OK, while Her Majesty walks around Slovenia, let me express pleasure that someone wrote a great article about something many TKD practitioners widely forget in modern days. As WTF Taekwondo is (after being martial art) full-contact sport (and nonetheless important for ITF Taekwondo which approves head punches even in sport combat), taking a punch is as much important as knowing how to deploy it. Read on very interesting article until I come with more to say.

Wow, that's such a load of BS. The best way to take a punch is not to take a punch. Which basically means not being around the situation where you might take a punch in the first place. And if you get into such situation nevertheless, than the best way how to take a punch would be running away from a punch as fast as possible. You should write blog entry about that. ;-)
Hah! Look who stopped by to comment - an expert...! Do I somewhere remember how you once took a punch? Wanna talk? C'mmon, thy not be shy... ;) Thx for commenting (your first one, so you have a beer on it). :)
Well, if I recall well, it was you who once said that wise men run. ;-)
Besides, you should be grateful for first comment. Although not being completely TKD-related. ;-)
As for the beer, based on experience seeing (and drinking) is believing. ;-)
Grateful I am. And astonished, that you finally started to learn from older (!) and more experienced... a way to go... ;) :P
Although that lesson was learnt the hard way if I remember right... ;)
