Lead Crossdownward Block and Rear Counter Punch

This week, Kurt is helping me out with filming. We work the various counters that work with the Crossdownward Palm Block against a lead punch to the solar plexus.

Keep in mind that this is a drill. There are many different methods of defending against a punch to the body just as there are many different ways to attack it.

This series of drills are pretty standard stuff but they work better when they are drilled to repeatedly by a practitioner who enjoys it.

Today, Kurt and I practice a block, slight pause, counter punch. As has been said before, the slight pause allows the defender to block again if necessary.

This whole defense combination is based on knowing the attacker is coming even if the defender does not know how he is going to be attacked.
