Hello,
I have just begun my shootfighting classes(attended five so far). I have been practicing my punches and kicks.
Initially I used to punch without using my shoulders(amateur punches)... and my kicks(without thrusting my hips).
After a few classes, I got this part right using the shoulders and the hips for punches and kicks.
However, it seems like I am not generating enough power. My instructor tells me that my punches don't look like it's going to hurt and that they are very weak.
We practice punching the air in the class mainly. How do I work on making my punches stronger and more powerful?
Thanks.
