Area1. Standing and striking. Much hand-to-hand combat is within this area, and in fact most self-defense forms involve fighting standing up. The essential fighting moves revolve on this: punching, kicking, chopping, covering, parrying and blocking your opponent' strikes. So it is suggested to learn the moves of fighting.
Punching. This is the rapid forward extension of the arm with the fingers closed and formed into a fist to act like a juggernaut. Punching is any one of the following:
1. Jab. A punch of the weak hand to test the enemy's reaction or take advantage of an opportunity to hit, however weak. It is also a method to place the enemy slightly out of balance so a better punch can be given.
2. Straight. A powerful strike of the strong or dominant hand at about shoulder height, supported by the shoulder for more power. The straight is the 'powerhouse' punch.
3. Uppercut. A punch of the strong or weak hand coming from waist height up into the head or torso. Sometimes the body of the fighter flexes to grant the punchgreater power. This is mostly done on close quarter position fighting.
4. Roundhouse. A looping punch of either weak or strong hand swinging from the outside.
5. Combination. A coupled punch of a jab and straight, or a jab and another strike.
Area 2. Fighting on the ground. Often fights continue on the ground when one or two falls. Even if one is mastered standing up he can always recoup on the ground if he is trained how to use his arms and legs to knee, wrestle hold, grip, choke hold or otherwise control his opponent's power to strike. Winning on the ground normally means winning the contest.
The benefit of punching bags
You will notice that when boxers start to train, they are often portrayed training using a punching bag. This is because punching bags are a vital component of a fighter's training, and well should be an important part of persons who train for combat to be at their best.
Training on punching bags affords a number of benefits to the trainee:
Skills improvement. The larger bags are more resistant and thus make the fighter feel his strikes, adding more realism, as if he is fighting a real opponent. It also improves punching power and hand position as it connects with the bag. A wrong hand placing may hurt your knuckles or even dislocate finger bones.
The smaller bags improve eye-arm coordination, and thus speed and quick reaction.
It improves the puncher's confidence. As the person learns the method he boxes the bag or bags, he will develop a sense of competence. His muscles are becoming bigger; his hits are heavier; he can see the bag's action; he can anticipate its movements: therefore, he is quicker, stronger, and more capable of meeting combat challenges.
Lets off steam. A strike or two at the punching bag can let off aggressiveness in a trainee. The feeling of hate directed at another individual is redirected to the punching bag, so that the pent-up feeling is discharged. Studies show individuals who perform exercises suffer from less stress than those who don't, and punching a bag is good exercise.
So if you wish to learn to punch, start by punching bags. You'll be more ready to take fighting lessons if you are more capable of doing them.
