What's your excuse for not skating?
>>244922Make skateboarding cozy but get real fucking goodTo where you can go to a competition real nervous but ignore the hype and perform better than anyone else because you practiced extensivelyIf someone bombed a hill in San Francisco and you want to do that, wear gear and PRACTICE SITUATIONS WHERE YOUD GET SPEED WOBBLES OBSESSIVELYEvel Kinneval could have gotten a lot further if he were good at mathSo apply math and physics to your obsessionYou can only break and twist your limbs so often before you have to decide to either quit take a break or better yet WEAR GEAR AND STUDY LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON ITThe hippie dippie retards with no gear are bound to either become paralyzed or addicted to crack
>>247190You must have really good health insurance or dont practice that often to decrease your riskLet Andy Macdonald be, he's got a lot more testosterone than you
>>247193>You must have really good health insurancenope>or dont practice that oftenI skate every day>Let Andy Macdonald beYou must be ancient
I broke my back.

What strength training routines do these types of fighters maintain?Could this be replicated at home?
good resource, helped me a lot:https://www.youtube.com/@willratelle8027big thing if you're training judo with intense training programs is to keep volumes low and stimulus consistent but not burdensome
>>249999Checked. As other anons have said, the basic compound exercises (squat, bench, deadlift, overhead press, rows) are all good, I'd personally argue that trapbar/hexbar deadlift is a better option for most people than barbell deadlift. Farmer carries (or even holds) can be good for grip strength, hell just hold your last deadlift rep of the day for as long as you can. Like anything consistent training is key, though if you're also training martial arts you need to be careful with your programming: Alternating lifting days and martial arts days, or doing lower lifting intensity on the days you'll train martial arts, etc. I like to do a little lifting before bjj/kickboxing, but the lifting sessions in my case are very minimalist to just maintain strength I've built up over the years. Some other guys at my gym train Mon-Sat, but skip martial arts on Wednesdays to lift full body instead. Lots of different ways to do it.t. Competed in powerlifting for 10 years before switching to bjj and kickboxing
https://youtube.com/watch?v=GbzpMT6t-Zgdeadlifts, squats, bicep curls and chest exercises are useless and counter productive
They all have different strength requirements. Grapplers need good lower back strength and strong grips and durable strong pulls, they are also very explosive as well.Strikers need cardio and mobility
They actually do super secret strength exercisesCreated by mystical gurus in the ancient pastPassed down through the generations of mastersThe Sacred Truth, revealed only to the worthyNah they just do what everyone else does, plus dumb gimmicks because their coach told them to
if brain damage was a myth, then i'd totally be into muay thai and maybe judo.last time i got punched in the head, i saw stars. it was cool.
i mean i already know skateboarding, concrete can fuck your brain any day, it's not like i'm not taking risks.idk what about 1v1 makes me intrigued
ok fuck it im gonna keep lifting. my shoulders fucking hurt, my legs are stiff, my back is relaxed. my CNS is fried. i'm sitting in front of my cup of coffee but i don't want to drink it and be active, i'm tired of making an effort, what a bitch.i should keep avoiding both sports. or i should express myself so i can keep on with life. idk. how did i end up thinking about punching another person? it seems so detached from what a healthy person should be thinking about. questioning my sanity rn
>>253691for striking, it depends on weight class, you can just not compete

