Can't find a kickboxing school near me and I don't like muay thai. Would raining kyokushin + boxing give me more or less the same result?

>>264405
i'd say just go to the MT gym and maybe talk to your coach that you want to learn kickboxing (MT and KB are very interchangeable) or just take a kickboxing approach to your training (your combos, overall pace, etc.)

>>264405
Do you have MMA schools near you? They tend to have kickboxing programs. I’d train kyokushin if it was me.

any of y'all know how to effectively teep in an actual fight without shirts? whenever i try teeping, my opponent is just so goddamn slippery i cant do it effectively

>>264405
Most Muay Thai gyms are going to look a lot like a kickboxing gym, at least in the west. Chances are you will not be clinching or using elbows much. At my gym sweeping caught kicks is usually frowned upon (you just mark). Having sparred people from the kickboxing class I didn't notice any difference at all other than the clinch and that they seem to teep less.

Good post.
I might qualify "kickboxing" with "preferably muay thai".
And if you've got some more time, I'd recommend a _little_ bit of wrestling, enough to cover the fundamentals even if you won't become good enough to match an actual/practicing wrestler.
A real wrestler is exceedingly unlikely to be attacking anyone without good reason. No need to devote time for that possibility.
But if you're on the ground with a wrong 'un, you'll be a whole lot better off if you have some muscle memory in grappling.

does anyone here do downhill longboarding? or is that too niche for this community?

>>264562
That's all I like. Just cruising around is cool but I want to feel the wind on my face and have that little adrenaline rush as I accept that I'm going too fast to stop until the bottom. Nothing like a solid hill bomb to get the blood pumping.

Think something like this starter kit is worth the money? The bow itself is only ~$130-$150 compared to a little over $200 for https://www.amazon.com/Samick-Sage-Takedown-Recurve-Protection/dp/B093MVPQB4?th=1 I've got a pullup bar and I can go back to lifting my regular 40lb dumbbell to build upper body strength easily. Also I've got a yard for over 100ft to work with so I'll probably build a post with a big target and then I have basically unlimited practice time. Of course I want to work on form yeah I've lifted enough in the past to respect form lol

>>263522
Eh personally I wouldn't buy it since 50+ bucks seems a bit overpriced for those items alone but if you don't want to buy all of it separately and have the money to spend then sure, go for it. It's just that for 50+ dollars you could buy a lot more chink arrows which will do the job just fine, also
>I've got a yard for over 100ft to work with
I know it won't sound exciting but it's better to avoid starting off by shooting long distance or at least not doing so before you learn the basics, instead just focus on technique, release and overall form for the first few sessions
have fun

>>264519
>Eh personally I wouldn't buy it since 50+ bucks seems a bit overpriced for those items alone
That's fair. What type of items do you believe to be 'essential' then, as far as accessories go?
>>264519
>I know it won't sound exciting but it's better to avoid starting off by shooting long distance
Oh definitely. I was thinking out loud when I typed that. If I want to practice shooting then I can just go outside any time I want. I wouldn't need to drive to some archery range or wherever, y'know?

>>264569
In my opinion the only essential things would be an arrow rest for your bow, (I can't remember if my samick sage came with one or if I had to buy it separately) and a finger tab.
You will string slap your arm a few times at the beginning so if you want you can also get an arm guard but I never found them necessary because with a bow like this, as long as you shoot properly, you shouldn't hit your arm.
You definitely don't need a quiver especially since you'll be shooting in your yard you can just stick the arrows in the ground or behind your belt.
As for the target you can buy a portable one or just make one out of something like old carpets folded together or horsemats.

I currently shoot a 40 lb Blackfoot Penthalon longbow, but I have to admit it's a bit too heavy for longer sessions. I'm thinking about selling it and going down to 35 lb.
I'm considering trying a traditional recurve. Is there much of a difference between one-piece and takedown? Are the speed and power different?
Also any recommendation?

>>253846
Learn to break-fall and you kinda don't?

Honestly, I'm pretty new to BJJ so it's probably honeymoon phase but I did do kyokushin for 2 years-ish and I feel about the same. It just feels like a genuine respite from the workday. Everyone's there to learn and improve and we all want the same goal, but when you compare it to the workplace, the workplace is everyone's a fucking faggot and does passive aggressive shit all the damn time. It's just weird since while I really want to sock some people at work and I can't. The people at BJJ are some of the nicest people I've ever met and rolling the shit outta them to get them to tap (but like 99% of the time after a minute I'm tapping in) is just such a great feeling. It's like they say in a lot of game and shows. To really know someone's spirit you just gotta have some physical action. That gay? I mean whatever, it's true.

>we didn't do randori
like you didn't do it first time? that's normal you gotta make sure someone is 100% not going to fuckup their fall before you get them fighting.
but if the club/gym doesn't ever do randori it must suck a lot because imo the whole ruleset of judo is made to allow safe fighting
>>261947
I agree with this. the only real risk is tai-otoshi at the wrong angle. you can really fucking fly but if you tuck your chin and breakfall you'll be fine. Bjj guys seem to fuck their knees more than judo from what I've seen.

>>264675
Yeah seoi or drop seoi you can end up going over their head face first. Happened during speed drilling once and I def shat bricks in mid air. But luckily I didn't completely go head first. Someone got drop seoi'd face first and ended up with a bleeding nose luckily. I mostly just end up with sprained toes ALL THE TIME.

>Kuzushi is fake though
MCMAP just calls it "unbalancing" if the Japanese term is confusing you. They teach throws with the exact same system, same eight directions of kuzushi/unbalancing.
>If you go for a double leg, You are making a connection and "creating the shape" before doing anything to his balance
You are not a wrestler. There are a multitude of tricks and setups to fuck with someone's balance and momentum (kuzushi) before attempting a shot.

