Armpit. Some wrestling schools use armpits for elbow grips and throws, where the armpit plays the role of a point of support or clamping.
The front of the elbow. This is the surface of the middle part of the ulna, about 3-x inches (7,5 cm) from the tip of the elbow. This hard bone surface is used for a variety of strokes, for example, up the chin, a horizontal blow to the face.
The back of the elbow. This is the back of the humerus, just above the elbow. It is used to strike at the enemy, if he has covered you from behind and your hands are free, along the ribs, over the head. You can also use an elbow strike if the opponent is in front of you.

The elbow bend is also used to grip the head, the enemy’s head is pressed to its side, and you can beat the enemy or perform other actions.

The finger is stretched out and tense, the other three (without a thumb) are squeezed under it, giving it support. Such weapon used for strikes on vulnerable places of a person, pain points, such as the eye, solar plexus, neck. The effectiveness of the attack depends on the degree of preparedness of the fighter and his enemy.

Knuckles index, middle, ringless fingers and little finger. This is one of the most popular and used human weapons. Of course, it is desirable to strengthen it with regular push-ups on fists, working out percussion equipment on pears and other devices.

The back of the fist. Such punches work out in karate schools.
The bottom of the fist. The part where the little finger is located is often used as an “iron hammer” for striking the enemy.
