Close Quarter Elbows

In this video I go over a very important point on throwing elbows at close quarters.
Many fighters muffle their elbow strikes at close range due to not understanding how to throw them at that range.
Having an understanding on how to do it will enable you to strike very powerfully and explosively.
So watch and learn how to use elbows at close range to destroy your opponent instead of just tickling him.

Brilliant !!!!!! I never thought of that. I had to go back to some of your older videos to see what else I was missing.

There's a lot of information on all my videos, sometimes even I learn a thing or two. =0)

Pinky up makes such a big difference, especially for people with pointy elbows, it make the elbow go from a mace to an axe!

Your channel is the best. Thank you.

[@BareFisted]

Thanks.

Genius! I love it!

3:04 master of a second plan ;D

[@Liquidcadmus]

All your videos are extremely helpful and well explained. I am a very short guy so I can't reach most guys faces with my elbows, could you do a video about striking the body with elbows? (for a short guy facing a tall guy this is very helpful)

[@BareFisted]

Will do, keep an eye out.

Great instruction as always! Can you give some advice on how to defend shirt grabs, takedowns and stuff like that? And how to beat a wrestler? I did a boxing only for now, and im afraid of going to the ground in streetfight

[@BareFisted]

I'll have to make a few videos on these subjects. In the mean time you should learn how to fight on the ground and how to get back up, nothing fancy just basic ways or options on dealing with the ground.

Very interesting so with the punches and the elbows as im dropping my weight does my foot drop before the impact or hit so to speak ?

[@BareFisted]

Your weight drops as you make impact.

Interesting video on how to throw powerful elbows. What are thoughts on following through with an elbow on the same arm your a punch? Like landing a horizontal elbow off a hook or vertical elbow off an uppercut? Is it a viable strategy and are there any other considerations

[@BareFisted]

If you are not balanced as you throw your elbow, your follow thru can destabilize you and open you up for a counter attack if you miss. Throwing elbows and punches on the same side works great provided you train them properly.

[@Natum990]

Thanks for the reply.

Oh ok makes it easier
