In another thread, someoe claims that his MA system is perfect. Is there a perfect MA system? If a style is famous in power, it usually is weak in speed, and the other way around.
Let me use CMA as example.
In CMA. the styles that are famous in power are:
- Chen Taiji
- Baji
- XingYi Liuhe
The styles that are famous in speed are:
- praying mantis
- Zimen
- WC
The reason is simple. If you
- use 1 second to compress before you release, you can generate the maximum power, but your opponent may be long gone.
- throw 4 punches within 1 second, you may generate the maximum speed, but your punch may not have the maximum power.
In other words, there exist no perfect MA system. It's just a trade off between power and speed.
What's your opinion on this?
