

      I got charges dropped cause I punched this guy through an open window. He grabbed a hammer, swung it at me missed and broke his own window. I pulled him out and fed him a few knees and left quickly as he was already on the phone with the police. He told the police I punched in his window. No cuts of course and all the glass on the outside. Charges dropped simply cause he lied, they didn't even question why I was there in court or if I punched him at all.

      This actually works very well. I remember a few years ago reading about a woman who was at home at the time that a man broke into her house to rape her. She submitted to the rape, but once the man dropped his pants to reveal his genitals the woman grabbed his testicles, pulled, twisted, and squeezed. She led him out of her house. the man was hitting her and doing is best to get her hand off of his testicles but she kept on holding on too them until she finally got him out of her front door and then pushed him into the snow off of her porch. It was February at the time and there was a lot of snow on the ground. She called the police and the police followed his foot prints to his house. He lived only about a half a block a way. When the police got to his house they looked inside the front window and saw the perpetrator on the floor of his living room, naked from the waste down, holding onto his family that was between his legs. The police walked into his house and arrested him.

I was a small guy and a new immigrant back in high school, some assholes demanded money from me, and I grabbed a chair and was able to walk away. I was caught another day and fought back, I got some punches and I didn't score any, but I always aimed for eyes, groin, or alike. They knew I'm not a person for fight, but if I score, I might kill them or disable them permanently. Then they don't bother me anymore. I ain't stupid beasts who loves to exchange punches or kicks, no fight or fight for life.

      Not true, Bruce said use what works for you, disregard the rest, well if like Bruce you had training or like me by the 2 best Tae Kwon Do Masters on Earth ever, namely Jhoon Goo Rhee and Suu Kyi Yeoung then yes, at green light or long distance fighting the kick is perfect for interception and if trained in TKD above all else, some forms of Kung Fu and some forms of high proficient Kick Boxing, then there is no way 1 or 2 or 3 fighters can touch you or get close enough to land a punch or a shove or any close quarters fighting.

      If taught for real life and self improvement and not tournament safe fighting or glorified sparring with a partner under the safety of rules and regulations, then fly or high kicking unless highly proficient is useless., the side kick is highly potent, the kick to the groin highly potent and if fast and powerful then a front round house and the standard reverse round house kick, are what is best.

    • @sword-and-shield
      @sword-and-shield 5 років тому

      @Alacycle I would say grabbing is less likely, but possible. More likely is just pushing the leg upward, very high, causing them to lose footing and crash down backward onto their neck, with your body weight coming down on top of them.

    • @sword-and-shield
      @sword-and-shield 5 років тому

      @Alacycle No problem, my mistake was thinking your original post was for me ...it wasn't. Now, for my opinion , blocking kicks is a huge mistake, or going for a grab, I see it a lot in mma as well.The best move for any kick waist level or higher is to close in, the sweep is one way, capture can sometimes work, but always close in hard, it will save you in the end, because if it becomes habit they will never land one with enough power to do anything.. The most devastating move we used bouncing, was called "Tree Topping"...It is closing in getting under the leg and lifting it sending them crashing back on their neck, followed by my body weight on top, usually KO'd them. ALWAYS keep them kicks at the knee or lower, or devastation is very possible, concerning street fighting anyway.

    If you are worried about hurting your hands in a fight, don't fight. Biggest mistake is going into a fight and thinking you won't get hurt or worrying about getting hurt. I would argue that you can still injure your wrist with a palm strike. The most meaningful difference would be the reach between a palm strike and a punch. Test it out yourself, a punch has at least a 3" advantage in range, which is huge in any kind of fight.

    There are pros and cons to both. The palm has high layers of fat, so this will be less damaging upon impact (due to the fat acting as a cushion). Open fingers leaves them all prone to breaking - if you miss with palm. And there is about 4 inches less reach with a palm strike. You can get more power in a 'jab' or straight lead by using opponent's momentum. You make them run into your lead and this is like running into a wall. It also feels entirely natural to use the fist as a striking weapon.

    Just a note where his thumb is . A lot of guys break their thumb like this. It should be tucked sleightly behind the middle joint of the index finger like a little pocket. Make kind of thumb muscle. This will protect it much better if you have to punch. Mostly the thumb breaks getting caught on the side of someone's head when they are moving. Boxers are worse. They are used to their thumbs being taped wide for the big gloves. Then they get in a street fight and break their thumbs. Thanks for going over the palm strikes I like this

    Good video Dan Lok. I think you are correct. And, I have been teaching this in my classes for more decades than I care to mention. lol Punching is an advanced skill that requires precise accuracy. It does have much more extension than the palm strike. But, the palm has a larger striking surface and it is hard to miss even for beginners. It is important to tilt it slightly inward to avoid jamming your wrist. My focus point is the heel edge of the hand below the pinky finger not center of palm.

    If you dont think you can mess people up with palm strikes watch early pancrace in Japan. Bas would mess people up. And contrast that with early UFC tournaments where fighters would scratch left and right between rounds because of broken hands. The reason they had to set up a super-fight to have the rematch between Gracie and Shamrock was because after UFC 1 Shamrock kept breaking his hand in the the tournaments.
    That said you can punch bare-knuckle without breaking your fist but it is a skill and it is still more risky than palm strikes.

      I feel my wrists safer in palmstrike than regular strike, since I'm used to support my bodyweight on my bent wrist, but flexing it the other way I don't get far.
      If I bet, I'd say that I could still hit with the upper part of the palm without damaging my wrist. However, if I hit with my fingers, i'll either break my wrist or fingers.
      If you want to reduce the risk, you can roll your fingers in, in something called a leopard-fist (it's like unrolling your regular fist one step to reveal your palm). That greatly reduces the risk of getting entangled and it also reduces the maximum leverage on your wrist.
