You don't get the x3 wounding modifier like you would for any other attack type, but you do get the same knockdown rolls.

You punch them in the solar plexus instead. According to
Martial Arts, Vitals are a valid hit location for crushing attacks, as Calvin points out. Crushing attacks to the Vitals do not do any more damage, but they do follow the normal Vitals rules for knockdown.
