Punch Faster & Harder Now!
Are You Devoted to Making Your Punches Harder, Faster, and More Efficient?
This Collection of Punch Articles, Chapters, and eBooklets Will Help You Improve All Aspects of Your Punching Skills -- 100% Guaranteed!
Dear Martial Enthusiast,
If you are looking for ways to get your punches past your opponent's defense, if you want to be able to punch with both knockdown and knockout power, and if you want to improve everything about the way you punch, then you need to keep reading....
Everyone knows how to hit. Even school kids figure out how to punch in a fight.
But not all punches are the same.
Some untrained punches are fast and powerful -- most aren't. (To the eye of a trained martial artist, any sort of extra punch motion gives an incredible advantage.)
So, you'd think that studying martial arts, would provide a complete punching picture, right? Well ... not so fast. I am a big fan of martial-arts and self-defense classes. Still, even martial-arts training doesn't seem to have time to cover all aspects of power and speed punching.
And if they do focus on punching, often the punches are from their own style.
That's not good enough.
As editor of one of the longest running martial-arts ezines on the internet, Martial Arts Mastery, I can tell you that even the best martial artists are on constant lookout to find ways to make their punches more effective.
Over the years, I have read some of the same worries and needs from subscribers to MAM, from other martial artists, and even from people who just want to punch faster and harder.

Can You Guess Everyone's Greatest Punch Fears?
They cringed at the thought that other martial artists could out-punch them on speed alone. Many wanted to know how to make their punches faster.
The martial artists were afraid that their punches wouldn't have stopping power against a giant, muscular bad guy. They hit, and get a "so-what" response.
Some martial artists said that they didn't know how to make their punches practical. For example, they had a feeling in the pits of their stomachs that they wouldn't know how to get past a strongly-guarded defense.
And last, but not least, many practitioners wrote expressing their panic at the thought of having to punch their way through multiple attackers. (Can you imagine being tackled to the ground by a gang of thugs?)

Seasoned martial artists practice techniques thousands of times.
The question is, would their punches really work in a fight?

"...he offered to let me
punch him in the stomach."
"... been studying for four years. I can break three boards consistently with both a reverse punch and a ridge-hand strike.
"Last weekend, I was with a group of friends. This one guy, a friend of a friend, challenged my martial arts ability.
"Normally, I wouldn't have accepted the challenge, but he offered to let me punch him in the stomach. It was a dare. So, I figured I'd teach this guy a little lesson.
"I punched him, just a little too hard, I thought. Remember, I break boards with my punch.
"So, I punched him, and I knew that I had punched him hard. And ......... nothing! I didn't even knock him back. If I caused any pain, he didn't show it.
"Keith, can you help me?
Right now, I feel like calling it quits after four years. I'm bummed.
Do you have any advice? Please!
-- Chris W., Phoenix, Arizona.

Don't worry. I helped Chris and a bunch of other martial artists ... boxers, too.

"Golden Gloves Boxer Now Uses This Tactic"
When I was a high-school teacher on the Oregon Coast, I taught martial arts privately to a golden-gloves boxer.
Sometimes, he'd get frustrated that he couldn't find an opening. (I was no dummy ... wasn't about to let a skilled boxer punch me through a hole in my defense.)
So, I showed him a tip that he found immensely practical. In fact, he started using it every time he couldn't find an opening.
I turned the tip into a report, and filed it away for future use.
It's included in the ebook, "The Punch Papers."

How Would You Like to Be Privy to Some Key Information on Punching?
Before I tell you exactly what you'll discover in these pages, I'd like to tell you a little about who I am ...
My name is Keith Pascal, and I am a full-time martial arts author. I have written hardcover books, a soft cover book, ebooks, ebooklets, and articles about martial arts and self defense. I write for both off-line magazines and on-line ezines.
I have been practicing martial arts most of my life.
I started writing articles for subscribers to MAM, the martial-arts ezine I mentioned before. The readers started with an article on punching harder -- a few secrets never shared in print before.. From there, they sunk their teeth into a few articles and reports on punching faster.

