Me: back in '87-92 did a bad version, '95 did a better version, aside form bag wok(gloved and otherwise), don't do it much now, probably will again sometime.

8 years so far.
And before that, regular makiwara and or bag work since 1980.
Psalms 144:1
Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
Like KC, in the 90's did some-used the wrong jow, the wrong way-made my bones brittle-broke three fingers in one year...
Just started taking it up again as part of my general training, coupled with makiwara and lien gung.
Basically, at 54 (this July) I need to increase/maintain my bone/muscle density so it makes sense to train ip.
"My Gung-Fu may not be Your Gung-Fu.
Gwok-Si, Gwok-Faht"
"I will not be part of the generation
that killed Kung-Fu."
....step.

um, ok, so read, stupid
Using the wrong jow incorrectly made my bones brittle.
It was a very caustic, black vinegar based jow that was only supposed to be used sparingly, during final phases of training.
I soaked my hands in it three times a day in the beginning of my training.

Let's see if I got this straight. It's not just hitting, it's the jow?
The jow determines whether your bones get strong or brittle?
Is that what you are claiming?
well, perhaps plumdragon could shed some light on this.
Basically, certain herbs affect bone...
sort of how....medicine can zero in on a specific area. herbs=medicine. Get it?
(we need a hand to forehead icon..)
the jow is a crucial PART of the training.
Jeez, are you really that stupid?
I mean, really?

Let me get this straight.
You are a stupid little monkey.
Everyone else here is a calculus professor.
No matter what, you will never understand because you are uninvolved.
Now go fling your poop elsewhere little monkey, or we'll smash your head open and eat your brains while we laugh, drink tea and talk of the adventures of Judge Dee!
Kung Fu is good for you.
Last warning.
