fweindly weminderYOU ARE NOT MONGOLIAN, STOP TRYING TO THROW YOUR KNEE AND THIGH IN BETWEEN MY LEGS TO TRY AND LIFT ME UP FOR YOUR "YAGURA NAGE" YOU'RE JUST KNEEING ME IN THE BALLS
>>197161>fweindly weminderYou deserve it. If I find you on the mats I'm going to knee you in the balls on purpose for every throw in an effort to make sure you don't reproduce.
>>197167You will never be Mongolian. You have no steppe, you have no ancestral warlord bloodline, you have no wrestling clothes that make you look like a pirate.
>>197161>YOU ARE NOT MONGOLIAN>"YAGURA NAGE" Yagura nage is Japanese and originally came from sumo.
>>197161No, i won't.
(Japanese Kickboxing)
>>192718If you want to keep delving, I can also recommend KNOCK OUThttps://youtube.com/@KNOCKOUT_KBThey have some absolutely kino fights as well. One of their more popular guys is Ryusei who is very fun if you like cool technique combined with just being a little retarded sometimes.
Is there a Japanese kickboxing league? Or is 'Japanese kickboxing' just about the style of fighting of Japanese fighters?
>>197182Japanese Kickboxing refers to the sport that was created in 1966 after exposure to Muay Thai and combining it with Karate & Kenpo with Western boxing. It's why in the 60's and 70's you saw Japanese kickboxers (many of them were ex-karateka) do stuff like spinning hook kicks and jumping kicks while simultaneously throwing hard cut kicks to thighs and calves, clinching with elbows and knees. The Japanese incorporated the Southeast Asian style of full torque and twist of hips to generate power instead of chambering kicks (which they normally did for control). As for Japanese Kickboxing, these are the major organizations:New Japan Kickboxing Federation. It allows all the arsenal of Muay Thai techniques but with different scoring criteria as mentioned here >>192508. The rounds are the same as Muay Thai and the timing. https://www.youtube.com/user/njkfjapanThen there's Shin Nihon Kickboxing Association. They're the other big Kickboxing organization and NJKF's rival. They have similar scoring criteria but they only have 3 rounds instead of 5 from the last I heard. RISE and K-1 Japan that >>192421 mentioned are other venues. There was also Krush which used to be a feeder system for Japanese kickboxers to go into the major leagues.
Muay Thai number one

Guys, I had some semi hard sparring the other day at the mma gym (I subscribed a few weeks ago after years without any practice of martial arts), and got some lasting headaches the following days.I looked it up online and read that:- some people have headaches from sheer stress- some people have thin craniums- some people have very tense shoulders and neck (my case) and that be a cause of such headachesAny insight and advice about that appreciated, I'd love to keep training and maybe compete

>>197122>average gger mag holds 30 bb's>cyma mag for less than quarter of the cost holds 130 and weights nothingI dunno, it is relevant when you play in areas with thick foliage desu. Some people want cool blowback without 30 rounds per mag and constant reloading bb's into said mag and gas. EBB's unfortunately suck.
>>197147>"cool blowback"Kys, dumb frognigger. Stay away from GBBRs
>>197147>want blowback cuz realism>don't want 30-round realistic magsThese people don't want rifles. They want mini machine guns.
>>197159>hurr people don't want rifles they want machine gunsyou do realize almost everyone in airsoft uses midcaps in their power drills in regular weekend games, right? Capacity is a cope for bb ballistics being awful, and there is nothing wrong with that. >want recoil cuz realismwant recoil cuz fun, there is no airshit providing realistic recoil.
>>197145Don't know if they even still sell Nimh batteries but you want to avoid those in the cold. Go for Lipo/Life/Lion with a smart charger.7.2v is a bit slow performance wise but 11.1v will burn your trigger contacts over time if you don't install a mosfet.

>>196865yeah it'll fit if you fold down the seats. I used to do that with my 8th gen civic si coupe when I still had it. It was a massive pain in the ass so I just installed a trailer hitch on that car and then got a hitch mounted carrier.Just get a seasucker. Yes, they actually work and they won't fall off randomly.>>196859I went full internal with my road bike and it was a fucking pain in the ass. I'm thankful I went with Shimano Di2 so I only had to route the horrible brake hoses. I was so fucking mad building this bike but holy fuck does it ride so fucking good that I'm willing to put up with another full internal build. Just not ever, EVER for a mountain bike. Those need more frequent maintenance.
fuck I hate dealing with drivetrains. I'm switching to unicycles
>>196978>fuck I hate dealing with drivetrains.Getting T type AXS might solve your headache. Microadjuat is the whole reason I'd love to have it, hassle free setup
>>196985You see that reddit post where a guys transmission kept thinking he had 13 gears
I'm kill. Most D+ I've ever done in a ride. Did loops on the mountain, 8 descents and 7 climbs. I only made it as I took a redbull can, chocolate, pink powder on the water bottle and a big breakfast. Also finally discovered the hidden trail, steep, fast, loamy and janky. I'm gonna voluteer for the next trail building session as I know there's another one with a huge stone slab followed by a big drop, which was the one I expected.
>this kills the grappler
>>196565yeah but wrestling someone makes u win
I got 4 years of Muay Thai experience and 1 amateur fight. My only grappling experience is 2 weeks of training take down defense with my friend who does BJJ,(He is brown belt) I plan to compete in an amateur MMA tournament. Do I have a chance of winning my fight? I've seen the striking level of the guys who compete there and its absolute dogshit.
>>197025Cage size usually heavily favors grappling at the amateur level. If it's a ring, it'll depend a lot on how reset heavy your referee is. All that said, if you're not in an area known for its competitive wrestling, you'll probably be fine.
>>196569>>196573The grappling to pro wrestling pipeline was simply guys wanting to keep the money coming in without fucking their bodies up so bad without realizing faggots would overtake the sport (""sport"")
>>196573Real matches took very long and the performers were constantly injured, so they decided to start working the matches to make it easier for themselves and make the matches more exciting to watch, which brought in more money.From there it quickly snowballed into the absurdity that is today's pro wrestling

