Witholding information... A mark of a liar
It is strange that Woodall chooses to refer, in detail, only to questions that are "found on the internet" and to continue to be very vague about questions that could expose him as a fraud. Vagueness is an old ploy used by liars. It allows them to adjust their lies to address real qualifying questions.
He continually uses insults and excuses to cover his lack of real answers. He says that he needs no fame, yet he continually boosts of his imagined prowess. When challenged, he simply says that one is stupid or reluctant to believe, because one doesn't have experience.
Send me an email EAWoodall. If you are who you claim, tell me how to meet you. You joke about your adversaries yet it is you who are the joke. Your ploy may work with children, but not with discerning adults.
For DRBill212- Please post a reply to my post to verify whether Woodall gave correct answers so that we all can put this to rest. You don't have to post the answers, just tell us if he answered correctly.

kuta and hikuta more physics
here is a SHORT explanation quoting from my series of posts on physics and hikuta. Two paragraphs of quotes then I get to specific answers.
------------------------------
physics of hikuta / kuta
when moving in hikuta you must remember to use you momentum.
hitting with only the weight of your hand, will not do as much as hitting with your entire body weight behind your hand. In kendo they jump off the ground at the moment of striking to ensure they have their entire body weight into each hit. I have studied other martial arts as well as hikuta.
(F=ma. e=mc^2=(m*(v^2))/2. p=mv)
note: definition- energy is the name of units of work in physics.
energy = one half of mass times velocity squared.
if bob has v=1 and mass 2 that he uses when hitting.
bob hits with energy amount 1
if roy has v=1 and mass 4
then roy hits with energy amount 2
twice as much mass in strike, twice the energy.
if mike has v=2 and mass 2
then mike hits with energy amount 4.
twice as much velocity, four times the energy.
if chuck has v=2 and mass 4
them chuck hits with energy amount 8.
twice as fast and twice as much mass equals eight times energy.
if john has v=3 and mass 2
then john hits with energy 9.
three times as fast equals nine times the energy.
so both mass and velocity (speed in a direction) are of great concern when the amount of energy matters. Consider the amount of mass of the hand, to how much mass the entire body has. And consider that a very fast small man can deliver more energy than a medium sized fast man.
------------------
there also exists movement in a circular fashion we call angular velocity, angular velocity is measured in omega = 2*pi*radius. We use 2 pi because the distance around a circle of radius 1 or along the path of a sine wave of frequency 1 (which equals 1 cycle per second for one complete cycle)
is 2* pi. So the angular velocity is also important in how much energy is being directed into the target when striking. In physics the moment arm is the amount needed to cause an object to remain at statis or not moving. A one foot long pole made of metal idealized with a 20 pounds weight at the far end from the fulcrum (the point at which it is being held to exert the amount needed to hold it still in this case, also the pivot point or hinge by definition). Idealized so that there is not compression or contraction or expansion(strain or stress). Produces a 20 pound feet 'moment arm' that must be countered by 20 foot pounds of torque to remain motionless. If you move the point of 'balance' of the weight of 20 pounds to 1/2 foot from the end , then the 10 pound feet 'moment arm' must be countered by 10 foot pounds of torque.
so that like a ice skater when spinning as you bring your arms in, the same torque produces much more movement, because the 'moment arm' has gone down, and the less the 'moment arm' the greater effect for the same torque.
the current 'moment arm' divided by the previous 'moment arm' produces a multiplication of the effective movement caused by the application of the same old torque. If you both reduce your 'moment arm', and increase your torque, you can see that you are going to produce an multiplicative amount of effect when striking. Hikuta lowers your 'moment arm' and trains you to increase your torque, thereby delivering such a high rate of angular velocity, in addition to high velocity, and high acceleration that it produces such a serious effect to only be used in emergencies. Furthemore that the separation of the impulse function of an impact is countered by the application in opposion to the separation function, allowing critical time for the energy to be delivered to the target during the impact. Because the contact is maintained slightly longer much more kinetic energy is transferred to the target, causing much greater damage to the target, as well as less effect on the originator of the strike, since more of the energy leaves the person hitting the target, less recoil occurs to you, and so less damage can occur to the person doing hikuta because the energy of that strike is no longer retained by them. In many systems a wrong strike can cause the person doing the strike to break their own hand/foot/etc, but in hikuta since the energy is allowed more time to enter the target less energy is retained, and felt by the person doing the hikuta strike.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1. you reduce your "moment arm". Reducing your "moment arm" multiplies effective torque (applied torque times "old moment arm"/"new moment arm").
