Like I give two spits and half a fart if it contains YMVT elbow ideas, I don't do YMVT, YCWWC has their own ideas. I could care less if they adhere to yours or not. Does your elbow wander when you throw a straight punch? Because mine doesn't. Level is irrelevant, the elbow starts and ends on the line of attack. Maybe you ought to explain what you mean by "Elbow Idea", to me it certainly doesn't allow wandering. Once again in simplest terms possible, punch starts at shoulder, is aligned by elbow (on line of attack) and directed by wrist (level of height) to target. Its three joints working in conjunction with forward pressure. Shoulder firmly in socket, elbow down and vertical fist to align radius and ulna, body rotation as needed to create angle for natural wedge. There is no focus on attacking the arm to simultaneously punch the opponent, it is simply punch, if it happens it happens because of proper form and structure.Took you long enough to get here. You could have come sooner.
What you explain doesn't contain any YMVT elbow idea. It is just rotating your body to create an angle, like in KPM's video. The elbow follows the wrist along an outside line in order to punch through the opponent's arm. How will this work from inside gate?
When I entered this conversation it was a simple statement (on my thread) about YCWWC having a similar concept to the technique of cutting/inclusion/exclusion punching which in YCWWC we call gate punching (which is beginner stuff, others understood it) it wasn't a discussion on elbow ideas in YMVT. It was turned into that by you and Guy, who continue to pose questions about it in relation to your elbow ideas. I've explained it enough, you either get it or you don't. If you don't utilize the method what do you care? If you do use it (or something similar) please explain how you do it, otherwise we have nothing left to discuss.
