    Further our conversation!

    Lee never attaches to the head, and makes it quite clear from the outset why. Apart from absorbing kinetic force and not everyone has hair long enough to grab
    Attachment or indexing has been always on the upper body, clothes and anything grabable, hence why most of my training T shirts are in bits :D

    Just something small you may have forgotten from the seminar ;)

    Jon is correct here...

    Just to add:

    If Lee does decide to hold the head, as put by Boru (hit and hold as he calls it), he does so in a "cupping" manner. This is also done at the base of the neck, and NEVER the head. As holding the head would stop the referral shock - which is obviously not what we'd want when doing maximum damage to an opponent.

    Lee is well aware that if the head is cushioned it will lesson the impact. So after the initial "pre-emptive" strike, when he goes for the "hold" he will cup the head in a striking fashion (with a lot of force). This is done in order to create more referral shock and damage. So the head is hit one way, and suddenly it is hit in the opposite direction multiple times. Thus shaking the brain even further... And because the head is NOT being grabbed or anchored, it leaves it to move back and forth - much like a whip lash effect.

    I might drop him a mail, so he can explain it properly here.

    Thanks, but I'd rather not discuss that article. I want absolutely nothing to do with it and Rob Corwell removed any writers credits attached to it. I am not identified as the author. I do not endorse or agree with anything in that article. It does not accurately represent any views or opinions I may have. Personally I am disgusted with the whole thing :mad:

    Jon, Rob you're more than welcome to give me a shout, pm email or call re the article and I'll explain in full. But I am not commenting further on the matter here.

    Yours,

    Paul
