Hei Long

Every experienced martial artist knows that understanding the laws of physics is the key to creating impact power. If you are intersested in generating maximum impact power with minimum effort, Neng Da will show you the way.

In his 12th book, renowned author Master Hei Long shares his research into the most perfect methods for executing many variations of punches, back hands, knife hands and palm strikes. Each technique is illustrated with anatomically detailed drawings to highlight the effects of the laws of gravity, centripetal force, centrifugal force, inertia, and ocmpoound force on the body for each segment of the movement.

The drawings and relevant laws of physics are explained in plain English, allowing you to gain expert insight into each movement without years of research and experimentation. Neng Da is an excellent resource for martial artists of all styles who want to get the most out of every punch.

About the author: Master Hei Long is the author of 12 martial arts books inclukding the classics Dragon's Touch and Guge Gongji. He is a lifelong martial artist who has done extensive research into the physics and anatomy of the martial arts.

When Dragons Touch was first published in 1981, violence was less common and crimes less sophisticated than what is commonly encountered on the streets of America today. carjacking was almost nonexistent, assaults at ATMs were rare, and gang warfare wasn't as pervasive and inescapable as it has been in the nineties. As citizens begin to recognize that crime is too rampant for law enforcement to handle effectively, they are taking responsibility for their own defense and survival as never before, whether by arming themselves or training in the martial arts.

Master Hei Long maintains that since a weapon or defense device of any kind is vulnerable to mechanical failure, surprise attack, and human error, the most dependable defense is reliance on one's own abilbity to take out an opponent in hard-core hand-to-hand combat. In this book, he focuses on 20 pressure points you can use as targets of counterstrikes. Effective strikes to these anatomical targets will result in crippling phyisological damage or, in some cases, death.

More than just an introduction to pressure points, this manual offers a careful study of hand weapons postures and provides more hat 50 practical applications for the featured anatomical tragets. Because all of the techniques herein are extremely dangerous and many can be lethal, the material is presented for academic study only.

Striking deadly blows,' the literal translation of Da Zhimingde, typifies the mechnaics of this system of self-defense, which is built around seven critical anatomical targets.

The results of properly executed attacks to these vital sensory and life-support organs are brutal and devasting, more often than not, they are final.

Here, Master Hei Long pin-points the locations of these targets, describes their functions and vulnerabilities, and outlines the most effective anatomical weapons and angles of force to be used on each. He then presents a careful lesson in the practical application of the techniques described.

It is by design, not coincidence, that the targets of Da Zhimingde can be deadly. These are the areas you aim for when someone is seriously threatening your life.

Knowing them well may allow you to spare a life if you have reason...and take one if you must. For information purposes only.

In this groundbreaking study, Master Hei Long unveils the secrets of Gouzao Gonji, a no-nonsense system of self-defense consisting of seven highly effective anatomical targets. Attacks to these areas, when appied strategically, will effectively cripple an assailant's nervous system.

In this book the Master pinpoints these primary targets and reveals how a properly delivered blow can bring about the desired effect, be it disrupted balance, acute pain, unconsciousness (or a semiconscious, gasping state), or a temporarily paralyzed limb. Then he provides a detailed account of which anatomical weapons and angles of force are most effective for achieving the precise results you are after, as well as an in-depth lesson in the practical application of the movements described.

The targets presented herein are not lethal or even critical-but not every confrontation calls for such severe action or warrants such devastating consequences. Instead, these seven targets offer a comfortable middle-ground option, arming you with the tools needed to inflict neurological damage serious enough to stop an assailant of comparable size, strength, and weight in his tracks.
