Application of Internal Force in Palm Strike

Grandmaster Wong advises course participants to be very careful when applying the palm strike on their sparring partners (or even actual opponents) in this counter. Because of their internal force training, it is not uncommon that they can be more powerful than they themselves realize. With internal force, a palm strike on a person's solar plexus can be disastrous. It can distort the person's energy field without leaving any physical mark outside.

Sifu Wong gives an example of breaking a bottom brick of two bricks piled one on top of the other. Even a brick protected by another brick can be broken, one can imagine what damage can be done to an internal organ struck with internal force. Hence, we can merely push our sparring partner (or opponent) away instead of striking him.
