What is the best martial art if you are normal sized (5'11/6 foot) but physically weak (110 pounds)? Those are my stats.Eskrima sounds nice but you can't carry sticks or knives around with you like an fighting game character.
doesn't matter if you're weak, just choose whatever you like best, fag. what's the worst thing that can happen? you getting stronger? unless you're actually physically ill and can't train, you have nothing to worry about
>>239977Unarmed, probably boxing. Taekwondo or muay thai if you can find good ones but taekwondo is mostly shit. I would say before you get into boxing you want to get into bodybuilding and lifting, train your neck a good amount to minimize brain damage from boxing and try to find light (but fast) sparring partners. Being able to do 20 pushups and 10 pullups will also be good for you.
>>239977Judo and BJJ.
>>240006Seconding this.
>>239977Anything point based like Taekwondo, or technical grappling like Judo and BJJ

>>239977>t. 110 5’7 manletIf you’re 110 at 6 feet, you are extremely underweight and undermuscular for your size. Both of these put you at serious injury risk, I wouldn’t do a combat sport till you get that handled and get to a normal BMI. Even as a shortie who doesn’t need much more massI found bjj and wrestling extremely hard on my shoulder and knee joints, and a major cause of this was fat and muscle are the padding protecting both once someone with wrestler forehead wants to give either a 180 degree rotation.You can ignore this advice, but if you do, go buy your leg sleeves now, because you’re gonna be wearing them for a half year within 3 months.

>>239977If you're thinking of carry weapons and you obly weigh 110lbs dont be suprised when my 5'7 186lbs ass puts you in hospital and get charged with causing GBH... maybe actually eat sime fucking food and justclearn to fight if you want to fight. I cant understand people like you and i thi k you'd have a vetter prospective after 16 years of kickboxing gyms and 6 of BJJ.. you're going to pull a stick out on the wrong person one day and thats worse than just shoving them because they're going to think you're trying to kill someone so they're going to over react and go overboard on your ass and you're going to be holding the shitty end of that stick my boy..
>>239977Judo
>>239977For survival? The 100m sprint.For actual combat or situations where you're literally backed into a corner, boxing or krav maga.
>>239977You'll need to beef up for wrestling or boxing, if you want to stay skinny do Muay thai (or any karate thing) or BJJ
>>240003this is good to know, I thought I was a genetic failure because similar to OP (5'8, 120lbs) and I could nail 20 pushups at most without any previous warmup.additionally correct me if I am wrong but when rolling against someone heavier than me it is pretty much over when they manage to get a 100kgs/side guard given the weight is too much and i just do not have the strength to get out.is it a skill issue or do i accept my fate whenever it happens?
>>256540Absolutely a skill issue. There are people that weight who can get out of that. DOn't get me wrong, it will be exponentially more difficult for you, especially if they are better than you, but it is doable, doubly especially if you are better than them. just git strong, and git gud
>>239977No fighting discipline can make you invincible. And some people fight just great without taking any kind of classes.But I've never come across anyone who takes Muay Thai seriously, who could not handle themselves in a real brawl.Boxing also helps develop a wide array of strengths. A good boxing gym will beat most other options, for physical and mental strength, and agility.Anything with grappling is also helpful (wrestling, ju-jitsu, judo) but you need to get used to being beat on the head and whopped in the nuts, if you want to stand a chance in the aggression of a committed fight.(Source: nothing really, I've done a ton of fighting disciplines, most are beautiful, develop character, and help you to avoid fights preemptively. But then make little difference if you're mugged at knife-point or jumped by burly thugs who mess people up every day.)
>>239977I started literally where you are in my early 20's. Same height, same weight (I'm also on the verge of 5'11/6'). In fact I could have written this - I tried Eskrima first too. I've done a mix of Krav Maga, Eskrima and Muay Thai. (Krav Maga is gay)I had never really cared about being small until I sparred someone and they said "...and you're a pretty small guy", which made me realize I was at a physical disadvantage. I couldn't stand that. I ate food, lots of protein and did a fully balanced routine (trained like a bodybuilder but also trained for strength; minimal dumbfuck routines that just "squat bench and deadlift" develop severe muscle imbalances). Size and strength do make a difference. I walk around comfortably at ~180 lbs now. There is no comparison to how I feel, and how I perform in sparring, compared to before. I can feel it when I punch people. I've rolled with some guy who was like 210 but less in shape and it was like throwing a retarded sack of potatoes around. His confidence at being "bigger" went out the door quickly.Focus on building mass and strength. Even getting to 150 lbs. at your size will make a world of difference. Keep up cardio as well. I promise you you'll thank me if you stick with it.
>>257272>I'm also on the verge of 5'11/6'LolLmao evenDo manlets really
>>239977Do you care about the sport, or do you just care about being able to defend yourself? If it's the latter, then carrying and training with weapons is the easiest and most efficient solution.
