SBN Doug Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Not only the guy that fights a lot, you also have those that are just natually good fighters. Just like a naturally good hitter in baseball. Kuk Sool Won - 4th danEvil triumphs when good men do nothing.
Ripper Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 First off, let me say i am not keen with the derogatory manner of your posts. Moving on... I really didn't know I was doing that. I do know that I'm not always very subtle in my posts but that's probably partly due to my limited knowledge of the english language and my laziness. I usually try to say things in as few words as possible. And sometimes my posts are not read the way I meant them. Not to say this is the fault of the one that's reading but to say that I didn't write them clear enough. It is never my intention to insult anyone. I only attack people's arguments, never the people who make them. If I do, you may hit me. you essentially said, "it sounds much to complicated and ellaborate" as a basis for argument as to why you don't believe. This is just because I'm a big fan of the KISS-principle. I like to keep things simple. The way you explained it.........no I rephrase that; the way I read it, it sounded too complicated to do that in an actual fight when the pressure is high. I just didn't think I would be able to do that in an actual fight (but that could be because of my own limitations offcourse!). There are some things that are just too hard to explain with words. They must be practiced and pointed out. You know this. Yet when you asked for an explanation and i made a reasonable effort to provide one, despite the fact i didn't need to, i received for my troubles a backhanded response. That wasn't my intention. This is one of the disadvantages of this type of communication. Maybe if you showed me this in a dojo I immediately would have said; "Ah, that's what you mean!" or "I didn't know this was possible."Anyway, here's something for you to work with that is along the same lines and is one of the training tricks. Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try. Now, please... chill with the attitude. ?? René
White Warlock Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 Hehe, i should have taken into account you were working with English as a second language. My bad. I do know how things don't quite come out clear, or even courteous, when i try and speak a language other than my primary.The way you explained it.........no I rephrase that; the way I read it, it sounded too complicated to do that in an actual fight when the pressure is high.Actually, my explanation was too complicated. Should have corrected my explanation as soon as i found myself tossing in the "disclaimer" of my explanation being too complicated. Not sure if it would been made more clear but, ah well.I just didn't think I would be able to do that in an actual fight (but that could be because of my own limitations offcourse!). In truth, it's something that can easily be converted to muscle memory, so you wouldn't even need to think about it.

tommarker Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Unless we are getting ready for a tournament, we fight with pads, but it is free-for-all with multiple attackers and ground fighting/submission fighting - definately not for sissies. SISSY, SISSY!!!! SKIRT WEARING SISSY!!!! I'm being a bit tongue-in-cheek. Really Just remember, the way all of us fight is fairly sissy-like compared to the way a violent felon receives his training... I'm no longer posting here. Adios.
