For those of us who don't know much about Jow, can you give us some
guidance on its use? I know it's a topical ointment, but is it best used
after a shower, overnight, wrapped/unwrapped? Are there any restrictions
on how it should be used? What can it help accomplish, other than
relieving muscle soreness? You mentioned using it for Iron Arms training
- is this just to relieve bruising/soreness? Also, what's the advantage
of the "hot" version?
Thanks!!

Subject: POTENT Dit Da Jow now available!
Hello,
The dit da jow i've been aging is now ready and will be shipped as soon
as orders are received.
Sizes come in wee, not so wee and frickin' huge! Okay old Saturday Night
Live joke with Mike Myers... The Scottish store, etc... Funny stuff...
Hello? Is this thing on?
Anyway, small is the standard size you find on websites which is usually
in empty hot sauce containers, just shy of 2 ounces. A lot of the time
this is $12, sometimes i've seen $10. i'll charge $9.99 just to be the
lowest i've seen.
The "not so small" size is about 4 ounces, maybe a bit more. Bear in
mind that you are not using a ton of this stuff when you use it, so a
little goes a long way. It is $15 a bottle.
The "medium" 16 ounce size (about 500 ml), is $49.99. Buying at that
size saves you $10 from buying smaller sizes in equivalent amount.
So, basically, the cheapest i can go whilst recouping the cost of the
herbs and the alcohol is as follows:
Small: $9.99
Not so Small: $14.99
Medium $49.99
Large: $299.99 (a $50 savings)
For the super hot jow the price will naturally have to be a bit more
since this requires some rare (and in some cases... difficult to find)
ingredients. i would say the prices as follows should help me recoup the
expenses:
Small: $14.99
Not So Small: $18.99
Medium $64.99
Large: $399.99 (a $55 savings)
Trust me, this is BARELY turning a profit. This is really barely over
cost if you figure how much the herbs and a gallon of 50% grain alcohol
vodka costs (for the normal jow), and 95% (for the super hot jow). So
while the price of course may seem intimidating, you will NOT find a
cheaper jow of this quality. You may not even find a cheaper jow. i
haven't, but i don't want to say for sure that you couldn't find it
anywhere. But for certain you would not find this high quality of jow,
probably for ANY price available for public purchase.
The medium size is basically an old Shou Wu Chih bottle full, which is a
huge amount of jow since you are barely using any when you apply it.
The largest size is basically a whole batch brewed and aged just for
you. The medium is huge and would last for an insanely long time. The
large size is more for Lei Tai full contact fighters or people
interested in SERIOUS development of Iron palm/Iron body. ALL of this
jow is "Iron" in "grade" and is not your run of the mill poor quality
jow.
i will also be making available a weaker jow from the second pressing of
the herbs, for general use anywhere or in higher amounts if you so
desire. This would come in handy for use throughout the day if you train
several times a day. This way you could put some on before and after
each training session several times a day, or whenever you feel a bit
sore from all that "gung." That would be about the equivalent of what
you generally find online in terms of jow. What i have available now is
the premium grade stuff, and generally is only given by a Shifu to his
disciples alone. i can't stress enough that you will not find anything
this good online.
