>>174608One of the freshmen at Cal Baptist went to high school with me last year, granted I go to one of the best schools in the country for wrestling but still cool to see him go up against some big boys
>>186881Thank you, this looks very thorough and inspires flashbacks to wrestling practice.
>>179843>Is it true Amerimutts have no wrestling for adults and it's all in high school or collegiatePretty muxh, but the Only exception is if your mma (or just bjj) gym has someone on staff who wrestled in high school and college and specifically offers wrestling classes. Out of the 10 gyms in my city, only one offers actual wrestling classes

Does anyone know how the draw weight is measured on a yumi? I know draw weights are usually measured at a standard 28in, but kyudo seems to do nothing like the rest of the world, so at what length do they measure it?
New NU just dropped. Confirmed that he lurks and probably shits on anons here.

There's been some drama recently with Sanlida using youtube content creators' content without permission. I don't understand how people didn't see it coming before, considering it's a chinese company, and they've never been known to grasp the concept of intellectual property.
got a 100lbs safari bow. anyone here bear hunt?
I am planning on visiting an MMA gym soon. Being honest, I am scared as fuck. I am a long time sufferer of imposter syndrome and I feel like there's no way a physically awkward nerd like me can do this without embarrassing myself badly but I gotta try. My gf is constantly pestering me about having kids and deep down I feel like "how can I be a father if I can't even protect my family from other dudes?". That's basically my biggest motivation. I was wondering if you guys would be ok with me blogposting my progress here somewhere as I am also socially awkward(literally diagnosed with autism) and it's kinda easier to talk online about stuff like this than it is irl. Any beginners tips? Is there a general I should redirect my posts too? Btw I am a Vegeta chad(undefeated against Goku)
>>193968For shitposting, not much else
>>193973Thats all this board is. This place is unironically worse than /pol/ or /b/
Just go, your body will eventually adapt to what's required.Also try out various schools, there is more than just MMA.
>>193806>american freestyle/boxing/kickboxingLol you're a karate dork. And not even one of the good ones.
>>193505Your mind is in the right place anon. Deep down everyone has some level of imposter syndrome, just keep moving and doing your thing. If you ever feel unmotivated remember that motivation is the fuel of the week, the strong thrive on discipline. Go exercise a bit, work on your cardio and flexibility, specially if you hear any pops or anything weird. Don't be too picky about the gym you are going to, at first, go to the nearest one, get some experience, and if with time you want to experience other stuff or go to a more hardcore gym do it. And yes, do post your progress, I believe it will motivate other anons to do the same. Just remember this is a slow thread so keep using the same one for as long as possible.>Any beginners tips?Fighting for me is about two things: control and creativity. Control as in breathing control, stamina control, distance control, pain control, body control, etc. Most of these things you can learn and practice before even fighting. Muscle memory also, that is half of the game to almost any physical endeavor. Follow your coaches instructions, don't worry about speed, don't worry about energy, focus on your form and repeat, repeat, repeat. Lastly, when you gain confidence and learn the basics and its forms, don't be afraid to try new techniques, just don't get hurt.Good luck anon.
As a small but mighty board, /xs/ has their own Soccer (not an extreme sport, I know,) team that fights other boards. This is done by making a computer play pro evolution soccer. Most recently, our former boardmates over at /pw/ won. Our roster is largely unchanged from the early days of the board: so I'm putting it up here for people to give feedback on. If there is a meme or shitpost you like from your threads (especially you guys, fight bros,) please hit me with it and what you think no longer represents the board. This is all autistic as fuck, I know.

5'7 guy here. Gimme the best martial arts to effectively beat someone twice my size, if they have little to no experience.
>>194449Nice attempt at trying to blackpill me. I VILL beat Chad. I VILL smash stacy's tight pussy.
>>194244This. 3 years ago a BJJ black belt got shot and killed in a club in Brazil by an off-duty cop (go figure) and I remembered all the YouTube MMA influencers releasing videos discussing how firearms should be illegal and banned since they're so unfair. 'The Fight Bible' did a 15 minute long video just bitching and moaning about how overpowered firearms are.

Why do boxers have so much more fights than mma guys?
Because boxing is an open field unlike MMA which works in closed promotions.Once you arrive in the UFC or Bellator or whatever, you get matched up with the right guys and can quickly get a shot at the rankings if you keep winning.Meanwhile in boxing you have to make a name for yourself by having a good record, which includes a lot of cans to start.Also, back in the days boxers used to fight way more often because they didn't know abou CTE and shit,current top boxers also only fight 1 to 3 times a year.Also in MMA there are more potential injuries.
>>195485And why does boxing not have greedy promotions?
>>195485They didn't know getting your face bashed in for 10 rounds was bad. The fighters weren't the only ones with CTE
>>195529Try 110 roundshttps://sportsbrief.com/boxing/53054-what-longest-boxing-match-how-rounds/
>>195396MMA is far more destructive to the body. Boxing is more dangerous to the brain, but you don't get leg kicked and elbowed.Just look at the faces of boxers and MMA fighters after their fights.
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.
>>195480>tiny skilled guy beats big guy with shit skills>bjj isn’t effective Fascinating logic
>>195514the big guy had bjj skills, DJ was a generalist with a highschool level wrestling baseif that's enough of an X factor to overcome such a massive size difference it shows BJJ is worthlessit shows you're better off being a terminal manlet that can wrestle than a giant with BJJ
>>195448How are fatfags so good at mental gymnastics?
>>195528It's the only gymnastics they're capable of
>>195448>There's a 0% chance that Johnson actually beat this dudeNormally yes but people like Johnson are 1 in a milion.

