I am not off to work,,,just off today

Jules, I cant believe you're on here like me....we're sick, surley, we have something BETTER to do

I can beat that price, act now and we'll double the material.....but wait......we'll take off half of the price......and there is a free gift.......

Jules: Email me personally and tell me more about CQB

No, I like hanging on to em, the're "scentimental"

Have you ever had "your alarm clock go off" Do you know what I mean?

so its been told

The biggest question before answering: How many street fights have you seen and more importantly, been IN? Has anyone been in the Ghettos (we call em "Projects"-(short name for Housing Projects), hard streets Mexico, other such places, etc.?

Bad thing to do is list Martial Arts in this fashion. The topic is Self Defense Martial Arts not methods or other: Alertness Loss of Ego (no need to prove you da baddest mamajamma) Black belt in Run-Fu Lots of friends Shotgun Howbitzer A bomb Cruise missile Don't be there the trouble is at all 100 pals lined up behind you bullit proff vest bow and arrow an F-14 Tomcat AH-64 Apache D type "Longbow" helicopter Be ready Don't be in places you should not be Don't hang out with bad people Don't Drink Don't Use Durgs Don't insult strangers Don't cheat or you girlfriend Don't let your pride make you do dumb things LOL at yourself Be Respectful The art is ONLY as good as the Artist. I’ve seen many martial artists of many styles/systems go down. If you can’t take a very hard hit, then you are not going to be thoroughly well in self-defense.

Ive ben saying this for 2 decades

I had a student that wanted a pink belt

It is just another way to streamline the sport and flashy tactics and combine many martial art systems/methods

simple and effective

Have that down here in Louisiana

The best meaning "bloody"

You haven't studied that long and yet comment on Shaolin Kung Fu and other info?

UFC in not "Ultimate Fighting" They have rules. So anyone in UFC are limited

They are too stiff to get into

Did you do them with your feet elevated high on a chair or railing and with a sand sack placed on your upper back? Later phases were the above plus with a box of sand, then gravel.

Mind over matter.....it is just easier to say Chi/Ki... I have seen, been taught, and found Chi Kung or other Demos to be fake or staged. In certain demos, the body has to be fit-granted. Learning that I was able to get a commoner, with no training to do the same. As I seen each demo, I suggested to Chi demonstrators upon bringing in my own material. To which was always replied “NO”. Seems they were concerned with getting injured which was to prove by using Chi, they could not. Strange? As of earlier during this year, I was talking to members of the Magician's Guild that I am in. A lot of Chi demos are parlor tricks and simple physics. Of course I still keep researching Chi and look for people to maintain other opinions.

Good point

Shuai Jiao is an ancient Chinese wrestling system. Some scholars believe this is one of many systems that influenced Japanese JJ Seen many real fights JJ vs....half were lost. It is not the art....it is the artist

The over all purpose is what? What happens when you reach the ages 30's-40"s? I went through many "body" conditioning gongs, in age, the body feels the wear.....painfully.

go, then come back and tell us..... good journey

Yeah, there are many such "drean trips"....but then I close the lid on the glue
