Hahahaha! Van me boy....... It is totally applicable and if utilized at the proper distance, is vey explosive......I'm right handed but I take a right hand lead(southpaw) my lead hand is my strongest, the way were taught to throw is to think of your arm as a whip, keep your arms up and nice and relaxed, when your punch is thrown and close to full extension you snap your wrist at the end and do the one inch punch..... Trust me it makes abig difference you can feel and hear it on the pads it also gets you in the good habit of bringing you hands back up for defense after a punch since it feels natural to do so.....

Try it...
And if that level of power can be delivered at that range,fully extended,just imagine what a fighter with that level of mastery of technique would do at full coil
You do JKD huh?
I allways wanted to see how similar it was to Ed Parker Ken-Po,Ed and Bruce worked together alot,and I know Ed had very similar ideas to alot of what Bruce was working on
