    barely waist high and I've only really tried to do that for 20-30 seconds

    but I'm old and fat.

    Well, if I hold for 2 minutes I start just above the waist, but by the time I hit 100 seconds, it's between the waist, and the knee.
    Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

    BTW I'm with Mac. But for the record I can do a fifteen minute sil lum tao with a front kick position at waist height... but getting old and arthritic, I then have serious trouble putting it down and walking with it again!

    i hear ya...these days it not so much what I can do during the trianing but how much pain i'm in later...though to be sure, I'm capable of less than I was 10 years ago.
