I'd batter aw ye's

 

Haha! Defo me - I'm a useless fighter - but a black belt at talking my way out of it. Honestly, you'd be about to kill me and I'd have you lending me some bus fare 5 minutes later!

 

New year I'm looking to get in to some boxing..

Never done it. Only literally hit the pads with my brother and vice versa when he was doing his PT but he'd done quite a bit of boxing and kick boxing training. Had a couple of fights with the latter..

My pal's looking to do it as well. Stopped doing as many runs as was slimming down too much for my liking so need something else to focus in on..

Had my pal trying to get me down jiu-jitsu he's been smashing it for age's but no gonna lie, put me off it straight away....said it's kinda in at the deep end grappling first day (although they go easier on you) but I'm no looking to get embarrassed and all bent outta shape
Just need something to let off some steam and keep fit..

 

Yeah. I need something to give me a little confidence on the saaf london streets but mainly cos I'm getting porky and unfit..My first default is to run/waddle lol!

 

Old thread this one!

As for the martial arts. It's something I've always wanted to get into. More for the self discipline aspect to it because that's one thing I've needed most in my life. I have, and do get myself into some amount of madness since I was a kid and if I had this self discipline one gains with martial arts, I'd have had an easy life! The fighting part of it is self explanatory really, all men would love to fight better. I was always fighting growing up and would lived to been better than I was. The fitness, this is one that I would need now as it's gone to *. Definitely a new years resolution to join the local MMA gym. Will it happen, only time will tell although have a very busy schedule ahead of me again and with that, it'll probably be next year's NYs resolution hahaha.. I definitely admire anyone who does train in mixed martial arts! Fair * to Yas!

 

MMA - too much for me but kudos to all that do it, it is an excellent martial art. Will I get down to Krav Maga? ...Hmmm?..I hope so - but as you say - who knows? Ok - I'll annoy you mid Jan to get onto it!

 

Having few pints coladas just now then on the Guinness. I'll have it booked tonight to start on Monday then wake up with * have I done haha.

Hopefully will join though in January.

 

This is us lol

 

Started jiu-jitsu in the summer, brilliant sport and some workout. Quite fancy getting into a striking sport so have been looking into Muay Thai which is seemingly really good.

 

Surely you'd use krav maga on the. Instead of talking your way out it? You've trained in that remember, and boxing.

Now your useless ? :/

 

This was a good watch. Turns out most fights don't end up on the ground. Food for thought.

 

I’d love to learn BJJ. Done some boxing when I was young and plenty of street fighting as I grew up

But always wanted to stick in to martial arts of some kind.

 

I quite like Hard 2 Hurt's channel (he's the bald headed guest on this video)..he's an ex cop who doesn't glamourise fighting
