Good point, I also prefer to operate on the outside for the same reason.

Good point, I don't know why I said "inner wrist" except I was trying to recall in my mind how the technique went. I suppose it would be possible to go from an outer/posterior check to a hand grab...

I think it is you who needs to learn some "respect". I don't think you know the meaning of the word. Telling someone they pulled a figure out of their "ORAFICE" because you disagree with them, and...

No sir, that's a conservative estimate. My teacher used to live in china and he says that in some places he went, at least 1 in 4 people wear traditional Chinese clothing that is identical to or...

Man you must be from a different planet. Here in Dallas alot of people wear their MA uniform in public. I did it too for a while because the locker room was infested with contageous foot fungus....

DNC101,
I agree that the initial technique you mentioned is unreliable. A guy I train with mentioned that if you get a knife-hand or gun-hand in the fold of your elbow, it would be pretty easy for...

We have Carlos Machado here and some other big name Muay Thai guy. I looked at Muay Thai and I don't think they are very precise. Probably because they are used to wearing those boxing gloves and...

Thanks for the link. It looks interesting, I have been thinking of ordering some tapes etc, but right now I am looking for firsthand training. I'm hoping someone will recommend someone. It could cut...

Looking for a reality training school/dojo in the Dallas (TX) area. I want to be able to drill in striking, grappling, jointlocks/immobilizations, throws, and takedowns. Some groundfighting training...

You guys who are talking about joint damage when using weights while punching, do you mean the joint damage that could occur when you miss the bag? My teacher says as long as you hit the bag without...

I am male and I agree with JAS 100%. I have seen women fight in NHB events and they kick a$$.

Yes, I would like to go to the fights on the 27th. I'll PM you.

Excellent. This shool is just about 1 mile from where I live. How convenient. Thank you for the recommendation bro. I will look into signing up.

It teaches "My Jhong Law Horn" style. Are they any good? Are there any other schools around N. Dallas that would be better?

The average thug or drunk could pull it off? Like I said I COULDN'T EVEN PULL IT OFF. It seems impossible to just walk up (or jump) next to someone while they are doing that type of kick. Maybe you...

That's true. I thought the same thing. Back by Tuesday? That was quick. I was thinking he would have flown to the USA and had the sugery done by a top plactic surgeon, then would have needed at least...

I see you caught my post before I could rewrite it.


That's true. You never know how well trained they might be. Good point.

Interesting. What kind of attack do they use to strike the kidneys...

Well mainly because people I respect are flexible like that, and can kick to the head. I would like to have that kind of versatility. I know kicking to the head is considered not a good idea. Is...

Yeah it is. A friend of mine also uses the term "pretzel" quite often, to describe it. :D
I'm definitely a Chin-na man. Interesting. I'll look for Yang Jwing Ming's videos. My friend once gave me a...

Well put. I have noticed that. I know a guy who has never had much of a hard time doing the splits, but cannot easily touch his toes. I on the other hand have always found it easy to touch my toes...

Excellent. The Stretchmaster is one of the 5 that I have seen ads for and that I may purchase.

I'm not familiar with those. What are they and where can they be ordered?

The knees are a joint, and as such they are capable of sustaining much less weight than a straight longbone like the thigh. It is never advisable to attempt to stretch a joint. The joints are not...

There are about 5 different ones that I have seen in catalogs and black belt magazine. Which one is the best?
