I come to you with only karate,empty hands, I have no weapons, but should I be forced to defend myself, my principles, or my honor, should it be a matter of life or death, of right or wrong,then here are my weapons, karate, my empty hands.
KENPO CREED
Swinging Pendulum (with extension)
(Front, vs. a right roundhouse kick)
From a right neutral, execute a right inward and left downward block (forming a Universal block), push-drag shuffle into opponent with right foot to 10:30 with a right hammerfist to groin, right rising elbow (to sternum)*, lock out your right leg into a right reverse bow and buckle your opponent’s left leg, rising ox-jaw or forearm strike to underside of chin keep opponent upright.
*(you can add an additional hammer fist strike to the groin after the rising elbow to add compound injury to the opponent’s chin on the lifting/rising ox jaw or forearm strike)
Extension:
From your right reverse bow, step with right to 6:00, step with your left to 10:00 into a left reverse bow (“V” step pattern), buckling opponent’s right leg with your left, left horizontal outside elbow to solar plexus, left hand moves to opponent’s face and contours his left side with the back of your hand (this stops his head motion and stabilizes his head for next strikes), right 2-finger slicing (left to right) eyespear strike to right eye (his injury is compounded because his head cannot spin to the left because your left hand placement), figure-8 movement to an inverted crossing/slicing (right to left) eyespear to left eye (head spins for compound injury of next strike), left elbow and right heel-palm strike to head (sandwich), left rear cross-over (behind) away from opponent with a left backfist to head, pivot counter-clockwise into right neutral with a right hook punch to head, continue circular motion with a right front cross-over and a left spinning back thrust kick to solar plexus, cover.
