Is trying to damage the opponent's arms a viable tactic or a waste of energy?

What's the best way of positioning your legs during a fight?

>>1695783
Damage an opponents arms? I think taking their legs is so much better and easier to do since you have a huge target. I like positioning my right foot in front left in back like a boxer that way I have my left leg cocked for kicking and a steady balance. Plus it baits out the single leg.

This is cuck and will not work in most situations. This is because the hand travels back to fast. However, you can block with the elbow hitting the ring finger and little finger knuckle, but you need to understand what they are going good for. If you successfully predict him going good for the jaw and line up your elbow you can pull it off. But during sparring in mma circles it is referred to as a dick move. Understanding the line and positioning of the elbow is what you need. You don't need to ruin someone's progress for that, you can just spar and shadow box in mirror.

Based mma guy here again, you ask about the best way to position your legs.

The dream footwork that takes the longest to achieve is often referred to as switch. Someone who is south-paw, has the south-paw advantage, but can switch and comfortably maintain orthodox stance to enjoy the advantage of reaching weak points such as the liver with turn kick and shovel punch. Also switching in the middle of combining techniques.

In muay Thai this would be saenchai. Michael venom page also can do it. The master at protaekwondo Australia on YouTube teaches it.

However, the best stance doesn't exist. You need to switch between basic, bladed and shoulder over knee wrestling stance. The best compromise to me is the foreward-bent wider L-stance seen in bokator and muay boran. It transitions easIlyich to a wrestling stance and allows for fast checks and a wide variety of strike, clinch and throws. It actually works great with judo.

What's a good indicator that I'm hitting hard in boxing?
I've been hitting the pads these past few days with my partner, and he says that he can feel the force going down to his feet when I hit.

So, would that be a good indicator that I'm hitting hard?

Get in competitions, get them recorded possibly, and gauge opponent's reactions when you land solid blows. If you consistently get "fuck that hurt" out of them or even "I'm going to try a bit harder to not get hit with that again", you're punching plenty hard.

>>
>>1700822
It's not so important if you're not working fitness. You need to hit through, if it stops you squeeze Your punching muscles and it will add pressure. But you need rythm and non-telegraphic moves, especially for the jab, make sure you don't move Your shoulder before Your arms has moved foreward enough. Also, quit boxing and do MMA. Another way to hide the motion is to have a good rythm, like moving Your hands in a circle while bounching Down on Your knees, and the Bounce is in Your knees, not Your feet, you need to maitain surface contact. The roll will hide some of the twerk in Your shoulder when you punch, quit boxing and do mma. Also understand small variation, such as aming to Block vision or taking a longer step, but stay balanced so you don't over-Reach, because that forces you to move foreward and you will get countered bady, stop boxing do mma. If you follow these tips you will quit boxing and see improvements, do mma and good Luck.

That is a good Base for mma. Wrestling and boxing is represented as the Base most people have in ufc because it is in America. Turns out these shit arts are really common here and in europe. Turns out that is where most of the fighters come from.

We should shit on boxing, judo, wrestling and taekwondo. Start worshipping real martial arts, not sports and brutal ways of playing tag. Fuck.

I'm trying to spark up discussion. Boxing stance is weak to low kicks, but has whatever advantage you want, generally all similar arts seem to gravitate to the same stance.
For example, shotokan practice has you put your weight forward, but during fighting everyone keeps the weight in the middle, Lyoto Machida says to stay 50/50. Kyokushin practice has you with your feet inward, in the end nobody does this. Motobu Choki said forward and back stances were ineffective and a shorter horse-stance worked best, which is what they all gravitate to.

In the end during a fight your position naturally changes continually, yet there are distinguishable patterns between fighters, should one say they're all the same shit or is there an argument for why one mma fighter has a better stance than another one?
>>
>>1705248
There's not necessarily a better way to position your legs, they all have their advantages and disadvantages and you should both stick to whatever's more useful to what you're trying to do and adapt if its weaknesses are getting exploited by your opponent.

