Rule of thumb: hard to soft and soft to hard - use the hard fist to attack the stomach, ribs, liver, etc. Use the palm to attack hard surfaces, like the face.

[@listen7634]

Makes sense but has this been showed effective and how?

[@rbc8140]

@@listen7634 well, many weak knuckles get broken when they make contact with the forehead. The softer areas like the liver, are effective, but also safer. Using this rule makes yourself safer, but dangerous and stronger to others.

[@listen7634]

RBC Gaming Vlogs and more! I could be wrong but pretty sure your palm would break fairly easy against anyone’s forehead unless your a trained fighter with rigorously conditioned hands. However, a trained fighter would never aim for the forehead bc they know how strong it is. This is part of the reason why you tuck your chin in. They would aim for the liver but I think “soft” isn’t the best choice of words. Vulnerable would be better.

Bruised knuckles can be used as evidence in a court of law, that's why palm strikes are good.

[@thaichatham]

I got charges dropped cause I punched this guy through an open window. He grabbed a hammer, swung it at me missed and broke his own window. I pulled him out and fed him a few knees and left quickly as he was already on the phone with the police. He told the police I punched in his window. No cuts of course and all the glass on the outside. Charges dropped simply cause he lied, they didn't even question why I was there in court or if I punched him at all.

This actually works very well. I remember a few years ago reading about a woman who was at home at the time that a man broke into her house to rape her. She submitted to the rape, but once the man dropped his pants to reveal his genitals the woman grabbed his testicles, pulled, twisted, and squeezed. She led him out of her house. the man was hitting her and doing is best to get her hand off of his testicles but she kept on holding on too them until she finally got him out of her front door and then pushed him into the snow off of her porch. It was February at the time and there was a lot of snow on the ground. She called the police and the police followed his foot prints to his house. He lived only about a half a block a way. When the police got to his house they looked inside the front window and saw the perpetrator on the floor of his living room, naked from the waste down, holding onto his family that was between his legs. The police walked into his house and arrested him.

I was caught another day and fought back, I got some punches and I didn't score any, but I always aimed for eyes, groin, or alike. They knew I'm not a person for fight, but if I score, I might kill them or disable them permanently. Then they don't bother me anymore.

Not true, Bruce said use what works for you, disregard the rest, well if like Bruce you had training or like me by the 2 best Tae Kwon Do Masters on Earth ever, namely Jhoon Goo Rhee and Suu Kyi Yeoung then yes, at green light or long distance fighting the kick is perfect for interception and if trained in TKD above all else, some forms of Kung Fu and some forms of high proficient Kick Boxing, then there is no way 1 or 2 or 3 fighters can touch you or get close enough to land a punch or a shove or any close quarters fighting.

[@diongibbsbpwp160]

If taught for real life and self improvement and not tournament safe fighting or glorified sparring with a partner under the safety of rules and regulations, then fly or high kicking unless highly proficient is useless., the side kick is highly potent, the kick to the groin highly potent and if fast and powerful then a front round house and the standard reverse round house kick, are what is best.

[@sword-and-shield]

No kicks above the knee, but a no kick approach to street fights is foolishness.

[@sword-and-shield]

@Alacycle I would say grabbing is less likely, but possible. More likely is just pushing the leg upward, very high, causing them to lose footing and crash down backward onto their neck, with your body weight coming down on top of them.

[@sword-and-shield]

@Alacycle No problem, my mistake was thinking your original post was for me ...it wasn't. Now, for my opinion , blocking kicks is a huge mistake, or going for a grab, I see it a lot in mma as well.The best move for any kick waist level or higher is to close in, the sweep is one way, capture can sometimes work, but always close in hard, it will save you in the end, because if it becomes habit they will never land one with enough power to do anything.. The most devastating move we used bouncing, was called "Tree Topping"...It is closing in getting under the leg and lifting it sending them crashing back on their neck, followed by my body weight on top, usually KO'd them. ALWAYS keep them kicks at the knee or lower, or devastation is very possible, concerning street fighting anyway.

If you are worried about hurting your hands in a fight, don't fight. Biggest mistake is going into a fight and thinking you won't get hurt or worrying about getting hurt. I would argue that you can still injure your wrist with a palm strike. The most meaningful difference would be the reach between a palm strike and a punch. Test it out yourself, a punch has at least a 3" advantage in range, which is huge in any kind of fight.

[@MrDontfeedthematrix]

There are pros and cons to both. The palm has high layers of fat, so this will be less damaging upon impact (due to the fat acting as a cushion). Open fingers leaves them all prone to breaking - if you miss with palm. And there is about 4 inches less reach with a palm strike. You can get more power in a 'jab' or straight lead by using opponent's momentum. You make them run into your lead and this is like running into a wall. It also feels entirely natural to use the fist as a striking weapon.

Nice one man

[@wayne7071]

Mr lok , I’ve been watching a lot of your videos recently . And you have opened my eyes to a lot of possibilities. I’d be extremely happy if your were my mentor .

[@Badkitty24]

He is very correct. Everybody in street fights, punch in the face and almost every one can take a punch to the face, many times several. It's very ineffective and will cause more damage to you than your opponent. Throat, groin, knees are great target. The first two more so without much practice. Remember the karate kid movie, " if an enemy can't see, he can't fight. ( palm strike to nose ) , if an enemy can't breathe he can't fight ( throat strike ) . If an enemy can't stand, he can't fight ( knee or groin strike ). Then walk/run away. Who freaking cares what other people think how you handled it. Don't let " be a man " influence your judgement. Fights can escalate very quickly when the aggressor is losing. Don't be around for it. I have 11 years in marital arts ( Shorin-Ryu Shotokan and American Kickboxing ) I've never let any arguement escalate to violence. Name calling and posturing/intimidation don't work on me..i simply don't care what they think or say. They all walk away angry.

