marksmarkou Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 What is your favourite way to lower you opponents guard and what is your favourite knockout technique. Mine has to be a hook to the body to lower the guard (which is also a hard shot) followed by a hook to the chin. Combined with the body rotation it feels so powerful. https://www.markstraining.com Fighting and Training Methods for Unarmed Martial Artists.

bushido_man96 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I like to get in close, punching the body. In our TKD classes, we can kick to the head, but not punch. So, I like to bring the hands down with punches, and then try to go high. Round kick would be my high kick of choice.A nice, hard, spin heel kick to the body will bring the guard down, too. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G95champ Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Drop the guard by forcing them to block your kicks. In other words attack the arms.In a perfect world if I were given the shot to KO someone just for fun it would have to be with a round elbow I love it LOL. (General George S.

tallgeese Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I wouldn't rely on a single strike ever knocking someong out, that being said, I see what you're getting at.I'd have to say the top choice for me is a flurry to the head, making sure a couple of the shots are hooks. This tends not only to raise the guard but also allows the defenders elbows to drift out as the bend forward slightly. Then thow the uppercut off the back hand. It's worked pretty good for me.A second would be shin kick low w/ power and drop the cross immedtately. It's also caught a few guys for me with good results. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes if my opponent is doing a good job of blocking up top, I'll try a stiff jab to the gut followed by a right haymaker. Another alternative I like is an inside lead cut kick followed by whatever hand combo you'd prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BB of C Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I like faking a hook and then using my free hand to push the arms down. Then, unless they're quicker than me, I can almost do whatever I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must become more than just a man in the mind of your opponent. -Henri Ducard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adonis Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I staying moving around and then after several rounds, after there tired, there hands get sloppy and drop any way then I hit them. This doesn't work if you dont' have good endurance, because then your guard will get sloppy to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenpo4life Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I like to alernate between HARD leg and body kicks. If my survival means your total destruction, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this for sparring only? TKD is well-known for its high kicks, but do you practice hand strikes to the head in separate self-defense techniques/drills? ~ JoeVee Arnis Jitsu/JuJitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
