position of fist, on the hip or on the rib?


Recommended Posts

the purpose of the elbow is not to redirect. the elbow is pointy and hard...a imagine something weak like an instep colliding with an elbow. imagine a fist colliding with an elbow... this is a tactic known as a 'destruction'.

I have been known to block with my elbows this way in sparring at my TKD classes. I get lots of comments on how I have bruised ankles, shins, insteps, etc. in this way. It can be effective.
