lots of americans get intergrated into china. this guy is living in lala land. he thinks his incredible physical prowess is scaring the chinese.
looking at your rubber chicken neck and arms that make sine waves when you punch, you definitely make other baji people in china sh1t their pants. send fear into their innermost being.

I don't think it's necessary to have experience in a certain form of MA to offer a sincere critique of how one person moves compared to the other. In this case, person A seems to be focusing on issuing and projecting power whereas person B has a more relaxed, fluid motion but still exhibiting power.
the theory of ba ji rooting is actually very deep or hard.
we may stomp feet in every posture.
--
in the old time, people may know how good your rooting by listening the sound of your stomping.
snappy or crispy is light and superficial.
muffled is deep and heavy.
--
my point is that ba ji has many stomping feet practice.
actually, many styles have stomping feet including tai ji.

I totally agree SPJ you see stomping power in some of the best styles. For some of the others who posted in this channel i'm amazed you guys haven't been perm banned yet from this forum. I do have one question though to the thread starter, you turned down a fight with a woman? Cause I think bawang brought it up and I didn't see you even reply to it, that looked pretty bad to me. I think its one thing to ignore a pointless rude comment which you seem to do pretty well but you're also not addressing some of the points they are making. I watched your videos though and i'm just glad to see more videos of Baji to be honest.
I did say on the previous page:
By way of analogy, the dan tian thing I am talking about is the engine. The form is rest of the power train. Shifu even likes to compare dan-tian work to the compression chamber in the pistons. I have an older interview where he's saying that without the compression, you get no explosion....I'd argue that proper form transmits power efficiently but that form is not the source of powerI'd argue that proper form transmits power efficiently but that form is not the source of power
There's a lot of parts of a car that all contribute to it's speed, acceleration, handling etc. but what kind of engine drives the thing does matter. All I am saying is that my teachers approach is to start building a fighter from the engine and build the rest of drive train out from there. You could build a car by building everything else first and dropping the engine in at the end but I think his view is that the engine is the trickiest part, takes the longest time, so get to work on it first.
You want both but again, would you rather have a sloppy form that was fast and powerful or an accurate form with no power? What's a more serious problem with a car? A burnt out clutch or burnt out cylinders in the engine?
I'm making a relative, not absolute comparison here.

It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

Yet I still feel the same about it. I critique the hell outta some youtube, movies, etc.. However it's from "my point of view"; a view that is not educated nor experienced of the style in question.
For me to say that they should have done x instead of y is silly, because I have no idea about the alphabet being used whatsoever.

I have taken about 8 single moves out of the Baji forms and make it into drills. This way, I can train those "Baji power generation drills" along with my "Mantis speed generation drills" and "Longfist kick punch combo drills". This way, I don't have to think about style vs. style.
this isnt some newbie that just got to china. that would be understandable.
this guy been training in china for ten years. ten fukin years.

this guy act like a mamas boy on chiense tv, then does a complete 360 talking sh1t about people in xian, saying theyre afraid of him, jealous of him, how he will infiltrate them and make them think hes one of them. this is more than disrespect. this is treachery. this is unforgivable.
im taking break from this forum. thanks for reminding me to train hard so i dont end up looking like you. fukin disgrace.
