Sylvie's Technique Vlog - Body Position First (11 min)
🕑 Added 2019-10-21 06:17:59 +0000 UTCMy long form technique vlogs for patrons are all about real time things I'm working on. Sometimes they are trends and tendencies I've discovered and thought about over time, sometimes they are specific things I've uncovered in training and filming with krus in the Library. This one is a bit of both. Filming with Napapol (you can see the Muay Thai Library session here), and then subsequently training with him again afterwards made me super aware that my hand position before throwing my cross has been all over the place. It's one place when shadowing, another when on the bag, another on pads and another in sparring or fights. It really got me thinking about how in my training I have to be making all these map up and be the same, if I want to bring my training skills into the ring. This technique vlog is all about focusing on that, in all the things I train, something you might want to think about as well! Thanks for being a supporter of this kind of content, and all the things I do.

The hand movement is a lot like throwing darts.

WOW! Yes, damn it, yes! Okay, now that I've gotten that out. This is exactly what has been "stumping" me. Well, it's not a stump it is an awareness. I'm thinking it has to do with the severity of injury. If shadow is zero and fighting is 10 then pads with Kru would be in the 6-8 range for me, which distorts my natural flow. That being said, you are completely correct and on to something as those we admire whether it's Sagat or Tyson as examples look the same; body position-punching, kicking, No Matter the circumstance. We would recognize them anywhere, any time. I love that you are exploring this. Thank you!!

It's more about how where that starting position is affects the overall trajectory of the punch. But it does help hide it as well
Is bringing back your hand to the "James Dean" position, rather than firing from where your hand is, not "telegraphing" or cuing your opponent about your intention to punch?
