It is one of the most powerful weapons you have. Definitely more powerful than kicks. This is a munta knee kick. Move, hshs, move, hsh, move hsh and what it is we are going to break it down. If you are in a clench coming here you grab control of a man or persons neck and you control their body and from here you are going to throw them up and lean your body back. This is great for self-defense also. So, the movement goes like this. You grab the neck or any part of the shirt body in the street that you can grab. Grab the hair if you have to, the ears and you are going to pull them into you as you throw your body back and it does not matter where you hit. You can either hit with the knee, hit with this it doesn’t matter. If you are hitting a bag, then don’t hit with your knee because you are going to hurt your knee. You can either go to the side with the knees, forward, a lot of different variations of the knees. The knees are the most powerful weapon; a lot more powerful than kicks. "
