As well some people have immunities to certain pressure points, so you never know when your fighting against someone who does. I'm immune to the pressure point between your pinky and ring finger because my pinky finger is double jointed and the joint blocks the pressure point.

I'm sixteen, have a fast metabolism, I HAVE a visible six pack, but i want to make it bigger... i also like junk food. Since i already have low body fat would i still have to diet?

they protect your opponent somewhat, but they mainly protect your fists. its harder to get the sort of "sting" with boxing gloves which you could with two knuckles.

well... I'm only sixteen, i'm pretty skinny but TKD and Track and field, sports, and weigtlifting have probably dirven my body fat below 13%. Is the diet's only purpose in getting the 6-pack to loose body fat? if so i find normal exercise does this fairly well... genetics would probably play apart in how much excerise and how much diet you need.

thatnks for the reply, I hope i havent damaged anything... could you go into further detail on the risks involved in this sort of exercise?

get some sort of pole... attach a string on the middle, put a weight on the string, and then "curl" the weight up and down the pole with your wrists.

what type of diet would you suggest or this? Mainly it seems to just make it harder to do the situp, it probably would block blood (and oxygen) as well... what type of results do "outstanding" mean? I find where the cutline is and then just tie it tightly around the stomach... can take a while to get it right...

Work on your chest muscels. After they get more developed it will require less effort for crunches and the feeling will disapear.

I probably wouldnt worry much about it. Being a drummer you get to know the feeling when you first start to play. After a while it goes away and you improve as a result. Your probably just doing activities that stress that area of the leg... if you continue what you are doing it is my best guess that your body will adapt.

a month ago i could pull 200 situps in a row. Then i started doing situps every secound day. I then formed (what i think is) a new way of doing situps. I tied a rope fairly tight across my stomach where one of the "cutlines" was and then did the situps. I noticed this was quite a bit harder, especially for "sideways situps" In any case the results have been amazing to say the least. I now can do 1000 situps in a row and have a large visible "six pack". My dad is concerned about how healthy my rope treatment is and is concerned that i could damage internal organs. does anyone know if these kinds of situps are safe? or how they can be made safe? any response would be appreciated.

Its a good idea to develope strong anything. Grip and wrist may not help quite as much in MA as it would in say wrestling though.

Funny i've never thought of sidekicks on "hard on the knees" maybe its just me.

dont forget to keep a tight pinky

What would be a good percentage of both to have? Which fibers are better at what?

Ok, thanks guys.
