I'm working on my new nick hahaha I was thinking.... explosive bunny or naplam tick.

Eyes open is a very importent part of this trade. Boxers uses the spashing of water to train their eyes open during fights. so go get a bucket and fill it up with water and just do mini chops on the water surface with both hands. Let the water spashes towards eyes why your face is close to it. Keep eyes open for as long as possible and of course rest when you get tired. As long as the eyes are open and can see clearly, focus, you'll natrualy become more alerted. As long as you can see yourself blocking the attack in your mind, normaly you will block it. Of course practice you're blocks whenever you can. It has to be a natural thing.

If both boxing and Wung chun guys are equally leveled in their style. Wung chun will have much better chance if it's extremly up close with the boxers rhythm disconnected. The strike must be bad enough to take the boxer out with one hit. Boxer will have much better chance if he gets more room to move around and more time for him to blow his punches from outside of Wung chun frontal distance. Wung chun has even a more difficult time taking on a kick boxing guy. Mui tai the style itself has amazing distance control. Wung chun's foot work will not be able to keep up with the kick boxing guy's movement. When up close the kick boxing guy is even more inner line than normal Wung chun sets. Mui tai's knees and elbows are really tough to slap away and the power behind it is using unstubborn power and trying to block it is extremely stressful if that person is not use things comming up from below waistlines.

Yea I agree with the above. I think the blackbelt bud was just helping you get use to you're punches and kicks. Personally I learn better when I know why I have to do certain things certain ways and how it really works. It'll help you train better when you're just single person training doing your 200 kicks and 500punches You'll also excel faster when you spar with guys that you know for sure are going to beat you. Now and then new things takes some time to develop, but then again don't do anything you're not comfortable with.

Personally the title martial artist doesn't mean alot to it. It'll only bring arrogance on to a user. Yea sure it can also work as a reminder of what you're really suppose use it and when. Martial artist is just like the title cop. So you got good cop and bad cop. So you got evil wicked monk and the honorable righteous monk. After all, yes as long as you want to be consider as a martial artist then you are. Maybe not a very strong one, but thats not really a problem (with 8 hours of training everyday and set teh goal as entering the cage fight and getting the free style fighting license in 3 months) just kidding about that last part

hahaha, it really depends on if you're comfortable enough. I use one style as the backbone as my whole system(my 1st and favoirt style Xin yi ) then I build other moves on top of it. So at the end old Xin yi really isn't Xin yi anymore, but you can still tell where I came from. There's habbits to everyone and it's only common sense that you do what you feel right.

OH COME ON! if it's 3 people chasing after you and you run and stop I don't think you'll still have the stamina to go 1v1 1v1 1v1 3 times! Well say if it does turn out the way you wanted; them lining up better shot on 1v1, it'll just gain different difficulties, such as what if you don't take out the 1st guy fast enough and the 2nd guy comes up and fight you while the 3 guy recovers from running and then they all end up on you. Back to square one with sore legs it'll work only if they're out of shape people, or they ate McDonalds for all 3 meals for the past 2 weeks. SUPER!

Tai chi is one of the 3 most famous styles wu dawn practice. All internal, but all internal in a different wasy. It's really hard to apply Tai chi in real combat, due to it's not practical enough just by the theory. Many times or almost all the time a person who learned Tai chi will also have the other 2 styles backing him/her up. If not the user of Tai chi may very well know another external style to complete a set of attack. And...let's use the word timing instead of speed yay!

haha that's funny I'm pretty new to Wing chun too! It's very different from the old styles I learned in Chinese kung fu. Since Wing chun is an extremly external type of style, many people I know who use that style often uses another system to develope chi. Honestly there's no biggy about chi. Chi basicly has to do with everything you do or think. Sleeping, eatting, talking, and breathing all has to do with it. I believe that chi travels through the bones and blood and it's everywhere on the body. I don't believe Wing chun itself has a system of developing chi. To be straight forward Wing chin focus on physical like most external style. Wing chun is known for it's witty hand tricks and both shoulders frontal creativity. Almost everything works well with everything when you apply them logicaly. So go check out some internal chi developing ways(Xin yi) is one of the most direct style you can power up your chi. Try it and cook that up with your Wing chun, Judo, and Kick Boxing. I'm sure at different time it'll all become useful one.

Yea I agree with the above. You have to know what you want from it first. Defferent people have different needs and develope it differently. Personaly Besides the mind and concetration, there's many other things that involve in this matter. Personaly I believe that chi runs in the blood and the bones. So the food you eat, the air you breath, the way you sleep, and the way you think all has big part on developing chi. Most people who think that only through certin ways we can gain the power of chi, yet that's not always true. We all have chi on us. It's just the matter of using it. Running is a way to gain chi since it requires rhythm and heavy breathing. Jump robes excersis is another way. You can also try the relax and firm up technique from thatyou can gain sunnden burst type of energery. If you can see yourself applying chi in your movements. Then you basicly develope the kind of result you need. Work on alittle bit of everything and see what works best for you. Like everyone said it'll take some time, but when you have good habbits everything starts changing even though you may not know but it'll grow in you.