[@hisss]

Kevin riser Marital arts? Freudian slip? 😆

[@LLVstacks]

Sooooo.... U wanna let Mike Tyson punch u in the face and see if u can take that? Cuz I'm sure you'll be in a coma after

[@MRtodd-8287]

Im pretty sure if ya punch a cunt hard enough in the nose he wont come back lol

[@dabunnyrabbit2620]

I'm guessing you have never been in a real fight before.

[@jihadrousan8171]

I have not been formally trained, But i have formally trained mentally, and i agree with you. A fight is not necessary unless out of defense. I do not care what anyone thinks of me whether I look weak or not. No one can say something to me to provoke me because at the end of the day if you insult me and are wrong, i pity you. If you insult me and are right, i thank you. Also, all of my friends have always been very trained in various martial arts and from this I have no doubt in my physical capabilities, and any confrontation I've ever been which have been many, I've never backed down, they have always backed down. i have never had to injure another human. A fight needs two people to engage and VERY rarely will a fight take place if one of the two people understands the metrics behind human nature

[@trendz1905]

Great I will watch all your videos now

[@waderands3393]

I learned the fu jow ( I'm sure It's probably spelled differently ) on my first day of tiger claw kung fu, and immediately fell in love with that technique. I've used the open hand strike once towards the solar plexus and the guy went flying backwards.

[@colinmuriithi7552]

I thought, "Who TF is standing behind there awkwardly with their arms up???"...then I realized...its a mannequin 🤦‍♂️😂😂

[@KevsGuide]

Its Bob actually 🤣

[@richardsanders3567]

Should go to specsavers😉

[@AbstracthomesRenovations]

Ouch!!

[@SilkenT219877]

Lmao

[@flymingomusic8901]

In a fight, there will always be an ouch! The alternative to this is to "ouch" in training... So sign up for your local MMA gym, and do a lot of knuckle and wrist exercises before the fight happens! But there is no glory without an "ouch"

[@DENicholsAutoBravado]

Flymingo Music yeah. All gets better with training. I am more ready with my CCW that's my answer with the 21 foot rule being very little time to deal with a knife.

[@emmanuelmolina2785]

Sometimes when you fight you have to observe which hand he's throwing with more so you can just bounce to the opposite side and hit him with a palm strike!

[@everythingispose-able2543]

Why would you bounce to the opposite side...the side that probably still has the guard up? Seems to me you would want to dodge/slip the punch and hit the open side that is exposed by his punch.

[@ApocalyptoX1]

Yes! I see so many videos of crappy practitioners with weak skills. I can see the truth in your hands. Thank you for sharing.

[@jerryd3331]

I like the idea of Palm strikes, but bear in mind... It's easy to dislocate your own fingers with a palm strike against a moving target.

[@WEIRDNEWSNETWORK]

Good video Dan Lok. I think you are correct. And, I have been teaching this in my classes for more decades than I care to mention. lol Punching is an advanced skill that requires precise accuracy. It does have much more extension than the palm strike. But, the palm has a larger striking surface and it is hard to miss even for beginners. It is important to tilt it slightly inward to avoid jamming your wrist. My focus point is the heel edge of the hand below the pinky finger not center of palm.

[@dineshshrikhande6736]

Very good information. Sir. thanks

[@baptistchrisjohn]

Good explanation, thank you.

[@puttputt524]

Makes sense that Bruce doesn’t punch as much as he goes for the throat and eyes.

[@DanLok]

Keep practicing.

[@audieherron5474]

puttputt524 yeah cuz Bruce Lee specializes in street fights, not regulated "safe" fights with no fear of death

[@enriquecabrera2137]

well considering Lee didnt really specialize in anything at all...

[@enriquecabrera2137]

Audie Herron he never did that.

[@neallekyler864]

Bruce Lee used punches like the straight lead. Its a vertical three knuckle punch

[@jojo-ec4js]

You better have a strong wrist

[@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935]

JOJOM1209 easy to condition. especially for anyone who is already actively training.

[@ClassicTrialsChannel]

they are stronger than your knuckles

[@LastBastian]

Yeah, palm strike hard as you can and catch an arm, face, whatever, with your fingers/upper hand.... you're done. Broken or dislocated wrist.

[@maxedwhip1286]

Rafael Roquemore you dont work out im guessing. More you work out more pressure your wrists will get. They arent muscles on their own at all. Muscles support them but wrists will break quite easily.

[@edi9892]

I feel my wrists safer in palmstrike than regular strike, since I'm used to support my bodyweight on my bent wrist, but flexing it the other way I don't get far. If I bet, I'd say that I could still hit with the upper part of the palm without damaging my wrist. However, if I hit with my fingers, i'll either break my wrist or fingers. If you want to reduce the risk, you can roll your fingers in, in something called a leopard-fist (it's like unrolling your regular fist one step to reveal your palm). That greatly reduces the risk of getting entangled and it also reduces the maximum leverage on your wrist.

[@rattdutta8466]

Awesome sir Great Information

[@dienekes4364]

When I strike with my fist, usually it's on the other guy's forearm. It only takes getting punched at full force on the forearm to get someone to decide they really don't want to be involved in that fight much longer.
