  1. I've never really tried but i'd probably be able to do about the same as..................... little kicker, my biceps look like little peas.
  2. I have one problem sohan, well actually I have 2 problems. Firstly since going to the gym I gave me weights to my brother in law and secondly if I was to stand up with my arm in the air I would put a hole in the ceiling....... Other than that seems a good exercise. Although one thing our sensei always says is to be careful when you stand up as he hurt his knee getting up wrongly.
  3. You can go to the gym or http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/healthy_living/your_weight/bmiimperial_index.shtml not overly acturate says im overweight. Mine's 25.61
  4. My body recovers at different speeds depending on how much sleep i get. I thought it was all a myth but its actually very true. I normally do; Monday : Rest Tuesday : Gym Wednesday : Karate Thursday : Gym Friday : Rest Saturday : Gym Sunday : Cycling Although this week my girlfriend has had exams so i didn't go to the gym and have been up quite late with her. But today I can hardly move, my workout was the same and karate was not as hard as it has been. Enough about me, like everyone else has said, rest alot at the begining then your body will gradually get used to it and you can reduce the recovery time.
  5. I work in London so i can just come down on the train. It will only cost me an extra £5 to get there.
  6. I might go, went last year.
  7. I play ALOT of online games on my xbox 360, become friends with a few guys that I have known for years. At the moment im playing Call Of Duty 3, PGR and the rainbow six:Vegas Demo.
  8. I haven't had that problem for a long time now, i get up at 5am every morning to go to work so when my head hits the pillow thats it. Although I used to do the hoovering when I couldn't sleep, saved me a job at the weekend.
  9. She'd be nice to have at a party, couldn't watch all of it but like Kez said more like dance. Did a related search and found this its chloe again but with a bit more grunt.
  10. Your the weight i want to be. Everyone is correct, there is not one easy way to loose weight but it comes down to exercise and diet. As well as what you eat when you eat is important. Not an expert but make sure you have breaskfast it starts you metabolism(sp?) also try to have your calorie intake in 4 or 5 meals not just 3 it means that your body can process the calories and fat etc over a period of time instead of have large calorie intake. Also try having your last meal (dinner or supper whatever you call it) as early as possible and don't eat after that.
  11. Although you need to be careful. http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB116441076273232312-IHR8Xf3YEG61QlW0e7hA_kHAA8w_20061224.html?mod=tff_main_tff_top
  12. I used to love that game. Hopefully you should be able to download it. Who needs call of duty 3 or gears of wars we've got duck hunt.

    eBay

    I'm not a great fan of ebay. Never used it heard to many horror stories about it.
  14. I thought that Shotokan meant 'house of pine waves.' Hmm. That is odd. I just read that yesterday and I thought it was interesting so I posted. Turns out, my book a different interpretation. Bah! I read that somewhere as well Syphax. Did you know that Chuck Norris doesn't bowl strikes, he just knocks down one pin and the other nine faint. sorry wanted to reply to Syphax but didn't have a fact.

    Patrick I have only seen the first season but thought that was brilliant. Pal. It's about the unluckiest guy in the world ever, quick lowdown. His names Jack and he works for some agency (can't remember the name). The season is 24 hours in his life, each episode being an hour each). Its very clever and very addictive.
  16. Hi Lady, I get the exact pain your talking about. I have been doing the hyperextensions that tiger has been talking about and find that the pain is getting less.
  17. I've got a 360 and used to spend hours and hours on it although now my weight training has taken the time away from that. The wii looks good fun, we should start a thread about the things you could say. I want to play with my wii. Hi mate, fancy coming over and playing on my wii. Friend 1:- What did you do over the weekend. Friend 2:- Spent the time playing with my wii. My wii's doesn't work properly. The list does go on...... I'll probably wait until the January sales before I get one.
  18. Hi mate, the hand techniques where great, it looks like our bassai dai but with a few slightly different moves. One think I would comment on is there where no slow moves, in our kata we do some moves slowly to show the technique. Can't comment to much I still have problems remembering the moves.
  19. Welcome Kunckle, great points although in the UK all those things you said about putting in the purse are i think banned.
  20. Happy thanksgiving guys and gals. We can all give thanks (even us over the pond) for KF.
  21. Hi Patrick Unfortunately living in the UK i've still not got my hands on one. However the pre-orders for Amazon UK sold out in 7 minutes (which is pretty fast). I can't wait to give it a whirl and see what its like. There are lots of people babbling on that its not as powerful but whats more fun, waving your arms around like a fool with your mates or sitting with a pad in your hand. Its also SO much cheaper. Watch this trailer http://media.play.com/trailers/games/redsteel/ i know its a bit exagerated but I can so imagine doing this.
  22. Without actually knowing the exact grip its pretty hard to work out how to break it. Normally a quick kick as a weakener and then punch down towards the floor should break it. You can also tilt your hand upwards and then push the hand out as the weakest part of a grab is the thumb.
  23. I used to love Sammo, and the out-takes at the end.
  24. it keeps giving me 1 second penalty. You are waiting till it goes yellow before clicking aren't you! First go was .24
  25. "the bigger they are, the harder they fall" you also have to watch out because the bigger they are the harder they hit..... Anyway back to it. I was sparring yesterday and in the junior section it was 1 girl and about 8 lads and she won. Ok there isn't a great deal of difference but it comes down to skill, even guys who have more skill can beat bigger guys (trust me I came 4th on Sunday and I'm huge).
