@gargamel6699 A pleasure here too my friend. I'm in my 40th year in the Arts & still teach. But I still learn from everyone I come in contact with from children to adults to friends & comrades on the internet. An open mind is a glorious thing. Be well. Steve.

Nice to be able to have a civil discourse on YT. So many "badass" weekend warriors who've never been punched.

@gargamel6699 Points taken. Remember to not confuse a demonstration of combination strikes with self defense techniques. I'm with you, proper grounding is vital to generate power from the feet up. I have always taught and had a number opportunities in the night club & as a police officer, to lay into people hard and have always been sure my first to third strikes of combination's (via western style boxing which has been my base since age 5), delivered with the intent to cause damage.

I too was a bouncer not in the 70's, but mid 90's. I understand the theory, but I feel urged to reiterate my previous point. It is an oxymoron to to expect a fast sequence of hits, usually like 5-7 (that's a lot) to be "heavy hand iron palms". Power strikes comes from either weight or momentum. I just don't see it in this practice. As you know, what you practice is what you do. I mean it in the best way, but I see little to no guard and annoying, but not determining hits.

@gargamel6699 Legitimate points. I too have had much real use from the 1970's in to the 1990's as a bouncer the police officer to use the Arts I started training in, in 1971. What are perceived as "slaps" are heavy hand iron palms. We train in extensive internal/external hand conditioning. Combination's are always practiced to create a reflexive mind set. If combo's weren't functional, boxers wouldn't train them. For my money, boxers are more dangerous in a street fight than most M.A.'ists. TY

I studied multiple strike techniques before (Aikido, Kempo). They don't really work. In my experience, (it is quite a bit) the sacrifice you make with these small hits leave you with your guard down longer than with a solid stance. Nobody (in real situations) has just stood there and taken the hits to the throat, they always step back and swing back, while you are left with your arms down.

@geeba12 .....lol another "youtube warrior" feeling the need to express his vast knowledge about a glimpse into the system, i see? @et7313....i know the "guy on the right".....definitely not the slowest puncher. and a southpaw. and yes, the "guy on the left" was in fact raiding dens of some very dangerous people somewhere that has been repeatedly called the "murder capital of the state" repeatedly. go back to patty cake.

@Haseeb2 You need only one strike... the throat, man can't breathe man cannot fight. That alone for everyone is the biggest and most effective Martial arts knowledge you will ever learn.. Next is to figure out the fastest way to that point and moving like water against all attacks or defense to that point.. that sums up Real martial arts for you, forms and all that are garbage but fun to learn for many other reasons. Hope I didnt offend anyone.
