Hi Dr4gOn
Have you had much martial arts experience in the past? You have stated that you are about to start Taekwondo. If so (please do not take this the wrong way) do you know how to punch without breaking your wrist, elbow or other part of your anatomy?
If the answer is yes then read on. I have been reading up on this subject and actively practised for a while and here is the advice I can give.
1. Relax shoulders and arms
2. Assume a stable and balanced stance (the stronger the foundations of a temple, the stronger it fights against the elements)
3. Focus 2-3 inches behind your target
4. Punch with arms and shoulders relaxed up until the split second of impact...
5. At that moment think of and feel an element (fire, water, etc..) and a colour (red, blue,etc...) and remember to Kiai upon impact.
This may be cagey but I can't think of any other way to write it.
I'm sorry I don't understand why you are trying to run before you can walk but I hope my advice helps. Unfortunately it would take more than this would allow to go into finer detail, you must see or feel it for yourself. Post back if you want anymore.
Lee
