    Yes, this is the only way to isolate the boys from the men.

    The measurements were just monitoring muscle strength and lactic acid but not the oxygen level in the muscle. The initial reading of lactate level was 5.2 After one minutes was 4.1 The scientists were assuming that if the muscles work for a minute will cause the pyruvic acid to convert into lactic acid. However, it was not the case, the oxygen in the muscle have to be depleted before that can happen. In the video from 37:00 and on, Randy Couture was never out of breath and no sight of hypoxia. There was not a chance for the pyruvic acid to be converted into lactic acid. Instead, the pyruvic acid was converted into ATP. Hence, that will cause the lactic acid level to drop from 5.2 to 4.1. Indeed, the measurements were done incorrectly and caused them to draw to a wrong conclusion.

    宁 Sharing new or different knowledge is not making enemies. If people don't even try to understand something new, and stick with the stagnant ancient knowledge is not making progress. FYI your information, the modern science explain them all if you are willing to open your mind to it. 難道為了這些不重要的小事就可以埋沒現實了嗎...??? Do you think this unimportant little thing will make me to hide the truth....??? PS... For those who are not interested, please don't bother....

    Fight science (MMA) full episode Okay...I think I know the answer why his lactate level went down. Please watch at 37:00, the answer is right there. This is to test the knowledge for all the Martial Artists Tai Ji and Chi Kung practitioners. PS... The clue is in the Cellular Respiration(CR). Any one can figure this out. I'll let you guys have some fun. You can guess the answer or study the CR process and get the answer. This is very educational to the Martial Art practitioners. So, you won't be insulted even if you have given the wrong answer. Please give it a try. Thanks.

    No, it was not too late as long you are presenting something scientific. What else did he do besides working on his muscles....??? It would help me to give an analysis, if you can tell me how did he work his muscles also.

    Marblehead... You think that you are a Taoist but you are not because you are trying too hard....

  13. Microcosmic Orbit & Tongue Position

    That's what they say too....
  14. Having trouble understanding some stuff....

    Pardon me for my intrusion, I think I know why you'd fallen into this dilemma. I see a statement which do not coincide with the philosophy in the Tao Te Ching. The contradiction lies on the word 'nature'. Taoism is not about following your own inner nature. It is about following Nature. The outer Nature is not the inner nature. You inner nature is yourself which may not be compatible with the outer Nature. Thus you want to cultivate yourself to be compatible with Nature by following the principles of Tao. Tao's principle was followed by Tao's own natural self. Please notice that Tao's natural self, not your own inner self. That is the difference in my understanding. In other words, do away with your own inner nature and incorporate Tao's natural way into yourself through cultivation.

    Correction: You are one most humble enlightened Taoist with great wisdom.....
  16. Microcosmic Orbit & Tongue Position

    All of the above(1 thru 3). The purpose of lifting the tip of the tongue was to keep the saliva flowing in your mouth to keep the mouth for being moisturized. Skip to 5:00 about moisture in the mouth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8napfejgjE
  17. Which way is right...

    Yes. This way: "While breathing in, you want your stomach to fully expand and suck in the Chi"

    Isn't something that one does is revealing(label) what one was trying to become automatically...???
  21. Religious Taoism & The Monkey King...

    Yes, thank you for your advice. BTW I am always ambiguous about superstitions but I have no problem with putting the facts together.... Practice without knowing is not a good idea in learning, IMO. I'm sorry that one cannot distinguish between the facts and fallacies. I do believe what I said and meant what I said without any reasonable doubts. If anyone have any legitimate and reasonable questions, I am willing to go into any discuss without any temperamental distractions. Peace....

    That was something I didn't have full knowledge of at one time. If I don't stick my head out to have someone to correct me, then I will never know. Would I.....???
