It promoted good health. It was good physical activity that can be taught to fairly large groups. It helped prepare the students for military service.

result well be, the wood well break and the guy will fell nothing

Typically in a Kata, which is Japanese, you will start standing straight up and then you will open your toes making a v shape. in the v shape your heels will be touching each other. After that you will move your hands from your side to the top of your thighs. Finally you will bow, when you come up from your bow(don't go too far down) you come back up to your original position.

After the bow your right foot will step out to make you stand shoulder width apart and you will then back a circular motion with both arms going all the way above your head to your fist closed and out in front of your hip. You will then say the name of your Kata. There are many names some of the names that I can think of on the top of my head is (please excuse my spelling) Takiyoku, Heion Sho Don, Heion Ni Dan, Heion San Dan, Heion Go Dan, Heion Yon Dan, Teki, Basi Di, Basi Sho, Un Su, and Ro Hai. Then you will finally start your Kate strikes)

It is pretty hard to say one is older that another considering they all have the same origins. They split out into separate styles during the last century.

If you kick someone in the lower-mid back with enough force, that can be fatal, as would be to kick someone in the back of the neck. Any blow, whether a kick or a punch, could be fatal.

They can cause blood clots which can go to the heart and kill a person. They can cause heavy bruising, which can lead to many different problems, some of which can be fatal.
