Snap! The sound of wood splitting into two brings great satisfaction especially when it is your bare hands that did it.
Being able to break things doesn’t take great genius. Drop a plate and it will smash into smithereens. When it comes to striking a break-board (specially designed board used by martial artists to practice technique) there is method to the madness. Before I go on to reveal the secret, I will say – don’t try this at home.
To break wood focus on hitting a point behind it. Go through the target. The moral of the story is when you’re aiming for something, go beyond your goal. It’s a bit like the saying, “Reach for the moon, if you miss it you will land in the stars”.

Now that’s what I call an anecdote! x

bizarrely, my dear old pops demonstrated this for me once, using my 10yr old self as the board while i was holding a pouffe in front of my chest. not sure what he thought was going to happen but i flew across the kitchen. despite the shock there was no damage done and i do indeed have an understanding of the power that can go into a one inch punch!
