- "impact" strategy:
unlike defense, which is done with the least possible action, attacks require heavy impact. for higher impact in actions, you should employ your body parts and choose targets more subtly:
tactic 5 - 'multiple limb impact':
"chain tactic (连环计)" – for the highest impact in an action, use all possible parts of your body together or in succession. instead of using one limb once, use it multiple times and use multiple limbs in attack and, if needed, in defense.
tactic 6 - 'maximum limb impact':
"use fire to plunder (趁火打劫)" – use more powerful parts of your limbs in attack and defense. whenever possible, instead of hands, use your forearms, elbows, or shoulders, and instead of your feet, use your calves, knees, or pelvis.
tactic 7 - 'limbs leveraging cooperation':
"shut the door to catch the thief (关门捉贼)" – grab the opponent with your hand or a foot as fulcrum and drag him against your attack to block his escape and to leverage your force and increase its impact power. for example, before hitting the opponent grab and pull him with your hand(s), or before throwing him hook his foot with a leg or your arm(s) to unbalance him first.
tactic 8 - 'targeting sensitive points':
"to catch thieves, catch their chief (擒贼擒王)" – to be effective, target the most sensitive parts of opponent's body. (for example, for hitting, the most common sensitive points of body from top to down are: the eyes, nose, throat, diaphragm, testicles, fingers, shins. for pressing and locking there are also more sensitive points.) for example, in the fingers, target the smaller one, in the face, the lower jaw, in ribs, the lower rib, in thigh, the lower thigh, in knees the sides, which are relatively weaker and more sensitive.
these involve limbs swing in curves for action of the upper parts of the limbs in double and triple moves. in this style, all moves are done by both of your arms and even the legs simultaneously or in sequences, teaching you how to make multiple limbs cooperate in various situations of defense and attack. in addition, the body curvature teaches using the upper, more powerful parts of limbs, like forearms, elbows, knees, etc.
after you learn this style, you see that hong quan moves have been too plain, light, and weak.
