Kabuki.. Master of all the Martial arts!! All!

I dont know of you remember this guy, but he was a wrestler I grew up watching back in the 80's. He was a small dude with long hair that hung down over his face. He came out into the ring and blew this red mist out of his mouth to the right, then some blue mist to his left side... "The Asian mist move"He was billed as the Great Kabuki! Master of ALL the Martial arts!

 Even when I was a little kid I remembered thinking, how the fuck can he be the master of all of the martial arts? I mean, think about it... You have thousands of style of Karate alone. Kung Fu, even more... It seems that every insect or animal has there own style,  even though everyone knew this was a bullshit claim.... We all watched this guy! 

Now as amazing as it seems, we see people in the fitness business that specialize in everything... They know kettlebells, barbells, kickboxing, self defense, powerlifting, bodybuilding, nutritional counseling, they offer massages and movement screenings, mobility drills, yoga, Zoomba, Olympic lifting, body shaping, tanning, discounts on botox and seaweed wraps... You get me? They basically are taking the super Wall Mart approach.. they want to be your one stop fitness solution. These people scare the crap out of me...
