Picking fights with prison gangs.

This is not in any particular order...

 

- All Muay Thai training

 

- All Sambo, BJJ, Judo, Shooto training

 

- All Kali/Escrima/Arnis training

 

- All Wrestling training

 

Personally BJJ is top of my list, pick a heavy handed partner and those chokes really start to hurt.

 

In what way is kali or escrima intense, I always see that as the relaxing part of the night because they're not that physically taxing.

Impact training really doesn't have a place in the arts on the big picture. The "shock" techniques that you describe, can kill you due to internal soft tissue damage - if executed with perfect timing and technique. The premise of high level training, is to learn proper timing when attacked for muscle contraction, that protects you and your body against soft tissue damage and also how to execute perfect shock techniques. Although this type of training for us was labeled "no contact," I assure you there's plenty of contact. I would wake up the next morning after team training with Black and Blue welts/bruises all over my body - and never even knew I was being hit the night before...!

 

Secondly, the type of training you suggest will most certainly catch up with you in your later years... It's also not as realistic as you might think it is in a real altercation, or teaches you the wrong concepts of fighting of absorbing the impacts instead of properly deflecting them with proper timing and technique. When you really need the arts/training, it will all come together for you very effectively...
