Punch

Turn the fist at the last inch of the punch, just before 
the arm straightens. Maintain straight wrist throughout.
Keep the elbow close to the body during execution of the punch.

Most common error is to turn the fist as it leaves the chamber, 
to bend the wrist flipping the punch incorrectly and/or winging
out the elbow.

Arigato,
Kyoshi Robert Scaglione.
