At 0:17 - :019 elbow stays down ... rise as the right goes up and forward.
Elbow rise and elbow stays down = apple and oranges = debate of dissimilar ideas.
I initially felt this at first. Do they think we are saying the elbow doesnt remain oriented down? Do they think we are somehow not focusing on the idea that you picture the elbow as moving "forward" when we punch and instead picture it rising?
The thing is a few times it was clarified, the elbow remains oriented down as it moves forward and the rising isn't a change in orientation, rather a movement through space that is only a consequence of the nature of the joint. So with that clarification made insisting the elbow stays down and doesn't rise makes little sense, but admittedly I can be anal retentive when focusing on little details.
