General Execution Qualities
Scoring System

The Elite-Fighters System scoring system is designed to rank individuals being testing for advancement. The Ranking Trials requires the following General Execution Qualities to be examined:

• Form - 3 points total
• Speed - 3 points total
• Flow - 3 points total
• Power - 3 points total
• Body Control - 3 points total

Form is the proper application of basics within a standardized framework. For example, a vertical outward block is to be executed in an outward direction with the forearm in a vertical ending point, with the palm face inward. Proper Form enhances power, speed, accuracy etc.

Speed is the amount of time elapsed from the moment that the movement is decided upon until the movement has been completed, This also referred to as Movement Time.

Flow is the ability connect one movement to the next without loss of momentum, coordination, balance, accuracy, speed or power. It is also referred to as grace, synchronization and continuity of motion.

Power is defined as the amount of displacement of an object in the shortest amount of time. In physics. This breaks down into the equations:

Power = Work/time
Power = Force*displacement/time
Power=Force*velocity

Body Control is the ability of applying a movement, or sequence of movements, exactly as you intend. For example, after a kick has completed, a person with good body control will be able to set his foot back to the ground when he wishes, as opposed to the student who plants his foot down wherever his balance determines it to go. We often state, "Let your mind control your body - not your body to control your mind."

This category is an overall score taken throughout the trials.
