About Standing Fierce Punch

Standing Fierce Punch uses a staggered stance, an open-palm forward extension, and a fist on the return. Press forward smoothly, draw the hand back, and reset before changing sides. Keep a soft elbow at the end of the reach.

What to focus on

Keep the forward extension smooth and the elbow soft.
Notice the hand opening on the press and closing on the return.

Make the movement smaller

Shorten the stance and reach, using only a comfortable knee bend.

A mistake to watch for

Snapping the elbow straight at the end of the press. Stop short of a locked elbow and slow the return.

Practice time and pacing

The app assigns 30 seconds to Standing Fierce Punch. Use that as a time block, with pauses whenever you need them. Move at the demonstration’s controlled pace; the timer is not a repetition target. Watch the full movement once before following along.
