Or something.. better than being on 'roids or drugs.

That's really freaky. I'm a boxer and I've had the exact same dream on a few occasions. I'm actually considered to be a hard puncher. But in my dream, my punches are often really slow and do absolutely nothing to my opponent.

Pretty weird!

Maybe these dreams are symbolic of feelings of inadquacy, OR
_________ u fill it in

You're from England but you type like a 12 year old American. Please redo with a spellchecker. And an adult's supervision.

WOW! We are so fortunate to have an English teacher among us!

A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger

About 8 years ago for me. I doubt I'll ever get used to having a gun pointed at me....

That would make me dump too.

Fresh change of underwear coming up

Dont think...or at least dont TRY! If you try to THINK in a fight you are working too hard to THINK, and not to beat the other guy to crap. When you are face with a situation like a real fight, a lot of the blood in your brain drains out to your body.

Try doing what your instincts tell you. And as for fear, DO NOT TRY AND FIGHT IT! Fear will be there. If you fight it, you'll just get into even more trouble. Flow around the fear, not against it.

I took maybe 20 karate lessons, that's it. Default to boxing.

Know that loud sharp Karate yell? Well I did that once, when I was a young lad 20 somethng. 5 guys confronted me... wanting my car. I barked the yell and the big guy in front of me flinched. I ran like hell. Nobody chased.

Element of surprise is a wonderful tool.

Know that scared feeling? IT LEFT the instant I took action and let out that Kiaii!! maybe b/c I sensed I had control

Another time I had a problem; I started to bark like a dog. ROFL, they thought I was crazy, and took off

I haven't had the dump in a long time. I guess you get used to it after a while.

Eat a couple of bowls of stewed prunes. You will soon have a dump

[Ben Grimm]

I think that would be nerve racking for everybody except a complete nut job.

How long is a long time?

You don't always get that dump. Last time I had to defend in street, I had no adr dump at all. Something else kicked in and I just did what I had to do.

Odd, that... cuz no nerves tremblling after it was done, either.

When you are familiar enough with just about any situation it ceases to overwhelm your body and mind the way it can when it is novel.
