PALM HEEL STRIKE
Combatives
You can perform a straight punch using the heel of your palm instead of a fist.
The motion of this punch is otherwise the same as a straight punch. This
explanation describes a right palm heel strike, but the strike can be done with
either hand.
STARTING POSITION: Left-leg-forward fighting stance.
1 Driving with your legs and keeping your elbow down as long as possible,
extend your right arm forward. As your hand travels out, rotate your shoulder
and hip forward to add power. Pivot on your back foot.
