The use of sine wave in fundamental Movements and Patterns is for training and development. It teaches the practitioner to use mass as well as acceleration in order to gain maximum power. This is not only gained with a down-up-down motion [sine wave], but also with a slight twisting of the hips, as well as a relaxing and tensing of the muscles in the body. In actual combat or defense application it will not be so pronounced, but it will be utilized by dropping the weight as you strike.
I understand for fluidity & maybe power generation.... but this would be pretty counter-productive & time consuming in a street fight if you ever get jumped, not to mention it telegraphs your every move........ what so they say about using this in combat?
my understanding of sine wave is the korean 'version' of aikido weight underside
