yeah using your bodyweight as resistance instead of weights

hey ive been told to do bodyweight excercise to get a more defined look than a bulky 1 but does ne1 know if it actually works or are they to little of an exercise

thanx for all the info i think im gonna try the 2 techniques mentioned 1 kicking through the target not at it 2 try to use something to toughen up my shins and i think someone asked what is the purpose of my style well it is to do exactly this use fast hard techniques to overcome an opponent its a hard/soft style juist look it up thanx for the help

ive been doing tang sso do for nearly 2 years and belive me its a good form of self defense i work as glass colllector in a rough town and when things get bad and the bouncers are trying to get to the trouble sorted i trust that if anything happens i can defend myself and i have done in the past a good self defense grip we were taught a lepel grab(t shirt in my case) but it worked

i know some people will tell you that they want hard , fast kicks same here but i wanted to know what can i practice on to get to the hard hitting stage i was thinking of a peice of wood hard like bone and practice on that (while its padded of course) sort of like a makiwara but kick it hard until it breaks with every kick any opinions or objections usefu thnx

hey ive just started a weight-free workout i thought id do 3 sets of 15 reps but when it camw to chinups i could only do 1 set so i was thinking to ensure my body gets a good equal workout should i train to failure on each excercise advive needed plz thnx

hey ive just decided to use my own body weight for a resistance program since 1 i can do my training anywhere and 2 i can change it freely but i was wondering would i get the strength desired from this i know i wont look like van damme from just using my body but i dont wanna bulk anyway just tone up thnx

hey ive been doing tang soo do for a year now and i was thinking for fun i want tyo learn some ma tricks so i was wondering do u guys ave any advice or threads for me thanx

hey i sudy tang soo do and my instructer emphasise keeping a minimum target by keeping in a side stance and keeping your arm guarding so when i heard about the theroy i thought it was what i needed so i was wondering if there areany books available to help understand and use this theory any advice useful thanx

yeah thats where the idea came from but i tied it to a fence insted of dangling it

hey i just wanted an opinion on my home made dummie ive just tied 2 car tyres one on top of the other to a fence for head and lower shots its good for kicking any kicks really but i wanted an opinion to see if theres any risk at all any comment is a help

i sufferd a kick to the temple of my head the other day and i cant really act right i went hospital and they said come back if the pain gets worse for a catscan bt im one of these ppl where if i go ppl will call me a hyprocondriac cos they ignore the pain but mines getting worse and after 3 days i thought it would have been gon what should i do should i go or is this a normal injury in martial arts

thanx alot u are a saint i know ive posted a few and sound like a whiny b***h but i need advice for various things

ive lost a stone and im happy but for some reason ive stopped losing weight and im along way to go. ive got a slim build but ive got a belly and flab here and there so wanted to lose it and tone my muscle any advice on what to eat or how much and how much training to do e.g since i work at my martial art school helping out i train 6 days a week 1 of them is a kickboxing lesson which is a real workout any advice useful

ok i put a post befroe saying about can you consume alcohol while training and my master says that a glass a day of red wine is healthy and it stops you binge drinking on the weekend hes not much of a drinker but his friend consumes around 4 to 8 glasses of red wine a week and he never binges or gets drunk cos hes in a habit of having it through the week. so heres the question is this a good habit for a moderate drinker doing martial arts or not
