Let's face it most instructors of karate and other martial arts with the greater exception of Tae Kwon Do and Judo lack sufficient knowledge in sport science and athletic training.
Don't take me wrong they do work out hard and try even harder, but its about time that karate instructors start getting knowledge in correct sport training and conditioning. And maybe then one day karate could become and OLYMPIC SPORT.
the problem must of the time is that when you get old your performance greatly declines. Also the amount of years of training improperly i.e. training with the lack of knowledge in athletics and modern sport sciences contributes a lot to an unhealthy physical condition.
Well, now they ARE gearing up to make Karate an Olympic sport.
I couldn't be anymore mortified.

Karate...an Olympic Sport??? Please excuse me while I PUUUUKE!!!!!
I hope karate never becomes an Olympic Sport. It needs to stay true to it's roots as a method of combat. My opinion anyway.

Most of it os the same as the one I do. (Shorin Ryu Matsamura Seito)
As for those bitching about the speed: Get bent. It's impossible to understand what's going on if someone is moving at a hundred miles an hour.
