There's a Capoeira move like that, and I can do it - although not quite to the freakish level of that kid. You do need very flexible shoulders, but it's nothing you can't develop with a bit of time...

Also in Big Boss, or whatever it is we're calling it. I love the bit where Bruce Lee has to fight all those Alsatian dogs and they're all flying around over his head and stuff.

My least favourite...

This happened in Fist of Fury. They figured out he was Japanese because he was wearing Japanese underwear. There was a dramatic close-up of his chest/midriff area but it was to highlight his...

This thread is the best argument for why we need to be able to post images!

Oh right.

Well what about Brighton & Hove Fencing Club?

I know they have a club at Sussex Uni. Don't know if they let non students play as well though.

Yeah, I know; but I was more posting it for the weight lifter types on here. Thought they might be interested.

Actually, if you check that page he's got a fairly long list of MAs he's trained in....

Happened across this clip earlier today. I thought it was refreshing to see a big guy like that jumping around and generally going nuts like all the guys that are ten years younger than him....

No, actually I've seen this dude before.

He gets some sort of oil or something injected directly into his muscles to artificially inflate them.

Sorry, according to Ladder Theory you don't have a chance.

Saw this movie last week. Definitely worth seeing.

Try www.playwell.co.uk if you're in the UK. I've used them a couple of times. They're quick and fairly cheap.

I read a book a while ago that talked about wheat. If I remember right, there's a lectin in wheat that mimics the effects of insulin. It binds to your fat cell receptors, causing them to stop burning...

I think the bad guys trap him in the sauna and intend to torture him with the intense heat and humidity, but he defeats their intentions by training in there.

:confused:

It was a funny movie....

Hidden Tiger

I saw this one.

I like the bit where he has to run all the way along the beach with a mouthful of water. And also when he starts training in the sauna. :confused:

Doesn't he do...

Survival of the fattest? :D

Well that's ok, I can't take much more than three minutes of hanging upside down before my head starts to feel weird.

Oh yeah.. didn't spot that one. Heels I mean. :o

I'm getting pretty good at the hanging situps. Mind you I've been attempting Pavel's standing ab wheels and dragon flags for a while, so I'm...

I tried the butt-to-knees exercise yesterday - it's pretty difficult.

The one with the dumbells I can't really do at the moment because my bar is mounted in a doorway.

Thanks for the...

Just got myself a cheap pair of gravity boots. :D

What do all of you think about these things, and hanging upside down in general? What are the benefits? Are there any dangers?

Also, does...

Sounds dynamic to me.

Sleemie is right, though I'd say don't do ballistic, but definitely do dynamic.

Static stretching is not necessary for high kicking.

What's the arrow pointing at? Maybe your computer is trying to show you something.

I think there's a benefit for strength gain. You probably wouldn't get much growth hormone release.
