Triste Kai Kazuku Any part of the body huh? Hm, thats a easy one. THE BRAIN! anyone can learn to use there arms, legs, torso...etc etc in a fight, but how are they learning it? they're using their brain. Read the first post and try again. Are you using yours? sweatdrop I'll stick with my answer. Because the others really don't mean a thing without the brain. And I really don't care if you want to exclude it, because no matter what you want to know about others body parts, the brain is still be best. Thats how simply pathetic looking men can easily beat toned men who have worked there body and not their brain.

my opinion it is the eyes, because you use your eyes to see how to do techniques.

Lunaries Mirko_Filipovic That's completely untrue. People that have lost their legs don't lose their balance. Let me rephrase. Losing your pinkie toe would mean you have to learn how to walk all over again. We depend on them more for balance than we realize. Why I know this as a fact? A family friend had their pinkie toes surgically removed because of a diabetic condition. your thinking the big toe thats the one that stablizeses the foot but i guess youd have to learn to wakl with out the pinkey toe as well thought its not as important as the big toe its probally the weirdness of not having the pinkey toe would be one reason why youd have to learn to walk different.

No, dear. The pinky toe is a major stabilizer. Don't underestimate it just because it's small.

When did this become a rule? *cough* It's not how you use it, it's how long you can use it before it breaks! XD Even more importantly; It's not what you dig with, it's where you dig! XD

I'd like to say the mind for obvious reasons. And some not so obvious. I think thats where your will comes from and your resiliance.
Other than that... There is no most important body part. If I had to choose I'd stay abdominal area. That is where a great deal of the power comes from, as well as your balence. You go stiritual thats where your chi circulates. But I cant choose. It all depends on the person, style and so forth. But relying on only one thing sets one up for defeat.Taekwondo relies heavily on feet, but if you cant use your hands proficaintly you'll have problems.

To those people who answer "the mind": please use yours and take the time to read the first post in future posts. Not to be offensive. Kai Kazuku I'll stick with my answer. Because the others really don't mean a thing without the brain. And I really don't care if you want to exclude it, because no matter what you want to know about others body parts, the brain is still be best. Thats how simply pathetic looking men can easily beat toned men who have worked there body and not their brain. I ******** know that already; the mind is pivotal only when you figure strategy into the equation, but not so much in the mechanical execution of a technique. domokun I mean to stimulate discussion by excluding it because there's bound to be some differences of opinion into which part of the body is most important in the execution of a, say, side kick. Obviously the mind decides when a side kick is to be used, but it doesn't actually do it. rolleyes

Where do you live, because where ever you are, you must be able to live without a brain and still walk around, talk, breath, piss, s**t, eat, all without a brain, way to go, your a zombie.

I think its fairly well accepted that the mind and body can be divided into separate catagory's. The mind isn't actually a body part, its an abstraction, the brain isn't worked out in any conventional sense. You dont do twenty "brain ups" to improve your thinking capacity. Mind you I think the question what is the most important mental process in martial arts, would actually make a good topic in its own right. Fighting spirit and honour? Calmness/centeredness and the ability to deal with adrenilin? Strategy? Reactions? Controlled aggression?

Way to go and find a new topic, Darkling. 3nodding As for Kaizaku, I think you're being a nitpicker. Triste knows the brain commands the body, you know that. And you fully well know what Triste means. The brain is in fact not a muscle. You may have the brain, but if the muscle doesn't respond, there is still no movement. The two are separate. What triste is basically asking is; which part of the body is most crucial to movement, subject to both the conscious and unconscious mind. I had really hoped people would read the first post, decided to be intellectual about it and not turn this in a pointless, off-topic argument which could have frankly lasted. Again, Sun Tzu; "The less skilled fight, the skilled avoid battle".

No, dear. The pinky toe is a major stabilizer. Don't underestimate it just because it's small. no its the metatarsil behind the pinkey toe that stablizes the foot not the toe its self cause the toe is pretty much vestigal and the metatarsil is what makes your foot arch so technicaly im right about the toe being unimportant. i know this cause i failed a colege anotomy course i took in high school not cause i didn't know my stuff but cause i didn't turn in a single home work assignment excpt the papers i had to do and those i got a's on. plus the teacher even yelled at me saying" god damn it youd pass this class if you just did your home work. i know you know your stuff i just need you to leave my writen prof that you do" my response was "meh."
