Using the Spear Elbow to Help Create Space to Draw Your Weapon

What should you do if someone rushes you with a haymaker punch? Myles shows an application of the spear elbow to protect yourself from a sudden attempt to punch you while simultaneously helping you make space to draw your weapon. Moving straight back when you're rushed and surprised can be detrimental–you can fall or be taken down. This application, when done correctly, places a lot of force on your opponent, pushing them back, giving you ample time and space to draw your weapon.
