Reference selection in the exercise

There are two ways to choose between the 3-inch Fighter exercises mentioned above:

(1) After standing in a preparatory position, raise your right hand with your elbow bent on the left side. The palm is inward, and when the right fist strikes, it is instantaneous. The left palm also pats down the body at the same time to coordinate the movement.

(2) When your right hand is slowly aimed at the target, your left arm is also raised flat on the side of the body and the elbow is slowly pulled back. When the maximum pullback limit of the left elbow is almost reached. The right hand is immediately clenched into a fist to strike at the target, while the left elbow is quickly pulled back to the maximum. When asking for a movement, the hands are coordinated to make you feel balanced and fluid.

(2) Exercises to raise the heels

Stand in a 3-inch boxing ready position for practice. The movement method, the essentials and the knee coordination exercise with the heel raised and the hand coordination exercise when standing firmly on the foot and eye are consistent, the only difference is that the right shoulder should be moved slightly forward in the movement and the exercise requires the coordination of all parts of your body. (Figure 67-1, 2.Pay attention to the change of movement posture)

Set a preparatory position 1 inch in front of the left foot collar 30cm away from the sandbag.

(1) Practice of standing firm

Requirements: When doing this exercise. Hand sorties must be done quickly in an instant because you don’t have much room for action. Also when doing that exercise. It should also feel the same as when doing a 3-inch boxer with coordinated exercises. (Fig. 68-1, 2 Note: Switching postures with the figure during formal exercises)

(2) Exercises to raise the heels

This exercise method, essentials, and coordination exercises with the 1-inch fist raised foot and eye and the hand coordination exercises when standing firm are the same. The difference is that the action is done in a fairly close area and therefore requires the sortie to be fast. Pay attention to repeated practice.

Practice shows that if the arch fist action of the heel is raised, its penetrating lethality on the target is extremely high, just like a fierce blow. Its powerful effect lasts for more than 1 second (Fig. 69-1,2)
