How to Throw the Straight
Some quick tips are…
- From basic stance, throw rear hand direct from the chin w/ a natural arm twist (rotating the shoulder, elbow & hand)
- Continue twist, ending strike of punch w/ the thumb facing the ground
- During punch, while transferring weight, rotate entire rear of stance over the big toe of the rear foot
- While punching, keep chin down w/ opposite hand up & punching shoulder will naturally protect
- Land w/ middle & index finger knuckles
- After impact, retrace same path, returning to basic stance
