Time for me to ask the wonderful community for opinions. I tried to do a search but it came up with 14 pages of stuff.:erg: Forgive me ahead of time if its been asked too many times.
Im getting ready to test for orange belt in TKD and Im constantly told I need to be more aggressive/snappy/powerful in my techniques. Sabumnim says I have the technique right but I need to not be so "soft". Having studied Gumdo (korean sword), a flowy, softer art for a longer period of time Im stuggling to find this. What is even more confusing is Im told I have a more aggressive nature in my arts.
So what can I do to get more snap to my punches and kicks? Besides the obvious "practice, practice , practice", what specifics can I work on at home to help with this?