OK, my bad.
>Boxing stance is weak to low kicks,
UFC I was more than 20 years ago man... If you want to bring pro fighter in the discussion, it won't help any of us since none here practice enough to have to reference be relevant about stance. If you want to talk about the cults:
>"Helio said...", "Choki Motobu said...", "Mas Oyama said...", "Bruce Lee said..."
Keep on drinking the Kool aid, but I'll pass.
Finishing on stance, fighters have "styles",each their own way( depending on their advantages and weakness) of fighting, that they adapt to the opponent they're facing in MMA.
But those are thing you learn doing them, not reading about them on an imageboard. Go fucking train now.
>>1705113
DYET?????
>>
>>1704567
Yeah, you can shut up, you don't know what you're talking about.

Bokator gives you MMA mixed With Wai Kru dancing. Yeah, the dancing sucks, but hey, you get to practise all the strikes, all the clinch, all the takedown and all the submissions that you could possibly pull off at every training. That is a great deal.

Sambo: I care about what I see, because what you see is what you get. And I see punching, headbutts, Advanced kicking, wrestling, judo, pins, submissions. That is what you practise before you do it in a tournament. What a boss base!

Myanmar Lethwei: It has one addition, highly specialized headbutts. Pretty much muay boran With rounds. Khmer boxing also allows strikes With the back of Your foot, so you get judo throws and shit. Fucking great base!

Pancration: Pretty much kyokushin With added submissions wrestling. You don't have shit on it. It is a freakishly good base. I don't think kids should get punched in the face. Pancration is what I want my son to learn, it is Perfect for kids. Fuck, what a fucking better base than taekwondo, I wish I started out With pancration. Fuck taekwondo, karate, kung-fu and all that shit!

Based MMA guy here to give you guidance.

I trained With Rambo at Fairtex Pattaya. He does this to his students too. It is very good for you. It fucks up Your psyche, but it will build back up stronger.

What does he do? Does he hold pads teaching you basics and everytime you do even a slight mistake he stops the entire session just to look at you With dissapointment like you're the biggest idiot in the world?

Yeah, that is what you need. It is the hardest way to Train someone, but it is also the fastest. So the pro is that you're gonna be real good, really fast. The con is that it is absolutely exhausting, I sometimes felt like crying when I was done. Rambo kicked me in the leg,, swept my standing leg when I kicked the pad. liver KO me, hook KO me. I was a nervoud wreck, but when I got to my first fight I was psychologically superior to my opponent, because I'd much rather fight some plain Thai dude than doing padwork With Rambo.

This is why taekwondo is the best martial art. We start training our students from day one in techniques like Oegol Magki. A high block that targets the bicep using the elbow to strike.

Even white belts do this thechnique in their first pattern, taegeuk Il jang!

Taekwondo gets a lot of flack, but it is really one of the best systems out there when it is taught like it should be, with the one step sparring, so you learn to block properly.

>>1717113
That is the most stupid thing I've ever heard. Imagine if you're doing a hook. Very often you aim for the face, the jaw. It is closer. Of course, boxers who cheat like crazy because they're shit at everything they do, very much want to hit behind the ear, so they can put their arm and palm into it, as it isn't covered by a glove. There is a reason why they end up looking like the last pope. But if you stop being a bitch and do mma, a real martial art, you need to actually be capable of fighting. So you want to hit the jaw, so you will aim for the front of the bag, like it is icecream and Your hand is the scoop, and you're gonna take a big fat chunk of icecream off the front of it. The bag will spin from this. MMA fux, boxing cux. Man up and learn to do a reset so you can get some decent reps going, Your hook will improve temendously, then you will bow Down and kiss the feet of based MMA guy.
>>
>>1717492
You're just proving your ignorance, it's widely agreed that during bag work the bag should be buckling to your hits.

Beginner in muay thai, out of shape, old, need advice. How do I survive in sparring against agressive opponents that hit hard and are clearly better than me? I can't teep all day...I know there's no real answer aside "git gud", but any tips to survive maybe?

That means your "fully punching" is you pushing into your punches. The tap motion is the right way to punch. Rule of thumb: you want to bring back your punch as fast as you throw it.
>>
>>1695783

How long does it typically take to get from a white belt to a blue belt?
>>
>>1720191
i dont think tap is the correct word.
a lot of beginners hit wrong because they tap completely. you should hit into the bag( like trying to reach its middle) and not just hit the surface of it and immediately retract, but you shouldnt be pushing in either
>>
>>1720176
Here is what the boxing fags probably want you to do:

>Semi-squared stance in front of bag
>Hook the thing as hard you can
>Twerk Your hips
>Drive Your hand through

Goodbye wrists.

