9th in a Series Palm strikes, elbows etc for MMA with Street applications

Punching people in the head when you are not wrapped and taped with gloves on is not generally a good idea. Hands are not made to strike round hard objects that are moving. Practicing palm strikes, slaps, and elbows when doing bag work trains and prepares you for effective striking in street/self-defense situations. Make this a regular part of your bag work. Use the same movement and principles that this series is based on. Smooth, relaxed efficient motions and energy transfers.

I like your comment on slaps. Thanks for posting.

[@SystemOfStrategy]

I have busted both hands more than once, a slow learner I guess.

[@danielschimmel8779]

@@SystemOfStrategy Thank you for responding. I often wonder how effective slaps would be in self-defense. I studied Goju-Ryu karate and the style is mainly geared for close-in fighting and uses palm, elbow, and back of wrist techniques. I know you are legit, I plan on working on more slapping techniques.

@@danielschimmel8779 I have knocked people out with palm strikes, and it stung, however I did not injure my hand. Basically hands are made to grab things not strike hard objects so hitting people in the head is always a risk.

Great video! I have a kinda off topic question, where can I get reliable well made Katanas and wakizashis. I’m looking to buy a set for myself, your katana videos have inspired me!
Thanks!

Thanks for the video, but one thing is the audio is pretty low.

[@SystemOfStrategy]

Thank you and working on that. It seems to be platform dependent,
