As Thai said.....and no disrespect intended, but at 16, it is highly unlikely that you are fully matured. Stay away from the heavy weights, or youll pay for it in the future......Stay with a full body circuit training routine....low weight, and high reps...about 15-20. Try to stick to more multi joint movements, like squats.....stay away from the free weights, and use the machines...they give you a guided plane of motion which is safer, and more effective than freeweights, since they help with keeping proper form when you begin to fatigue.

Hojo Undo simply means "supplemental excercises"

Not another one of these threads........sighs.....

Good post Jem.....and Thai....like MM said...where ?

Id back you up....but more importantly...Id teach you how to fight your own battles....and win.

My profile should be listed....check it out.

Certainly, they would spar with everyone white-black....I would expect that they would conduct themselves in a manner befitting a BB when up against the lower ranks though.

Ive been doing bar/niteclub security for 19 years, and bodyguard work for 10. My training has helped immensely

Doesnt he teach that too ????? LOL

You may be on to something JKD......hmmmmmm.

WW......is that all ????.....LOL

DM......Its really beginning to bother me that weve all been so forthcoming with explaining our backgrounds....and he refuses to.....some of his posts are totally off the wall......Im just curious to know what his knowledge base is.....again....not to bash him.....I just wanna know wheres he's "coming from"

I agree MM.....however...since they have trained before...they already understand how to "learn martial arts" so to speak....I would only expect a faster progression through the ranks, meaning...I would expect them to "get" new techniques a little faster than someone with a clean slate.

yuk yuk yuk.....lol

I just put up a new post entitled "Gilbert" in EVERY CATAGORY....... The question I ask is very simple..... "Whats your background, Gilbert" ????? Being that its in every catagory....he has no excuse that he missed the post entitled with his own name. So...... WHATS YOUR BACKGROUND GILBERT ??????

I love knives and edged weapons in general

For stick fighting, you may also want to look up the "Dog Brothers"....I think thats there name

.......anxiously awaiting Gilbert's next fascinating post ....... :roll:

Y'all have heard me say it before....but Ill say it again......"Belt hold up pants....get on mat and train".......

LOL.......I was trained to fight against Fords.......

Roger that !!! Thats a big 10-4 good buddy !

When I was your age....I used to have to walk to the dojo 4 miles....in 4 feet of snow.....uphill.....both ways....lol...... Yeah MM......mats.in the dojo.....but my master was a little "eccentric" as well......we had "parking lot training" as well.

LOL......me too.....and plastered to the mat a few times as well

He speaks as if he is talking to us from "on high".....like hes some kind of Grandmaster holding the keys to the secrets of the arts......I think hes a joke.

I dont know what he is......but the wording of some of his posts, along with the content, is off the wall.
