Hoover Dam posted:Martelo de chão, which has the benefit of everyone in my group being bad at, and trying to recover confidence after a head injury three months ago. Got a rabo de arraia to the head; broke my nose, got a concussion, suddenly worse in the roda than I was before. Does stuff like that happen often in capoeira?

Fuckin Trump Riot posted:I tried a karate class last week to supplement my aikido stuff. They were very old school formal in their approach, and their website said verbatim, "Do not train with us unless you're willing to commit full time as a student." So, I sent them a email that I had a lot of fun, but couldn't go full time since aikido is my home dojo, and wishing them the best. what do you get out of aikido?

he cross-trained in systema?

does the systema raise any red flags to you though - do they actually spar?

Fuckin Trump Riot posted:I'unno, honestly. Most of this is from watching for like a minute or two and third hand accounts. You can check out the Wikipedia article, though, it's a legit martial art. Like not bullshit internet claims but actually used by Russian military. I do know it's freeform sparring, though. The article says there's no kata work, and I know for a fact that's true. I don't think you actually mentioned training systema but all that you just posted is absolute bullshit. If you enjoy doing aikido or whatever for fun then that's cool though. But I don't think you should vouch for a REAL RUSSIAN MARTIAL ARTS SYSTEM that you don't actually train in and that is most assuredly a huge steaming crock of poo poo.

Also just because people are hitting each 'hard' in a 'freeform style' (???) at a gym doesn't really lend credence.

Vargatron posted:I thought about getting back into Freestyle Wrestling but then I realized I'd get destroyed in competition because I no longer have 7% body fat the way I did in high school. Not sure where I'd even be able to find a gym that trained in it seeing as it's pretty restricted to high school/collegiate athletes. It's been 10 years since I stepped onto a mat, but drat it was a super fun sport back when I did it. You can try contacting this place: https://www.facebook.com/EliteWrestlingAcademy/ but honestly it seems like former wrestlers just go into judo or bjj

Does that mean you can use two hands to strip a grip now?

I used to pop my head into a local gym where I was friendly with the head black belt who has phenomenal jiu jitsu and this new white belt girl started training and suddenly 50% of his rolling time was dedicated to helping to mold her game. It didn't bother me since it wasn't my main gym but lol dude could not have been more overt.

also dude - your coach has already hosed your (ex?) girlfriend - which sucks but it's kind of your fault (sort of not really) but you should probably just cut it out of your life and move on
|
# ¿ Dec 13, 2016 19:28 |

also definitely don't stab your coach - you'll either go to jail or get your rear end hilariously kicked in front of your girlfriend who will probably get turned on by the whole thing

Omglosser posted:How is it my fault exactly? She's an adult. She made her choices. You took your girlfriend to a gym presumably filled with athletic men that like to dominate with their hips and you are a goon that likes anime.

it's pretty lovely and the best thing to do would be to just cut them all out of your life and move on

Omglosser posted:lol they're a bunch of slightly overweight middle aged dorks. I've already made my peace with it and am indeed moving on with my life. No offense but I like a little anime or whatever but you don't know anything else about me besides that this situation has made me crazy enough to think posting it here was a good idea lol. yeah, ironically your best defense would be to buy a pair of running shoes and just run away from it all

fatherdog posted:Your immediate reaction to someone's girlfriend cheating on them being "Well you shouldn't have taken her somewhere she might meet dudes other than you" is maybe a little more revealing of your attitude towards relationships than you might have intended. nah, taking your girlfriend with confidence issues to a gym where 'middle aged dorks' can outperform you is perhaps pretty stupid (granted with hindsight)

willie_dee posted:Do you routinely have your partners cheat on you and leave you for someone who isn't as unatheletic as you? That seems like a really lovely way to live with your frame of mind and logic. no, but I do suspect there is a whole lot of projection in this post willie!

I also suspect I actually ruffled some feathers with the anime comment and for that I do apologize lol

I don't know what the gently caress a fritzl is but no I don't think I'd usher my girlfriend with confidence and self-esteem issues into a gym environment whereOmglosser posted:I've honestly never felt comfortable because that would be dumb as poo poo. Also do I need to remind you that you've spent perhaps upwards of five god drat years on this stupid dead forum proselytizing someone you've never met is gay - over and over again compulsively -, you've given up on yourself and started taking steroids because you're an anorexic weak twink and that on top of all that you're mentally ill? Buddy, don't talk to me about 'potential male competition' (???) - I know you're not dealing with that poo poo.

I've hooked up with girls at the gym and despite it never being a thing it was always kind of awkward later but nothing came of it because we were all adults. Still, I'd recommend not mixing your love life and mat life if you can avoid - ymmv of course
