I like wrestling, Boxing, a little bit of kicking, and some BJJ

@Reaper i don't really have a problem with weight loss. If anything i need to bulk up a little more. But i'm happy where i'm at at 180-185 and almost 6 foot. I just want more muscle mass and definition.

those are all things i've done...didn't find much use for Kempo

whatever works for you

in my adult life i have never had to throw a punch to end an altercation, most have been settled after i head and arm throw somebody.

@GingerSnaps ok well I don't think any martial arts will get you that but you sound like you are a good frame to start training

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I never had to fight anyone before either

Adults just take verbal jabs at you

@°°° if given only to pick one, which is the best one to learn

and shit test you

if you're living near the inner city, probably a good idea to know some shit or at least have some weapon on you

just in case

@Reaper i'm doing weight training for my arms and i have yet to start a squat routine for my legs and butt but i'll get there. Also want to start incorporating push ups and planks into my routine again. that's a good all around exercise.

and Lifting alone and looking big makes you a harder target too

@Unknowncrash grappling

@°°° like martial arts, which type I mean

Yeah I agree on grappling

If you're 6ft tall and you lift, not many people are gonna fuck with you

@GingerSnaps yea you can't go wrong with push ups, chin up are good for your whole upper body too

and if you want to learn fighting, all the better

You'd ruin people

@Unknowncrash greco roman wrestling or jiujitsu

Both really

If you have the time for it

@°°° @Unknowncrash yeah i can see that. A good throw will knock the wind out of your opponent and that gives you all the time you need to scramble out of there. @Reaper yeah that will be my next exercise equipment purchase a mountable lift bar for my door way to do pull ups and shit.

Thanks

do one for a bit, then learn submissions

I know a few guys who did both wrestling and BJJ

they compliment each other well

@GingerSnaps @Unknowncrash you can watch countless "streetfighting" videos on youtube, after one person fails to knockout the other, they always end up in a sloppy tie up, that's where grappling prevails:

@GingerSnaps there is a pretty cheap set of push up bars you can buy called perfect push ups, they are super useful too

@Reaper i've heard that. My one buddy has them.

Don't most people who run into trouble on the streets have to deal with at least 2-3 people at the same time?

Good stuff

or more

that rarely happens

and if it does, generally you see it coming, just leave

@GingerSnaps I like them cause you can simulate twisting your wrist like you would with a punch as you lift yourself

i've seen them in action before. My biggest problem right now is motivation. I have almost no motivation for anything. I just sit on youtube and either soak up red pill stuff or auto mechanic stuff.

@GingerSnaps I'd say find some gym and go no matter how much you have to force yourself
