Samurai

SANDBAG!!!!

Girls can't be more flexible than guys , they ARE more flexible

I am more into japanese styles so judo is your solution

I'd recommand kyokushin , but Aikido si fine

How generous

It's nice to know how you are incorporating elements of three styles together , way to go man

Ok.. So you need training tips , right ?? If so then I understand from what you have mentioned in your original post that you are not that good in standup fighting , work more on the bag start with 2 minutes drills and then constantly increase the time . One thing I find useful to increase stamina is to run 480 meters 5 times per day ( actually I do 13 ) find a partner to spare with , work on one and only one combination of moves , and finally ask your instructor on what to do If you feel more comfortable on the ground , train to keep the fight there ( train more on takedowns )

I actually said it once to my Sensei , next thing i knew is me doing 50 push ups

Maybee he should speak japanese

Just wanted to know the percentage of boys / girls in this forum

Welcome

Welcome Aaron

Things in my schools go pretty much the same as Meguro mentioned except that we do more stretching and worm ups ( 20-->25 minutes ) and we don't do kata all the times

Fight of the millennium .

Welcome

Typical Muay Thai session I train regularly in kyokushin 4 days/week , hour & half --> 2 hours/day . We start with worm ups 15 minutes , stretching 15 minutes , push ups , sit ups , press ups and then the real training starts the instructor //* That would be me *// gives combinations of techniques to do on air , usually we start with punches and low kicks and we end up with punches & high kicks , then we do the same techniques with a partner with and without pads , sparring , bag work , full contact sparring and/or kata

Everyone learns from his mistakes , I mean , no matter what the result is winning or loosing , when the tournament is over , YOU must evaluate yourself , how you fought & the mistakes you made to work on avoiding them in the future . Generally , first tournaments are fear killers , and they serve as a strting point , not this thread OSU

Nice article indeed

Depends on the art and the instructor , nothing more to say

Karate stances are effective for karate-kas only , it takes years for a karate-ka to master his stances , you do not expect from a wrestler to spend years in stance training that may or may not work

Hehehehe.... Well then he just had to say it

Sempai actually -Nidan- .. My sensei - head instructor- rarely shows up so basically I am running the school , black belts - including I - train regularly with Sensei every Sunday at 8:00 A.M.
