MuayThaiArt.com is here every two days to teach you Muay Thai moves and right now we’re been talking about MuayThai’s Cherng Mud. There are 15 of them and now it’s time for number 6 called “INTRA KWANG JAK”

INTRA KWNG JAK is the Thai name for the Throw the Lengthy Punch. Let’s see what this move really is and what it can do, and then we’ll take a look at how to do it.

The move is used for attack, defense and also escape. It is particularly helpful when there is a considerable distance between the two fighters. Moreover, this blow targets the opponent’s neck and is as a consequence best used when the neck area is left open and vulnerable. If you want to do this move, you need to hold up your right fist in front of you, and right after straightening your right arm makes a step forward with your right foot. Then the long-range downward hit is then delivered strike into the opponent’s neck or nose from the right.

With a quick movement, you can prevent the long punch by moving your straight left arm above your head and then swing your arm to sweep your opponent’s right arm away.

To Defense: Vigorously fling a left swing kick, targeting the boxer’s right spine. If the INTRA KWANG JAK is thrown with a straightened left arm, make a swing kick with your right leg, this time aiming for the left rib.

For Muay Thai fighters, as same as for Thai people, incantation was or has been a part of their belief. They used to have hidden faith in the supernatural art of prayer. So now you can tell what our article is about today. If you want to learn Muay Thai, this is another thing that you can’t miss. To be a Muay Thai fighter, you have to think as a Muay Thai fighter or at least understand what he thinks.

Lots of Muay Thai fighters or trainers studied the subject matter, believing that incantations would give them miraculous strengths to conquer their opponents without difficulty and give them stamina and invincibility, shielding them from all people and things.

Many who have studied this art believed that an incantation uttered before or during a fight had the supremacy to keep them from being knocked out, as a mouthful of air would instantaneously bring back their consciousness.

Incantations or in Thai called “Kartar Arkom” were not only part of a rich oral tradition but also were in due course printed for reference. Many incantations books can still be found if you really looking for or they can be passed hand to hand from generation to generation.

I want to give you an example here. One prayer called “Gam Pan Nak Muen” is believed to give the fighter the conviction of winning with just a single punch. “Gam Pan Nak Muen” literally means “Thousand Kilograms Fist”. In the past, many Muay Thai fighters had these tattoos on the back of their hands which incorporated the power of this said spell.

You can still find incantations nowadays, for instance, that said blowing wind before a fight. Basically it really give the fighters confidence and urge to win overcome their opponents. Believe it or not, many times it works! Without incantation from sacred teacher or trainers might decrease their confidence and they might lose the game. They in fact stuck in this belief already!

KHOK NASA is also identified as the Bent Fist. This move is used for attacking. This strike is delivered by bending the elbow and delivering the blow sideward and downward, aiming to the opponent’s nose or to his left jaw (if you’re right-handed). Even the inner wrist is bent to apply greater strength to the punch. If you want to do this move, you have to step your left foot forward, then your body will be twisted to the left and the punch will be thrown down in a swift move.

Let’s take a look at our drawing of this move first.

Now, while attacking the boxer must avoid looking down to his feet or the ground if he is likely to throw uppercuts. To defend against this move, the left hand should be held up to shield against the blow coming from the left side. The left arm will also be used to sweep over in a smooth motion to ward off the boxer’s right arm, and the body is slightly swayed to maintain the balance.

To defense: Use your left knee to strike the right rib of the boxer. If the boxer is a left-handed, just reverse the described moves above using the opposite site of the body.

That is it for KHOK NASA or the Bent Fist. Stay with us for the next Muay Thai punching move right here.
