Striking and power development workshop

We began by punching from static with no legs or hips to show how week

Then main points on cross

1) Slightly longer stance
2) Heel WELL off the floor - exact opposite to Iai. But don't pirhouette. Facing foot turned in slightly, hips facing square.
3) Keep hands up by face and elbows IN. Chicken wings elbows are a problem
4) Pulling left hand right back as you punch and slightly lean in gives you much more reach

When i relaxed and focussed on the punches, much better results

Weight shifting
Slightly shift weight back on right foot before propelling forward. We did this is in exagerrated way but dont over exagerrate

Hooks
1) Keep hands higher and parallel to floor

Uppercut
Drop weight down, then corkscrew up again, keeping elbows and hands in close

ELBOWS IN
RELAX
HEEL UP
WEIGHT SHIFT FORWARD OR CORKCREW UP
pull right back with left hand (which is by face) to really get hip twist