These people know nothing. It is very logical what you have to do. If you're punching a face you need to hit the front of the bag, scoop it. Like a jaw. These are Complete lightwheights. You should maximize Your distance, these people are the same stupid boxers we get in on MMA who think they can get in Close and punch behind the ear With a disguised palm strike. Maximize Your distance for Your hook and straights. They won't ever get Close enough to pull that shit. The only shot you need to hit the bag like that for is the big body shot on the right side of the opponent, in the ribs, right under the line of the latisimus dorsi. And even then you need to step in after Your cross.

Anyways, I really hope you grow up, git gud, become a better man. Understand that boxing is for idiots and start doing MMA.
>>
>>1720152
You simply stop the bag using elbows, knees, kicks or simply another punch, jab out and get right back into it.
>>
>>1720672
Thanks for the tips, ass bitch. I'm sure you know better than people who train for real.
>>
>>1720675
I can totally imagine you punching an inch away from the heavy bag with your T-Rex arms
And then you go shitpost on the adrenaline high
>>
>>1720692
The rules of gravity still applies to Your bag, your imagination doesn't change the fact that your boxing gym is just another room. You're just a delusional fag who thinks he does a martial art, when Gene Lebelle fucked boxing up way back in the sixtees using nothing but judo. How much suck does your sport contain? I've never seen a judoka do that in MMA, boxing must be the lamest of all martial arts.

>>1721108
I get my range on that bag, anything else you can do better With different Methods. If you want to be more explosive you can lift wheights, if you want better technique you can shadow Box in front of the Mirror.

Seriously, the only thing a bag can give you is using your Reach better. Most People do bag to much and get really Heavy during sparring. Shadowboxing is better in almost every way, but With a bag you can learn to use the distance, stepping in and out of range. Yet, you stupid n00bs dare to suggest that you don't hook by scooping the front of the bag.

If you know your range you can just take a small adjustment step back and go right back in and punish. This is probably the best trick in all of boxing, name one better trick than taking a short step back and bursting in With a cross or a one-two, I've seen my fair share or matches and that is the one thing that Works across the entire Board.

And being one inch away from the bag is actually a good thing. That distance is uncomfortable, and you've got to know your mark. So there you can also get some use from the bag.

The bag is a tool. It is about git gud, not pretending to be rocky.

It is very usefull, imagine a real taekwondo fighter facing off against any style, kicking to the head is a common way to knock someone out. But by learning the movement of a eogol magki, the taekwondo practitioner has a offencive defence. Imagine hitting the soft spot on the ankle into the elbow. It is a sure way to end the fight, without even a single kick or punch.

But you can't do that during sparring, because nobody would want to fight someone like that. Taekwondo, when it is like the patterns, is just to effective to be used for anything else than self-defence.
>>
>>1721711
Taekwondo was only effective in the early days when they fought with no rules.

His pants says WTF, world taekwondo federation. He beat a seasoned sambo grappler fair and square. Taekwondo is a true martial art! But look at the blood, who would want to send their kid into that? The violent art of taekwondo is not entertainment.

See it's pseudoscientific rambling and bullshit like that which makes everyone think the martial autists on this board are retarded. So what you meant to say is
>you should train on a dummy to get good technical habits
Which is wrong because any seasoned grappler will tell you that any move that you think you can hit without resistance or against a fucking non human in a formulaic and pre-ordained pattern does not translate well when someone is fighting back. You're not going to hit they shit on me just because you did it calm and collected several times before. Aside from perhaps the most juvenile and basic of practitioners, like little children, a trainee's drill session should be performed with intensity and motion.

Yeah, you don't know what you're talking about. You can do all kinds of techniques on a dummy, I have one for throws and one for submissions, With articulated hands and feet. I can do all kinds of moves on these, you should learn some real grappling you cuck. What kind of Limited system do you Train? Thinly vieled gay lovemaking called Greco-roman wrestling, invented by the biggest boy-lovers in history? Hahaha homo. You're gay and bottom. Any ugly guy looking Your way and you would totally do him.

