A recent testimonial:

One year ago the simplest things became harder, like just getting up off a couch. I remember I’d have to roll off the couch because it was too difficult just to sit up, and when I got up I had to use a cane to walk. I had to step off a curb sideways, a year ago I also had to use an inhaler to help me breathe. Well that was then, today I’m not that guy. I can walk, run, jump, and breathe just fine on my own. That’s what Oom Yung Doe has done for me, and can do for anyone, any age.

Knee replacements soar among US older folks

Or you can train correctly in a system proven over centuries and spend the $15,000 for knee replacement on something else.

businessweek.com CHICAGO (AP) — Just like age-defying baby boomers, older folks have seen a surge in knee replacement surgeries, driven partly by a desire to stay active and by joint-damaging obesity.

Great testimonial on the benefits of the herbal formulas from Inst. Derek.

Last week I was training with the Chu Chuck Bope was struck hard in my right elbow. The nerve was very sore and, within an hour or so, the pain began to radiate down my arm. Remembering something higher belts had mentioned, I applied Nae Gong Spray and within an hour the radiating pain was completely gone and the nerve pain was greatly diminished. Impressive results, even more imprressive how quickly it worked!

Congratulations to Michala Quince on her bronze level demonstration at the 2012 Youth Tournament! Michala received the highest score of the tournament and was the only to receive a medal certificate. Honorable mentions for the udo category went to Willie Laprade, Aditya Rao, Chermeen Pithawalla, Indiana Durant and Ginny Peterson, and to Brent and Seth Haynes for their weapons demonstrations. Many of the demonstrations were very solid and some only needed to increase the level of difficulty to receive a medal. Congratulations again to all who participated! Whether or not they received a medal, we are sure all who put their minds into practicing for this tournament benefited greatly.

Crossfit, Is it a Safe Program? | Trifuel

Another example of the dangers of exercise fads. Proper development involves much more than just sweating, being sore and burning calories. Traditional martial arts developed over many centuries as dedicated masters studied everything there was to know about developing the human body. A poorly balanced untested routine can quickly lead to injuries and imbalances that can last a lifetime. There is a reason these fads tend to fade.

trifuel.com With the increase in popularity the past few years, Crossfit gyms are opening everywhere. People watch the "Crossfit Games" on ESPN and are intrigued by the great looking, physically gifted athletes that are competing. I have received numerous emails, texts and questions on my views on Crossfit and ...

Today students got into practices with their striking bag. These practices help the student much better understand how to strike with all the different parts of the hand so they will correctly execute their forms and self-defense. The rest of the week we will review the Kong Su blocks, attacks and kicks students have been developing throughout the month of July. Also, a reminder that the weekend seminar is this weekend so talk to ARHI David if you are still interested in signing up.

Congratulations Aleksandr

Congratulations to Aleksandr Savin on passing his Black Belt Test tonight in the Bellevue School. This was the second part of his test.

Aleksandr is planning on continuing on to his 2nd Degree.

A recent testimonial from the Pittsburgh Weekend Seminar:

On 7/15/12 I took the water form Blue Dragon. Working for several hours on the form I expected to feel exhausted and hurting the next day. Neither occurred, however, when I went to do jumps (back in the school) I found I had improved. The surprise of doing a jump and actually feeling airborne was a thrill for me.

Lighter Weights Can Still Make A Big Fitness Difference : NPR

An article on the benefits of using lighter weights with more repititions in strength training. Another example of something that traditional moo doe masters have taught for centuries, but which is just now being understood in western exercise science.

npr.org You don't have to lift heavy weights to build muscle strength. Lifting lighter weights can be just as effective if you do it right, and you're much less likely to hurt yourself, researchers say.
