If you are practicing martial arts: kung fu, boxing, karate, taekwondo, kickboxing, any predominantly hand striking martial art styles, it is worth noting that your true power in your striking techniques comes from your legs and lower body structures pushing into the ground - ground rooting technique.
Generating power by driving your feet off the ground is an efficient, biomechanically sound way to generate a massive amount of power in your punching or hand striking techniques.
Instead of being led into flashy, acrobatic techniques, practicing ground technique is not flashy and sometimes can be frustrating. Once you achieve a breakthrough, the feeling is very rewarding, and the ingrained muscle memory will serve you well.
