You've gotta actually swing hard to get the full damage out of your punches. My internet has currently shat the bed so when it recovers we can play a game. Wild arm flailing gets you nowhere and depletes your characters stamina. Low stamina means your characters fists trail behind a bit and move slower so you can't really do any damage. Keeping them still recharges so it's a good opportunity to block and dodge. Sounds a bit weird having a stamina system in a vr game but it really helps pace the fights and forces you to pick your opportunities rather than just flail.
Campaign mode is a good bit of exercise too. Plays very differently to pvp though.
