Anyone else into martial arts? Or just plain love to punk, kick, strangle people

Have you seen this vid? Maybe you could pull one of these off someplace and get your name engraved in the internets.SaiyajinNoOuji said:Not very good at doing submission moves nor have I ever had the chance to do any ground and pound. Oh well though... maybe one of these days!
This probably consisted of pulling out your stress card when the instructors started to yell at you!Vampire_Hunter_Bob said:Did and learned Army Combatives, however that isn't a traditional martial arts.

I've wrestled around with a few BJJ guy's and I hate those arm bars! Then again that was when I was really young and not as experienced. Not very good at doing submission moves nor have I ever had the chance to do any ground and pound. Oh well though... maybe one of these days!

I agree but once it gets into a real fight most of that stuff goes out the window and then its time for the cheap shots. To the throat, balls, under the nose, etc etc.billdog said:Ha, submissions are fun in pure grappling, in a real fight though I think accumulated damage due to strikes is much more effective before going for a sub. Wrestling complemented with BJJ is a nasty mix, they were meant to be crosstrained together. The top control, base, conditioning in wrestling is such a steal though,great sport.
I hear its pretty brutal at first.... im a masochist for harsh training. I guess its the macho man dumb gene or something.Death May Die said:5 years Professional Wrestling training.
