subject: I Whipped Eight Deadly Ninjas In A Barfight Using Spetsnaz Karate Techniques! [print this page] Eight ninjas with Super Secret Spetznatz karate techniques? I know what you're thinking. You're thinking that this is possibly the worst hoax ever perpetrated on a gullible, wanna be karate student.
Now the catalogue of this kind of junk is immense. Over the past few decades I have seen--take a breath--super secret ninja death commando spetznat cyberneurotic Green Beret government doesn't want you to know eight barroom killer techniques. And the list is a lot longer, but you know exactly what I'm talking about.
I'm talking about cheaters who bilk you out of hard earned bucks by promising you the moon, then give you watered down, generic outhouse stuffings and call it the real martial arts. I saw one the other day, Captain Chris, or Major X, or whatever he called himself. He's still selling the same bullwash and calling it gold, and getting rich off unsuspecting, honest martial arts practitioners.
Now you and I know the simple truth...there is no excuse for good, hard work. If you want to be able to do karate, or taekwondo, or whatever, then you have to work out, and work out long and hard. Fortunately there is one other simple truth...working out is a real blast!
When you work out you build up a sweat, you get rid of poisons in the body, your mind starts to think better, and you get this world beating confidence. A confidence that makes you feel like you're a giant. A confidence that tells you--yes, you can conquer the world!
Now, the fact behind these 'I beat eight skinhead bikers in a bar in the Ozarks' is pretty easy. The author has gotten a hold of a few videos, or watched the internet, and he realizes that the right hand can block both the a right punch and a left punch, and most attackers punch, and if you watch the shoulder you can see when he's going to move. So he puts together eight tricks where you attack eight different parts of the body, and gives it a phony scientific label.
Look, I'm not kidding, it really is that simple, and it really is that shabby. I mean, why not just go ahead and study the art, throw yourself into another culture, an exotic discipline, and really learn something? When you really know the true martial arts you will laugh loud and long at those killer commando death techniques, those so called youtube experts with their snippets of bushwah, those super secret CIA agents who learned from Shaolin Monks in a secret temple.
Those people who try to sell you 'become a killer quick' courses are just reaching into your pocket and stealing your money. It's best if you toss out those comic book notions and find a real martial arts teacher and learn the truth. Look, there is nothing wrong with studying on your own, you just need to seek out the real art and not fall for that super secret spetznatz karate techniques.
