Spielwurfel Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Did he already made you rip a paper of a newspaper with a punch?? But the paper musn't be holded by someone in both sides of it... Just in one side... In other words, it must be hanged up... It looks impossible, but, after many tries, I riped it... Try it... It's good to train your punch...
Topic Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 Do you mean hold it at one end and and not to hold it at the othwer end and try to rip it?

White Warlock Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 not difficult. one practice i do is to one-strike the panels off of cardboard boxes. it's in the speed and the hooking of your punches. Good practice for adding some depth to your hooks and uppercuts. "When you are able to take the keys from my hand, you will be ready to drive." - Shaolin DMV TestIntro
Spielwurfel Posted September 5, 2004 Author Posted September 5, 2004 How big was the peice of papeR? The first try to rip was with two entires pieces of newspapers papers... Then when I ripped it, it was just one, than half of one...
WapCaplet Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 How does punching paper train you to throw a real punch? Maybe I'm not understanding how this "drill" is supposed to work, but I don't see the application here. I'm not 'dissing' it, just need a better explanation of how it works. I think I'm also having trouble understanding your English, Spielwurfel, but I guess that's because you are from Brazil. No worries about that, I'm just not able to visualize what you are explaning and can't see how punching paper proves anything? Wap "Fighting fighting.

CanuckMA Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 The paper both flexes and moves. The ability to puncture an unrestrained piece of paper requires explosive speed. You need to punch through the paper BEFORE the impact moves it.
manuelito Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Das hat unser Sensei von uns noch nicht verlangt. Ist aber bestimmt ein Versuch wert. our sensei has not made us do this. but this is a good idea to try. pain is weakness leaving the body.fear is the mind killer, i will face my fear and let it pass threw me. from the movie "dune"i know kung fu...show me. from the movie "the matrix"
