Male: We use a triple hit if you want to generate a lot of power. That will be dependent also when we are using the hit to drop the weight at the same time. So, the key thing here is that the twist, the breathing, the stance, the dropping are all united.
Common principle or concept within martial arts—within karatedo as well is this concept of how can we generate power from close range and things like that and the whole karatedo is to take on a large technique whistle it down, whistle it down until it is a small technique but becomes more effective.
So, if for example if you are just standing this position I am just using the weight of my fist to the abdomen like this not a lot happen instead we can feel it. But then just by simply bringing the fist closer and twisting there is a big difference. This movement as suppose to this movement is very much greater and then if I drop the weight at the same time basically as I am coming down dropping the weight like so, and then last time if I do it—and striking in that manner we look to the principle of striking we can neutralize it to an open hand strike or about we can pull across, push in, palm here, parate, back of the hand—you can utilize all this things.
So from a close range, we can drop our weight therefore energizing and enhancing our technique.
Male: What we arrive at now is the first official contingency plan in the anatomy of combat. This is the first series of defensive strategies and not surprisingly this is the area where most martial arts school start. They work on the premise that somebody has already attacked you and you either block the attack or in some way been able to counter it. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of being preemptive and even if that preemptive strike has not work to maintain the aggressive attack, to maintain the offensive.
However, we also got to look at what would happen if you have been preemptive yourself or those attacks have been replied with very aggressive retaliations. Here we look at regaining the initiative.
