so, you think you want to be a blogger?
there's nothing cool about blogging... let me show you why!
first of all, if you start blogging about e-mails you receive... then your friends might spite you. Other than that, you might have to try to create real content... which also sucks.
Thusly,
inre: match 3,
- booyah kanani, jack him in tha' face!
- you also might appreciate such epic cinema as this:
- inre match 5, suggestions per your request...
- when I fought w/ my dad he always told me to use the cat/back stance because of his height advantage.
- forward foot moves in towards opponent, as you increasingly lean back on your rear leg
- slowly creep forward, while leaning backwards bit-by-bit,
- as your body moves forward, your opponent doesn't notice as much of a change, because you're torso is leaning away.
- then lunge forward for strikes
I can imagine this has limited utility in a legit fight... it's a blog, what do you expect.
If that wasn't enough showboating... i don't know what is
I strongly recommend this video... beyond the flashback inducing audio, there is a beautiful, yet indescribably brutality:

Dude, Iron Mike’s speed and power are totally inspirational. I watch that and think, “I bet I could hit harder than I do.”

agreed,
in addition to power though, he’s all about jooking fools. e.g. telegraph the hook, connect with the knee… what a painful jooking.

Also, I am fascinated to see cat stance in action. I personally tend to lean into my opponent a little to be ready for tackle/takedown attempts, and to resist getting knocked back by strikes.
I would imagine cat stance is more centered around evasion, maybe?

I think cat stance is more about developing strength & balance for back-stance. back-stance is about footwork, most certainly.
Good footwork in back-stance gives you the fast side-to-side action needed for evasion, plus the added disorientation from no head-bob (when properly applied)

Hey there!! Hahaha It’s Mayra…the girl from the Coffee shop. HILARIOUS blog. I like your style of humor. You read a lot. what do you read?

I’ve been reading a lot of futurists recently. e.g. The Singularity is Near… primarily for the effect of getting myself worked into some sort of profiteering nightmare.
And a fair bit of my hero, Hunter S. Thompson.
Else, just the ‘news’… and that’s not always so great.

That guy is nuts yo’…I came here for itty bitty science and all I get is a bunch of kick ass. I don’t know if I should be enthused or pouting….