>>264809
Unbalancing someone isn't a step in the process, it's the end goal
This is why people have so much trouble knocking each other over when its the most piss easy thing to do, they're not focusing their intention

People practice this shit like it's a waltz they actually count it out 123 123 step turn lift step turn lift
That's not real, it's barely a step above chi blasts. I can't even talk to judo people about this because I'm dealing with retards
This guy who is a physican mind you said not to lift weights "that's time you could've spent training"

>>264814
>I can't even talk to judo people about this because I'm dealing with retards
I've been genuinely wondering if you are low- to mid-functioning autistic because of the way you hamstring yourself with asinine absolutes and don't seem to grasp abstract concepts.

>>264815
Abstraction is exactly what Im trying to avoid
I'm rejecting judo as a philosophy and a system
"maximum efficiency, minimum effort"
I say "maximum effectiveness, efficiency is irrelevant" if it was effective then it was exactly as efficient as it needed to be

I reject 8 directions
A circle isn't 8 directions, why only 8, why not 16, why not 137? Because 8 is important in Buddhism and the old midget in a dress said so
And then there's the clasifications, Nami, kata, and gyaku jime are the same exact move for example
The direction your thumb is pointing is wholly irrelevant to mechanically choking someone
You could even complete that choke without gripping at all because the wrist bone is what's applying the pressure
There is too much internal focus on what your body is doing and not enough on the external of how is it affecting the other person

How often have you seen people fumbling around because they can't finish these basic ass collar chokes and it's because they're so transfixed about having the precise correct grip, making sure that their 4 fingers are hooking just right, and their thumbs aren't facing the wrong direction, Meanwhile they have no pressure on the arteries

>>264819
>I say "maximum effectiveness, efficiency is irrelevant" if it was effective then it was exactly as efficient as it needed to be
Nobody who trains seriously in any fighting discipline thinks this. You can easily gas yourself out prematurely with effective techniques executed inefficiently or with excess force.
>A circle isn't 8 directions, why only 8, why not 16, why not 137?
The same reason a typical compass rose is in eight directions: straight, sideways, and diagonal are good enough for a coarse description of the direction in which a human body is moving across the ground. Sometimes a specific direction between the eight is discussed for some niche application just like sometimes north-east-east is useful when giving a more precise heading but usually the eight are specific enough.
>And then there's the clasifications, Nami, kata, and gyaku jime are the same exact move for example
These are similar choke variations but are not the "same exact move," which should be obvious to the guy who needs all 360 degrees of kuzushi defined for him.
>There is too much internal focus on what your body is doing and not enough on the external of how is it affecting the other person
Every submission grappling school I've visited, judo included, explains how chokes work to the students so that they understand what they're trying to accomplish with the techniques they're learning.
>How often have you seen people fumbling around because they can't finish these basic ass collar chokes and it's because they're so transfixed about having the precise correct grip, making sure that their 4 fingers are hooking just right, and their thumbs aren't facing the wrong direction, Meanwhile they have no pressure on the arteries
Basically never, but perhaps that's because I've never coached the special needs class. You teach people the objective and then show them some tools with which they can achieve that objective and they usually figure it out pretty quickly.

Don't think so. Heres something from a Slate article, "That combat sports readily lend themselves to eroticization is hardly news. The Olympics of Greek antiquity prominently featured wrestling, boxing and pankration (a sort of latter day MMA). In a seeming nod to the audience’s sexual voyeurism, clothing was eventually done away with and experts have argued that the events were 'all about watching naked men.' "

Wrestling as a sport has always had a sexual component to it, and wrestling rituals and mating rituals have their overlaps (showing the physically fitness/attractiveness of a potential partner)

Its cool to see regular dudes fighting with a camera that isn't coated in vaseline or shaking like its held by a guy with parkinsons

It's not nice to call attention to Joe Rogan's St. Vaseline Disorder like that

the quick, cheap & easy entry point is the Innova starter kit (aviar, shark, leopard version). walmart.com or amazon always has them <$25. Well rounded beginner disc choices and they usually come in lighter 150g weight for kids. I could think of a few autistic gripes about this set, but they don't really matter for a 10yo. Best selling set for 30+ years for a reason.

If you have a small boutique shop nearby, I'm sure the staff would be happy to help find good discs for a kid and give some tips.

>>258294
everyone i know who's ever shown an interest in disc golf has been a fat unathletic stoner

if you wanna do the cheapest option, just get him a straight flying midrange and if his interest keeps up, buy him a few more different kinds
if you wanna spend a little bit more, get a lower speed fairway driver like the latitude explorer, and compliment that with a straight midrange like an innova nova or a latitude claymore, then a basic putter like the discmania p2 or p1. with just those 3 discs you can go very far, especially as a kid

>>258263

Are Brazilian surfers as annoying in Brazil as they are in other countries?

Not really. It depends a lot on the beach. In Arpoador, Rio de Janeiro, you have a lot of toxic mfs who will snake and get snaked all the time. There’s no order at all; it’s like four guys going for the same wave. The same applies to Guarujá, in São Paulo.

In Maresias, though, you have crowded spots with around 40 people, and you rarely see any snaking or fighting. I’ve been surfing in Maresias for more than 10 years, and I’ve never seen a fight. I have been called out during my teenage years for taking too many waves at least 5 or 6 times (I’m a bigger-wave longboarder, so I tend to catch far more waves than shortboarders), but I’ve never been kicked out of the water or threatened with violence. Never been called out again, let shortboarder get their waves and always get good ones to

>>264753
I would say that at least in Maresias, its pretty disciplined and you will most likely not meet many assholes
