How is your meditation helping you develope your ki? What types of meditation are you using? How exactly is the ki aiding in your strikes?

i use standard meditation methods. sitting quietly on the floor focusing and tuning my body mind and spirit. it helps me train my ki because i meditate before i practice wich helps me focus on the task at hand instead of whats going on around me. the last one is a tricky one sorta. hard to explain. the best answer i have to give is the ki aye. sorry i butchered the spelling. sensei hasnt taught the spelling so i use sounds. also the more in tune you are the better your strikes are.

It takes a bit more than sitting quietly meditating before training to cultivate ki.

" ki aye"

I assume your talking about kiai. I'm sure Scott or Reiki can she a bit more light on this for you.

It sounds a little like your being misslead. If you are seeing more poser in your strikes it's more than likely due to simply improving your technique and foot placement not ki.

yes, thats the word. sorry about the spelling again.

it isnt just the meditation that improves my ki its the application of my focus. while i do get better with technique more spirit is also added. if this is not ki then what is it?

Body mechanics. In order to cultivate ki to be used even remotely like you say you need some type of qigong excercise. The best person, in my opinion, to ask is kempoman.
