Very valuable lesson. I love your periodic reminder that a real fight will be chaotic. There is no certainty you will always respond quickly to a unexpected confrontation.
Techniques seem cool and are probably important. To me as a self-defender the most important part of it all seems to be relaxed( even when the 'hulk' attacks' you)....
It was obvious until you got to the deets. Great points our dude. I like shaolin jkd wing chun and boxing. If I get time and money I'll train wing chun more and I really rely on my grappling for self defense which didn't work at first without striking because id get messed up badly. Lol. By grappling I am in control and I'm nicer but striking is needed to do anything and I like striking more I don't use it more though I use it almost never. Outside of a car incident I haven't used it in longer than ten years. But you need to strike to be able to grapple just like you need to be able to counter strike on defense to be able to use offense.
So what if you don't know what he's going to do and he fakes and then throws the punch from the correct distance? When you know what's coming you can do anything....
you cover the area most likely to get hit. you set this up by body language. if you want to bait the guy in to throwing a left, angle your horse so that your right side is facing him a little more. he could still faint. but you would cover the right side side and move your horse in to your right so that if he faints a left haymaker and then throws a right cross or straight punch, you are moving to his left already so you create distance and distance = time to readjust and correct your mistake. most people , if they are gonna throw a haymaker like this, it is gonna be with the right hand because that is usually the stronger hand . but you never know what he is gonna do, that is why you have to bait him by opening up one of the gates. he may not take the bait, but that is why footwork is so important. especially "triangle stepping".
This a drill for a certain scenario.Like all styles train certain techniques for different scenarios.No one will know what the opponent is going to do if that was the case then no one would lose a fight
My question is predicated off of striking in defense. We should not be striking unless we know we're about to get hit. This means you can't escape the situation, there's no where to go or you must protect a loved one or some other reason why you can't simply get out of there. This is the only legal reason to strike another individual. Ok with that out of the way, it seems that if possible, the best solution is to simply blade off at a 45 degree angle as the opponent comes in so that you are now next to him & off to the side. This obviously puts you in a position where you can use two arms & one leg where he really only has one arm. Having said that, I realize that there may be times where you do not have room to maneuver & if that's the case you have no choice but to come straight forwards. I think though that the best solution is to stay relaxed & if it's an obvious threat, the moment they come into punch, kick or grab, to then blade off, put them at the disadvantage of time, space, & momentum & then go in like lightning. They are off balance, have only one weapon, are easily controlled, & you have more time to react. In other words, use the Jeet principle only in this case we're talking about footwork.
Take a very small roller made of wood and gently tap your arms. That will get your arms use to hits. Eventually after doing it for awhile your bone density will increase and it won't hurt anymore. Your arms will he as hard as baseball bats.
I enjoy watching your video a lot! I have a question as I tested your techniques. I can't really stop a punch by hitting the hinge. If Chris looses his shoulder or body enough, he will be able to absorb your force to the hinge and borrow that force to give a more powerful right punch. It really happened in our practice. What do you think? Keep up the good work!
i prefer the open-handed defense... a closed fist might end up in to the teeth of an opponent and even tho it might be effective.. A small wound resulting from a strike towards an infected might transfer this infection. You won short term you're stuck with an infected knuckle... Please correct me! Regards
@@aidenfisher5679 i did not mean it in the sense of jabbing with the fingers, rather striking with the part of the palm that connects to the wrist; think of when objects like wooden planks or bricks are beingg broken...
I can't see any advantage of NOT blocking & hitting at the same time or block/block - now sure u can block or parry and not have time nor posture to hit - but why not block everytime u hit?
I hate to even correct this because I don't like giving con artists actual knowledge, but maybe he will not put his students in danger by teaching stuff that is moronically wrong...pause the video at 2:37. look at his feet/stance/horse. If his student puts any real pressure on him, Adam will fall down (to his left side), because he literally will have nothing to keep him up.his foot placement is the opposite of what it should be in this demonstration. Do this experiment, do what Adam is doing exactly like he is showing and get someone to slowly throw the haymaker that his student is doing but get them to follow through all the way with force...slowly. as if the haymaker was trying to go straight through the target (which is how they work in real life). You'll notice that unless you switch your lead leg really fast, you'll just fall on your ass. Now, switch your legs so that your right leg is in front and the left is in back. you'll notice that your back leg can now support the impact and you don't fall down. This is such a simple and CLEARLY demonstrable thing that it kinda shows either Adam is purposely teaching things wrong or he has never used what he shows in a real "situation" involving pressure. if you don't get the footwork right, nothing taught in wing Chun will work. the footwork is more important than the hands because if the feet aren't right, you can't do basic stuff.
@@screamtheguy6425 that would be kinda awesome if he really did. I'll check it out. also, there was no hate implied, just a sort of annoyance ...like watching someone drive with one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake and you're just trying to explain basic logic and biomechanics and you know the person is gonna try and argue and you're like "dude, this isn't a personal choice deal, there is literally a correct way and a way that will get you and someone else hurt, just try it the other way and watch it actually work way better".
At 2:37, Adam's taking pressure with his left leg. His legs are wide enough apart for this to work. Now, granted, the position is weaker than the opposite (the one you suggested).

Excellent set of techniques. Very useful.
I like your explanation for all your lessons
Another great lesson. 🇨🇾🙏🏽🐺

Nice
Amazing thanks Adam 🙏🏾
very nice move awesome
I like the end when he was holding his arm lol.
Thank you. That was very thorough and informative.
Thank you...well done!
Very helpful for us

Great video and explanation !! Also, I feel for Chris... I also have bruising up the insides of my arms from training :)

I personally like block and hit at the same time. You can get the first shot in and end the fight.

@@aidenfisher5679 point taken
The system is designed to deflect, not blocking.
I can't see any advantage of NOT blocking & hitting at the same time or block/block - now sure u can block or parry and not have time nor posture to hit - but why not block everytime u hit?
@Aiden Fisher - its the most efficient - it's done in OFFENCE!! omg
@Aiden Fisher - no, sorry, - you're gonna have that other hand in your pocket?🤣
@Aiden Fisher - you read my thoughts - armchair fighter lolz

👍✌💪
Wing Chun has to have clinch like Muay Thai right
It has and more
Dummy form
Good fighter anyway I’d roll that hehe I grew up around some Chinese skateboard ninjas be afraid be very afraid hehe

adam chan is no con artist dude
Watch his new video about you.
He addressed your hater comment.

Ha Daryl I just looked at your channel and guess what it has no content . . . . why is that?
