One Inch Punch

An explosive short range punch, made famous by the late Bruce Lee. Seemingly magical to the unlearned, it is actually the result of a perfect synchronisation of all the muscles used in a regular punch (shortened down to about 1 inch). Requires extremely high skill to be effective.

One more time

A phrase used by band directors and musical instructors of most kinds. Typically, it is assumed that the phrase means you will only be trying the music "one more time", but generally the phrase becomes repeated, and one more time evolves into three or four.

Our band director shouted "One more time", but we knew that we would in fact do the entire show at least three more times before finally leaving practice.

*collective groan*