Looking to start Judo pretty soon, but I have a major concern - not worried about bodily injuries as I know that sort of thing is expected in full contact martial arts. But how common are head/brain injuries, even if they are light? I’m talking concussions or any significant bumps to the head.Anyone have any experience of this, or know how common head injuries are in Judo?t. Physicist, need my brain for work
>>193965Yet if everyone thought like you no one would let anyone do anything because of muh dangerous
>>1936472 years judoka. Ironically judo is the only thing that hasn't given me a concussion. (I had 3 prior to starting judo from other sports and skateboarding.) You hit your head every once in a while but not as hard as you'd think. Just a little bump here and there. Worst I ever got was a black eye. The real concern with judo is the MANY other injuries you inevitably accumulate. People regularly tear tendons, break bones, get cut or scraped, etc. in my club. I've busted my knee and arm a million times. You'll get choked so hard that you won't be able to swallow right for a week after. But this, to me, is part of the fun. There's no excitement in doing something if it's totally risk free. My advice here is that judo is an exercise not only of the body, but of the heart--you learn to tolerate pain, to stop worrying about "a study said [x]!", to check your ego, and eventually start to deeply enjoy fighting. I used to be afraid of sparring-- now it is the highlight of my day. The other thing people don't tell you is that judo actually helps you learn how to prevent concussions by learning how to fall properly. My sparring partner got hit by a car and only saved his head from hitting the ground by falling like we do in judo.
One of the guys at my Judo club has been practicing since the 1960's.He told me he never got injured with Judo but always gets injured when he does some other sport.
>>193647Very low. Two of the first things you learn is Judo is how to fall safely and how to do a move in a way your opponent can fall safely. Unless you constantly compete and do crazy acrobatics without breaking your fall, you most likely won't suffer any major injury, to your body or head.
>>195136>You'll get choked so hard that you won't be able to swallow right for a week after. But this, to me, is part of the fun. There's no excitement in doing something if it's totally risk free.Find a better club, retard
What are the best nutrients/supplements for bonemaxxing?>bone composition>precursors to bone creation and repair>hormones that give denser bones>things that boost those hormonesUnbreakable bones are useful for extreme sports, so any help is appreciated.
>>195444From the linked study.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5621629/>Measures of eBMD (bone mineral density) derived from ultrasound are highly heritable (in the order of 50% to 80%), are independently associated with fracture risk, and are moderately correlated with DXA (scan) derived BMD at the hip and spine (r = 0.4 to 0.6)So dna results account for 50% of density.
>>195444i have nebula also i think its broken cuz i have a lot of stuff that is 100 percentile and 0 percentile also but its not statistically possible
>>195495I cherry picked those ones.
Research Botox in water. Great source of boron and increases bone density. Take tamarind, it increases the amount of fluoride leaving body, prevents it from being absorbed, and helps keep minerals like magnesium and zinc stay in system, increasing bone density.Get wooden pole and firmly wack your entire body before bed will help.Take empower supplement
>>195532>Borox*Stupid fucking tablet autocorrects
Seems like some prefer to risk missing weight than lose fat.Also why do fat fighters often win against taller and leaner fighters?
>>195123>Why are some fighters so fat?Because they're too lazy and undisciplined to not be fat anymore.>Also why do fat fighters often win against taller and leaner fighters?They usually don't (outside of sumo)
>>195123Because they eat a lot.body isn't everything. Fighting involves skill too you know.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNw2PqrQBv0
>>195414I want to make a graph like this to show weight advantage at heavyweight, but idk how to make one.

What was Overeem trying to do?
>>194934Not get KO'dIt didn't really work for him
>>194934without steroids overeem is not much of a fighter
>>194934>overeem triesto over hand>sees ngannou hand cocked>duck back to other side, trying to over hand again on the way there>get hooked
>>195194this to be honest, he was never known to be a good or even decent fighter only to be really juiced up
>>195484>>195194Overeem is actually one of the more skilled heavyweight mma fighter ever, he still had a lot of success as econoreem.This is most clearly seen at the end of his career where he triumphed over far more young and by that point more athletic guys like Walt Harris, Augusto Sekai and Sergei Pavlovitch.Even in one of his few truly one sided loss where he didn't just get caught against Blaydes, he still did some interesting submissions attempts that 90% of heavyweight would never think to try. You don't get a 47-19 reccord after fighting for 22 years without some skill, also the highest striking accuracy in UFC history.
>>194576I did a few obstacle races. One was 6 miles and was up and down a ski resort in the spring time. It was was cold wet and crowded. Was kinda expensive and I had to travel for it. Was fun but you can run for free.
>>194576do it with a group otherwise just do some variation of a marathon
>>194803Wait a second, people actually pay money to run through mud and water?
>>195467They kind of trick you with the marketing like its going to be lots more obstacles and also a physical challenge but it's not. You can see how dumpy the girls in the photo are and know it's easy
Whoever figured out how to mass market horseshit team building work retreat nonsense deserves every shekel they get.
Asking for a dwarf friend, what kinda of risks and injuries are there. Would 6 months of training be good enough?
>>195390People think little people would hit like children but in reality that is a full grown adult condensed into a 1/3 sized body. This means despite how they look those blows are packing grown man power and they only can withstand it due to the density of their skulls. Your friend shouldn't consider fighting another midget until he has at least 2-3 years proper experience and has sparred many times with regular sized people.
