Inside, Vertical Forearm Strike Sequence

form_pattern_push_down_elbow

 

The inside, vertical forearm strike sequence is as follows:

1)Rotate forward into a left forward bow with the execution of a right, thrusting straight punch, at solar plexus level, while simultaneously cocking the left arm and fist to the left shoulder area
2)Rotate backward into a left neutral bow with a left, hammering, vertical, inside forearm strike, while simultaneously retracting the right arm to a right chambered position

 

The obvious information derived from this sequence is:

it is stationary

it utilizes the forward bow and neutral bow stances

it demonstrates execution with the rear and front weapon (offensively)

it demonstrates a 'degree of' in-place stance rotation

it only shows one side of the sequence

 

Analyzing this sequence further exposes the following information:

it introduces a new strike - inside, vertical forearm

it reverses the sequence demonstrated in the Inward Block Sequence of Long Form One

it mirrors the rotation demonstrated at the end of the Inward Block Sequence

 

Reverse Punch Specific Information

The obvious information derived from the Reverse Punch is:

it is offensive

it emphasizes the power principle of torque

it uses the thrusting Method of Execution

it is executed on a linear line of travel (horizontally)

 

Analyzing this maneuver further exposes the following information:

the stance rotation enhances the execution of the strike

 

Inside, Vertical Forearm Specific Information