the ice skater does not add more torque after they start a spin, i.e. they have as much torque in a spin as they are going to have, but when they bring their arms in they reduce their "moment arm" and you see them spinning much faster for the same amount of torque that was causing them to spin slowly. When you reduce your "moment arm" the same application of pound feet gives you a multiplication ("new moment arm"/"old moment arm") of foot pounds of torque. So you hit MUCH harder, i.e. with much more torque. When you properly hit someone with hikuta you transfer A lot momentum to them, and they often shot or stab themselves, because they are moving away from you at such a high rate of speed that the arms flail/jerk to stay attached to the torso/main body. So since they now have shot (or stabbed) themselves, and the gun (or knife) is not pointing at you anymore, and they still may be shocked by the intense effective transfer of A lot of momentum to their body you should be safe. If not, again use the proper amount of force or deadly force as needed, and that the law allows, i.e. hit them again.
2. Hikuta has an open palm strike, but it is not JUST an open palm strike. Remember the opposition to the separating (or impulse) force causes you to deliver more of the force/momentum INTO the body of the target. They get more impact, and you have less momentum still remaining inside of you to "feel" the strike (harder for you to hurt yourself or break your own bones if hitting improperly because less effective impulse function gives more time in contact with target to transfer energy of strike). I prefer to start students with the Hikuta open palm because it is less likely that they could do it wrong and hurt themselves, than if they use a different technique, because the worst they can do is to ONLY do a regular palm strike, if they do it very wrong, and it is hard to hurt your palm by striking something.
3. if you move much faster than others you can see that it is easy to block. But if you move much faster than others you do not need to block, because you can hit them instead of blocking. The old king fu saying, "the beginner blocks, the intermediate blocks then attacks, the master no longer needs to block". Why wait around to block an attack, attack instead. As you become faster, you have to perceive faster to keep up with your own speed, and so you notice/see faster and develop or react faster. With a martial art that you are so much faster than others (perhaps they do not even do martial arts), yes you could block every punch, but how boring, why not just end the fight before they can do anything, you will less likely to be hurt if they do not hit you at all.
story about use of Hikuta:
I have had occasions where professional boxers have tried to harm/kill me or persons in martial arts hall of fame (or others) have tried to just "learn" if I am a master of martial arts by attacking me, and I prefer to start by seeming like a poser (inept person who makes false claims about greatness). I move slow, and have often allowed them to hit me, just to see how strong someone is, and how well they can give a punch. Then I inform them they won, and they should not bother me again since obviously they can beat me up at will (yes I am lying to them, but if they are a genuine honorable person they will not attack you again, since you are no challenge -- they think).
if they come back and attack me again, I do more. I try to gently move only slightly faster than they are (since I have seen them punch I know how fast they move), and only just barely,barely beat them to every punch, just make contact before they can, to throw off their timing/power. And then explain they shouldn't fight me because I am better than they are (just barely - yes still lying to them, but you have to be gentle as people will let you be). If they come back again and continue to make me harm them I usually just let it go, and hit them so fast they do not see it coming. They either tell me when they wake up or sometime. Those who have bothered me a fourth time I start to play with, nothing bothers a boxer like going slow enough that they can see your hands, but they cannot move fast enough to stop your hands from punching around, but not into their head. Punching near their body, but with no contact so they want to flinch, because they expect contact can really mess with their heads. Sometimes people do not learn so well, sometimes they get the message, and it is worthwhile the sooner they learn. The sooner they learn, the less you have to do to them to keep them from harming/killing you. Professional boxers are not slow, and so do not try this at home. Most members of martial arts hall of fame are reasonable people, but when you easily defeat their students they have a tendency to wonder if you are a master (or not), and so they tend to show up, and try to test fight you themselves. But eventually even they can be shown (slowly and slyly) that you are a martial arts master, and that everyone should show proper respect.
I probably shouldn't tell you any more about that for now.
no you would not become superman by learning Hikuta, although some people have claimed.. no I won't go there. Really. I will not tell about clark kent.
yes sometimes I lie. Stupid I know. Oh well.
