While I agree it could be good for you, check with your doctor to see if there are limitations to what your body can handle due to your CP. Wouldn't want to push yourself to the point of injury doing basic techniques because your body simply can't handle it. I wish you the best in your quest. Pilsung!

Thanks craknek! That explains why I suck at aerobics but can kick a guys spine out through his back. Gonna have to get a heavy bag again. Work on that explosiveness. Great article.

I agree with charity, but not when charity is abused. Countries around the world seem to think they are entitled to the US handout. It shouldn't be that way. The US should have strings attached to the money, not food, we give to other countries, because too often those countries use that money for things that are not beneficial to the people who need it most. JMO:)

Washington was an honorary Freemason.

I tend to focus on my current form. Sometimes to the detriment of other forms I know.

I am guessing he is not high enough rank to have a black gi. Do they have that restriction at your dojo?

17 huh? That explains it. For a second dan, you really seem not to get it. I wouldn't pass your sorry butt until you learned how to write a correct paragraph or show some respect for others. I hope you are more teachable than you seem here.

TKD with some rule changes could be very exciting. The poll dosn't work BTW. I vote TKD.

Grammar always matters Jae Hoon. You are showing your disrespect for the entire art of TKD with your lame attempt at making a point. If you happen to pull it off, which is a BIG if, it will be a sad day for all of TKD. Why a BIG if, you say? Because the world is a BIG place for such a small minded fish thinking to win a triple crown in anything. Sad day indeed...

This is what they look like before...http://skins.hotbar.com/skins/mailskins/em/033102/033102bigscream_1_prv.gif AHHHHHHH!!!! This is what they look like when it doesn't work...http://skins.hotbar.com/skins/mailskins/em/080402/080402help_prv.gif

Try one of the new oxygen cleaners on the market. Scrub it with an old toothbrush. Then wash regularly. STAY AWAY FROM BLEACH! Although it does tend to get stains out, it also weakens the fabric of your Gi, causing premature wearing out in places. Pilsung!

Have you seen the track record of the UN? The Commission on Human Rights is a prime example of how big a joke the UN is. They let some of the biggest violators in human rights sit as members on this commission. Check it out here: http://www.unhchr.ch/html/menu2/2/chrmem.htm#2002 The UN also wants the USA to ratify three treaties that would undermine everything America stands for. All in the name of world peace. Those treaties are, The Kyoto Protocol (which would kill the US economy all for the sake of some three-toed, spotted frog owl), Convention on the Rights of the Child (which would take away all parental rights an adult has for their child except the ones that hold them responsible for when their child does something soceity doesn't like), and CEDAW(Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women)(which would make it an act of violence for a man to not do exactly what his wife tells him to do, like fold the laundry).

Spoken like a true socialist LeaF. The aid that is given now is unappreciated. Why should it continue? I don't know too many pet owners that keep a pet that continues to bite his hand when he feeds him. Most people have those pets put to sleep or take them to the pound, where they are put to sleep. I, as an American, am tired of countries biting the hand that feeds them. But that's just me.

Well, no one's perfect Kensai. @Superleeds - In My Opinion (IMO)

He wants to open Alaska for oil, unknown, not Iraq. Europe, for the most part has forgotten who saves their a$$ time and again because the majority would just bend over and take it up the wazoo if they had their way. Should America have let Hitler continue to do what he was doing in the 40's? If we had, this world would be a hell of a lot different. You think we like having to be the playground cop for the spineless politicians in Europe? We don't. I say we cut off all economic help that the rest of the world gets from the great satan America and see how fast famine, disease, poverty, and war takes over the rest of the world before we have to clean it up again. I have to say, I am ashamed of my last name.

We said MA magazines not pro wrestling or muscle mags Try TKD Times or Black Belt Magazine.

Sasha Mitchell starred as the VanDamme character's younger brother in Kickboxer 2 and I believe 3 as well. Long live cheesey MA flicks.

Some people, like Chuck Norris, use a special pair of jeans that have a stretchable gussett (diamond shaped piece of fabric) in the crotch of the jean. This fabric stretches for the kick causing less bind-up.

Man did I suck! Glad I wasn't the only one with a goose egg!

2 -3 times a week should be sufficient. You don't want to alienate your wife. She is more important than TKD. This will also give your instructor a break. Every night would be okay if you didn't have a life. Take time to rest yourself as well. If you don't, you might start to suffer from burnout. Pilsung!

Deb, If you need help with this process, let me know. I can help you find the codecs and such. I do this kind of thing all the time.

Wish I could get some BJJ training to help round out my TKD skills more. Have fun.

Just checked your profile. TKD? You my friend are a dog! Does the KM stand for Krav Maga? Hope I got that right.

What do you train in? It better not be Tai Chi.

Have we reached an agreement? Now can we discuss something else? This horse is dead. Thanks for the respectful debate TJS.
