Forms develop the following:
1. breathing

But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

2. stamina & endurance

But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

3. focus & conditioned our mind & subconcious to know how to react in a given situation.

You mean if you are attacked by an imaginary person? No it doesn't. Nonsense.

4. prevents panicking, develop presence of mind not only in fighting but in any emergency situation, decision making.

Total bullshit.

5. develop our foot work & balance

But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

6. develop proper coordination of legs, hips, shoulders & arms

But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

7. develop proper utilization of power punch & power kick.

But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

8. develop timing

Rubbish. Timing involves something or someone to time with!

9. develop techniques#

Totally wrong. Develops thin air technique AT THE EXPENSE of actually hitting power

10. exercise our interior organs

Really? - But much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard

11. develop good blood circulation

Desperate.

12. develop our sixth sense, the ability to feel & sense danger

Haw haw haw!

13. help us develop the ability to see thru certain individuals characteristics & intentions

Fukkin laughable!

I don't mean to be rude, but come on. One or two points above are true, but much less than bagwork, where you get the added benefit of learning how to hit hard. This insistence that Forms must have some use leads to these ridiculous assertions. Sixth sense! Seeing through peoples character?

HAW HAW HAW!!!!!!

Come on people. I'm trying to be nice. But you're making it too hard! I reckon Chris Davies, who is on your side, will cringe in embarrassment at your attempts to justify forms!

THIS IS RIDICULOUS
