★ when throwing a knee, always pull back to stance unless you land forward and throw right after ★ always block with the instep of the shin, bone on bone will hurt you both
★ don't breathe out and spit, but grunt to exhale, and don't sound like a pu$$y. I think I sound like the guy in Drowning Pool (RIP)
★ after kicking, use the leg momentum to sling shot back ★ when jabbing, step forward but keep the back leg planted ★ on the uppercut, bend the legs a bit and DIG ★ after a knee you can shoot the knee back into stance

Research tells us, on the other hand, that most highly successful people across a variety of fields—from arts to athletics and science—succeed by maximizing their strengths, not by focusing efforts on their weaknesses.
A recent book by management guru Marcus Buckingham makes this essential point: great businesses (and managers) play to their strengths. They don’t get bogged down in efforts to make themselves less weak in particular areas. Instead, they find ways to compensate for weaknesses and take full advantage of strengths.
Michael Jordan longed to be a baseball player and could have spent untold years working on becoming a decent player. Fortunately, he returned to the NBA and to his very special talents.
When you take the kick ★ turn your front leg out, be on the ball of your foot ★ step the back leg back into bull stance ★ return the kick . . When taking a right lead hook ★ pull the right arm in to guard ★ bend the legs, bring the knees together sort of (counter force) ★ explode out and return
as much as I love Ministry I'm really loving this new Reboot track, if you aren't bumping by 3:00 in, f★★k off, don't wait for further notice, you suck forever :)
★ pivot the back foot on right kicks. (holy sh!t what a difference)
defensive UPPERCUT ★ step back with the back foot, land and at the same time hit with the rear uppercut, then right hook as you rotate out, then a cross
SPINNING ELBOW ★ jab, jab 1) fake a missed jab and step lead leg right or hook 2) spin and land inside the opponent's feet, below into the body or uppercut-elbow through the guard
"you suck until further notice" is an instruction of improvement, respect, and humility, from a book called "Bomb the Suburbs"

:: the zone ::
This lack of fear translates into a carefree state of mind, similar to the state of mind many great athletes describe as a "zone." If you've ever had the occasion to experience the zone in some sport then you know it is a state of mind in which there is absolutely no fear and you act and react instinctively. You don't weigh alternatives or consider consequences or second-guess yourself. You are in the moment and "just doing it." Whatever you do turns out to be exactly what needed to be done.
Most athletes never reach this level of play, because they never get past the fear of making a mistake. Athletes who reach the point where there is absolutely no fear of the consequences of screwing up will usually, quite spontaneously, enter in "the zone." By the way, a psychological zone is not a condition you can will yourself into, the way you can will yourself into a feat of endurance. It is a state of mind you find yourself in that is inherently creative, and usually if you start thinking about your actions at a rational or conscious level, you pop right out of it.
Even though you cannot force or will yourself into a zone, you can set up the kind of mental conditions that are most conducive to experiencing "the zone", by developing a positive winning attitude. I define a positive winning attitude as expecting a positive result from your efforts, with an acceptance that whatever results you get are a perfect reflection of your level of development and what you need to learn to do better. That's what the great athletes have: a winning attitude that allows them to easily move beyond their mistakes, keep going and improving. Others get bogged down in negative self-criticism, regret, and self pity.....
