I dont think people in shaolin temples have grading systems. as when I was taking wushu, I was learning from some guy who lived in a shaolin temple from when he was very little till about 20. He's now 60 and says the belt system disrespects wushu because you should be there to learn, not to get belts. I dont nessicarially agree, but this guy is legit, he had monks ome and present him with persents adn everything when they were doing a tour of canada, His name is Mr.Tan. Search wushu under google and Im sure you can find his site somewhere.

If I was sparring , winning adn the guy I was sparring against was smiling, Id think he still had something uphis sleeve.

It seems that a lot of people here have or have had jobs as bouncers, and advice in getting one?

No she was wonderful too me, and part of the reason she elft was because I was too worried about her I guess. She wants to go out and expirience college. I took great care of her, I havnt even said all of the stuff I did for her, and I never did ti out of pity. I figured if the roles were reversed she'd do teh same, adn thats what love is. Now Im bloody dying, I miss her so much and I love her, and I worry about her still. She told me she thinks we do need and go do our own things for a bit, adn that when we get back together things will be a lot better. Then she got mad when I said if, as she sees it happening for sure. But after all of this was said she has been distant and stuff, so maybe shes trying to rush through it, but I know even if shes right I still need someone to talk to and someone to love. Blah do you think she's playing games with me? Im not the type of guy to be manipulated, I wear my heart on my sleeve, and I know it. She treated me very well, and she seems to miss me a bunch. So just lemme know

Okay i am big, and i have lost thuis weight before, so I decided to lose it again. LAst timeI was on this atkins diet I lost 70 pounds, adn after I quit I gained most of it back. But I wasnt working out during it and a lot of the weight lost was muscle mass. So I decided that with my jun jitsu, im going to start atkins again. Im also going to be adding 30 mins of cardio a day, and some minor weight excercises. Im trying to build up my abdominal muscles adn my pectorals. My arms and legs are pretty big, but the chest I want to work on. When I go to Ju Jitsu we do these extreme situps/pushups with a partner, and Go for a couple minutres, so my ab workout is pretty intense( its three times a week) But what are some excercises for the pecs that have fairly quick results.

Yeh do the position for as long as you can bare it. then relax and strech out for a little bit, When I started ju jitsu, I was aching all the time I even made a post about it. Now Im usually okay. ( lol except when my sensi fell ontop of me after a move, shoulder to the solar plex)

Well we go to different schools in teh same city, and I have a car so it really makes no difference about the distance. She also has arthritous and lupus, so shes sicka lot and during my time with her I took care of her a lot. ( a lot of carrying involved) this is relevant because she trys to go out and do the colege thing, but then she gets really sick. Like for example she went once, slept the next day, and couldnt really walk the following day. But anyway, she was my world. I gave up so much for her. Now I just want her back, even if I dont see her everyday, I want to see her.I know I love her, because not only did I feel that connection, Every hug ( which I would argue is the most intimate thing you can do) she gave me for 3 years, I tingeled. 3 years. Blah.

Hey I know Im newer to the forums, but a lot of smart things have been said here adn you all have helped me out before. My girlfriend of three years left me about 2 weeks ago, and Ive gone through the stages of grief and everything; but thats not really the issue. SHe left me not because of anything I did or didnt do, I treated her right, she just said that she needed to go explore the new college enviroment. I told her she can go and have my blessing and that no bridges were burnt, she told me she still loves me and always will. So A little time went by and we didnt talk ( I guess a little is relative, but about a week) and we talked again, saw eachother and the chemistry was still there. She says she wants me to be her *buddy, and that she sees us getting back together. I miss her with every fibre in my body, and we had a future planned together. So Im stuck here, on one hand it would be very easy to just not talk to her and move on with my life. On the other we had something great, and now the temptation to get back with her is dangling ther infront of em. Now we have talked and we both said were remaining loyal to one another and everything, but I see this as dumb as I think we should either be together or not. So wahtever advice you can give, thanx

Strech, if your new to it and your muscles arnt used to the movements and motions, youll need to streach more.

Sounds like it could be interesting silverboym62@hotmail.com Feel free to add me

Why shouldnt you drink in your teens. It is legal, depending on where you live, and if done responsibly it makes no difference what so ever

okay; What I mean is when were praticing throws, I am supposidly not letting the thrower do it easily enough, Im sort of fighting the throw, or hold. Which I dont see as A bad thing, but I also am not erally controlling it.

My sensi told me that I resist the stuff too much; yet I dont feel like im resisting at all. Is there any way to cut back on resistance?

But come on, jet li did it.

Wee commericals Im sorry you cant attend geico, but on teh good side, i saved money on car insurence

Well if a tree saw you, you never know what it wood do...

And you also have my condolences. Sorry for not saying it sooner

After class my sensi's ask us to bring up any questions to them, adn those who want to go can go. I asked a question, then one would answer and the other would try to show him up. There only 2 of em, but this lasted for 30 minutes before one just let the other have the lat word.

....Why?

I was sparring with a little guy the other day here, and my sensi told him to shoot for my legs and chop me down like a tree. So work youyr way up I guess

I am going to add a few movies that I thought of rcently, and a few others I just saw for the first time Highlander Monty python and the life of Brian Cradle to the grave. ( yay quote to socialiams )
