Well, there was this one time, last training day before Christmas. We're all lying down on the hard, wooden floor preparing to do crunches. Then our Sensei calls out to one of our green belts "How many should we do?" and he replies "Eight hundred." Hey, and belar, that's kyokushin for you.

I feel like this is an out of body thing a ma jig, I saw them, but I just couldn't count!

Scotch. I love scotch, scotchy scotch scotch.

Would it be kyobukan? Is that evan a style or just a name?

The thing with playing Metallica (or whatever) is that some one in the room probably hates that music and it gives them a headache. The only type of music that wouldn't directly give them a headache would be so bland that it wouldn't be worth having on. If you want music go and do an aerobics class at the gym, as well as going to a MA class as well.

It's not a bumper sticker, but its something you can attach to your door so it looks like someone's hand has been caught in the door and there are just four fingers poking out.

As someone who commutes only one hour a day, that drive is not going to increase your drive to attend training. Go with kyokushin, I swear that's not a biased answer.

If I had the time (and physical ability!) I would take my Sensei's advice and train judo/boxing/kyokushin. I think I would take boxing as my second choice and then judo as my third, judo scares me a little bit. I heard it takes 10-15 years to get your blackbelt.

We have some more Kung Fu based kata and you can really notice the difference in karate, it is far more fluid. This is just my opinion now, but it also seems much quicker and uses different hand positions to strike. Not just lots of basic punches.

It makes me laugh. It is both cheesy and dumb. No offense meant to original poster, unless you created it!

I have many questions about ninjas: What country did they originate from? Why (what need was there)? When? Do schools "teach" you how to become a ninja? Did they really have throwing stars?

Sick stuff! Just get .8 grams of protein per kg of weight per day. Egg whites are very good for you.

This actually reminds me of something... I was partnered up with my Sensei and we were doing combinations. And I was a little sheepish about actually punching him, but then I did start doing it. And I'm just a little white belt, so I don't have much control and so he tensed up his stomache muscles just in case a punch when awry. So the first time I punched him it was like "Holy crap, wall of muscle!" Seriously, like a freakin wall.

I difffer, perfect practice makes perfect as my sensei says.

How is Tang Soo Do different than other martial arts?

What would be the definition of shadow boxing?

Frickin awesome dojo.

Who is he? What kind of "street cred" does he have? Seeing as no one else has posted he's either unknown or evil.

If you're up against an insane person hell bent on trying to kill you, self defense applies. If it is me or another person, then I will do all I can to defend myself and that includes deadly force. Like people have said, if you can get the dog to stop attacking you without killing it by defending yourself, then that is okay. But if that dog will not stop trying to kill you then you must use deadly force because at that point it is either you dead or the dog. And really, although nobody likes to see dogs dead, a dead person would be worse.

Bruce Lee! Jackie Chan is a nobody compared to him. Jackie Chan is old now too, he's only getting more feeble and he probably won't make as many movies now. He's over 50, they don't want that in Hollywood! So then he won't has as long of a film rep. as Bruce Lee.

Okay, now when you say "disabled peron" you have to distinguish between mentally or phyiscally disabled. And what kind or phyisical or mental disability they have.

Senna from a character in a book, and trem evolving from tremfower a name I gave to myself... 5 years ago. Maybe 6...

Jazz, some indie, some newer punk, some older punk, classical music and I always have a little room for opera in my heart.

If you want to see a good movie, see Garden State!

I am just a white belt, but I heard six or seven years if you are a good student.