>>1724371
Wrong again. I learn the attacks on the dummy, then I defend during class. The one thing I can't get from a dummy that I miss the most is the defense. How to roll out, but I can do that all of the class, while the other ones have to learn to do the techniques as well.

Also, a serios seasoned grappler would say that the basics is a huge deal. A partner isn't gonna sit still and let you do a hundred repetitions of omoplata or kimura, just so that you can get a good basic. You need to stop taking advice from Your gay friend, he just wants to pound Your ass, mr shitdicked McSoaryhole.

Also, you only have a partner for that much. Like two days a week for two hours that get smooshed away by warm up, strenght drills and all kinds of other shit. People spend ten years on getting that black belt in BJJ, they are being completely cucked out of Money.

Get smart and listen to based MMA guy.

And by left leg to do you mean set up back kicks, because you will telegraph way too much without a great setup/combo.

Unless you meant anchoring back foot for front kicks with right.

The first thing you said about your stance kind of contradicts the second thing you said unless you mean back leg kicks or you simply mixed up right and left in the first line.

Because they're joke.Wahy?
1) The rules set of TKD are made to have flashy fights, not actual fights.
2) The curriculum ( techniques, teaching methods, goals, structures of techniques between them,....) is a joke.
3) There isn't a useful skill or curriculum part in TKD that cannot be found in another martial art and done better in this given ma.
This is why tkd is looked down.
The style vs. style is bullshit. It's not valid anymore since the early 2000's

But, seriously, once in a while gorging yourself in delicious food, specially when is so important for your entire fucking family, isn't going to ruin your MA training. Yeah, it may fuck your epic gains for that day, but MA are more about muscle memory and reflexes, not so much about muscle building. Is nice to break noses with a straight punch, but is much better to break joints with a trained lock.

You don't even train so it's useless to try to explain how your reflex and muscle memory are correlated to what you eat.

dude my mma fight is next saturday and i just realized that my scale is broken 3 days ago so instead of an easy 1 kg i have to shed off 5 kg in 6 days. Eating anything other than a bit of lean meat/fish and veggies means i cannot compete

It's worse than that. I suggest youu barely eat at all. At least not the two first days.

the plan is to eat JUST a bit today (sunday), monday, tuesday, wednesday, then see how my weight is and depending on that start fasting on thursday/friday Also only little water on thursday and friday and friday night is sauna time, where im hoping to be able to sweat off 2 kg's

what does really suck though is that the shitty promoter of the show decided to change the weigh ins from friday to the day of the actual fight, so i will only have some hours to regenerate, if at all.

I'd consider stepping off rather than fighting dehydrated, there's a good reason why fighters are typically given at least 24 hours to rehydrate.

It was exactly what everyone knew was going to happen and were saying was going to happen since about day 1. It was funny but not that funny because it was the most predictable thing, but really most of the reactions on /sp/ were actually focused on /asp/ shitposting itself it death about it.

It was a circus matchup, laughs were had, the guy with no chances lost like everyone knew he would. It's done, time to move on, the card itself had the first heavyweight title defense since 2013 and a coked out hack of a trainer screaming at a heavyweight and getting punted for it.

It's like olympic fencing as in not real combat.

Also military manuals writen by certain Chinese generals about Korean martial arts describe them as good exercises and a way to get agile but otherwise useless in practical combat as everyone is armed.
The main principle of TKD is to run away when you can and only make a stand when you need to using ordinary boxing techniques to dish out the pain and kicking as a way to keep the assaulter at distance while looking for an opportunity to run or hit him.

That's literally every single kid course.
I teach kids and got a little angry at my teacher because he made them do fuck-all, he said everyone does this, then with time you realize they have a 10 minute attention span and that they get bored in 5 minutes, and would do anything as long as you didn't decide it. The biggest factor though is that they're clearly unhappy, they don't want to do the same thing for 20 minutes, it shows that they enjoy what they do when you're lax. If you're an edgelord who thinks it's good that they don't enjoy it there's no point in allowing kids

Most people suck at fighting, so be it Krav Maga, Western Boxing, Muay Thai, Kickboixng in general, Karate, Kung Fu, Sanda/Sanshou, Judo, Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or whatever the fuck else, Kajukenbo; if you train in a martial art, do some combination of drills, technique work, and sparring, even if it's just a tiny bit of sparring, for a month, you will be a good fighter compared to most people on "the streets."
If you stick with some martial art, any martial art, for a whole year, you will be one of the best damn fighters out there.

