"So now we are on into what we would call punches number 4 which is the uppercut. So again mechanics when we set it up, I want to make sure when you use first the power from the ground I can take that force up through the body and then let it express itself into the arm. So one more time in slow motion I make sure that I get as much rotation of the hip into the arm as oppose to the just dropping the hand and hitting like this. So if we go in real time sos of course by extension if I can hit with a punch then I can change the tool and then I can change hitting in what we call up interval. And one more time so you would see the first technique, elbow technique, but identical body mechanics."
