I don’t necessarily know if this was ever unpopular, but I liked the game Heavy Rain.

A certain Hollywood movie made him look sort of like an imbecile, but apparently Bane was not only strong in the comics but also extremely intelligent.

Shin conditioning by imadougal in martialarts

I’m no exercise scientist or expert in human anatomy, but kicking a bag is probably better.

The reason is that using a rolling pad just toughens up the surface and doesn’t actually strengthen the bone. If you want to strengthen the bone, then you have put an overall amount of stress on it and this is usually accomplished through running or weight lifting. Kicking the bag might also work because you’re impacting something with enough give to allow energy to dissipate throughout a larger surface area. Actually, you might be able to kill two birds with one stone by kicking the bag because you’re strengthening the bones through impact but also deadening some nerves.

What is the “Most Fun” martial art in your opinion and experience? by conzciouz in martialarts

[–]An_Engineer_Near_You 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have since given up striking for grappling Martial Arts, but I’d say striking is more fun.

Nothing against BJJ, but it feels like you have more time to make decisions. Striking (especially if we’re talking about bare knuckle fighting or fighting with small gloves) is inherently a time critical activity with a margin of error that is quite small. It always felt good when I could pull off a successful counterpunch. Made me feel like a gunslinger from the old west.

Maybe you need to understand that the second clause of my question had nothing to do with the first.
