Hah :), surely you are an instructor of (a) certain martial art(s) then, i never knew it was a general thing.

Thanks for asking. That would be Okinowan Shorin Ryu Karate.
 
Karate :). Thats something i always wanted to do, just never got around to it. I tried Mai Tai, But stopped when i left uni. :<

Unless you are telling us you have a drinking problem, I believe you meant Muay Thai. ;) I have some experience in that field...as well as Cerrada Eskrima, Arnis, Parker Style Kenpo, Northern Shaolin Kung **, Tae Kwon Do, and a few others...15 years of training and 5 years of full contact competition give one the chance to see and do quite a bit...
 
no :) , mai tai, white russians, cosmopolitans, pina coladas , daiquiri's, mojito's, blue lagoons. We drank alot at university :).

On a serious note, yes i meant Muay tai :P. Seems like almost as good a life as diving, probably alot cheaper too. Few of my mates do Judo, the disciplines they have make me so jealous.

Again this is BOLLOX. .... Finally little is known about how your body will deal with Oxygen, 'oxygen and the diver' showed that on different days, under different circumstances, the body can handle different ammounts of O2 exposure, before toxing.

The study of the effects of O2 on the human body were first begun in 1897 by J. Lorrane Smith. He was the first to describe and diagnose acute exudative phase of pulmonary oxygen toxicity, the Loranne Smith effect. Since then countless sutdies have been conducted into the affects of O2 on the human body. We use hyberoxygenation for the treatment of severe blood loss anemia, crush injuries, compartment syndrome, graft flap salvage, wound healing, thermal burns, mucormycosis and osteomyelitis. Medical science knows a great deal about O2 on the human body. The reason that "a body" can handle different amounts on different days is dependent on the interactions of the 400+ oxygen dependent metabolic processes in the human body, all working together to maintain homeostasis.

Only because you did not learn them in your entry level course (or high school chemistry, remember PV=nRT?).

Learned them in both. Just like I said, wasn't reciting them in my sleep yet. ;)

And this deals with Oxygen under pressure, how?

Aikido was my very first exposure to the martial arts, long before I had any formal training. Very beautiful style, but a little too "Do" focused for my liking...I much prefer "jutsu" styles. :)

That's exactly what we like about it.
