Alright, one of the things I love about my Sifu is the terms he uses to explain different aspects of our kung fu training. In our most recent filming he mentioned the the phrase 3 floors.
I’ve never actually heard him say that before, but when he did I thought it made perfect sense.
Basically this video is about getting the energy to your wrist. If you notice one thing about what we talk about it’s how important wrist control is in our martial art. Continue reading What Does 3 Floors Have To Do With Kung Fu
In martial arts one of the things we hope to learn is how to block punches right?
The problem with this is that it’s really not the most effective way from stopping someone from punching you in the face.
It might slow them down for a minute, but ultimately it won’t actually stop them from attacking you. While I am on the subject trying to block punches is also like trying lock a persons wrist.
Don’t get me wrong it’s good if you can block punches and it’s also good if you lock a persons wrist.
What I am talking about though is if you get stuck on the idea that you have to stop the punch or the idea that you have to get a wrist lock to work. Continue reading Still Blocking? Trying To Block Punches? Try This Instead
Somewhere around 2006 I finally decided to look into what all this wordpress buzz was all about. Clearly I was missing out on something. As the years roll by I keep blogging.
Especially here on this blog. I admit there has been days where I come to my blog and just stare at it. Wondering if anything will ever come of this space. I remember starting this blog thinking goodness do I really want someone knowing who Larry Rivera is?
Even more frighting was the thought of actually putting my thoughts where the world could potentially see them.
I had lot’s of hang ups when I first got started putting myself on the world wide web. I must admit though, I remember like many of you may remember the first time I got online.
Listening to my computer connect to the internet via AOL and being able to tap into the world and communicate with the rest of the world. I remember just searching and searching about anything and everything.
Once I finally stumbled upon the idea of blogging it was around 2006. I didn’t at the time have Larry Rivera as a domain. In my studies I read somewhere that you needed to brand yourself so I bought my name. Continue reading How To Fall In Love With Blogging Again – By Larry Rivera
Okay so to be honest when I first learned about vaping I was little bit leary. I don’t like being a Guinea pig and to be honest there really isn’t a lot of research on how healthy vaping is.
However the alternative was to keep smoking cigarettes which we do have enough research to show that it’s down right dangerous to your health.
I tried all kinds of methods to stop smoking. None of them really effectively worked. I enjoyed puffing on those cancer sticks. I have been smoke free for several years now all due to the fact that I can vape.
Once I realized that vaping really could help me kick the “smoking habit” I started buying all types of different E-cig products. If there was one thing I realized for sure was that it’s another expensive habit or so I thought.
I thought this because I was buying those over the counter little e-cigs with catridges. I did buy a few brands online but the atomizers kept going bad really fast.
Finally after looking at the cost over the past year I decided something had to give buying e-cigs was becoming an expensive habit. That’s when I started looking at the more expensive vape units. I bought my first set up and shot a video about it. Continue reading Nautilus Aspire – Quick Review – Smoking Kills Stop Now – Start vaping
