  1. misinformation is a dangerous thing Sorry, could'nt resist |Mayur|
  2. The only problem I see is with people who make wild assumptions about other arts without having the faintest idea of what they actually are, and when we try to reason with them they are ignorant, in the meantime the people who browse the forums usually get the wrong idea about the arts.... A good discussion is one thing but ignorance is something way out of hand.... |Mayur|
  3. I think this forum is being torn to shreds because of comparisions....... |Mayur|
  4. You join martial arts, you can take care of that weight though there will be problems doing the basics in the beginning, you will become as fit as you had never imagined |Mayur|
  5. And more hollywood It's just a movie mean to entertain Though it does seem BS to us fatherly martial artists |Mayur|
  6. The article is VERY useful I use that method regularly, the punching thing I mean It's not BS, try it urself and see how it is |Mayur|
  7. Hmm, I like Andrew's posts for his aura of debateness Kickchick is VERY informative when she shows her godly words in the health and fitness forums In seriousness I would respect Kensai and Kyle San |Mayur|
  8. If you got the time, go for it I would'nt miss it |Mayur|
  9. It all depends on the range, if a good striker is able to keep the distance using footwork then the striker would win, if the BJJ guy uses footwork and gets close enuff then he can win at his game ie grappling. If you are just a striker then you are in trouble if someone manages to close the gap If you are just a grappler then you would have trouble grappling with 2 opponents for which I would rather consider striking as a better srategy Conclusion - Both are essential, niether is useless, neither should one be neglected under the false impression of the UFC or Bruce Lee who was more of a striker |Mayur|
  10. No you simply can't compare striking and grappling 'cause they are meant for two completely different things The thing which I meant was if I was to train for self defence and I had to choose only ONE thing ie striking or grappling, I would go for striking |Mayur|
  11. I would on the other hand go for something which takes me to the limit of my physical fitness |Mayur|
  12. If I had to choose only one thing then I'd rather be a striker than a wrestler on the street |Mayur|
  13. Yes it is if the other person is more alert will likely finish off the other one before he can realise it, in other words it's awareness training. You can spend years to learn how to kick or punch but they are of no use if you don't have good awareness Overall I'd prefer full contact over point sparring but point sparring does have it's place, in my school we spar for points but it's still full contact only that elbows are not allowed, but low kicks, punches to the face etc are allowed, and it's not semi contact. |Mayur|