If you do MMA for 2 years, you will be a god of gods in the streets.
Given that it's only hand to hand combat, anyway.

Krav Maga is pretty hit and miss, but they actually train for unarmed vs knife, unarmed vs, gun, etcetera.

Filipino martial arts, which includes Kali, Escrima, and Arnis, are respected on /asp/ for their weapons training, which may include unarmed vs weapons.

Krav Maga is going to be 'eeehh' at best, if you actually treat it like a martial art. It is however a decent entry into SOF style military hand to hand systems, letting you spar using similar techniques.

You just have to ditch the (((Cult))) mentality behind it, seeing as it is to those SOF style combat systems what crossfit is to powerlifting, only to a slightly lesser degree.

Guys, I've been doing BJJ for 10 years and just got my black belt 6 months ago.

I'm finished with school and moving back to my hometown to start my new job, but the only BJJ gym is ran by a brown belt.

What's the protocol on me attending? I don't want to teach classes, but nobody in the gym really knows who I am so do you think I could get away with wearing a white belt?

>>
>>1752831
You probably could, there's even confirmed reports of higher belts entering white belt tournaments for keks. It'd be a dick move, though, and people would realize right quick that you're not a noob which'd likely mean they get pissed at you and you burn bridges with the one BJJ gym in your hometown.

Just go to a class or two, admit you've some experience, talk to the guy running the thing and see what's up. Maybe he only has a brown belt but is better than you, maybe you start getting into helping him run the class and you wind up exploring a potential side job as a BJJ teacher. It's not for everyone, but teaching people can be really fulfilling. Imagine yourself with a whole group of people you taught how to kick ass in your hometown, man.

If you were past blue belt you'd never want to wear a white belt again. Go back to brown is an easy feelling to release the pressure from having a bullseye on the back, but never lower than brown. If you were a bb, you'd know why.

The more important question is your belt lineage vs the gym you are going to.
Judoka here, and there are a couple of things in my experience that may help you.
1. I'm a card carrying nikyu in judo, and when I enter ibjjf sanctioned tourneys, I have to wear and compete in blue because they recognize my belt. In other tournaments, I am not 'recognized' so I have to compete in white division.
As a result, I go to open mats and my local bjj gym with a white belt because I don't have a recognized rank there.
So, basically, if your rank is going to be recognized within his bjj organization, then roll with black, and if it isn't recognized, roll with white.

The other part, is what COACHING certifications do you have vs him? I'm a Judo instructor, and I'm certified USA Judo Coach and Certified Ref, and generally speaking, (as far as the sanctioning bodies are concerned) even if a bb came into my dojo, the bb would have to defer to me in regards to the class instruction because being a competitor and being a teacher are two completely different skill sets.
Answer those questions and I can give more input, but in general you don't want your bb to be a disruption to an existing class that causes people to start disrespecting the instruction given by the brown belt. So, don't be a dick, and don't try and contradict the instructor and you will be a welcome asset to the dojo.

I'm thinking of starting either BJJ or muay thai or kickboxing. I currently just lift weights and am starting to find training for training's sake to get a bit dull.

This is the best reviewed BJJ/Kickboxing school in my town. Could someone check out their website for me and tell me if it looks legit or not? I don't want to be stuck with a bunch of kids or get trapped in those "cardio kickboxing" classes and shit.

Does it look like a good place to train? Any immediate red flags?

I'm glad /asp/ has got an actual martial art general, or at least new to me

I've been going to a kickboxing/general self-defence class for a while, but consider myself still a newbie. My question is:
Why can't I do a round-house?
I cannot seem to get the spin correct. Any tips? Or do I need to git gud? I'm shit with kicks desu, but I do this with a mate and I find it is good for general fitness, so while I'd like to, I'm not switching to boxing any time soon.

tl;dr I am a faggot

Now some people may object, but raising your knee sideways first is done to hit with the ball of your foot, it's just an angled front kick. If instead you hit with the instep, the foot should draw a (more or less) straight line from the starting point to the target (like all kicks).

