Sunday 27th February 2005 at 10:24 It's all in the stance. Your power is going to come from being in proper position and using proper form. Start out with your hands to your side standing straight and take a step forward with your left foot (mine is opposite because I'm a southpaw). Point the right foot at a 45 degree angle. Your midsection should also face 45 degrees so that you can leave less body to hit. Tuck your elbows into your body and bring your hands up to chin level with your foreknuckles spaced with your eyes. Your shoulders should naturally roll forward. Tuck the chin down an inch or so and look straight. The right foreknuckles should be close to the chin and the left foreknuckles about an extra inch away. Bend at the knees, keep weight evenly distributed, but slightly on the balls of the feet. If you throw a punch, turn your shoulders over to put your body into it. Then most kicks can be done with your leading foot. Just turn on the ball of your rear foot just past 90 degrees to throw your side and roundhouse kicks and use your rear leg like you're breaking in a door to throw front kicks and knees. On the ground all the power is in leverage and what position you have. Standing up power will come from proper balance, a solid starting stance and good follow through to finish the strikes. |
