Wasn't really sure where to stick this one...so i put it here. Lately i've been thinking a lot about body conditioning...when the korean that founded the dojang i train at retired a lot of the old stuff that used to be done like body conditioning/hardening...makiwara work slowly slipped away..this really isn't a problem for most...we still condition our knuckles with nice knuckle pushups on a hardwood floor. I also own a makiwara and train with it. But I'd like to strengthen some of my other strikes as well, plus, I enjoy breaking and making things a challenge...and i'd like to attempt a spearhand break...but i'm not stupid enough to go grab a board and try it...I know how that'll end...i might break the board...but most likely just a finger or two. So my question is this, does anyone here practice for spearhand breaks...what do you recommend. I know my judo/jujitsu instructor has a fierce nukite...but i don't get to see him really in the summer. And i'd like to start working on this. Any suggestions on how to strengthen this strike? Thanks in advance.
