How can compressed air jet from a characters hands?

+0

I was wondering if there is a way to have a person with added organs and systems to be able to shoot jets of compressed air out of their body without them needing a giant gas bag or massive lungs?

Having read other questions theres some great suggestions on how to biologically explain how a character can use electricity or fire as forms of attack which emanate from their body and I was wondering if the same can be done for air attacks.

I thought if they had many holes on their back that open up like large pores that suck air in to be compressed in an organ or part of the system then the compressed air could be jetted out through a hole in their palms so the streams of air could be controlled and used as an attack almost like water or plasma cutters.

Is this something that could work or are there any better ways to have the same effect that could seem almost realistic?
