I talked to a karate fighter who participated in a study in which the karatekas had higher punch output when their straight punch arm was bent compared to extended. This was a surprise to them.
Could it be that there's greater bicep engagement when the arm is bent compared to straightened out? Also perhaps stronger wrist support at the point of impact?
