One of the most unique characteristic of Wing Chun punch is "寸劲" (Inches distance generating power) or"长桥发力"( long bridge generating power or attacking),basically,We need to achieve "手不回身发" ( Don't need to pull your arms back,just push your elbows out to throw a powerful punch.)
It's the Oxygen flow and Blood flow that in side my body go though my six joints(heels,knees,waist,elbow
s,(shoulders),wrist) delivered to my hand to put out the Candle.
When I say "The Power is come from the ground",I mean I use the ground as my leverage point to back my body up,but the power is my Oxygen flow and Blood flow,people called this flow "Qi" or "Chi",Bruce Lee called it "water",but scientifically its just the combination of Oxygen flow and Blood flow.
Wing Chun Inches Punch just mean "short distance generating power" for "long bridge (range) attacking your opponent", 3 inches,6 inches or 12 inches, it doesn't matter,as long as it less than 1 foot long,it's still can be called Inches Punch.
The best way to do this drill,is Keep your Arm Straight & Side Stance.