Just swinging you leg up isn't a round house.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NySUbGtrdg
>>
>>1760774
That kick is retarded and comes from shotokan karate. In karate there used to be no "round house" kicks with the instep, it was developed in shotokan to hurt less during sparring.
The rising of the leg is to position it to then do a "front kick" but horizontally.

If you're not going to do an "horizontal front kick", the muay thai version is the proper manner
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGCmHcW1E0s

The purpose of the first version is to avoid the guard, you can do an hybrid or even inward
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyGJ-UMZGiA and https://youtu.be/IyGJ-UMZGiA?t=2m7s

The purpose of the instep version is to do as much damage as possible
>>
>>1760774
But people do use the version you posted (to have a bigger surface area, or because the ball is weaker, I don't know), without realizing that they could just do what muay thai does instead and have better results.
>>
>>1760796
The first version you showed can generate power and with proper timing can be devastating, but the recovery leaves them vulnerable and if their opponent clinches they can get slammed.
In your second video I would just use different names to the techniques he shows, but that's just semantics. I still wouldn't consider it a roundhouse, as >>1760584 was inquiring about.

>>1760826
I'm not a fan of the kick myself, but it's still a useful tool. A practiced roundhouse can be one of the quickest kicks, because the leg is just transmitting what was generated in the hips, instead of also engaging the lower leg (except balding the foot or pulling toes back).
>>
>>1760851
Not saying they're roundhouses, there's just the same reasoning behind them
>A practiced roundhouse can be one of the quickest kicks
Sure, but by not making the trajectory straight, it loses power
Honestly I was more sperging out about pic related, which is both slower since it travels more distance and weaker since it's not direct

How do I stop being so shit at muay thai? It's just depressing me every time I go
>keep leaning forward on my punches
>still haven't gotten a good stance down
>footwork is shit
>keep putting all my weight on my front leg
And there's probably countless other things I'm doing wrong that I haven't been told yet

Keep training, it'll stick in some way. How long have you been at it anyway?

>>1761547

Nigga that's way too early to say you're shit, you've barely even started and this crap takes time. Stick with it, practice, listen to your coaches, you'll get there. Unless "there" is wanting to be the next Saenchai or whatever other amazingly good muay thai fighter you prefer, then you might have to lower your expectations some.

Dude as anon just said, you've been training a month and a half! Relax! Also talk to your instructor about some of the more nuanced issues ur having because he or she will be able to much more effectively help you than anyone over an image board

Coaching cert only means you get to sit on the chair on the side when your player is competing. You can't even have a club if you do not have a dan rank
>>
>>1752858
>there's even confirmed reports of higher belts entering white belt tournaments for keks
I was denied a promotion because I lost to someone in a white belt tournament, but then my coach researched the person I lost to and saw he has been competing in and winning white belt tournaments for at least the past 3 years
so it was given to me after discovering that
>>
>>1761716
Dunno how old you are but the advice is the same anyway: stick with it, talk to your coaches, pick their brain and listen to them and polish your game, maybe see if you can get some light sparring in to apply what you're learning in a fight-like environment once you hit an acceptable level and be adamant that you'd at least like to get something done in amateur competitions. It'll come sooner or later.

How the hell can that guy go on doing that shit?

guess nobody bothered to fact check. I'm going to compete again in october though so if he's there I'm going to absolutely out him
I'm not going to have a cheater stand between me and a gold medal

I made it on the podium last time but he stopped me from winning the whole time
>>
>>1761911
Of course you can have a club. The Dan is only needed for promotions to be recognized.

Even if you don't get the Dan blessing the promotion might be forced to be recognized because of the batsugun rules.

You don't need a paper to train.

Alright guys, help me out. I finally got /fit/ and now I want to train. My goal is mma, but I am green as fuck, never trained anything before. Should I try my luck in an mma gym, or do some bjj and striking first?

mma gym, there is such a thing as a beginner class

You'll get a bunch of bad habits from doing bjj and striking first instead of learning the MMA basics of striking and grappling, and the basics of mixing striking and grappling.

http://www.kyokushinireland.com/dojo-etiquette.html

So does this place look like a mcdojo? I like the japanese martial arts but honestly looking at their etiquette rules I'm worried it'd be a bit spergy.

