<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You see, the course I signed up for was Basic
Boxing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, for starters, form combines all those things
while at the same time helping you remember your moves by acting as a sort of text
book of techniques.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Those of you have been getting my newletter for a
while may remember the all-knowing, much-feared Evil One.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fight your way free if you have to.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You need to tap into every pharmaceutical nature
equipped you with. Does that end up on the ground?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What I mean is get moving. Train like you mean
it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If they wanted something else, you need to be
moving away fast. Will it work for athletic performance?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now swing them back forward and, without using your
hands, stand to a squat, knees bent so your thighs are parallel to the
floor.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now swing them back forward and, without using your
hands, stand to a squat, knees bent so your thighs are parallel to the floor. Sit
down from where you are and throw your feet over your head until they touch the
floor behind you.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That advice about stay calm is bad
advice.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you move, he reacts, maybe he reacts
poorly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I notice all the time that martial arts students
tend to have lead feet. Then the heavy armor was ditched with the development of
firearms.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What I mean is get moving. How about listening to
your spouse or children? Most of our energy in a fight goes to nerves.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And that we need only avail ourselves of it, and
enjoy it, and share it, and pass it around, and there will be plenty more after
that. Circle, circle, circle.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The kick over squat variation I teach begins from
the standing position. The Romans, with their love of blood sport, developed a
spiked glove called the cestus, which gave one a little edge when fighting the
lions, but not nearly enough.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you move, he reacts, maybe he reacts
poorly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If he runs out of gas before you do, the odds just
improved dramatically. What else is there to do?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The moon was bright enough to read by, the water
was black and flat and silent, and we just floated and talked and fished. What I
mean is get moving.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fencing emerged as a sport and combat art, and from
there western boxers learned the straight right. Until next time, train like you
mean it. they want to actually get somewhere with their training.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So give the kick over squat a try!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why would they become paralyzed with fear? that act
as exercise and practice. After the police come? Of course you can do more for a
morning workout, and if you want to add something to the ten or fifteen push ups, by
all means do so.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We shot the first half last weekend, and I plan to
shoot the remainder this coming Saturday.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For you one push up is a realistic starting
point.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Will it work for athletic performance? </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
