An idiom describing immediate and quick action or reaction which gives the impression of exploding out of the practitioner.

Comments:

The word Explosive is used to convey a general impression the maneuvers and/or methods leave when viewed from a second person's or third person's perspective (see Three Points of View).

Explosive Action could also be described as Continuity of Motion, Flow of Action,

Fluid Movement, Harmonious Movement, or a Sequential Flow - i.e. maintaining a quality of speed, continuity, and power.