I mean, maybe it'll be alright, my judo place I go to has similar rules but they don't half try to make it some super strict thing, the dojo is really more of a 'Don't be a cunt' place in that regard.
>>
>>1738676
If this is your hobby anon and not your career you need to understand family is more important. Especially since you only get two grandmothers, and that's if you're lucky.

Honestly I'd recommend you call your grandmother and apologise to her, you may well have to explain again why you did it but next time man the fuck up and appreciate what you have, she's not going to live forever
>>
>>1765647
>When entering or leaving the Dojo, stand in the doorway, face the front, bow and say "OSU". This represents a mark or respect for the Dojo and the people in it.
People payed respect to the teacher's house since dojos often used to be inside the teacher's property, it makes no sense to pay respect to a basketball gym
>Students should do their best to be on time for class
Sure
>If late for training, kneel at the side of the class towards the back, facing away in SEIZA
Autism
>However if a higher grade asks you for kumite you must not decline
>You should always stand in FUDO DACHI when awaiting the next command
Heil
>During the break: Do some training
That's not a break

They just seem to be general guidelines, each gym will probably have its own take on them anyway

MMA is literally BJJ and striking anyway. Most good gyms train the two arts in isolation, and then have a few classes that involve mixing the two. Just go to the right gym and you'll understand. Once you fall in love with it, you'll be doing classes so frequently that you won't understand why you ever asked this question. Get in there anon!

actually i managed to loose 5kg in a week without lowering my water intake at all, so im just gonna be not drinking from now till tomorrows weighing in and then ill drink 250ml of coconut water every 20 min. Hope its enough to fully recover and i hope that this weight cut was worth it in the end. Shit was brutal, especially since im working nightshifts at a mercedes factory right now screwing in screws into the cars, part of the production line. Felt like passing out a couple of times, zero calorie energy drinks and gums are what brought me through the nightshifts.

pic related, the carbs i bought so i can eat like a fatass on sunday after my fight

what the fuck are you even doing

Boxing tends to be fairly safe for avoiding mcdojos.

I only know mcdojo red flags.

The throws looked great, but his mount was horrible. The Kyokushin guy kept his knees high, so he could've just hooked them and controlled the mount easily. He also didn't attack the arms from top once, while not really attacking the neck either.

I want to start muay thai but I want to make sure I go to a good gym. There's one that I've been looking at and it has sparring but it's light and controlled, is that ok?

Seems legit. They claim to train fighters, and there's little to no bullshit like grandmaster or top elite military officer, or the 2deadly4u meme.

holy shit, what a load of fake wrestling on this board.

so, asuming all of you do some kind of martial art. how do you deal with your injuries? I want to go back to muay thai, but my back does not let me, I have serious trouble with contractures, started doing yoga for it.

I've seen clavicle injuries at my dojo and they have all been from people that stiffen while being uke.
Lay off the takedowns, drill your shoulder rolls and concentrate on newaza for a while.

Nope. You could read into theory and watch material demonstrating proper application and whatnot but that's always just a supplement for training properly with someone who knows what they're doing and will correct your mistakes. Training on your own just runs the risk of you turning bad form into a habit.

No idea, depends on the area, but typically boxing gyms tend to be quite cheap and are less likely to be a McDojo than something promoting karate and the like.

It depends on the injury. I hurt my knee and had to leave it for several months because I could barely walk at all. However, another guy on my same group broke his leg, and he keep training at home some arms and punching exercises. I think it wasn't the best idea, but when he came back, he was someone to fear when practicing boxing.

Boxing usually only requires some gloves and some other guy willing to spar, besides a competent instructor who knows his shit and is wiling to teach both of you.

Ju Jitsu

My university offers a sports course which is just called "ju jitsu".

From what I could gather online and from the description it's more self defense oriented whereas Brazlian Jiu Jitsu (for example) is more about competition. Can anyone tell me what I'm in for and what to look out for?
I did a Krav Maga course once and it was a total McDojo don't want this to happen this time.

It's probably the same thing. Do you know the name of the instructor? If he has a lineage then it can be verified to be legitimate or illegitimate
