Muay Thai Driving Elbow Technique
Although the elbow is a short range weapon, it can also be used from farther out than what is traditionally taught. Applying the momentum from your drive generates a lot of power.

An underlying lesson learned from this is to acquire the ability to move off your strikes, stay dynamic.
