Well, it's is'nt exactly mental, you will still break your knuckles if you have never prepared for it b'fore Am afraid bones are completely different than diamonds Maybe 'cause they have retired? Get some info b'fore you start spouting off that again Yeah, it's probably means that, it's obvious you don't know much about conditioning. If there's a person A who's done it for years, and then there's a person B who's never had any experience in it and claims A is wrong who do you think I should be listening to? Overall that most conditioning I do for my knuckles is knuckle push ups and hitting the heavy bag, the tree hitting I believe is done on trees with a soft bark not the hard oak trees. Conditioning can be good if done in moderation. |Cain|
For tree hitting I tend to favour birch? trees myself. I find oak a little hard on the wrist and knuckles.
Gee, and mine seem to be intact. Must be a miracle I guess. I wasn't comparing bones to diamond, I was trying to explain the difference between hard and brittle. As you condition bones they become harder, and more brittle. Ditto. Actually I know more than you might imagine. I've spoken with a fair number of medically trained people, both students and doctors, and I've studied medical physics for some time. I know what impacts do to bones, cumulative effects of the impacts, and the risks it presents to you. I don't need to step into the M25 to know that getting hit by a car'll hurt, I can guess that from my own knowledge. The one who can still hold a pen without difficulty?
Yeah, a miracle The theory of the diamond does'nt apply to the bones I'm afraid Yeah, you know I have experinced it You can guess, I have done it and know people who do it and still play the piano |Cain|
where do you guys train? how come no one said a thing about dit da jow? I know it by no other name. I made my own using western herbs. If you use it before and after a conditioning lesson then your joints won't take enough abuse to cause arthritis. the di da jow is some strong **** if you let it sit long enough (about a year). Mine has been sitting for about 2 years. I've used it ever since it sat for 6 mo. i used a store brand until the 6 mo. was up. You guys talk you just do what some one else says just because. I don't have a master or any of that. My teachers were the streets, prison and gangs. I'm not trying to brag (that stuff ain't anything to brag about anyways) just trying to tell you to do some research and you might not sound like a hand puppet. This is MY very own recipe. (my 1st attempt) Use 1 gallon glass jar Mix herbs with 4 to 5 Qts. WINTERGREEN alcohol 1 container of ANALGESIC GEL (depending how cold you want it) 1/2 OZ. OF EACH Marshmallow Root Chamomile Witch Hazel St.Johns Wort Rosemary White Willow Sarsaparilla Root Goldenseal Root Fenugreek Nettle Fennel Seeds Cramp Bark Blessed Thistle Echinacea Thyme 2 1/2 OZ. Celery Seeds 2 1/2 OZ. Dandelion Leaves 1 Ginger Root 4 1/2 OZ. Comfrey 1/2 bottle of Aspirin 1 OZ. Cayenne Pepper (depending how HOT you want it) 1/2 clove Garlic change it if you need to (i grow most of these herbs so I use more ALWAYS). if you don'y know what an herb does look it up
