Where's the Beef?

.... if you don't strike AN ACTUAL MOVING, RESISTING OPPONENT WHO IS ALSO STRIKING YOU during your practice sessions for years how do you know if your strikes were effective and can stop an attacker?

I love it the resistance water lends to your movement. i work my Sow Choy under water all the time. i think its better than bands training.

I used to practice my forms on ice in tennis shoes. Don't know why I shared that. Plus I'd practice punching while standing on an inner tube floating in the water. Very good for balance. (hint: use a real inner tube from a truck tire. The stuff designed for pools won't hold your weight... the exception being tubes that are designed to be pulled behind ski boats. They'll hold your weight).

LOL...it's ok. I've had classmates call me during thunder storms and say let's go train out in the rain because of the wet resistance your clothes would give you. Then they'd break out the soap and wash their cars in the rain LOL.

these days i do alot of training in my garage with my students and our super is always washing the floor of garage which often leaves it pretty wet during our practice at times. if my students happen to slip they know my P.O.V. on it being "hey, out in the streets it could be wet when you get into a fight, so why not learn to deal with that in here?"

anyways very cool info bruddah

First define to me what "real kung fu" is.

two muscular angry men punching each other and wrestling for honor and justice

If you beat me with

- open hands, I'll come back with knife.
- knife, I'll come back with gun.
- gun, I'll sue you.

CMA is much much more than just open hands fight.

I like this guy....I really do....!
