Training log update

I’ve started back training in earnest so I’ve started a new 100 days log here
As an aside, I’d defiantly recommend Trackslife - it’s pretty easy to set up and use.

The Modified 5 Tibetans and new schedule

I’ve written about the modified 5 Tibetans before (Here) and I said that you really need to get this book:
UK: Your Hands Can Heal You, US: Your Hands Can Heal You
because it explains them, the Mentalphysics exercises and a large amount of other stuff you should know (see the other post). But what you don’t know is that I’ve been practising them.
The breath work and tension modifications to the Tibetans are superb and I can actually feel the difference between practising the originals and the modified versions.
I’ve got to admit though, that when they have been modified to be less strenuous on the bones/muscles etc. I usually ignore that and use the more hardcore old style version as I am a strapping young lad after all! I really recommend that you look into the Modified Tibetans as they are pretty effin’ effective.

I have changed my training schedule as well:
Morning: Modified 5 Tibetans
Evening (as soon as I get back from work): Modified 5 Tibetans, 8 Section Brocade
Evening (before bed): Meditation from the 100 days (yes, I completely failed to finish the book! Life just gets in the way! see the next post)

300 - The best film review ever written

Saw this today:

“I just saw a movie that’ll give your eyes boners, make your balls scream and make you poop DVD copies of THE TRANSPORTER. It’s called 300. I don’t know what the title has to do with the movie, but they could’ve called it KITTENS MAKING CANDLES and it’d still rule.

It’s about these 300 Greek dudes who stomp the sugar-coated shit out of like a million other dudes. I have a feeling that a lot of high school sports coaches are going to show this film to their teams before they play. Also, gay dudes and divorced women are going to use screen captures for computer wallpaper.

The movie takes place about a million years ago, and it’s sort of like a prequel to SIN CITY. Except way less guns and cars but twice as much skull splitting. If you watch this movie and go into a Taco Bell, and say to the cashier, “I need some extra sauce packets” guess what? You’re getting twenty sauce packets because your face will punch him in the brain.

I can’t spoil the plot because THANK GOD THERE ISN’T ONE. Just ass kicking that kicks ass that, while said ass is getting kicked, is kicking yet more ass that’s hitting someone’s balls with a hammer made of ice but the ice is frozen whiskey.

TWO COOL THINGS ABOUT THE MOVIE AND ONE THING I DIDN’T LIKE:

COOL THING ONE:

HEAVY METAL DURING BATTLE SCENES
Who gives a shit if the music isn’t historically correct? LORD OF THE RINGS could’ve used some Journey. This movie has that chu-CHUNG kind of metal that you hear in your head when your shift supervisor at Wetzel’s Pretzel is telling you that you’ll have to stay for clean up and you wish you had a sock filled with quarters in your hand.

COOL THING TWO:

FOES, MINI-BOSSES AND A BIG BOSS
Basically, the Greek dudes are fighting these Persian dudes, but the director, who must have a dick made of three machine guns, does it all like a video game. The Greeks fight every death metal video from the last ten years. There’s wave after wave of giants, freaks, ninjas, mutants, wizards, and a hunchback who looks like he’s got Rosie O’Donnell on his back.
Would I have been happy if Dom DeLuise from HISTORY OF THE WORLD, PART I had shown up? Maybe, but this movie more than makes up for that glaring oversight.

NOT SO GOOD THING:

DUDE NUDITY (“DUDE-ITY”)
These are Greek times, when there were a lot of naked women around. And there are some naked women in this film, but almost every naked woman scene has a muscular dude giving the screen an ass picnic. Dude-ity is something directors put in their movies so people will think they’re serious, I guess, and not just throwing in naked hotties.

Any directors reading this – IT’S OKAY TO JUST THROW IN NAKED HOTTIES.

Can’t someone make a movie about naked Amazons and call it PAUSE BUTTON?

My final analysis is 300 the most ass-ruling movie I’ve seen this year, and will probably be the King of 2007 unless someone makes a movie where a pair of sentient boobs fights a werewolf.”
