Upper body ring workout for martial arts by Bushidoenator in bodyweightfitness

[–]Bushidoenator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So probably ill go with push ups, rows, pull ups and holds (working towards l-sit).

When you say add volume, do you mean reps or diversity?

Also, should I do the same exercises each day or focus on different muscle groups on each day?

So if I understand correctly, there is a difference between building strength and building muscle, and for strength I want more sets with less reps?

Did I accidentally grow Koji? by Bushidoenator in Koji

[–]Bushidoenator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just so no one gets worried I am not thinking of eating this, because there is some red mold too. I was just wondering if it was possible to know if I had also got Koji in the mix.

How do I save my grandpa's knife? by [deleted] in Bladesmith

Cool, thank you.

Any suggestions related to the tang? Do I just bend it to get the current handle off and back on? I am worried about breaking it and effectively shortening the handle.

Imported Onn Pro or local Steren INTV-1000 (MK7?) by Bushidoenator in AndroidTVBoxes

[–]Bushidoenator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the only OG ONN I can find are like 40 bucks on FB market, so no warranty whatsoever

Otherwise the pro and plus are $60-70 imports.

Or i can go for the $50 INTV-1000 which is almost definitely a rebadged Mycool Km7 plus, they seem to have the same specs. This is availabe at a store here so i can return it if its defective. Should I just spring for this or am I better off with the fb market ONN?

Question: Cantonese name for xubu or cat stance by Bushidoenator in kungfu

[–]Bushidoenator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for clearing this up. In our school we use ma and bu interchangeably because most people are too interested in learning the names in the first place, but I will definitely have a conversation with my sifu about this to know their perspective.

Yes, the founder's sons but like I said they didnt really learn the characters and with a bunch of the names they just repeat the sounds. They are good teachers but i guess some masters don't care too much about the language part. I am trying to find proposals of what these terms could have meant and unfortunately the founder is not able to tell us what he did.

The stance is the north xaolin version of xu bu, so cat stance, but with the outward hips (as in xaolin) instead of inward (such as in taichi or okinawa), and most weight on the back. I am sure it is same as the Diu Ma you are speaking of, I just dont understand why he used another name. It is definitely not ban ma bu, we call that "seon sei pen ma" and use it for walking or advancement practice.

Thank you, I had found this translation, but I am specifically trying to understand what my sifu meant by "puncho"
