Re: Elbow locking/joint pain during backfist
Originally posted by [~T~]G
Hi everyone,
I need some advice on this...everytime I whip out my backfist I get a slight joint paint, something feels not quite right. I try to do them as fast as possible and extend fully, at which i feel a click, which is very uncomfortable.
Im trying to loosen my fist until im about to strike, at which i tense it up and retract it back quickly.
Im doing all this in the air, am I overextending?
Should I be punching against a bag or something? Please help!
Joy is correct. Don't do backfist. It's doesn't work against Wing Chun and has no real power.