As someone who is the same age as charlie, snowboarded my first black slope, learning skateboarding, falling off now and again.Charlie is full of shit here.https://youtube.com/shorts/lOW0gnh4kS4?si=iPYsrzzWuKEltLF1
>>251994Who?
>>251994He is 100% right because he has been sat in his bibeogayme throne for 15 years allowing his tendons and spine to collapse on themselves and he probably can't do 1 push up or pull upFor everyone who can do a few pull ups and isn't a pro videogame streamer parasite then it's okay have fun
>>252015some retard
>>251994Yeah I agree, I think skateboarding is a little less forgiving than say snowboarding or wakeskating or whatever given that you're falling on concrete but you can still do it...you just gotta work your way up to the cool stuff. That being said I broke my ankle skating at 30, had to get plates and screws put in, and haven't really got back into it since but it's more of a mental thing than anything else for me
skateparks are full of teens and crackheads, not really the best of places
How do we save this shitheap of a martial art? All suggestions and general Power Era nostalgia welcomet. ITF 2nd dan (but not trained in years)
>>251156you misunderstand me. Like that nunchaku tournament in this thread. Sanda but add weapons.
divide it in 3 big groups>sportslet'em do whatever they want. buy belts. kiddy shit>martial artbring it back to 90s and before. some do barehand only, some do some yellow guy weapons stuff you won't find irl unless you own them plus knife and stick. we keep belts but you actually earn it on a tournament and you only spend on an official certificate based on your teacher's word). KO, TKO or give up.>martial fightingwe go OG manuals and myths. survival moves, that's it. Add current weaponry. Colored belts and light, gay uniforms are gone. Sturdy, Judo like gis that are styled like normal clothes for grappling's sake. Shoes stay on. A new, exclusive product: Roman Cestus like gloves (not the spikes kind) the Tae Kwon Do people now carry on their pockets 24/7. Tkd is now a thing you fear and respect again...and then there's foot jabbing with a helmet for the kids
>>211263The answer is simple, get more practitioners go into mma and kickboxing the more the better because the more successful it becomes the more people will get drawn to it, this is what made bjj so successful despite being the karate/tkd of grappling.Traditional and the asian flare are no longer enough to attract new members and the current members are content in a stagnant bubble just latching to what they know.The only way to progress is through high level competition and that only exist in modern combat sports, this applies to any tma.
I went to my first taekwondo class tonight and it was just really casual I guess? I don't know what I was expecting, but no one was in a uniform except the two instructors, I was easily the most fit person there, the students I saw were hitting the bags really light and sloppily with no energy, and the young kid (maybe 14) I was training with just whined the entire time about being dizzy from spin kicks. Is this normal? There's only one other place in my town so this might be it for me. I'm on a 30 day free trial so i lose nothing if I don't go back
>>253145>Is this normal?No
How likely is it to practice martial arts in home, and how can it be done?
>>250002Train at home for exercise and fine-tune your techniques. Work out and get stronger when home training. Go all out once you're back in the dojo/home. Get footage of your sparring bouts. Analyze that at home and try to fix your home routine for improvement. >>250098>Yeah, man. Go spar all day everyday.Stupid ass nigger watches some fight fag youtuber and Joe Rogan once thinks he knows shit. This is some retarded ass post.
>>250002If you go to a school and learn, don't you usually get homework? You can definitely get "good" by training by yourself
The real trick is that you only train what you actually know. Stop trying to learn new stuff alone, just train your limited knowledge to its peak physicality. A teacher would recognize it and give you something new to work on when you visit. That's like... krotty 101.
Do you think breakfalls can be trained alone? I’ve tried and I tend to slam my lower back against the ground which doesn’t seem right but since I lack a teacher I don’t actually know for sure.
>>250002Sure, you can even do it with zero equipment if you're okay with the kung fu mindset, which is pretty much doing huge numbers of reps in order to build up to increasingly more difficult movements. You don't learn how to kill people right away but your body becomes a weapon capable of that based on level of daily effort.
How do Muay Thai fighters train? Do they do technique, cardio, sparring, and calisthenics?
no none of that
yes to all
>have a skateboard as a kid>don't mind skateboarding>get rid of it as an adult>realize skateboarders are awful and skateboarding is badHave I become a caricature of the out of touch adult? It seems to me just like how golf attracts sociopathic fat rich people, skateboarding attracts sociopathic skinny poor people. I've been attacked by skateboarders as an adult for just minding my own business, they used to see me as one of them, now that I have a job and own my home they see me as an enemy and I see them as an enemy. Instinctively! It's fucking weird I feel like I'm living in a cartoon. Do other people go through this?
>>253194Once you hit 30 you'll realise that the other people engaging in a hobby/sport do not define it. Just like you don't have to be a beer swilling, soon to be heart attack having, greasy as fuck face having creature to play darts. You can engage with skating however you like and don't need to be a drugged up street urchin wannabeWhat I'm trying to say is: Get oooooover yourself faaaaaaaggot

Russ Mitchell is a fraud
>>244993ded link
>>256590dat ass
>>253844Sidesword, preferably a later style so more rapier like. Learning to fence with the ricasso rings will let you learn a lot more techniques and is far more interesting than the hammer grip arming swords require. If you want more interesting and dynamic play, go for late sideswords.
