Q&A: What adventure/extreme sports do they do in japan?

Question by : What adventure/extreme sports do they do in japan?
im heading over there in 6 months time for a holiday but id like it to be more than just a sight seeing holiday which tend to get abit boring. So what are some fun activities do they have available to do over there?

Answer by thecheapest902
I don’t think there are many “extreme” activities inherent in Japan.

What we have is what you have there, like skydiving.

Or you can go to caves like this.

Are weight loss supplements dangerous or do they work?

Question by TJ: Are weight loss supplements dangerous or do they work?
I am doing some weight training for the first time. I love working out and want the best possible results. I’m seeking to become a personal trainer, do some excersise videos, and be in a few fitness magazines. Do weight loss supplements, such as hydroxycut or slimquik, really work? Are they dangerous for your body? How do they work?

Thank you kindly for answering. I appreciate you all.

Question by The Usker: What are the different types of martial arts commonly taught in the US? How do they differ from each other?
I’m looking to take up the martial arts but I’m not sure which I would like best.

Also, if anyone knows of an online directory of martial arts schools where I can find what is close to me, it would be helpful to post the web address.

Thanks.

Q&A: Medieval Martial Arts: How did they incorporate adrenaline or stress control in their systems?

Question by Just Me.: Medieval Martial Arts: How did they incorporate adrenaline or stress control in their systems?
You see all these Medieval Wrestling Styles, or Street-Fighting Styles. But now days they teach psychological aspects, meditation and mindset. Like how to control your fear, adrenaline. Is it because in the Medieval Martial Arts if you lost, you either was seriously injured or dead? So it was just like Street-Fighting?

Best answer:

Answer by Stormy
Basically, yes.

The way they were practiced or taught there was no insurance, no risk assessments, no mats, safety equipment or what have you. There was none of this semi contact rubbish. They just trained against a resisting partner. That way they got the techniques right in circumstances that would make it difficult for them. Therefore the biggest issues, of confidence, fear and technique going out of the window were already overcome.

Also, a street fight didn’t tend to be unarmed – knives, clubs even swords would have been involved depending on the culture and country. So they didn’t solely wrestle in a fight over who actually owned the pig.

What type of lawnmowers did they use to use to mow golf putting greens before gasoline powered ones?

Question by Bryan A: What type of lawnmowers did they use to use to mow golf putting greens before gasoline powered ones?
Ok here’s the thing: I play golf and there’s an open space of long grass by my house. I would like to mow myself a putting green, but I cannot afford a high end lawnmower for greens that golf courses use. They obviously use to use reel mowers at some point in the past and so I would like to know the type of reel mowers they use to use and attempt to buy one.

Best answer:

Answer by ristop
push mowers with rotating blades

How many people can play basketball really well that wished they had played college basketball?

Question by God’sStrength: How many people can play basketball really well that wished they had played college basketball?
I’m 30 years old, and well, I never developed a jump shot until after High School. Later, I became really good. I joined the Army for 8 years, and then got out I’m now 30 years old. I can still play basketball exceptionally well. Sad truth is, no one is going to take a 30 year old college basketball player, or NBA rookie for that matter. I play for sport and fun now. However, anyone like me, and wish they had really went out for the NBA in hard work and pursuit?

Best answer:

Answer by B-NUT
Yes, I feel the same way. In high school I could play college level defense, but I didnt have the shot. I had the ball handling ability, but like they say, “if I only new then what I know now”.

Why some people have ugly bodies even if they do aerobics everyday and exercise?

Question by Olivia: Why some people have ugly bodies even if they do aerobics everyday and exercise?
I’ve been going to the gym, maybe once a month (what a shame), and I’ve been seen women with really nasty bodies. I don’t mean fat, like a weird shape and I hear them talk that they go everyday. It’s not even muscular, it’s like no ass, weird stomach and stuff. That really doesn’t help me with incentive to go to the gym. Anyone can tell me why those women are like that?
