    The twist can feel counter intuitive. Pulling your shoulder back and chambering your punch on the same side as the knee that comes up helped me, next is having the punch and the kick trade places (back kick goes back, punch goes forward) do that several times and when it feels coordinated add tiny hop. Thanks again for the entertaining, educational, inspirational lesson.

Not bothered about flashlights though, but bust out the stinger and tomahawks. Respect. Keep safe.

  • @duaneutter8213
    @duaneutter8213 2 года назад +2

    Seems like a good technique to learn and play around with. Being able to work “off balance” in a controlled sense keeps opponents from being able to time you or adapt to your rhythm. But I would be real careful using this against a crowding fighter who steps into the attack or who comes forward in angles like a forward side-step.
    Now that I think about it, if you have an opponent that is starting to tire and cover up more, this would be a great way open him up. I’m going to have to mull this around some more.

    I learned a weird combo from this old Thai fellow in Wa state named Loochian(sp) that we just called the Loochian Punch. He would do a right rear leg push kick then pull that leg back like he was doing a back kick with same leg without it touching the ground . At the same time he threw a straight right. It had surprising amount of power but I never learned how or why to set it up. I just figured maybe it was to catch somebody trying to close the gap

    In most other sports we call that "moving." Of course your mass is temporarily out of equilibrium when you make a fast positional movement, lol. The important thing is that you're intentionally off-balancing yourself in a controlled and purposeful manner.

    To me it's a fake teep into a straight left. so in my mind I switch stance during the punch but come back to orthodox right after it.
