Which list correctly represents the Front Strike Series?

• A. Palm Heel, Hammer Fist, Upward Elbow, Side Elbow, Knee
• B. Palm Heel, Hammer Fist, Upward Elbow, Knee
• C. Hammer Fist, Upward Elbow, Side Elbow, Knee
• D. Palm Heel, Hammer Fist, Front Kick, Knee

Answer: (A)

The Front Strike Series is a progression of forward-moving strikes designed to move from longer-range control into close-range power. The sequence that fits this series starts with a palm heel to disrupt and establish distance, followed by a hammer fist to drive through the center line as you close in. Then you bring in two elbows—an upward elbow for tight, vertical control and a side elbow for horizontal reach in close quarters—before finishing with a knee, which maximizes impact at the closest range. This order keeps advancing the attack through increasing closeness and uses the most effective tools at each range. Other options omit an essential component or insert a kick, which breaks the defined flow of the Front Strike Series.
