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
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
The obvious information derived from the Forearm is:
•it is offensive
•it emphasizes the power principle of torque
•it uses the hammering Method of Execution
•it is executed on a linear path of travel (horizontally)
Analyzing this maneuver further exposes the following information:
•the stance rotation enhances the execution of the strike
