I used to take Kumdo and I'm trying to get back into practice, but I can't remember whether an overhead sword strike should end with locked elbows. I'm pretty sure it should, but I think I overstrained some arm muscles. This might be because certain muscles are underdeveloped, or it might be because I need to slow down near the end of my strike puts less stress on my elbows. Anyone here practice Kumdo or a related sword style that can answer my question?
Also, should the tip of the sword move a bit more near the end of the strike than the blade?
