The deadly strike against the carotid.

>>241975It will drop you if you have never had it happen before. It's not somewhere you expect to get hit. It would be like if somebody hooks your armpit. You are not tensed there ready to receive a blow.

>>241980The idea back then i think, at least on the allied side. Was to teach some basic and easy to learn strikes that would quickly disable your opponent. William E. Fairbairn developed his own fighting style called "Defendu" or "gutter fighting" based of his experience in Shanghai. He taught this to OSS operatives.
>>241980most of this was theoretical. u can take a much harder object and do permanent damage but a edge of hand strike to the nose will never be fatal unless you shoot them in the head afterwards.
i've been doing boxing for some years but recently got a shoulder injury that will take many months to recover. Unfortunately i cannot do sparring and other heavy training and can only do light exercises and practice combinations that are not too taxing on the shoulders. What types of training can i do to keep up in the meantime so i do not lose progress or at least have something where i can improve?. I was thinking on focusing on footwork, coordination drills and light shadowboxing for technique but i can't seem to incorporate them well enough.
What do you mean that you can't incorporate them well enough?I'll probably get hate for this but Tai Chi might be a really good option. It's basically footwork, coordination, and shadowboxing but the whole point is to develop relaxed strength; coordination is a huge part of that. As long as you find a good teacher who isn't super woo woo I think it will be really good.But that also depends on the nature of your injury...
>>235806Basically i dislocated my shoulder many years ago during weight training. After that it was extremely sensible to overhand movement(sports like swimming, volleyball, etc are a no go) and would dislocate stremely easily. Iwas told just recently that it should not be strained since it could do long term damageto the shoulder. What i do in the meantime are foodwork drills, coordination and light technique with partners, but i can feel my stamina and strenght slowly declining over time.

>>232082take advice from ur PT on what ROM shit u can do as u recover. beyond that, image training, footwork, cardio, build the fuck out of your free arm's arsenal.
I used to do boxing in high school (3 years). I'm now 36. Thinking of starting karate. Which type is good?Should I do shotakon karate? Or I have an ashihabara karate school right next to my house, it seems the best for me.(I already did TKD (Taekwondo not Total Kike Death) and Muay Thai and I didn't like it much but ashihabara karate seems cool and more useful from videos)Before I start, I wanted to get a bit more /fit/, so I lost a lot of weight, got down to 77 kg from 88, I'm 187 cm. Still no visible abs but I think I should be good to go
>>237608honestly at this age look into muay thai, bjj, or MMAthe target demographic is more skewed towards adults and you get into the action faster
>>237608couldn't that fetish OF harlot at least get an ACTUAL gi and not a bath towel?
>>237608>shotaconFucking little boys don't make you strong. Joke aside do kyokyushin or something that looks like kyokyushin.
>>237608>shotakon karatewhere is the lolikon judo school?
>>237608the focus on forms n weird shit for belt rank progression will be not too different from the tkd bs u had to do. not sure why u want to do that if u already box and theoretically understand how to train to fight and be fit. go find a kickboxing/muay thay school that has a big emphasis on competition.
lets say your walking down the street and u bump into a guy. one things leads into another your granted a fair 1v1 no weapons only limbs. (kicks and whatnot allowed) but you cant back out. what kind of clothing would be best? would you regular street wear help you? i usally wear a nike tech fleece very breathable and moveable material and typical sneakers. only thing that might through me off is if im wearing some jeans that day. i think perfect fighting outfit would be a good sports tracksuit like the nike tech suit and some sort of sneaker that u can grip the floor in and kick with but thats not too limiting. on the foot
>>237127>>239180Lightweight steel toe sneaker for kicks.>>235077>>228446Some chainmail which will make his punches ineffective, also stab-proof unless he's using a spear. (I know it's a fair fight but this is in any case). Other than that you just want something breathable and hard to grab. Maybe a low-quality old shirt that will rip the moment your opponent grabs it.

>>211089>Retard falls for my display of a singular handgun>Pull out RPG-7
>>203686why not both?weapon retention starts with good situational awareness and decent striking and grappling skills, and good baseline cardio, hand-eye coordination, strength and flexibility. OP is baiting but srsly, watch hours and hours of footage of bodycam footage. Shit doesn't go down as smoothly 1 v 1 most of the time even if the cop has a firearm and the suspect does not. Always helps to both be able to confidently and reliably use a firearm AND use your body to strike and grapple your opponent.Find or grow a community of friends and colleagues that you can go to the range with AND spar/roll with, and sooner or later you'll be starting your own little militia....
>>211144>>203689>>203686You're a sorry excuse of a man and you know it. Get off your chair, go outside, and experience your body. There's not a more primal and exciting human experience than fighting another chimp 1 on 1. If not for glory, then simply to put your mind and body to the test. Fuck action movies and video games. Go experience it first hand you imbecile.

just surf more, i will say doing burpees with your popup improves it

Would've been GOAT if he wasn't diseased and dying to the cold and flu. He could've been triple champ.DESTROYS Anderson Silva, Israel Adesanya, Alex Pereira, Sean Strickland, DDP.DESTROYS Jiri Prochazka, Jamahal Hill, Glover Texeira. Beats up Magomed Ankalaev, beats Jon Jones.DESTROYS Jack Della Maddalena, Belal Muhammad. Beats Kamaru Usman, Islam Makhachev, GSP.

