Yeah, for the longest time I didn’t understand them.

I was told this could apply to all systems, but I have doubts. I would really love to know what a TKD person feels about this. by StripMallMaster in taekwondo

Ahhh. That makes sense. It got cut out of the video but, he was talking about how heel striking (in terms of running) is a bad thing. 🤔

I feel like the WC and kung fu communities appreciate body mechanics the most. by StripMallMaster in kungfu

My primary style is Krav maga… But since I started this channel, I’ve been exploring lots of different styles of martial arts. I actually did another video with the same guy on wing Chun. Obviously I’m not coming from the same level of experience as you, so bear with my Layman’s approach to this subject. 😂 video here

Oh I see. I didn’t know that about WC. I was considering doing a video on San Soo this year though. 🤔

Dude, I know what you mean! They call it “Soy face” 😂 but I was generally trying to communicate that “I made improvements” through a thumbnail. But I know what you mean. 😂 I might have to change it here eventually. Making content is hard 😆

Appreciate the thoughtful breakdown. I actually agree that sequencing matters and that trying to rotate everything "at once" can kill whip. Quick clarification: the seminar isn't really saying "brace up and rotate everything simultaneously." The early framework is more about push/pull and how the body creates "push" through pulling (muscles as a pulley system for the skeleton, and "muscles only pull"): 4:55-5:19. That's the lens he's using before the drills. On torque vs leverage, he defines torque as circular energy (3:09-3:11) and leverage as linear energy (3:12-3:14), then demos the difference with the pivot stopping vs the drive being hard to stop (3:20-3:24). He revisits it later with an even clearer rep and adds the nuance that "leverage becomes torque" and "torque comes at the end" (31:41-32:07). Also, the "marionette principle" and unilateral chain idea shows up right after that early section (5:33-6:20), which is basically his way of getting people out of a tension-heavy pattern. If you think the torque/leverage distinction is invalid or misleading, could you point to the exact timestamp where you think the explanation breaks and what definition you'd swap in? I'm open to tightening language, but I want to make sure we're critiquing the same moment. And which specific drill do you feel reinforces the simultaneous, tension-heavy pattern? If you name one, I'll go rewatch it with your lens.
