I love bunkai, it's great with chicken.
Kata is great with beef.

everything below mush be don in under 20 minutes, IF NOT = FAIL
300 front kicks (waist high min) 300 Jumping jacks 300 punches from a horse stance 200 push ups 100 crunches That is 1200 things in 20 minutes. 20 minutes is 1200 seconds. That is doing all that at a speed of one per second. I would love to see that. |
