The Real Stone Age Diet

In spite of plenty of speculation, what people ate two-million years ago isn’t known. Yet the diet of people in still existing Stone Age cultures can be observed. Men hunt and women gather. Both together still don’t provide enough food, even not enough calories, for sustaining human lives! Men have to consume more calories than […]

How to Really Fend-Off Bullies: Dirty Fighting

A frequently given piece of advice is to fight dirty if having to defend yourself. Fighting dirty means to target eyes or windpipe. Some people even in their regular training exercise eye-gouging.

For example had for a while the self-help guru Rhonda Byrne been a popular proponent of this theory in the USA. The author of the Martial Development blog couldn’t apply the theory successfully, so modified it to the Intention-Action-Manifestation Theory, which is […]
