What Part of your Hand should you use to Punch with?
Friday, April 18th, 2008When you are punching, it is important that you punch with the correct part of the hand.
This is for many reasons. Firstly so that you can transfer the power from your punch into your target as efficiently as possible. So you want a hard part of the hand as you don’t want it to give when your punch lands on your opponent.
Secondly, punching with the correct part of the hand will minimise the chance of you injuring yourself, you hand or your wrist.
