Sorynn Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 A) About 10 years ago. I defended myself against an attack and after three punches, I had to pay the person's medical expenses Striking someone can be expensive even if you are defending yourself. B) about 2 weeks ago.

Tal Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Last time I hit something as hard & fast as I could was several hours ago (I train with a bag everyday). Last time I hit someone as hard & fast as I could was over two years ago. shotokan karate nidanjujitsu shodankendo shodan
The Saint Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 I hit the bag as hard and fast as I can most of the time, it gets all the agression out.... "Pain is the best instructor, but no one wants to go to his class." Choi, Hong Hi ITF Founder
blitzcraig Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 I wanted to punch a whole in my g/f's wall last night when she broke up with me but I didnt. 1) I cant remember the last time I puched something as hard as I can. 2) A few days back I was punching holes in cardboard boxes at work. That takes a fast punch. #1"The road to tae kwan leep is an endless road leading into the herizon, you must fully understand its ways". #2"but i wanna wax the walls with people now" #1"come ed gruberman, your first lesson is here.....boot to the head" #2"ouch, you kicked me in the head", #1"you learn quickly ed gruberman"
ramymensa Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 Back in high school, i got really upset for not being able to finish a project or something like that. Got nervous and felt the urge to hit something. It was the wall. I hit with all my power. All my anger vanished because of the pain. Oh, God, it hurt. Still no broken bones. Just a very very black fist The quickest punches I did in an exercise with a candle. Try to "kill" the light, without touching it, just by means of the air flow produced by the punch. Nice exercise World Shotokan Karate
blitzcraig Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Yea, i've been wanting to try the candle exercise for awhile. You think its worth doing? Also i've been wanting to get fast enough to be able to stick my finger in a cardboard box but am afraid of a finger stub. #1"The road to tae kwan leep is an endless road leading into the herizon, you must fully understand its ways". #2"but i wanna wax the walls with people now" #1"come ed gruberman, your first lesson is here.....boot to the head" #2"ouch, you kicked me in the head", #1"you learn quickly ed gruberman"
ramymensa Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 It's a good exercise. It makes you punch real fast (otherwise you wouldn't produce the airflow necesary to blow the candle). My sensei told me to try it. It was harder at first, cause I didn't have the speed, but in 2-3 minutes I realised what was wrong and blew the candle. World Shotokan Karate

DokterVet Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 I hit the bag as hard and fast as I can at least once a week. There's one friend I spar with that I will hit with punches and front kicks as hard and fast as I can. I pull my roundhouses a bit though. I roundhoused someone in the thigh last year because he wouldn't stop bugging me when I was working on a project. We went outside and I kicked him as hard as I could with my shin. He said his leg went numb and he didn't bug me anymore. 22 years oldShootwrestlingFormerly Wado-Kai Karate
