Non-Telegraphic Movement

To telegraph is to unintentionally alert your opponent to your next offensive move. It refers to unintended preparatory movements which act as signals or tells, lowering the chance of your attack being successful. Common examples would include drawing the hand back before throwing a punch, trying to shoot a takedown from too far away, taking an unnecessary step before kicking or even shifting the gaze of the eyes to the area of the opponents body to be attacked.

Non-telegraphic movement is offensive movement which is technically sound and implemented with good distance. It is technically sound in that unnecessary preparatory movements have been eliminated. The move is initiated at the right distance to avoid your opponent from having the time to recognize your offense and easily counter. 

"Don’t waste motion. Have a purpose in every action of deception, defense or attack. Don’t telegraph any punches."
