re: #580 HoosierHoops

The guy that founded my particular style was small. He came up with unique ways to fight as a smaller guy. He was at his most insistent about avoiding soft tissue injury. Incoming energy management etc. He moves well to this day.

Others I know who did “harder” styles like iron shirt Kung Fu and stayed with hard hitting styles like Muay Thai are really hurting these days. Now I train to be very flowing and Tai Chi like in my fighting style should I ever need it. Or I use my gun. High speed tactical competition. Honestly probably my favorite martial art is the handgun against the clock. Hard contact sports are for those young enough to heal well. 20 or so.
