Just curious how many people on here practice martial arts, and what they practice.
I personally take Cuong Nhu, but I have taken tai chi, wing chun, and karate in the past.

What does everyone have as their desktop image? For me I used to always have cars and then went on to chinese and martial art related.
However since playing around with various themes with windows I have started to like shapes and weird emblems.
So guys come on heres the chance to show off your desktop wallpaper no matter what it is. I am interested to see what people have as their desktop.

As a text based game developer, i would have to say that i'm rather partial the the theme of my own game The Oriental Dojo. Which is an martial arts inspired game. I could tell you all the design details but then i would have to kill you, trade secrets and all. LOL.

The stronger a muscle, the more flexible it can become. It is important to engage the muscle targeted for stretching. Martial arts requires both strong and flexible muscles. I am a yoga instructor, so I specialize in teaching flexibility. Most people relax when stretching. This can cause harm to the ligaments, attaching the bones. An overstretched ligament does not return to normal once overstretched. The next time you work on your flexibility, actively engage the targeted muscle. Isometrically tighten the muscle before stretching. You will find, if done correctly, that you have more flexibility while protecting the body. You might try attending a local yoga class to see what effect yoga has on your martial arts practice.
