I should add that my martial art is not anything to do with blocks, kicks, katas, etc...it is actually quite simplistic based on physics...simply it is this.....

Take your fist or elbow and......

Go straight to target, go with power (using acceleration), go smoothly (no load up, no telegraphing, etc..) as if wielding a samuari sword......through the target.

That's it. Now why it has taken me years and I still can't do this is beyond me.

For instance, why won't my fist simply go out "through space" as my instructor says? Why are there all these glitches? Why do I try to "punch" instead of just letting the hand go "out into space"?

Extremely frustrating stuff.
