First, I want to point out the difference between the username 7starmantis and 7-starmantis. I'm not trying to answer for 7-starmantis by any...
Thanks! Its good to see you still here, and Asst. Admin at that! Congrats!! :) All is well with me, just insane schedules. I'll drop in from time...
I'm not sure how I feel about this being the thread that pulls me out of retirement. :) However, I think the thing that is missing in this debate...
Well, I gave up looking for the 26 and actually found a place that had a 19 still and purchased it for myself and let my wife have the 26. Shot a...
Hah, no just celebrating with alcohol, tobacco, and firearms (not necessarily in that order). I'm all up for shooting up some compounds though!
A local chapter group we belong to (my wife is running for VP) is scheduling an ATF day. I thought it was good enough to share here. We will...
This will show my naivety I'm sure, but are there legal issues or paperwork and such when buying or selling guns online? Do you guys purchase guns...
I went out this weekend to purchase a Glock 26 for my wife (CCW) and I found that none of the gun stores in my area had Glocks period, let alone...
Funny hearing all you guys talk about Cheng Sifu and Chung Sifu. I haven't been active on these boards in quite some time, but I never used to...
I am a student of Sifu Brandon Jones who is John Cheng's lifelong friend and kung fu brother under Raymond Fogg. I know Sifu Cheng and his top...
Very nice, I wish I could understand him though. Their form is very much like our with some technical differences, but I enjoyed the video very much!
You know there is nothing wrong with this type of training, but it can't be your only type of training. This website fits the stereotype...
Since we were talking about Brendan Lai I thought I would post a video of him doing a form to illustrate what I would consider proper 7 star...
Which is why we beat each other up all the time, right? :)
I dont know, this seems like symantics, but without techniques your principles are useless. The truth is techniques through principles. I disagree...
I have to agree with clfsean on this one as well.
And still in other areas of the country you might get a nice show :) "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard..." Sorry, couldn't resist... 7sm
This is an old thread I can see, and I'm not online anywhere close to what I used to be, but I've trained and currently train in 7* but we do alot...
Just to add to what has been said allready.... There are some great points made, just remember that it takes time. Its not something you can be...
Haha, yeah that sounds about right. Usually we use the conditioning exercises to really "work out" and the rest is fighting and learning. Sounds...
I would love to see Randy beat Tim, but its a risky fight, like others have said. It could turn into a bad idea really quick if he starts loosing....
Nice!
Haha, wow.
Crap, the videos are gone. I was going to watch the Arlovski one again to see what you guys were talking about. I thought the punch was great, you...
Um...no, I dont see how the body could move the same standing as on the ground. I guess on a certain level some core body movements are the same,...
Liddell wants to avenge his loss to Jackson....should be a good fight.
Reading this post and the ones after, I'm not sure if you are agreeing or disagreeing with me, but either way I wouldn't consider "catching a...
I agree with your analysis of real Shuai, very much so! I dont agree on the leveraged based analysis of Chin Na though. Having a good...
Well, like I said, most should. Take for example 7 Star Mantis. The principles that govern the system do not change from standing to ground...
I'll keep this short as not to hyjack the thread. I can understand your mindset having done the research you have done. I've done quite a bit of...
