A lot of people don't understand what it's like to actually hit someone.. Take for example when u punch someone in the face - it's gonna hurt your hands! You are smacking your bare knuckles up against something as hard as a brick, if not harder. You can cut your knuckles on their teeth etc etc... Too many people get used to smacking into bags and don't realise that it's gonna feel different when u hit someone.

 

Also, if u kick someone in the ribs with a kick it is very likely that u will hear their ribs snap if u kick them hard enough (not so much, but u get the idea - it's hard to actually hear a rib snap and discern it as a snapped rib) ... There are a lot of noises and pains on both sides of the fight...

I was actually about to edit my post and suggest strikes such as ridge-hand *and palm heel* instead of a punch if u don't wanna hurt your knuckles... Good observation rush...

 

I actually prefer to feel the pain in my knuckles, call me a sadomasochist, but at least then i know that it hurt them, cos i can FEEL their pain...

rigehand is a most powerful strike many people dont realize it is more powerful than a fist this is one of the most powerful hand strikes one can deliver.. i personally strike through 14 boards side by side in breaking demonstration if i smack you with one of these you will not remember what your name is afterwards i promise or your money back..i will put your dental plan into effect..this is one of my favorite strikes...

by the way those of you who are constantly saying tae kwondo is only kicks this is one of the most commonly used hand tecniques of taekwondo (taekwondo meaning the way of the hands and feet)....please remember the diffrence of sport and "real" taekwondo...

I dunno about other people, but i knew that.... I'm just concerned that it doesn't do locks...

 

I like backfisting too... my backfist comes out faster than my punch (with leading hand) and i strike then on the cheek... It's fun and it's good for all those times u muck around in bare-knuckle point sparring (which i don' t do too often cos i don't like it much)...

It takes sacrifice to be the best.


There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.

I know, I only fought a few times in school ( not counting the times I didn't get in trouble in). When you are angery enough, you don't feel anything... yes i kown one should allways controll there angry in a fight. You don't feel pain when they hit you and you don't feel pain when you hit them. But afterwards, you hand hurts. That is why I begain punching a hard wooden board with 5 thin layers of wool on it. I take one layer off every week until I am punching hard wooden board.

 

I hope that we wouldn't have to beat somebody up with our skills, only when they are at you frist but don't be picking of weaker people.

the reason i use open hand techniques to the head is because i got a tooth imbedded into my knuckles once and got an infection.

 

angus insted of backfisting to the cheek try the temple, it's much more effective.

 

violence is for protecting life and loved one's not ego. :nod:
