I've gone through two pairs of Disciplines in a year.

They are very comfortable and you can move and sweep like a cat... but as I said, I've gone through two pairs in a year. (after having my old...

This "Ignore" feature is great... but...

Can it be set so if a thread is started by a person on your Ignore list than the thread doesn't appear at all, even on the thread listing?

I am so sick...

I got noticable results with a double-end speed bag... the kind with the bungee cord attaching it to the floor and ceiling.

You start with it really loose, then when you can nail it about ten...

It looks like Mark Dacascos in those Brotherhood of the Wolf trailers. He rocks!

I notice the title on the trailers is subtitled in French "Le Pact des Loups" Was this movie originally shot in...

Most common interpretation of "jamming" that I use is jamming a kick in pre-kick mode by getting to close to it... ie. You see the skip beginning and front leg emptying for a skip side kick... you...

ElPietro makes an interesting point about the snack.

If you are going to exercise before sleep, then you must eat before sleeping. You don't want all your reserves depleted and then go to sleep...

There ARE adverse affects to "mega" dosing on some vitamins. I don't think 900% counts as megadosing... but thousands of times the recommended amount can be done quickly when taking vitamins in pill...

Just pick up a length of chain at Home Depot.

Two pieces of dowel, 2 big eye-bolts, voila, heavy rope.

want it heavier? Get a thicker chain. Afraid of it? Wrap a towel around the central,...

Correct!! Think of it like this, you are running and then hopping onto a carpet with your feet together, trying to make the carpet slide with your feet. That's the kind of foot placement you want....

We use both. I've always found that my wrist feels somehow sturdier and better aligned when I use a horizontal punch at levels below my sternum, vertical punch at levels sternum and higher.

I'm...

Earth Dragon,

There actually is an Iron Octopus Martial Arts school out there. Not the style... just the name of the school, which I honestly think is pretty cool. It would be a cool logo...

Yes, that is correct.

And I live in the sticks... I'm lucky there is a Chinese restaurant in my area.

I just read this entire thread, and am still laughing from that description of Willow [spits on floor].

But anyway, as long as we're re-casting the film, don't forget the most obvious casting...

What do you say, you know?

Sorry, man.

Fu ck.

Hee hee.... now I remember that thread.

You have to admit... he looks like he's having fun. LOL

At least we know what Screech has done with his talents since "Saved by the Bell" was...

I own a variety of books on chin na (not necessarily Eagle Claw, but applicable stuff).

I also own Master Shum Leung's book.

Allow me. "Fake!!! Fake!!!!" :rolleyes:

I disagree. I see it this way... we are a nation slow to anger. (Well... ok, maybe we get angry quickly, but it takes us a real long time to get angry enough to stop our petty bickering and...

Stranger,

Are you so certain about this? I've watched (I think) all of it that's been available to us. To my recollection, Walker did not "confess" to anything that is against the laws of the...

Here here, Kung Lek.

Would I be the first to stand up and cheer if this guy were brought back, tried, found guilty, stood against a wall and shot? Well, maybe not the first, but I'd be a close...

The problem with this whole situation is that this is such an absolutely bizzare and unique situation. A law has not been written that covers it. What this guy did does not fit the legal definition...

Eagle Claw is known for its chin na... but chin na ("seize and control" ) is found in most (all?) CMA. To say thay teach hsing-i AND chin na is like saying they teach hsing-i AND kicking. Could...

I have found that all the secrets of martial arts and of life can be gleaned from extensive studying of "Big Trouble in Little China."

Well... and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" of course.

I've read too many opposing views to have an opinion. Some magazines definitively state that there is hard scientific evident it increases fat loss. Others definitively state that there is NO...

The major weakness I see in my system is not in the system itself, but in the teaching/training of it.

Too much emphasis is placed on the forms, with not nearly enough emphasis on practicing the...
