Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu General: I wish that were me edition>Smoothcomphttps://smoothcomp.com>Belt Checkerhttps://www.beltchecker.com (dead)>Thread questionat what age are you no longer expected to roll but still get respectPrevious thread: >>207439
>>216028 did show up to my first comp this weekend and lost all 4 of my matches. Wish I didnt to spare myself this embarassment
>>216053you win some you lose some. mostly lose.losing sucks but signing up and going is half the battle.at the very least you'll get an idea of what to work on to improve.
>>216054I wish my ego wasnt as fragile because I now dread the thought of going again and losing every match again. Do you think I should start incorporatimg wrestling in my training or focus exclusively on bjj? My biggest weakness was lack of both agression and explosiveness so I figured wrestling could help with that.
>>216056I think you should stop going to competitions because it's clear you don't want to do it and are doing it because of some percieved expectation and wanting the approval of others
>>216056All the wrestling in the world is not going to help if you can’t pull the trigger. You need to spend time training at competition intensity or just compete more if you want to be mentally and physically prepared for comp. It’s a skill in itself.

Whats the bestest fighter there ever was that Patrick bateman(did boxing, 80 kgs, 6ft tall) on magic drug that makes him able to learn to fight from old memories and gives perfect sexterity could beat?
Wanna try that question again?
What percentage of adults would die after one uprotected punch from prime Foreman?
>>215268In the chin with full force
>>215269die after immediate impact? after they hit their head on the ground? at the hospital? 5 years later from a stroke?probably 95% of the geriatrics in the world
I think the glove makes it worse than bare knuckle, the spread out impact will give you the full force of the thumpIf it was a fist your bones would break more which is a good thing in this case like the crumple zone of a car
Here's a better question: Who'd win a striking only fight, prime Bas Rutten or prime Foreman?

>>215125>mugiwarafuck, autocorrect. I love One Piece.
>>215125The only thing involving impact I've ever seen is that white Lethwei guy using a speed bag with his head, and that just barely qualifies. Everything else is static or rolling pressure. Head stands and the different bridges on hard surfaces, rolling pin on the front and top of the head. Pretty much the same secondary methodologies you'd see for the other body parts but avoiding actual kinetic work for what one can assume are the standard reasons. Personally I'd assume it requires a ton of training for what may be very little to no gains.
>>215125That is fucking stupid. Besides Lethwei, the only other combat sport that allowed headbutts was the original Japanese Kickboxing in the 1960's. There's footage from 1966 to the early 1970's that show them headbutting and doing all kinds of wrestling/judo throws. They later banned those due to high-injury. You should never practice your head as a weapon seeing how CTE is nothing to joke about.
Are there any books, or just papers or articles etc, about the basic workout, emblematic calisthenics \workout item\ regimen of workout, of turkish "oil wrestlers", and mongolian-wrestling? Pic related is a book about the hindu pushup and squat workout, the Maces and Stone ring used by Kushti grapplers, etc. it talks about religion and anthropology and semen retention (BASED) but a smart person could reconstruct a kushti wrestling regimen reading it.
>>214188Size, numbers, interest, money. Not necessarily in that order, but the combination is pretty powerful. Fwiw though, the community is really only just starting here and may never take off. Lavell just came back for a seminar tour for the first time in years.
>>214119I was actually about to make a Turkish oil wrestling thread
>>214631Is it like olive oil or what?
>>214631>>214637>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yNLabC04G0turkish "oil" (unoiled here, tho) wrestler vs USA-association rikishi. he isn't a sumo "champion", just in the USA league. The title is wrong but the video is a fascinating style vs style match
>>214119>turkish "oil wrestlers"Gay as fuck.
I want to learn something that would actually teach me how to use a weapon, near me they have fencing, eskrima and kendo. Of these three which one would have the most real life applicability?
>>200581^
>>210452>Ah yes, the mythical "police kendo".There isn't anything mythical about it, nor is there is much difference between police kendo and everyday kendo - the chief difference is they have their own championship. The other anon is referring to the fact that Japanese police are required to train in either Judo or Kendo - and the ones that compete are essentially state-sponsored athletes. The politics and funding behind police championships is a whole other topic.>b-b-but they're allowed foot sweeps! I saw a compilation video of all three instances of when it happened!"Police Kendo" and "normal" kendo are 99.9% identical.
I studied various weapons from learning the Balisong knife openings as a child. To learning how to swing a baseball bat, to playing with nunchuks, and then taking foil fencing and formal training in Filipino Martial Arts.
>>200580The most common objects to be used as weapons are sticks and blades, so I believe Filipino Martial Arts are the most effective for begiinners. If you are military/law enforcement, there are Martial Artists who have learned to condense there training methods to meet the immediate needs of learning to deal with knives, large blades, and blunt heavy objects. Hema is great, but the path to learning those arts is long
>>201467Not all of the Philippines were controlled by Spain, and in the places that were controlled Spain had to ban the martial arts practices and do anything to mitigate the use of weapons such as cut the tips off farming blades and make Filipino men wear shear clothing during formal events to ensure no concealed weapons were present.
A place to discuss zorbing and zorbing accessories. A misunderstood but globular extreme sport. Limp Bizkit once wrote a song about this
>>210651Mmm now that's badd ass
>>206135They had something like that back in the 1972 Olympics, there was a track with jumps and stuff. But what the hell happened, I didn't see any zorbing this year, I thought they were bringing it back
>>215132>disgracing the noble sport of zorbing with AI slop
>>215184I think it's acceptable given that all the original photos were burned by the anti-zorb lobby before they could be digitized.Speaking of lobbies, did you know there was a zorb event planned for 2012 Olympics in London? We were so close to greatness...

