But what do I know, I only spent a few months studying taiji in a studio.
People shouldn't HAVE to put up with his shit in here. If he dislkies everyone who talks about CMA's so much then stay out of the forum and let people who want to converse talk.
T-Liz want to have a martial arts class in a cow field. They'll be lots of fat annoying asses spreading around shit. Just like here. It'll be fun.

...jubaji isnt a help to the CMA forums he kills them...people with far more experience in combat and taiji than jubaji dont post here because they dont feel like putting up with his inexperienced opinions on combative application of an art he spent a couple years studying in a park. Fact people.
Somebody mentioned something about something being in a knot?
Somebody mentioned something about someone being insecure and defensive? Oh wait, that one was me!
Which one of these put those wrestling tights in a wad….I mean the one that really freaks you out, jubaji? We can go with the too deadly thing but I don’t think that Boar ever said that. Pick one dude…I gotta know.
Hmmmm...so hard to choose...I think its sort of a cumulative effect of "the too deadly thing", which he has said several times, and the general "If you don't agree with everything I say no matter how exaggerrated, you just haven't seen the "real" thing. The combination of outlandish claims and hypersensitivity is very special.
And do you have any idea how hard it is to get those knots out?
Actually, now that I think about it I guess what really bugs me is what a disservice to TMA in general Hyperbole Harry and his ilk are. Folks can't just have fast hands (or feet, or whatever), they have to be too fast for the human eye to follow! Folks can't just hit hard, they have to unleash a deadly unstoppable force that reduces the foe to dust! TMA can't just be effective, they have to be too effective to use lest our fragile earth be torn asunder!
Normal, rational people who just don't happen to have had any exposure to TMA don't read those things and say "Well, that sounds good. Think I'll give it a try!" They envision developmentally stunted paunchy 40 year olds in PJs and ponytails leaping about defeating imaginary foes. That doesn't do anyone any good. Personally, I would like to think that TMA deserve a bit more respect than that.

There is a poster right in front of the front door of the boxing gym I train at of Muhammad Ali with the quote (I'm paraphrasing) "I'm so fast last night when I turned out the light I was under the covers before the room got dark." I've heard boxers say stuff like "He's so slick he could shadow box in the rain without getting wet." I've heard wrestlers say stuff like "He ripped the guys arms off!" There's a difference between using colorful language because you're enthusiastic and deliberately trying to bullshit people. It's pretty apparent that Boar is firmly on the safe side of that line. I laugh at your jokes more times than not and I'm sure you're having fun winding these guys up but your argument here is pretty thin.

Some may think that way but this is what I thought, “Oh shit…some red neck biker, motherfuker is talking about Erle Montaigue…and he’s making sense !!!” On a side note, I choose to do what he(Erle) does ‘cause, well…I like his style. I looked at his fa-jin and said “I can do that.” This sounds cocky but, it was just me at a computer in Shin-Koiwa, with a cup of coffee and a hangover that just wouldn’t leave me alone. Nothing real bold or anything, just me looking at a screen and saying, “cool….”. Anyway, I kept reading Boar’s posts and he kept shelling out a lot of good info. He started posting about where Erle makes mistakes! Even more off the wall, I was understanding!!I asked Boar a few questions and the answers changed my form!!!
That last sentence about changing my form might not be a big deal to you or anyone else but…you should see the vid (of my form)…it was wild, man…crazy…I look back on it and I still don’t understand it. So, I said, “what the fuk” lets go to Boars house (a 15 fuking hour drive!) and see first hand; if he can teach me on line I wander how good he is in person? I don’t really care how good of a fighter he is. The question is, can he teach me? We’ll worry about how good of a fighter he is later in this post but, for now let’s just talk about me. Keep in mind that I’m kind of a natural when it comes to the internal so what I do may not work for someone else. That sounds cocky so think of it this way…A good gymnast can step on the ball (basket ball) court and play but he looks like two year old. He can’t dribble, shoot, pass and he’s always traveling. He moves great, jumps higher, moves quicker but he just lacks the training in the sport…but give him time that’s a bad analogy but that’s kinda what I’m going through with Tai Chi. Anyway, What Boar taught me was priceless. I can’t put a price on it. I got 10% more muscle than before (I already had good muscle mass to begin with); I lost four pounds ( I was already ripped to begin with). My workouts are NOTHING but tai chi forms! (I don’t know. That, to me, is just freaky. A crapy body to the best shape of my life in just over two years...freaky) My striking power has jumped a good 30% and my speed has doubled (doubled because I can use my left hand a lot better) all in just a few (3 or 4) weeks (sounds strange but, these forms are just freaky and remember…I’m kind of a natural)…I could go on but I’m tired of typing…

Funny you should say that…. “too fast for the human eye to follow”…read this
That kinda paints a good picture but it’s different in person (yeah…I know, all the way to fuking Florida…)

Dude, I think you’re blowing it out of per potion. If you show me a quote that he can’t back up, then I can quit typing. You bridle a lot of stupidity on this forum and keep me laughing in the process; I just think with Boar, your efforts are misdirected

Right on dude...
BTW.....I'll fight you in a phone booth and you still won’t touch me!…bitch!…
