  • Interesting as a boxer I understand the fundamentals of this punch and the source of power. The punches we use,however, do not come from the, "three sticks" it comes from the second and third stick as you described plus the shift of our body in the direction we are punching and finally the twist of our wrists as we are punching. All of these factors contribute to a serious punch.

  • @akid113090 i agree, both methods can generate alot of power, i enjoy the physics and intelligence of breaking down both types of punches and i'm glad you do as well, take care and peace!

  • Could a 13 yr old be able to learn how to do Wing Chun?

  • @TheCheungo of course!

  • Anyway, I honestly don't care anymore to explain anything. If someone thinks WC sucks, who cares? If they don't, who cares? We should all stop trying to convince each other. A lot of people don't get a lot of styles, not many people are very good at any of them either, so when people don't try or understand and complain, it's their loss. This goes for WC, BJJ, boxing, wrestling, MT, Krav Maga, you name it. Good people get good. Those with poor understanding won't get it. Put it to the test/train

  • The problem to this system is that it does not generate much power. And even if your elbow is stable enough to let only your 3rd stick drop when moved and dropped, by the time you're that close, they'll either elbow or clinch/knee you if fighting against other stand-up fighters or get you into the ground game if fighting against ground fighter and you get owned against experienced fighters. This flaw has been proven in MMA.

  • @TheCheungo since it was basically created by a small chinese woman, i'd say yes a 13 year old would do just fine

  • Great Explanation and thanks for posting these, they really have been helpful I have been trying to follow the three stick concept, I am a guy thats 5'2 and 125 pounds, so I need the best technique and power I can get and I was wondering how do I get inside and keep all of the power in my punch while trying to keep the third stick soft as a blade of grass?

  • Brilliant! Thank you for these videos on basic technique! I've been studying a lot of videos on youtube to find the information I need to develop in martial arts and wing chun. This is one of the most informative ones I've seen, as well as the one about fist formation. Great work! I look forward to practicing with these lessons in mind.

  • China Boxer: "right?"

    Mr. Mackey: "m'key!"

    China Boxer: "right?"

    Mr. Mackey: "m'key!"

    China Boxer: "right?"

    Mr. Mackey: "m'key!"

  • Wow,I heard a lot of "sticks"... Could it be that you philosophize too much? And that you have already been blinded by all these concepts? A wise man once said "It is easy for me to put on a show and be cocky and be flooded with a cocky feeling and then feel like pretty cool and all that. Or i can make all kinds of phony things, blinded by it. Or I can show you some fancy movements...

  • Now i know why my master told me to practice this punch for 3 months then come back.

  • This is such a strong punch.. Even stronger when you know a lot of pressure points on the chest/ stomach :)