>>212662If I rob people and use parkour to run away, then it DID make me money.

Want to participate in one of the most ultimate extreme sports? Come Skydive.Either do a tandem for ~S220 (Don't get video you will watch it once or twice and it costs $120+) or go through AFF and jump with your own gear every jump ($~3600 for the first 8 jumps or so) Most jumps are $60-70 after that if renting gear, or ~$30 if you have your own.Any questions? Ask away I'm an insutructor
>>199891This looks sick, when I get my license I will be going next year.
>>211562Pay attention to your instructors, see if they can't hook you up with tunnel time ($10-15 a minute if you are going with other skydivers), and be prepared to be a bitch to the wind, the clouds, and the temperatures.>>211563seek out Louis French if you are ready for 10-15 ways by then - dude is VERY good at teaching and setting up fun dives
>>198896Did my first tandem yesterday and loved it. Going to push through and get my A license now
>>198896Lame. If you want to learn to skydive, sneak a parachute onto a plane and just jump out. They're not going to jump out and bring you back up, are they?
Looking to set up my first jump. Is there anything I should look for when selecting an instructor/school? As far as certifications go? Since I'll be barreling out of a plane I want to be sure the people know what they're doing and they're not retards obviously.
What the fuck bros? There's no /scuba/ general?Let's rectify that.Best dive sites? Hairy or funny stories?And the obvious question, what's better? PADI or SDI?Here's an Australian Scuba FAQ until we make our ownhttps://scubaworld.com.au/learn-to-dive-faqs
Lobster season in Cali, but I've only brought one back so far. I tried the break wall outside of Angel's Gate at night and it was practically barren.
>>214071you think you do but you don't
>>214602Why?
>>214604they're all super tomboyish
>>215145I find that cute. A boyish girl I'm talking to at the moment said she'd love to get into diving.
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
>>195337Since this is a Dragon Ball thread it's worth mentioning that his eyes turned a lighter shade of blue, too.
>>189953What are the best 1-3 training inspiration episodes? Thinking about trying to find this with Spanish dubs and English subs to learn Spanish through a cornerstone of Latin American culture.

I've been losing weight, the trick was to stop eating vegetablesI only eat meat and fruit, no leafs stems roots or seeds. I've been thoroughly convinced they're toxic and not meant to be eaten in the absurd quantities we have them I lost 27lbs in a month and a halfAnd the neat part is its actually impossible to overeat meat or fruit so I get to have as much as I want whenever I want
The training with Master Roshib was very Kino and by the way also subversive. The turtle master actually has his disciples perform physically demanding jobs such as delivering milk or construction work.There is also the fact of having fun and relaxing during training.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qQaoxfHk7d8&pp=ygUebWFlc3RybyByb3NoaSBoYXkgcXVlIHRyYWJhamFy
