What are Physical Abilities (Kvam Samart)?

Origin

The physical abilities are changeable functions of the biological conditions of the body or memorizable action patterns. The concept of physical abilities is based on the findings of traditional Free-Warrior medicine about the hormone somatropin.

The knowledge about the body, especially about the possibilities of movement and the nature of the body parts, benefits the fighter not only in his own actions. Rather, he also recognizes and understands his opponents possibilities of movement, which are executed under equal physical conditions (the human body).

The Pahuyuth deals with physical abilities in three categories:

• The teaching of breathing technique (Hay Djai)
• The teaching of of Muscles (Glahmnueh)
• The teaching of Movement (Kruehnweihh)
