Well I guess they got what they deserved then.
Hmmmm.... I think that is what I have been saying!
Fruitcakes have a place in the the Taoverse too!
All experience of reality is determined by subjectivity. Life is nothing but a subjective interpretation of phenomena. There really is no such thing as objectivity. Objectivity is founded upon subjectivity.
Sorry but that is simply not true. Valvalsa should never be done when when lifting heavy weight period. The amount of the intrabdomal pressure you have during a bowel movement is not the same as when you're lifting heavy weights! My god. What you end up doing is increasing not only the intrabdomal pressure but you also increase intracranial pressure and the pressure within all of the other organs. No physician in there right mind would recommend this unless the person was extremely fit and even then still not a good idea. For the record and anybody reading this I would advice please do not hold your breath, you'll hurt yourself. If you don't get hurt you eventually will.
Lol, Your suppose to physical therapist yet you don't know this basic physiology? You don't even take into consideration the patients risk factors? You just assume everyone is a perfect specimen? I may not be an authority on chi cultivation but I definitely not sit back and let you give bad health advice. I wonder how many referrals you get from physicians...

You are clearly dishonest in quoting the complete sentences from my post. I suspected that you were such a person. Now I suspect that most probably you were also dishonest about your in depth training in qigong.
There is no shame in failing. It might be because of lack of discipline, lack of talent or not having access to genuine instructors but whatever the reason is I suggest that you stay with what you know in terms of scientific explanations and don't get yourself involved in things like qi which you were not trained enough to know.
@guy b.:
Exactly. By the same logic if you were not trained to open your heavenly eye and see qi doesn't mean that qi doesn't exist.Um, what to say to this?
The fact that deaf people can't hear noise does not mean noise does not exist.
In Buddhism 5 different kinds of eyes are mentioned and the second type is your 天眼(heavenly eye). If you read chinese search for 开天眼. You can also search for 看光法 which I think is the daoist term and consists of 内光(internal light) and 外光(external light) which refer to internal and external qi. There are also books on seeing aura in English that might be helpful.
A good, up to date paper on the subject

"Wing Chun is a bell that appears when rung.
have u ever actually studied Olympic weight lifting technique?
http://www.catalystathletics.com/art...p?articleID=37
while there are potential adverse effects, but also means of mitigating them;
the key point as the article points out is using the breath to stabilize;
I have done this, it's totally fine - of course, I was not lifting anywhere near the level of the top guys, but in terms of the technique itself, there was no sense of straining - I have felt more from doing something like "Closing the Iron Gate" type of qigong
no; u say that u went to Medical School, attempting to establish yourself as an authority of some type; u volunteered the information; since you brought it up, I am asking a f/u question; if any one is behaving ridiculously, it's you;
why is it such a big deal to relay this? for example, I am a PT w a Master's Degree from Columbia University; there; that wasn't hard, was it?
You don't know what you are talking about. Every weight lifter hold his breath for part of his lift and then slowly exhales as the lift progresses. There are no rampant aneurysms or hernias amongst this group.
You are a fine example of a Doctor Who is full of himself..... If you are a Doctor.

yeah, and also I provided the links back to your original post, meaning that if someone wants to read the post in its entirety, they r perfectly capable of doing so; so how is that being dishonest?
wow, you will just try to come up with any sort of rationalization to support your perspective; you can't possibly entertain the slightest possibility that I am correct; you must be either massively insecure or...no, I guess that's all there is;
lol; I guess you have succeeded in ur qigong training, since it's resulted in ur becoming an arrogant bastid like most qigong "experts";
trust me, u have NO idea about my training - if u did, it wud make ur brain short circuit, because it wudn't jive w ur limited world view of how u think that things shud b
LOL, Of course, of course you would know right? Tell this to all the average (not a "weight lifter") people who ruptures these hidden aneurysms (most people don't know they have them until they do rupture) or those who come to the ER for inguinal hernias/abdominal hernias. These people are athletes nor are screened by physicians before injuring themselves. Yes I am a horrible doctor. ;-)

r u an orthopedist?
from ur defensiveness, I have the feeling that u either a) never completed medical school; b) did so outside of the states and never got ur ECFMG certification; c) u are a DO practicing family medicine; d) a PM&R doc who really doesn't do much of anything at all
I'm also surprised that u haven't trashed me for being "only" a PT - usually by now that's where the conversation goes w docs when I have the audacity to not be shocked into abject silence when they post here...
u r wrong; it's perfectly fine; heck, they teach this at cross fit classes all the time - I have seen middle age Long Island housewives do this and be just fine; really, u r embarrassing urself, and shud just stop now
