| an experiment with offensive strikes part 1 hand held and punches i used a pickaxe handel diferent punch types (hook, uppercut etc) a swinging punching bag (for measurements) and a digital recorder (verify and record measurements) to determine the strenths of different body motions before stiking i tried to keep as best i could my arm motion, arm intensity and the area where i struck the punching bag the same i made the following list of motions for a hand held weapon in ascending order of strength according to my research (the swing was from my right to my left baseball swing type arc) stationary - swing 1 step leading leg - swing 1 step following leg - swing 360 spin - swing i found similar results with basic punches first i concentrated on similar leg motions also in ascending (the puncheses i used were a basic jab, straight, cross, overhand, hook and uppercut) stationary - punch 1 step leading leg - punch 1 step following leg - punch 360 spin - punch note it was hard to jab out of a 360 spin and finally i tested the basic punches against one another with as little leg movement as possible jab cross - straight overhand - uppercut hook i did this to better understand the mechanics and strengths of certain strikes the kicks are pending wat you guys think |
