Lesson 17 lat sow mid/ upper torso punch

This punch we are going to call punch 'number 4'. The attacker attempts to slip his right punch past your outside pak sow defense by either using more power to smash through, or by moving a bit to your right to sneak through, or by dropping slightly, so he can bypass your slightly flared elbow position.

At this point we will only show the attack with this punch on the video. This punch is actually a extremely important move in WT since it is the beginning of a lot of the adjustments needed for realistic application. Most people looking at it just see the superficial idea of a punch to the chest that they think will be easy to defend against. But it is a building block for power, mobility, angular movement, and quite a bit more.

The defense against this punch will be added to this particular post very soon.
