Last night we had a guest instructor in our dojang who ran us through warm-ups and technique drills. She had us do reverse punches from a horse stance for five and a half minutes. I held a good stance the entire time even though my legs were shaking a bit toward the end. Today my thighs are nice and sore. However, most of my class was visibly cheating on their stances last night. Bunch 'a wusses.

See, thats what I was trying to explain to others. Just because one can withstand for up to a hour, doesnt lend that it is the most difficult horse (stance).
From my past experience, if one can withstand our horse stances past a half hour, then they are doing it wrong. And it isnt only about pain tolerance

I agree. Doing our horse stance fatigues you so much. It isn't about pain, once you reach a certain point, you just fall. I can say that you, unless you have done it all your life, cannot hold our horse stance for an hour. You would fall backwards after about 15 minutes, if that.

hmm considering that i use to do the stance for 30 minutes almost every day. i think i know for a fact that after 15 minutes you wont fall. honestly just because you guys cant doesnt mean others cant. i've seen plenty that are capable of it.

Let's see your 4 minutes, then you can chastise the rest of us on how long we can or can't hold a stance.
well i can sya whatever i went whenever regarding it. considering u guys blantly tell me what i CANT do. so just maybe if you would shut up about how its impossible(when its a fact thats its not) i wouldnt chastise you. and i already said i'll do it when i get around to it

The human body could only withstand so much-despite whatever training. Simply, if one has not trained in a a particular routine, then they wont be able to withstand it from first get go.

maybe not, different systems of different variations. but the basic horse stance which they are refering to isn't hard to really do for long periods.
but i'm sure in enough time and pratice i could, but theres need to really work on it.

1.) maybe not, different systems of different variations. but the basic horse stance which they are refering to isn't hard to really do for long periods.

1.) In all fairness, this is what I've been trying to say.
2.) Time and practice to get one to a certain level of tolerance. However, I am not speaking of time and practice to be able to go past a certain time. Simply, the stance I am speaking of has three phases and each are designed to spend less time on them to a certain level. The time spent in the stances/phases, is not the emphasis (where other time has to be in account for other routines/things in a given workout). Additionally, lack of circulation takes its toll.