>>240440Yea I agree with you this guy could've been triple champ. But he's probably more illness-prone if he stays at welter.

Can someone send that meme image where it is Merab and Topuria (maybe pantoja is in it too) looking like pepes, and they are looking at taller fighters smuggly? The meme is something about being short and being based.
What's the lowest bar to entry combat sport I can hop in and spar as a complete beginner? I want to have a taste for it without having to go through months of work.
>>236408Lmao. These guys are actually trained and will btfo most people who "train"
>>226966Unironically sumo.
>>227258>A competent coach would probably strongly discourage thatThere isnt a competent coach that doesnt encourage hands on experience. As long as youre being safe every martial art should allow sparring on the first lesson.
BJJ let's you spar on day 1.
>>226966If you don't seem to squirrely, most places will let you or encourage you to spar and roll asap, as long as u are wearing whatever gear they require (groin cup, mouthguard, shin guards, wraps, 16 oz gloves, etc)
Could I use this for muay thai?
>>234729go back
i don't know
I can't tell you
can you repeat the question?
>>234729YOURE NOT THE BOSS OF ME NOWMost places will ask u to use 16 oz gloves for sparring. Everlasts are fine but Windy, Fairtex, Twins, Yokkao, and if ur sugar daddy is paying for gloves, Winning gloves are all better choices. The first 4 I listed are easily found in new/used condition on fbook marketplace or by your friendly semi-retired neighborhood coach at ur local crunch gym who still has a wholesaler acct.
Is there any ice skaters here? Figure, dance, speed, freestyle, or even hockey can be included.Not many places to talk about it.
>>241257Have you tried minding your hips and shoulders? For outside the free leg should be extended as much as possible with open hips and toes facing the side (facing right if ur doing left outside egde forward 3turn) Also ive found that having an arm extended in front of me help directing the turn.To learn to master your basics you should definitely check out the youtube channel style skating, the woman speaking is great, it's almost like having your personal coach with how precise her descriptions are
>>241382Yeah I’m watching that, and I do got a private coach that constantly hits me on my lack of arms. But she’s pretty happy with the turns themselves and says it’s mostly just needing to smooth things out and get more muscle memory. But it’s still a struggle and I hate how slow this feels compared to everything else being so easy. Honestly considering other people I talk to I think a large part is my outside edges suck, and if I had to guess it’s cause my feet are a bit fucked so I really need to strain myself to get into the outside position, and I think that’s hurting the post rotation glide. On the bright side, afternoons are dead now that kids are in school. It’s so much easier to get practice when there’s only like 3 girls on the entire rink.
>>241387Sometimes it just happens man. Personally i been stuck on twizzles and scratch spins for two months now and i'm boutta explode. Unless i go to classes any ice that i step my foot on is ruined by hockey players, im losing my passion i can feel it. The only times i feel truly unburdened is when the ice is empty and smooth, but like that happens at public sessions
>>228219I used to do figure skating when I was younger and a part of me wants to get back into it, the issue being that its pretty gay for a guy to do figure skating and I want a girlfriend.
>>244701I stopped caring about looking gay, now I'm just having fun.I do kinda look like a pedo being the only grown man in group classes filled with little girls though.But all the adult women seem to like me well enough. If I was single I could probably land a few of them.
For anyone who has done a martial artIs it normal to have mixed emotions about it?None of the stuff I've tried (Boxing, Judo, Wrestling, BJJ)Has made me instantly think "omg I love this. This is it. I'm doing this for life"It's usually a combination of "well that was really difficult and tiring, is this worth it, this is going to be difficult but I'll be a better person mentally and physically, I guess.. just stick with it?"Or were you instantly hooked
>>244716After doing Judo I feel so fucking relaxed and happy, it's what smoking weed is supposed to feel like but really isn't. During the training it is a struggle but afterwards I felt like I was bathing in endorphins. BJJ on the other hand didn't produce that effect on me. I just felt tired afterwards.
purple belt in bjj here, 7 years training. I did love it instantly and competed a LOT. did very well at local events.i think every hobby has its highs and lows, theres def days, weeks or months in a row where i'm not super motivated to train, however ive made a lot of friends that keep me motivated and there is a lot of the sport that i do love.....i do get why people think its gay and dont enjoy it tho lol
>>244737I didn't get this with judo as we didn't do any randori, we just did positional newaza, pin, and very complex and unintuitive throwsI did get this feeling with boxing and wrestling as the conditioning was to the max and the sparring felt intuitiveBJJ I hated but maybe it was the instructor. We didn't roll at all just practiced guard "play around in it" he said
I'll start>Scorpion Rib CrushThis is a variant of do-jime (banned judo technique but legal in BJJ and MMA) where you have an opponent in closed guard and squeeze your knees on their floating ribs.Here's a video of a WMMA fighter using it to win in Bellator:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Pel1w2tZYLAVery hit-or-miss but can either>do nothing (if they have a strong core)>break ribs>fuck up organs (supposedly)You can hear the opponent yell out and tap immediatelyComment too long.

>>244036If they haven't managed to take out all the slack, you can twist to the side and roll out of it (ideally, grab their left ankle with your left hand and pull till you "spin" enough to take the pressure off.)You're still going to land in a trash position, but it's at least an attempt at survival.
