look up Rick Hotten

[@Z4U3398]

This is a very good insight into the mechanics of movements, really for all too often we focus on the "big" things such as contraction & tensing but we rarely focus on the "small" things e.g. core muscle stremgth or in this case T-spine flexibility. That actually make a huge difference in the efficacy of our execution. Kudos!

[@Ohmz2dmx]

Obi wan said it best to Luke Skywalker, strecth yours feelings. Sijo Lee said it in Enter the Dragon, "Feel, dont think." True content is never enough feel the punch as to stretch all of weight of your own body mass into one single relaxed motion and end with a devastating quick whips. In short use all necessary in one relaxed and, Wapah flow from. -OAM. Thank you Mr. Enkamp you do remind me basics are the essence of what is the pure core of Martial thinking and living.

[@cmdrjontomasson5510]

That was pure gold. I am going to need to be mindful of this in my practice.

An interview with this sensei would be amazing !

[@dannyryu]

Had the pleasure to train with Maurino Sensei at KNX. I tell you guys he is the absolute best!

[@heinrizliyaputra7811]

It is said by a Ba Ji Quan Sifu, a punch is already started when the hand besides the waist (to launch a punch). Shall the opponent close the distance to you, if you master stances fluidly, your stances might lead to easy-shift to other attack such as attack with shoulders or elbow or a take down. That's why it is important to consider to practice the preparation (initial position) and deliverence until end point when launching an attack, not just considering the end point. Because if you only considering the end point, when your opponent change his position, those end point will give him opening and might be disadvantage for you as it will lack of power. I also found the same principle from some Okinawan Karate I recognize such as Uechi Ryu and Goju Ryu. Not sure with other style. Note: Ba Ji Quan is one of Chinesse martial art, translated to roughly "eight extreme fist" (also means 8 directional fist to emphasis it's explosiveness), quite popular in Japan, Sensei Tatsuya Naka also did some exchange knowledge with Ba Ji Quan master in Japan.

[@victortatevosyan4001]

It's nice to see a scientific explanation of physical body mechanics from an expert 👌

[@Cmaxb9]

Always a fan of videos when you talk about the biomechanics mixed with Karate, it is something that must not be overlooked!

[@marcoleccese1524]

Grande Lucio, mare di conoscenza!!! And great work Jesse for bringing so many karate nerds :). It's like the karate avengers assemble

[@natashafranks]

So good. Thanks for interviewing this biomechanist. His explanations are spot on and sorely confused by many MA instructors.

[@triau7166]

it is nice Jesse San that you divided this video into chapters

[@thebrownbaldy]

Videos like this show there's more than one way to throw a punch, very useful information on body mechanics as well.

[@ottobindelssaco9625]

Great explanation, better technics. Thank you Jesse.

Keep it up Sensei. you are the only teacher of karate whom I saw teaching the way that's the most suitable for anyone. by the way, sensei pls tell me the best exercises for belly abs pls

[@prvtthd401]

Can't believe I've been doing those exercises all along. I just did it because it felt nice.

[@danielordonez412]

Very instructive. Thank you. I think the stabilizer/mobilizer is relative for the movement though. For example in boxing, while avoining punches to the sides, the hips work as a stabilizer, that will switch the whole scheme, being everything from the hips under a stabilizer. Furthermore, there are two kinds of joits, ankles and shoulders work 360 degrees, knees and elbows roughly 180 and unidirectional. Hips are like the first( ankles and shoulders), like direction free(a ball)probably a little more limited backwards. The spine is another story, where the main roles are taken by the muscles: abbs and "lumbs" lift the whole like a hanging bridge. So its good to have balance there and not just support your back with "lumbs"(sorry the ignorance). Which will stress it and since there's a nervous center there it will be neural pain and not muscular pain( after the lactic acid thing). Muscular pain being positive and neural pain being negative(injury). Moving up, the same hanging bridge principle applyes for head and arms. (Had to correct some spelling)

These areas appear to be where Sanchin kata builds strength and resilience. Those two simple breathing exercises really look worth trying, too.

[@Naraku1987]

Always good lessons from Dr. Lucio. Nice KU rash guard. Personally still feel that the best way to teach beginners is to punch from the floor/ feet. Hips are way to over-cued. Without the power transfer from the floor and a stiff core it's impossible to transfer any real amount of power to the fist.

[@niledunn4641]

Good video Jesse, good to refresh my knowledge on bio mechanics. This also applies to throws and kicks

[@danielhaire6677]

While Dr. Maurino is correct that PHYSICALLY a punch starts from the thoracic, I would say that it actually begins mentally when the mind recognizes the input from the senses and decides upon the target either consciously or subconsciously. Then it tells the body to begin all the movements that were talked about in this video.

[@ataemekkiat1077]

In kickboxing n boxing the punch start from rotating the leg n the hips to the shoulder the punch. It gives more speed n more distance comparing to a classic karate punch

[@seriouslyfun9740]

[@jarinorvanto4301]

Extending ten meters beyond reach... Or 'hitting through the target', as i recognize from systema. Takes some practice so as not to destroy your elbow? I guess the hazard of overextending the elbow is why striking with a baton should be done in a circular motion rather than a straight. Another reason would be to come back in a 'loaded position' after delivering a blow, in order to hit again.

[@henrickomakkink5376]

[@chengfu7063]

Really good analysis on things when where punching and kicking starts but ultimately power comes from the waist like the g.o.a.t legendary Bruce Lee said from the waist of course the whole focus should be on the annihilation of your target or targets this is a good analysis on the study on how the structuring of human bodies work well done as always very informative and always fight on 👊👍

[@goldengateliontiger8972]

Great video. The question I have is, how should the t-spine move with the punch? Flex, extend, or rotate? Thank you for all the great work.

In the mind, with intent.

[@johnceni3902]

[@KARATEbyJesse]

Glad you think so!

[@fireoutrageous1820]

Well i do boxing but in my opinion or what i have learned is the punch is generate by the spine like he said but if we want to increase more power we'd use our leg and twist or move our hips to increase more power.

A punch starts in the mind.

[@AlexTenThousand]

When I studied Shotokan Karate (I had to stop because of health issues), our teacher kept saying that the focal point was always the hips for both kicks and punches, and that movement had to be developed with your entire body, either to strengthen or to stabilize.

[@KARATEbyJesse]

The hip is the primary mechanism through which acceleration reaches its potential 👍

[@dzetta369]

Start at ankle always. Like spring of your body.
