文档介绍：5-1. EXTENDED ARM PUNCHES AND STRIKES
Extended arm punches and strikes in long-batives, like those in medium-batives, should be directed at vital points and nerve motor points. It is essential to put the entire body mass in motion behind long-range strikes. Closing the distance to the target gives the fighter an opportunity to take advantage of this principle.
a. In extended punches, the body weapon is usually the fist, although the fingers may be used—for example, eye gouging. When punching, hold the fist vertically or horizontally. Keep the wrist straight to prevent injury and use the first two knuckles in striking.
b. Another useful variation of the fist is to place the thumb on top of the vertical fist so that the tip protrudes beyond the curled index finger that supports it. The thumb strike is especially effective against soft targets.
In long-batives, the distance between opponents is such that batants can engage one another with fully extended punches and kicks or with handheld weapons, such as rifles with fixed s and clubs. As in medium-batives, a fighter must continuously monitor his available body weapons and opportunities for attack, as well as possible defense measures. He must know when to increase the distance from an opponent and when to close the gap. The spheres of influence that surround each e into contact in long-batives. (See Chapter 6 for interval gaps and spheres of influence.)

Kicks during hand-to-bat are best directed to low targets and should be simple but effective. Combat soldiers are usually burdened bat boots and LCE. His flexibility level is usually low bat, and if engaged in hand-to-bat, he will be under high stress. He must rely o
