telsun Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 chh I have trained with nigiri game (is that the right spelling?) but do not train with them extensively. I find them kinda boring!I probably find them boring due to a lack of understanding. I keep asking God what I'm for and he tells me........."gee I'm not sure!"

RedDragon Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Telsun... no problem on the misunderstanding... I totally understand that the "Brain Fart" can be a greatly devestating thing AdamTraditional Japanese Goju Ryu KarateMike Lasci's Northern Martial Arts CentreMy lifestyle determines my deathstyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 We do something similar. We use a full sized bo. We hold it at the very end and raise and lower it without bending the elbow. We don't hold it far away from our bodies. Holding anything heavy at arms length will injure your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirves Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 How come there's no option for "have heard of them, but don't use them"? I find this poll quite badly designed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telsun Posted July 23, 2003 Author Share Posted July 23, 2003 How come there's no option for "have heard of them, but don't use them"? I find this poll quite badly designed...A valid point. I would put it in but cannot see how to edit a poll. Maybe a mod could help. Badly designed? Well I admit I gave it very little thought. However despite the question/polls downfalls please do not be discouraged from simply stating your opinion. I keep asking God what I'm for and he tells me........."gee I'm not sure!"

Kirves Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 I think there's an edit option somewhere when you look at the poll thread (it's only visible to the person who started the poll). Okay, my take: I have seen chishi in a local Goju-ryu dojo as they are regularly used in Okinawan Goju-ryu. But I have not used them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorin Ryuu Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Lol. Chiishi or chikaraishi is what I knew these as. At first, I was very confused... Chikara=power ishi=stone Martial Arts Blog:http://bujutsublogger.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
