Who do we have where? >_>
*Reluctantly starts running* Taijutsu is the literal term for body arts. Using your body as the medium, a shinobi can perform various actions resulting in lethal or non lethal consequences. Both simple and complex movements compose the style, ranging from a standard kick, to a complicated series of movements. The most important factor of Taijutsu which many people lack is specificity. The description of the action should be streamlined, yet crisp, detailing which body part is used in the action and the intended target. For visualisation and the imagery of a true ninja battle, Taijutsu is generally the best as it is normally the easiest to follow in your mind and even recreate as you read.

Leg weights, used by Lee in the series, are an tool used for training. Taking them off allows for a large spend increase and a +20 Damage stack to any taijutsu related moved involving kicks.

At the moment that's the best I can do, only have limited time online to get this done! If anything needs to be expanded on let me know.

Pretty sure that creative taijutsu on a tree is borderline impossible. lmao xD

I take up a stance, feet spread shoulder length apart one meter from the tree. With my left leg in the lead, I spring forward off my right foot while following through with it. I use my right knee to strike the tree from front on. With tle little room between the tree and my body, I follow through and use my left elbow to strike the side of the tree, as a punch would require more space. After connecting, I push off the tree while dropping down into a low squat, and extending my left leg. I pivot off my right foot anticlockwise, delivering a sweeping heel kick to the base of the tree. Again, once connecting I spring back to give myself some space. With another dash at the tree, I this time use chakra in my feet to stick to the trunk with my left leg, rotating my body to the left and kicking the side of the tree with my right foot. I push off the tree as i'm trying the kick and backflip to generate more upwards force into the kick.

I then punch you in the face 100 times for taking so long to reply. :)

Yo, maybe I should take longer to reply next time. :)

Very good, now with that take these weights that I just summoned, currently they have no massive weight attached to them, all I want you to do is put them on and do a few kicks, there is a minor weight obviously nothing life changing but tell me if you feel a different or not.

Maybe I should change my location? :)

*Puts the leg weights on* Hmm. There's a slight difference though for a taijutsu specialist it wouldn't prove to be too much of a hindrance.

I take a step back and perform a few kicks, alternating between legs. I go through a range of kicks; high, mid, low, sweeps, round houses etc. I also take the time to move around and feel the weight difference while running around to simulate a real situation.

Settle down cowboy. :|

Okay. Good, I performs one seal and it increases each weight by 20Kg. Now, try and do the same thing again with the weights weighing as much as they do.

My legs suddenly get heavier as the weights expand. As you say, I perform the same routine going through a range of movements. Though this time around they are much more restricted.

You mean RP wise? Slow cause of work. Got a few Danny fights in though so not too bad
Alright, so take the weights off. And in detail do the same thing you did before thinking of creative combos in attacking that tree, but only using your legs and the newly attained speed you will have when you take them off.

I take off the leg weights off. It's been a while since i've felt so...light. I perform some small jumps between my left and right leg on the spot to adjust to the feeling. After a few on each leg i dash forward with newfound speed, blazing towards the tree. With a few meters between the tree and I, I jump forward and kick the tree with my left leg connecting with the side of the tree.

After I connect, I extend my left leg and channel chakra into my foot to anchor myself to the tree. Pushing off that same leg I turn clockwise and jump from the tree allowing my right foot strike the other side of the tree with a spinning heel kick. Once I land, with another dash towards the tree and perform dynamic entry leading with my left leg. After taking a step back and looking at the tree, all strikes left much greater dents within the tree.
