Gas and Karate don't mix. They are both just too powerful. Huh? Well, you try doing crunches surrounded by fellow karate students when you have a big gas bubble in your stomach trying to escape. Stomach muscles push it down, butt muscles push back up, stomach muscles down, butt muscles up, over and over. "Must... not... release... gas!" It almost hurts more than the aching abs!
Jumping jacks are even worse! How in the world are you supposed to hold a fart in when you come down and hit the floor with your legs spread wide??? So far, only one has escaped during class drills. Fortunately, everybody yelled at the same instant, so only the guy next to me probably heard it. My own yell and dropping my weight was what pushed it out. "Hya!/pppttttt!" Wow! I can kiai out both ends at the same time! But I don't think gassing your attacker is a valid Kenpo technique.
