In the second variation, instead of just withdrawing straight back, the chain punch withdraws incorporating a short downwards jut sao to destabilize the defense. Also the technique stresses relaxation of the muscles right after impact to allow the wing chun expert to deliver multiple punches in rapid succession. However, in the video above, Sifu Vik uses the punches in a more flexible manner, which I believe is more practical against more skilled opponents.
The problem with the chain punch is that it tends to lack enough force to know the opponent out, as compared to powerful punches from other styles such as boxing. Some experts have years of practice, are able to develop enough acceleration to be able to cause considerable damage using chain punching. In some lineages the chain punch is used incorporating some hip rotation or by utilizing the power of the legs and lower body by coordinating the punches with steps, which can allow the practitioner to get power from the ground.
The traditional wing chun method to train the punch is punching the wallbag. Some lineages, in particular the Wong Shun Lineage, also use the heavy bag a lot, with excellent results. Training power in the wing chun inch punch, a technique popularized by the late great Bruce Lee, also helps make the chain punch more practical for real world self defense. In real world self defense you may need to throw punches at different distances, ranging from longish range to extremely short range.

The thing about Wing Chun punching is, never lock the elbow with full extension, because arm breaking is seriously taught in all Chinese styles.

Callen said:. A proper hook punch lifts the elbow to the same height as the hand, which in some lineages, breaks the power generation and mechanics that we work to develop.
Kung Fu Wang said:. I believe the hook punch uses a different power generation method than the straight punch uses. Joined Jun 2, Messages Reaction score My sifu repeatedly demonstrated that a vertical fist elbow down punch with a loose, elastic arm can be fully extended without risk of being broken Admittedly, he was practically double jointed.
I, on the other hand am quite stiff-jointed, but even so, have had no problems with fully extended WC punches being particularly vulnerable to arm breaks. Quite the opposite in fact. In the early 80's LT did a seminar in Chicago area where he demonstrated this. He asked a very large gentleman to test this. Double jointed or not the way LT reacted many were surprised he did not need serious surgery. I did not see the particular demo, but I assume you are saying that he experienced a lot of pain.
That sounds totally plausible. I do know the kind of demo he used to do where he would offer up his extended arm and "dare" people to try and "break" hyper-extend it. I'm frankly not surprised that that foolishness caught up with him!
It seems the style I do, Lung Ying, is one of the few CMA's that traditionally uses the close range hook kao jung and the upper cut chung choi. Fortunetly for myself, it means we have to counter them both regularly too. If you're going to counter a good snappy short range hook you really only have a few options.
Slipping just outside the range of the hook and quickly trapping it against your opponent's body is one of the best, but this requires both awareness of the blow and good timing.
This counter tends to happen after you've already been caught with a hook once and recognize how your opponent sets it up. Another option is to fold your arm up at the elbow and raise it to the level of your ear to absorb the blow.
This tends to be more common as an instinctual response and is actually fairly easy to pull off. Again, this must be followed up imidiately as you are now on your oponents inside with good access to his centerline. If you're quick enough and have drilled it alot there are also some intersting shoulder locking chin na that can be accomplished from this position. There are some other good methods aren't really traditional to my style, and have been mentioned before which is duck the blow again requires awareness of it, and good timeing and counter.
I personally don't care so much for trying to slip inside a good hook as it's a short range blow and there doesn't tend to be room to get much closer. On the other hand, if he's a "lazy hooker" and throws the wide louping hooks with his arm mostly extended, moving inside is a great thing to do. The key to dealing with a good hooker is couter, counter, coutner! Punish him everytime you stop that hook, thusly taking away one of his very powerful weapons. In Choi Lee Fut, you learn from day one not only how to use uppercuts and hooks very popular techniques in the style but how to defend against them.
