In dire need of Hitting Help, specifically... - 10-05-2005, 08:29 PM

...the neck hits.

Hello all, Thank you for submitting your time into clicking on this thread regardless of replying or not. Alas, I'm in need of assistance. I can't do neck hits. . I mean, I'm trying, but I don't think I wholly understand it, I read the pinned topics and I failed to grasp a real understanding. So anyone wanna help this little girl out and perhaps provide a broader explantation than what was provided?

Also, I have a habit of throwing my shoulders around and my wrists down, and I know for sure, I'm not supposed to do that, any way to get around it?

I'd appreciate the help.




(falls over) I need friends.
--Blah, I've got to re-learn everything.

on the shoulders and wrists... you need to mind what your doing with your body.

Watch yourself in a mirror
feel how your body moves when you do it
feel how you body moves and feels when you counter act the flailing limbs...


For neck hits, try tensing thefront of your neck... that should get both front and back of the neck.
Just feel it out. try to isolate and tense as many parts of your neck as you can, see what works best for you.

what helped me for neck hits was someone saying "peck your head quick like a chicken" Its that quick movement and then stopping.

pull your head backwards as well as forwards (not tip, keep it flat - "peck like a chicken) lots
and vibrated it sideways (rotating it slightly)

the faster you move it and the shorter the distance you move it the harder the hit will look - and eventutally it wont move at all.

do it 50 times and some muscles will start to hurt at the side* - start by using those to hit your neck.

* When you wear the muscles down and they ache, you can identify them separately in the nervous system because they have a stronger signal.
That means you can then learn to isolate and hit them with practise. The same technique works all over the body.

And no thats not what poppin pete does - but it worked for me......
