Yellow Belt

Yellow Belt (2/10)

  1. Well, many people say that it's harder to gain weight than to loose it... So I wouldn't be too sure about what you just said. I don't have any problems gaining weight!! Well, I don't have any problems sticking at my current weight either. But ok, you get my point.

  3. Well, maybe it's not an average question... But I want to gain some weight, although I'm never hungry. And when I AM hungry I'm filled in no time!! - So with other words: for me it's almost impossible to gain weight. Now I'd like to get some info on possible food-supplements? * Is there any (it has to be on a natural base, not bad for the body) stuff on the market that increases your apetite? Thanks... --> PS: It's easy to say "eat some more"... But if you're not hungry, you're not in the mood to eat.
  4. Well, I always put a new belt in a tube of cold water (so it will not shrink and the colour will remain)... Than leave it in the cold water for 1 night. If it still stays too stiff, repeat it...
  5. https://www.elasticsteel.com I just bought the book and read it yesterday. It realy looks promising, as it contains many interesting details that many other books don't describe. - My question is: Do any of you have any experience with Elastic Steel? And is it realy that good as it says it is? (I have a pretty good feeling after reading the book, many new details written down realy make sence)
  6. Put some deodorant on them??
  7. Muay Thai... Well, I'd say: best join Buakaw's league .
  8. I have an Adidas "Judo-line" Uniform for sale (worn only a few times). It has extra stiches so it's pretty strong (I used it for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and it works fine). Size: 180 cm
  9. Well, for Forms I recommend soemthing with a good beat in it... (Trance, Techno, maybe some good rock, also Soundtracks from a big movie get alot of attention from the audience)
  10. Well, there is some kicking/punching involved, but the focus lies on the groundwork (specially with BJJ, that I did). I think it's about 80%-20%
  11. Guys, I found a few good books (IMO), but I don't know what to go for. - My main goal is to get the maximum out of my stretching-routine, in order to get more flexibility. After I get the desired level of flexibility, I also want to focus a bit on getting a bit more muscular. These are the products that got my attention: 1) http://www.elasticsteel.com/products.html - I'm interested in getting all 3 books. OR 2) http://www.amazon.com/Stretching-20th-Anniversary-Bob-Anderson/dp/0936070226/sr=8-1/qid=1157481966/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-1698801-1753545?ie=UTF8&s=books Now, what would you guys recommend me?
  12. I can almost do sidesplits, but for some reason I have no clue what kind of exercises to do... in order to learn the frontsplits. Can some1 give me any advice please?
  13. Maybe a strange question to you guys, but I have a question. Last week I've started to think and came up with the idea of starting my stretching routine by having a few glasses of alcohol first. This idea came to my mind, because (if I understand correctly) it's a well-known fact that your muscles become more supple after using alcohol.. - Well, I'm trying this since a few days now, and indeed I'm starting to realise that I have a higher pain-barriere (after drinking some glasses of alcohol), resulting in higher levels of stretching-performance... limits which I normally can't reach. Now my question is... what kind of influence does this have on my "overall performance", keeping in mind that (starting Friday next week) I will continue to stretch without alcohol again? Will I have an advantage because of the fact that I DID use alcohol this week (and my limit was higher because of this)?? Are there any people around here who have any experience with the use of alcohol, prior to starting their stretching routine? Yes, I know... it's not an average question.