The readers discovered how to make their hits more efficient and ultimately, more effective.
These first articles helped build a solid foundation. I wanted to do my best to help my readers, but didn't want this information available to the masses. You had to be a subscriber to read the articles. And they had to obey the copyright notice. No posting them on-line for all to see.
In the first round of articles, subscribers discovered:
"Three imperative principles to consider when perfecting your punch." This was great advice for a beginner -- a good review for the seasoned martial artist or boxer.
They also learned to "Develop Devastating Power Punches" with a minimal number of practice sessions. (I still get email complimenting the article and how it produces such fast results.)
Once my readers learned this super power punch, they worked on generating that kind of power with different targets and from short distances. (Ever hear of Bruce Lee's one-inch punch?)

Just One 'Punch-Hard' Chapter Could Help You 'Beat the Bad Guy'
If you only know a few punches and a trick or two about distance, you might survive the most basic of attacks. I think you definitely need more.
This ebook is not meant to be a complete course on martial arts. I am trying to help people see fast improments in thier punches. I also want to show everyone that you don't need rippling muscles to punch hard.
In fact, big muscles can actually slow down your punch speed. (Don't believe our local TaeBo instructor.)
What you need is some knowledge, how-to instructions not available in other books, and you need some practice -- practical drills.

"The More Complete Your Punching Knowledge and Ability, The Better Able You Are to Defend Yourself with Complete Confidence"

I know you are going to use the advice found in:
Get your punch in every time -- simple direct advice. Some spend years searching for this basic truth. Save yourself time and read this article. Advanced practitioners nod their heads in approval.

Which of These Punch-Related Tips Will You Use?
A 'mental exercise' that will help you improve just about any technique. Sometimes the way we consider a technque's flaws turns it into a much stronger move.
A distance fake that is so effective, I hesitated putting it in this eBook. I learned it while talking to two original Bruce Lee students. This is a perfect technique for your practice workouts.
A few chapters after that, you get a practice tip that really is worth the price of the book. It's subtle, but oh so effective. You can incorporate it into every practice session. You won't believe it until you try it for awhile. Then you'll never practice any other way.
A valuable piece of advice for training to take a straight blast -- a barrage of punches. If you feel that taking one punch is possible, but defending against a flury of punches isn't, then you need to read this article.
Another straight blast defense technique. I want to make sure you don't panic when the punches fly.

"Talent for Both Writing and Teaching"
Keith Pascal is one of those rare individuals ... a realistic martial artist with a talent for both writing and teaching.
He tells it like it is with his own style of writing -- with humor injected to keep things even more interesting.
I recommend Mr. Pascal to anyone wanting good, realistic martial arts instruction in any format.

I Want to Help You Punch Harder and Faster
But you need to make some effort too. You have to read new methods, and maybe practice a little ....
When you donwload the ebook The Punch Papers: How to Punch Harder, Faster, and More Efficiently, you'll discover:
Analyzing a fight. This is a new paradigm for defense -- one way to see a fight. It may just change the way you punch -- forever.
A Kickboxer tactic for getting in. More important, you find out how to stop the kickboxer tactic from being snapped on you. Use this punch tactic, before they get their attack under way.
Eight tips to develop a super back fist. (Over 70% of practitioners polled thought of this as their favorite hit.)
These back fist modifications. The famous martial arts author Loren Christensen gives us his two cents' worth on this effective technique.

"I have noticed a definite
increase in both the
power and efficiency ..."

I have noticed a definite increase in both the power and efficiency, in a relatively short time, of my students' and my own strikes since implementing a number of the drills into my practice and teaching.
I would highly recommend 'The Punch Papers' ebook to anyone who is seriously interested in improving their striking skills quickly and efficiently or that of their students.

Do you know of any other punch resource that shows you all of the following?
Interrupt the flow of the fight to really confuse a grappler trying to take you to the ground. These grappling articles give suggestions on how to beat groundfighters at their own game.
All about vertical punches. For those who can't rotate their punch horizontally in time, these gung fu (kung fu) punches are the answer.
What to do when a technique isn't working. This is advice of how to get out of a bad situation with a single, specific punch.
How to punch without using your fist. All about arm pops -- that jarr your attacker. (I recently saw a simpler variation of this technique in a Russell Stutely video.)
Complete instructions how to never flinch at a punch again -- I used this technique when I was a beginner. In my opinion, you'll never survive in a real fight if you don't have this skill -- especially if you are a boxer or a martial artist. Does the sharp pound of a hammer make your eyes blink? If so, this drill is a must for you.
(At my subscribers' request, they read a follow-up report that generalized the flinch elimination to include all panic responses. Can you imagine eliminating all of your panic reactions one by one?)
