I punch like a sissy !

[Margelatu]

Guys, I need some urgent advice from you, the experts out there. I recently found out the hard way that... well, my punch is not what it used to be ( I haven't been involved in a fight in a long, long time ). Are there any ways of fortifiyng my fist, provided that I'm mostly on the road now? Thanx in advance to you and to my legs, which are still strong and saved my ass ;)

Punch a makiwara, you build up more calcium in your bones.

Get some knuckledusters for that little bit of oomph.
Failing that, get someone else to do your punching for you.

Do what I do and kick

Something made of wood or metal, about two inches in diameter and about two feet long works well, just as long as you aren't bringing a club to a gunfight.

Rule #1: Bring enough gun.


...but more importantly, why did you get in a physical altercation...describe the situation and could there have been steps to avoid it?

God I can't post it again so soon. The details of the technique is: raise one hand in the air with arm outstretched to the ceiling, point the other to the ground, arm outstretched. Do this at approximately 5m distance from your opponent. Start circling the arms as rapidly as possible and build up speed - in order to maximise your chi you need at least 90RPM. Once you have reached maximum speed then advance quickly on your opponent - in this way chairs, tables, even walls will not be an obstacle - all will be swept aside by the sheer power of this kata. Good luck grasshopper.

Learning martial Arts or fighting on the road is tough. Pretty much every country in the world has a boxing gym, western boxing probably has the best punching out of all the fighting styles. You could also buy some videos and practice on your own but nothing beats live training.

I tried that on Saturday night and got my ass kicked. Thanks a lot.

It works for me.

In my experience this is almost always a failure to achieve the minimum RPM. Did you measure it?

No better way to learn how to fight, than to get your ass kicked a couple times.

Makes more sense. 'Specially with a pair of these on.




Ofcourse, that's assuming you have the pre-made in China docs. The new ones would probably fall apart on your walk to the fight.

Don't fuck with Sissy.
