Re: Aikido Supplemented with Push-Hands?

The bench press exercise was already tried, and results reported. Now what?

A secret of internal strength?:

By the way, not to lose sight of the original intent of the thread... the idea of using some form of push-hands-like practice in Aikido is to increase the number of exercises overtly focusing on Kokyu/jin development.
i understand in concept, although much easier said than done. very very cool stuff. looks like magic.

There is less of a chance of misinterpretation or misunderstanding in person.

Yeah, but I've been to enough of these 'meet me and it will be clear' things with random people to know that the majority of them are a waste of time.

Could what you're showing be different? Maybe. But that's not a chance I'm willing to take.

I mean, you were just talking about a simple bench press things which you were able to tell me without being in person. Why you couldn't explain yourself further is beyond me.

Sure I can write out an explanation if you would like, but it would be easier to show you.

The "simple" bench press isn't quite so simple.
