Anons if he does some shit like this again I feel like I’m gonna snap and lose my job. How do I deal with know-it-all parents? Especially with a “customer is always right” kind of boss? Trying to get a new job but in middle of process rn

Do you have power in your hands? What type?
Do you have that KO switch in your hands, like Mike Tyson or Jack Dempsey? Or do you have that thudding power, like George Foreman or Kelly Pavlik? And how did you discover it?

If that were true then they’d have to be more skilled to make up for such a physical disadvantage whilst competing at a high level.

🧵 universe trying to tell me not to wrestle?
Anonymous at Sat, 27 Apr 2024 13:09:11 UTC No. 195543
So I've been trying to get the balls to attend a gym that does freestyle and Greco wrestling. It took a lot to go to it as I know it's the toughest sport, and I'm not "young".
Twice now I have managed to gather up all my strength and start making my way to the gym, only for freak occurances (train literally going straight past the station, train being delayed for an hour) which left me unable to get there on time
I'm just wondering if any of you had the same sort of issues when you started training. Was the universe basically telling you to stay away but you persisted? Feel like im pushing my luck trying to go a third time lmao
Thank you for reading

Does anyone else think that this was fake? There's a 0% chance that Johnson actually beat this dude. The only possible explanations are that they aren't truly the same belts and are on different levels. Otherwise, the only other explanation is that it was faked/big guy didn't try.

>What is HEMA?
HEMA stands for Historical European Martial Arts, sometimes also called Historical Fencing.
It's reconstructing how to fight with swords, daggers, polearms, and other weapons based on old European fighting treatises

🧵 Why are some fighters so fat?

Seems like some prefer to risk missing weight than lose fat.
Also why do fat fighters often win against taller and leaner fighters?
🧵 Good martial art to learn at home?
Anonymous at Sun, 21 Apr 2024 23:30:58 UTC No. 194982
I used to do martial arts for like 6ish years in highschool but had to stop. But I kind of miss it and want to try it again but can't really go to a dojo due to lack of money and driving ability.
What are some good martial arts that I could learn from home relatively inexpensively. I don't really want to learn to fight and mostly just want to learn katas and actually exercise again
