This program teaches you how to develop flexibility and corresponding strength in the wrist and forearm to properly and safely position the hand for the palm strike.
Here is the full explanation of the program.
Palm vs Fist
The palm is not used as often as the fist in most styles of martial arts. Usually a situation as well as individual preference dictates the choice between the palm and fist, both have their advantages and dis-advantages.
Some advantages of the palm strike are as follows:
- Padded striking surface, thus less chances of injury.
- Less joints to stabilize and thus less force lose upon impact.
- Can be performed at a closer distance.
There are disadvantages as well, compared to the fist. Some of them are listed below:
- Larger surface area. Thus less penetration and harder to sneak in.
- Less reach.
- Flexibility and strength of the wrist is needed to execute properly.
Of course this is not a complete list.
Full Power
To get full power from the straight palm strike, one needs to keep the forearm in line with the target. This of course calls for at least a 90 degree angle in the wrist (the hand must be vertical as the forearm is horizontal).
More than 90% of people don’t have this flexibility. This means that to keep the palm in the right position, the forearm position is adjusted to a partial incline. This lead to biomechanically disadvantageous strikes, causing less force to be delivered than during the correct strike.
Thus flexibility development alone, increases the force delivered by an open hand significantly.
With flexibility must come strength. The strength comes in two parts:
- To prevent injury upon impact.
- To maintain the correct hand position throughout the strike.
In this program. We take you through everything required for the proper strike:
- Conditioning
- Flexibility
- Strength
