Push-Down Block Sequence

form_pattern_push_down_elbow

 

The push-down block sequence is as follows:

1)Rotate forward into a right forward bow with a left push-down block, while simultaneously retracting your right arm to a right chambered position
2a)Immediately, rotate forward into a right front twist, while allowing your left arm to cock across your body
2b)Step through forward into a left neutral bow with a left, hammering, outward, overhead elbow, at face level
2c)Without any loss of motion, settle into the left neutral bow with a left, hammering, overhead claw, at face level
3)Repeat the sequence on the opposite side (toward 1:30H)
4)Repeat the sequence on the opposite side (toward 1:30H)

 

An analysis of this sequence exposes the following information:

the sequence uses one-in-one timing

the sequence uses two-in-one timing

the sequence demonstrates a sophisticated maneuver

the sophisticated motion is demonstrated at the end of the sequence

it covers both the lower left and upper right parts of the minor angles ('x')

it travels on the opposite (perpendicular, overlapping)  angle of the Inside, Downward Palm up Sequence

 

Push-down Block Specific Information

An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:

the rotation of the stance allows for proper positioning of the block

 

Stance Rotation Specific Information

An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:

the maneuver reverses demonstrates the 'degree of' stance rotation of the Inside-downward, palm up Block sequence

 

Outward, Overhead Elbow Specific Information

An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:

the foot maneuver (step) adds a degree of back-up mass to the strike

 

Overhead, Heel-palm Specific Information

An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:

the maneuver demonstrates sophisticated motion (with the elbow strike)
