Does having a black belt or the fact they having been studying their discipline for decades make them an expert? What exactly makes someone an expert in the martial arts? Can everyone achieve this?

martial arts

Makoy1983 being an expert doesn't really equate being a blackbelt, though they're all deserving to be one. i know and practice with a lot of lower belted practitioners and they're really good.

Makoy1983 thanks. i agree that martial arts really coes from interest. one of the reasons why i really do practice martial arts is for fitness. and aside from that its so practical, you could defend yourself at least when you have some ideas and experience in martial...

i'd pick charles barkley. he's not really a talented or skilled basketball player like michael jordan or isiah thomas and not as tall as kareem adbul-jabbar and hakeem olajuwon, but what made him stand out is his heart. he has...

Makoy1983 setting aside his badboy image, dennis rodman is no skilled player. but what made him stand out is his heart and passion for the game. he grabs rebounds and dives for loose balls, its takes a lot of heart to do those things. not all players are willing to do...

Makoy1983 yeah, he's already great, but he has not yet proven a lot. he's still got a lot. he's young and could develop even more. we even have not seen half of lebron james full potential

I say it's the Dallas Mavericks who lost to the Golden State Warrior 4-2 on the ongoing NBA playoffs. Dallas has the best records and they have the MVP of the league in Dirk Nowitzki. So it is expected for them to go to the...

Makoy1983 vince carter owns the sickest dunk in the olympics. leaping over 7-foot-2 frenchman frederick weiss literally for a dunk. no one has ever done that to a man that tall in a game

Makoy1983 i was thinking robert horry is an odd man out for the spurs. he just averaged a little above 3 points and 3 rebounds a game in the season, both are actually career lows for him. but the 36 year old veteran came up firing in their last two games against the...

Makoy1983 it won't be wasy for the rockets to take game 6 away from the jazz especially that they're playing at utah. carlos boozer is playing like a monster lately and teaming up with deron williams brings back the memories of karl malone and john stockton

Makoy1983 experience wise, detroit have the edge, but still chicago can't be easily taken out of the picture immediately. they've got youth and they've got ben wallace.

Makoy1983 playoff experience really mattered a lot in this one. jason kidd just torched the raptors in game 3 with 16 points, 16 rebounds and 19 assists. now that's sick! vince carter also came up firing and had a good game finishing with 39 points. now im also...
