🧵 Dojo choice
Anonymous at Mon, 31 Oct 2022 22:03:25 UTC No. 123127
Moving to a new city soon and and want to learn a martial art there. Mostly joining for self-defence, fitness and fun. Can anyone help me decide? There's only four in the area:
Advanced Tactical Combat:
>Doesn't really say what martial art, get the impression it's basically just Krav Maga with a few extra bits
>Trainers seem well qualified, everyone has at least 10+ years experience in various martial arts, and experience teaching military/police
>Accredited by British Combat Association, OCFM and British KAPAP Association (dunno if these actually mean much?)
>Sound cool but not sure if they're legit or a mcdojo
BJJ:
>Biggest dojo in the area
>Offer Gi and No-Gi classes
>Owner has over 15 years experience, the head trainer has about 5. All of them are certified by Gracie Barra Europe
>Regularly send teams to tournaments, hold mini in house tournaments too
>Has a beginners class
Kickboxing:
>Not much info about their actual courses/team on the website, except that they teach kickboxing and recently refurbished their dojo
>Offer lessons three times a week, one of them is contact sparring
>Regularly send a team to compete at WKA and other tournaments, they also train the national team there
>Say beginners are welcomed to any of their classes
Muay Thai and MMA:
>Offer lessons in both, as well sparring in separate sessions
>Two trainers have over 10 years experience, are active amateur MMA fighters, have placed high in a couple of tournaments and regularly go to Thailand to train and fight
>Trained in boxing, muay thai, jiu jitsu, and judo
>They have MT a beginners course starting in January, 6 weeks, 2 lessons a week.
I'm leaning to the MT/MMA one at the moment, at least for the beginners course. Afterwards, I'll maybe keep doing MT and the BJJ depending on how much free time I have.
🧵 Verbal 'martial arts'
Anonymous at Mon, 31 Oct 2022 16:22:03 UTC No. 123075
There's been boxing, judo, mma, muaythai, swordfighting guns-
Do you mean to say there's no verbal equivalent to martial arts, despite all the years of human speaking? insults, comebacks, rhetoric, slander, manipulation, criticism- abuse, domination- how about your best comebacks/insults you've witnessed/used-how many times have you walked away, thought 'I wish I said something/that!' - which if you trained would have won.
Can't find many resources on this topic

🧵 road trip extreme
Anonymous at Sun, 30 Oct 2022 02:25:55 UTC No. 122826
THE DATE: Post cellphones, but pre self-driving-cars.
THE PLAN: The vehicle is packed, the destination is set, now you(ses) just have to get there.
THE HITCH: You have to get there without sleeping.
THE PUN: Intended.
What do you do? How far can you go before you will fall asleep? Will you use drugs to keep you awake? Keep in mind that local laws are still in effect, speeding rolls one D20(jk). Ignore time zones(no cheating).
IRL my furthest distance driving without sleep is 2,750ish miles(4425km). I nearly dosed off once but the bumpy line brought me right back just 400 miles from the destination. Crazy trip, I almost saw two truckers go into the ditch on that trip, one actually did.
Remember: its the last mile that counts.
You have one week to prepare for this journey. What's your strategy, driver?

Peak performance edition
>Should I start climbing?
Yes. Get a friend, find your closest gym, go there and rent some shoes. Start with bouldering. Usually two colored tape-marks set the start of the route and the color of the tape is difficulty. Route is the same-colored grips up until the topmost grip (not edge of wall). There's usually a difficulty chart around the gym somewhere. Two hands on the last grip = you've sent it, congratulations.
>How do I start toproping?
You have to learn how to belay. Almost every climbing gym has toproping courses if they have toprope walls. Same grip-color system as with the bouldering, but here it's more common with each route having a specific grade instead of being within a range of grades. The grading system differs internationally and for style see here for more info: https://www.sportrock.com/post/unde
>I just bought a BeastMaker 2000™, will I finally git gud?
No, you'll just fuck up your tendons. Google "Eva Lopez fingerboard routine" to learn how to use a fingerboards safely.

>thought this was the best board to ask this, because any good thread on /b/ is drowned out.
What in general is the most effective martial art against boxing? Something that would be the best general defense against a boxing style of fighting. To keep it short why I'm asking, there's a party in a few days where we're having a kind of MMA match with gloves and headgear. Almost everyone there will probably expect me to fight this specific person spent a few months training in a boxing gym. They have a slugger style of boxing, relying on their heavy frame to take hits and to deal heavy hits. It will just be a friendly match.
I personally am not much of a fighter, especially not a striker. Any fight that I have gotten in, I rely primarily on submissions and joint locks to make them stop trying to beat the shit out of me. That is essentially my one and only strong suit. Any martial art that is particularly effective against boxing, or at least advice against a slugger type boxer? Any is appreciated.

The best lb per lb martial artist in the world has a background in.. Rugby League and Greco-Roman wrestling. Traditional martial arts are a lie sold to dorks & dweebs. Athleticism from hard full contact sports beats all.
