About Me

If you are anything like me, you will do all you can to avoid having to visit the doctor. My name is Francis and I live alone in a small apartment in Sydney, Australia. Last year, I finally decided to go and see my GP about a pain in my back. While I was there, the doctor also measured my height and weight. She was really friendly and explained that she thought the back pain may be a result of bad posture. I received a referral for treatment and I since receiving this, I have felt much better. I am so pleased I got to know my GP.

Fighting Feet

Training in any martial art can be taxing on your feet, especially if you are training without footwear like you would do in some kung fu schools. Training barefooted can be great for developing additional strength in the feet because of the reduction in support of the arches, but also because it allows you to grip the mat with your toes for stability. This is essential when training judo, karate and jiu jitsu .
