My 1.5 hour client returned to a theme we explored almost a month ago: targeting only the body and legs. This unusual restriction created some interesting situations before and we decided to try it again. We came to these following conclusions:
Elbow strikes were virtually unused due to no head shots
Kicks dominated, but could not be relied upon due to how wearing they become especially after taking and defending leg kicks
The need to land body punches meant overall more engagement and fighting in the pocket
