Lead Arm Rising Block and Rear Arm Counter Attack

My thanks again to Jason for his help this week.

Today we are practicing block and counter attack using a rising block against an overhand punch.

This exercise deliberately utilizes a slight pause between the block and the counter. If the attacker should throw a flurry of punches, more blocks, evasions or various other defenses could be applied.

However…

The rising block by itself should prove efficient in stopping the initial overhand punch.

Without prejudice
