Facts. (but tbf I do think that he explained this bit, _although not super clearly_ , when he said the piece of glass thing. If you're holding a piece of glass you won't stick your thumb inside your other fingers, so the thumb will have to be outside like with the glove. At least that's how I interpreted it.)

correct. This loose grip crap is terrible advice based on a miscommunication with martial arts. The goal of a loose hand is to snap it closed as tight as possible on contact. People ignore that and just tape everything super tight that basically reinforces bad habis.

That was a perfect explanation, no real notes just an alt, the glove places your finger in a spit you can make a truly mean hammer fist but isn't good for direct punches, to do so roll from pinky up to form the fist then use your thumb tip to put pressure on the second knuckle of you first finger, clench tight, this is the fist of wingchun that has an brutal hammer strike and some solid flurry punches resembling speedbaging

i did martial arts for years and my instructor would kick you if you had an open fist while punching. strength of the punch is correlated to density of your fist (obviously) so more mass in a smaller area. plus you can do a good job of breaking your fingers punching with an open fist, which seems a bit worse than over-flexing a tendon. then again you need to be hitting with your knuckles, not a flat fist anyways

@darkwraithknyack1262 ай бұрын
Might help your hand but mass times excelleration means a more sense compacted fist will have more force. Also the law of inertia says an object with more mass will not accept the dissipation of energy (two cars hit the small car bounces off) so by having a closed fist and a dense fist that you squeeze it won't take most of the impact your target will. So more damage for them and less for you!! I just worry loose fingers get snagged on clothes or their hands and break your fingers. Seen it happen.
@YourUpstairsNeighbor2 ай бұрын
This is an incorrect way of thinking about force. Your fist will receive the same amount of force as the object being struck, whether it's closed or not. In your car example, the small one moves because it requires less force to move an object with less mass. Both cars experience the same force, but the smaller experiences more acceleration from the force.)
@darkwraithknyack1262 ай бұрын
@YourUpstairsNeighbor I don't think so, the object with less mass experiences a more severe change in velocity and smaller cars experience more force because of it. Yeah also better safe than sorry, having your fingers sticking out leaves room for some mistake where they get caught on something like hands or their clothes or another fist or anything. Closed tight fist is less likely to have a finger broken!
