Random, OT, Friday Afternoon Thought

Why do they call a g-string a g-string? I mean, there's nothin down there I can think of that starts with a g. Well, there's the geni.talia, but I consider the g-string more of but.t thing than a G thang.

And to keep this kinda CMA related, how does wearing a g-string affect the body mechanics of your punch?

I find it rides up when I execute a cross, but that's just me.

The tighter the 'G-String' is the more of a "twitch" response is acheived from a hand strike when proper torque flows from the hips.

Also, if I begin training now, by the summer will I be able to remove g-strings from bodies on the beach using Lin Kong Jin?

I think the "string" in the G-string is supposed to stimulate your pericardium for more energy and force. Even more deadly is to have the pattern be that of a tiger so as to allow you to combine the ferocity of the the animal and your newfound energy into your hand strikes.

It's obvious none of you know the REAL secret: The G-string allows you to trap weapons/attacks using the cheeks when you are unable to use your arms and legs.

The true masters are said to have a "third hand".

Or it can be used as a weapon. I'm thinking slingshot or bow and arrow here
