@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
@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
that's what i need to do
