Momentum Based Training
I’ll let you in on a little secret… I can be a little lazy when it comes to cleaning up my house. I like to leave dishes in the sink overnight. I don’t mind dropping clothes on the floor as I remove them for the night. Some days my kitchen table looks like a tornado…

A Glimpse Into Internal Power Training – The Push Test
The push test is a very practical way of testing the quality of one’s solo training for internal power. As explained in Weakest Direction Theory is BS, the body, when properly trained, acts as an omni-directional structure. This allows the practitioner of internal power to neutralize any incoming force by diffusing it throughout the structure…
Martial Software or Martial Hardware?
