"The need to defend one's life need not be by appointment, but may occur at any unorthodox time, therefore the forms and techniques of the martial arts are naturally endless."

Jim Hoff

Jim "Psycho" Hoff, his nickname says it all. He was never satisfied with "good enough." He always pushed the limit, sometimes farther than his body could withstand. It seems to me he was always nursing some kind of strain or pull. Of course, when I say "nursing," I mean he relaxed and gave only 150%.
