Temple Strike – a Pain He Will Never Forget

Temple Strike

Temple strike is not a name for some new Chinese shaolin movie. The Temple strike is a combat move with very high efficiency, aimed to the temple part of human head.

The temple is situated on the length of your eye from the outer eye corner. You will know you found the right place by pressing on it – you should feel a little pain.

I highly suggest taking the temple strike combat move as a finishing lunge that shall be used only when there is a clear opening or when you find yourselves behind the assailant.

The temple strike can also cause a knockout if done with enough power of the attack.
Remember that this combat move is considered dirty fighting, so it should not be allowed in regular martial arts competition since it causes an extreme pain.

Now how does the temple strike combat move look like…

Form your hand in the fist. Now take your middle finger and put it little bit forth so it’s knuckle is above others. The point of the knuckle is the striking area. I highly suggest you try the temple strike on you first… BUT don’t kill your selves. I don’t want anybody to get knocked out because of me :)

Just try to slightly hit your temple with the knuckle and feel the pressure it delivers to your head from the side. Try to increase the power a little so you can feel a little pain. You will find out that it takes no big effort to the temple strike at all and it already hurts you.

Now imagine delivering that combat move to someone in a full tilt. “BAM!” Man that shit must hurt!

Temple strike is a combat move that is performed from the side so it can be executed in a hook punch form from the front and as a normal punch strike from the sides. But still you must remember that this combat move is aimed on a really little spot so if you don’t have enough space to perform it well, then don’t! I have experience with temple strike a lot since it is one of my favorite combat moves.

With the temple strike combat move you can deliver really devastating pain and cause some serious damage so I want you to practice and use it safe.
