dynamic tension in kata - 01/29/06 11:58 AM
why do we use dynamic tension on certain movements in kata ?

What value of the latter
Quote:and you said
<<Dynamic tension is a way of conditioning the body to withstand strikes
Quote:Actually my ultimate goal is to not be struck at all, if i'm not there in the first place i won't get hit! regards,
Is the ultimate end of your idea, (this idea) to withstand any/all strikes ? Is there such a thing as silly ~melodrama~ in that regard?
Quote:
Does IYO/E this release and comparative hyper acceleration if you will... is that literally expressed within kata? If so that would clearly show a turtle-hare, extremely fast-very slow dynamic which unfortunately I've never encountered... not saying it doesn't happen merely never encountered that type of "light switch" from tense and slow to explosive fast in the manner of a switch going on then off, then on, then off, etc.
Quote:
Unconscious... respectfully don't beleive I agree with that.
I propose nothing BUT conscious, active awareness rather than oblivious, or unfocused, etc. And you certainly could be right too...
What happens if the dynamic tension we're speaking of has a subset of isolation in the manner of weight lifting though a poor example for our uses? What happens if we misunderstood the whole body effect for the goal rather than the smaller parts which comprise in total the tension most comprehend???

Help flesh this out some more, its an idea used often, how can we pin down some of the specifics beyond the generic ~massage the internal organs~ (ie how so) and so forth.
Quote:
For obvious reasons I completely aggree that there is no need to perform dynamic tension until all your blood vessels burst

i believe i get more benefit INTERNALLY by practicing this movement but i do believe that if practiced correctly you will gain EXTERNAL conditionining.James.
