Try using steel baseball bats or bowling pins for practice to build power arms and stamina. These items are head heavy and has temendous wind resistance. I got a junior steel baseball bat and I tell you,,,it worked my arm. A caution,,,choose and pick the right weight for your needs and do not overdo on first try as it can give you "tennis elbow". Jorge Penafiel" If you enjoy "head heavy" items I strongly urge you to check out Clubbells. Even the 5lb versions will tax you pretty quickly, much more than bats. The routines provide dynamic strength(not isolated like regular free weights) and stimulate improvement not simulate movement. Your grip strength will increase in a very short time as well http://www.clubbell.tv/index2.html Steve Van Harn Arnis Sikaran Sandatahan Jornales System --__--__-- Message: 2 Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2005 14:26:57 +0200 From: abanico-video-knuettel@t-online.de Organization: ABANICO GmbH & Co KG To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] 9th Modern Arnis Summercamp of the DAV in Gemany - Review Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Hi everybody, just a small notice, how the 9th Modern Arnis summercamp of the DAV (German Arnis Association), that took placve from the 1st through to the 7th of August, went: This camp was with 146 participants the biggest ever held by the DAV. Besides ther obvious german participants, we had guests from Switzerland, the Chech Republic, Italy and Russia, who traveled to Germany to participate at this camp. The instructors of the summercamp were: Grandmaster Rodel Dagooc, 8th Dan, Batangas/Philippinen; Datu Dieter Knüttel, 7th Dan, Dortmund; Hans Karrer, 5th Dan, Ulm; Jorgen Gydesen, 5th Dan, Ulm; Alfred Plath, 4ht Dan, Alpen; Peter Rutkowski, 4th Dan, Essen; Sven Barchfeld, 3rd Dan, Dresden; Helmut Meisel, 3rd Dan, Plön; New was, that we had a filipino Grandmaster, who also taught at this camp: Grandmaster Rodel Dagooc, 8. Dan Modern Arnis, who started his Modern Arnis training in 1969 under the Professor and who turned out to be one of his best and most loyal students in the Philippines. I had the pleasure to train with him intensively already in 1983, during my first training-trip to Manila and I was very glad, that I could welcome him at this camp. He won the hearts of all the participants with his charme, humor and exoplosive techniques. We had 24 training sessions and during all sessions, 6 teachers were instructing differnt topics simultaneously. For we hat 90 minutes in each session, there was 214 hours of Modern Arnis training in our camp!!! The most important was the good athmosphere, that continued throughout the whole camp. Neither from the organisation, nor from the training structure, there were any problems. One comment of a 45 year old participant: "I have participated in many camps ans seminars in many different sports. But such a smooth camp in such a friendly athmosphere without any disturbance, I have neve experienced before." Also Grandmaster Dagooc was very pleased with the summercamp. He said it was a unique experience for him to train Modern Arnis with so many participants. He was also impressed by the level of the blackbelts, that he could observe during the black belt gradings, that was also held during the camp. Everybody is already looking forward for the next, the 10th, Modern Arnis summeramp in 2007.
