Eventually, you will naturally throw the most efficient and powerful punch.

COME ON GUYS!!!

The question is, do you have patience and drive?

I still say download the Bruce Lee video and take a tai chi class. IMO

And sorry for the outrageous burst earlier. Heh

I appreciate your enthusiasm for getting out and doing it. There are a lot of things that you can learn (to some degree) by just doing it. But with most things if you do not get the basics down before you try and go out on your own, you will likely be developing bad habits/techniques. Even with good instruction, people still have lots of bad habits and techniques that they need to overcome. For most people, I think it would be better to get good instruction.