>>197101right, so i guess a thinner soul plateand smaller wheels would help.it's physically impossible to get the frame and soul to touch the ground without the wheels also touching on my current setup.
>>197126What's your current setup?
>>197151aeons, 60 flat.
What's a good outdoor setting to practice basic drills without dealing with too many people? Pretty soon the local courts and parks are going to be flooded with kids during the day.
>>197163I go somewhere with a smooth empty parking lot. On weekends I'll go to basketball courts at schools. Usually this is in wealthy hard to reach areas.
Insecure 5'9" dude here. If you could only pick one martial art as a manlet for self-defense on da streetz (like a rando walks up and wants to beat the shit out of you) what would it be? The only gym near me offers either Muay Thai or BJJ
>>196950That's a non-answer, you're not allowed to resort to lethal force over fist fights
>>196917If you're young muay thai, old bjj.
>>196963You can learn kickboxing and boxing at any age really. Grappling is Hella worse for your spine etc
>>196955>you're not allowed to resort to lethal force over fist fightsDepends entirely on the jurisdiction. >>196975>Grappling is Hella worse for your spine etcThere seem to be a fair number of old men doing judo.
>>196983>There seem to be a fair number of old men doing judoPersonally, I feel that getting thrown is often the least painful part of grappling when your partner isn't a retard and you know how to break a fall. In contrast, getting the life squeezed out of me in bottom half guard or nay pin always leaves me feeling like someone took a sledgehammer to my chest and back afterwards, and I'm hardly a geezer at 21
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu GeneralI only do it because it's trendy editionSmoothcomphttps://smoothcomp.comBelt Checkerhttps://www.beltchecker.comPrevious thread>>178342Thread question: What kind of amenities should a gym have?I think there should always be a bowl of oranges on the front desk for anyone to have
>>196834Yeah but leglocks, neck locks, spine locks, and wrist locks are also the most dangerous to practice by a newb. It's safer and easier to learn armlocks and chokes before you move onto that stuff.
>>197085Professionals regularly fuck up neck advise for patients they see in person. No one in this bisexual clothed frottage thread is going to be able to see through their wifi signal to tell you what's wrong.
>>197085all I can tell you is do exercises to give yourself strong traps such as shrugs and the cuban press, and stop doing jiujitsuI'm at the point in my life where I'm realizing there's no amount of jiujitsu that fits into it. I'm down from 5 days a week to 2. my necks gets extremely aggravated from even mild contact and I just don't have the ability to recover anymoreIt's degrading before my eyes
>>197104Why don't you do neck strengthening exercises
>>197125NTA, sometimes when the damage is done it's done and there's not much you can do about it after the fact, other than try to ease the pain and prevent it from getting worseMost injuries can be rehabilitated, but sometimes you're just SOL. Most often when it involves the spine
I know the japanese tourism and animation industry have a lot to thank toriyama for, but something underrated is how much the martial arts industry has to thank him forfact is it wouldn't be nearly as popular of a hobby as it is if this show never existed since it's the thing that inspired so many kids to get involvedso ITT we will discuss all things related to our training and self improvement and helping each otherexercises, training routines, diets, motivation, etc.work hard, study well, and eat and sleep plenty

holy fucking cringe
>>195407>he said on the martial arts board of the anime website
man I keep screwing up my diet, I just went out and got 2 donutsit's freakin 1:30 in the morning. I dont know why I do this.

What's your favorite martial arts movie?
>>192933>The Quest from JCVD is a personal favorite of mine.That movie doesn't get enough love. It's the best Street Fighter movie we'll ever get.
>>192493100% agree.Kung Fu is bullshit, but Jackie movies fights choreography and stunts are amazing
>>191883fpbp, watched that shit so many times as a kid.five deadly venoms, raging bull, kung fu hustle, clan of the white lotus, 8 diagram pole fighter, enter the dragon, crouching tiger hidden dragon, drunken master 2teenage mutant ninja turtles
Animated features ok? Kung Fu Panda is my shit. I basically am Po.
