Consisting of twenty-one exercises. Stone Warrior is designed to build strength, muscle mass and power. As with all the other sets in the program. Stone Warrior does not require any equipment and can be performed in a small space of four to six feet. Tensing the muscles with the maximum power to develop the body much lik that of weight lifters but without the equipment. For the martial arts student, the exercises all hace combat applications to develop the blocking and striking power of the body.

Daily practice of the Stone Warrior begins with learning one set of three exercises each week for seven weeks, performing each exercise 12 repititions.

Full tension is applied with each exercise throughout the body. Daily practice begins with 15 minutes and will increase to 90 minutes at completion.

I'm sorry that you were not happy with the production. If the DVD is faulty, please send it to me for a replacement.

No, not filmed in the basement but in a 5,000 sq ft hall where we were hosting the seminar.

Yes, out of breath because the exercises are under full tension and demonstrated at full tension. If you're not out of breath with the exercise, you are not pushing enough.

Iron Vest is the internal set, Stone Warrior is all external. Please visit my site for more details on the complete Chinese Strength & Health Program.

We will refilm this DVD to make the atmosphere more appealing.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,
Thomas Keen

Okay, I gave a pretty bad review of this dvd originally because it didn't play right. But after viewing it without the technical problems, I would like to say that it is a pretty good program and given the rarity of the subject matter, a good addition to any collection. Ancient muscle conditioning? Not many dvd's out there on the subject. I've edited my original review and it won't allow me to give it more stars, but I'd give it 4. Sorry, Mr. Keen, if I cost you sales on this. I commend you for putting this out.

Great form of exercise and definitly a challenging form of qigong for the advanced practitioner, martial artist looking for some form of expansion to their training. The only downside is you will not find any of the internal basis or what have you on about the Stone Warrior or Iron Wire/Thread qigong on the disk, but it is the advanced portion of their system so they probably expect you know about the internal or historical aspects already.
