 Hey, what's up? It's the Wing Chun Kid from the Wing Chun Kid channel and in this video We're going to show you the three mistakes that you must avoid if you're going to be punching. Alright, so here we go Here's three mistakes that beginners make a lot when they learn how to punch. The first one is They turn their head when they punch like this This is quite common when they throw a punch they turn their head Like that. Now the reason they do that is because of the body rotation The body rotation is proper, but now you're rotating your whole head Along with the body and that's incorrect. Alright, so when you're doing your body rotation Make sure that the body is rotating, but the head is still looking straight Right, so that's mistake number one another common mistake that beginners make is having the wrong wrist angle Now I just explained to you how to do the proper punch and I just want to emphasize This because it's very important Especially if you're really amped up and you punch really hard and you have the wrong wrist angle Then you're going to hospital because you're going to fracture your wrist. Okay, so Make sure that the wrist angle is nice and straight and what I would like like to do is to go on the ground If you see and just do this and see if it's comfortable if your knuckles can do this Then you'll be able to punch something pretty hard Okay, or you can do the last three fingers So you need to do the two first two fingers Okay, I mean first two knuckles or the last two knuckles like this and just do push-ups like this Or just do a plank like what I'm doing and I have space here to do it, but you know what I'm talking about all right now With this you can feel through your bones One is the proper wrist angle obviously it's not going to be like this because you won't be able to support your body Right, it's not going to be like this. So like this then you train your alignment to have the proper structure to deliver a good punch The third common mistake that beginners make in punching is Dropping their hands after the punch. All right when you what I mean by that is when you punch After you punch the person will drop it down to bring it back here So they punch and they drop it now That's no good because when you punch and miss and you drop it that opens you up for counters So make sure that when you're punching After it comes out you pull it back in in a direct line back to your chin Okay, so out and direct line back to your chin make sure that doesn't drop and come back up like this Doesn't drop with this make sure when you're punching it comes straight back. All right, so that's more for Being able to have a good defense with your offense, right? So I hope that helps you out. Those are three major mistakes of beginners in punching.
