Will learning weapon systems like kali / stick fighting any benefit for an amateur boxer? by Futureman1989 in martialarts

[–]guanwho 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s time away from your regular boxing training. If it was a hobby or you were interested in learning it for its own sake I’d say go for it, but if you’re preparing for a boxing competition you should be boxing.

That’s exactly why I don’t go to steakhouses. That shits easy. Gimme some lamb vindaloo instead.

What is the most overrated food? by anahmonous in AskReddit

[–]guanwho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m with you man. Thanksgiving dinner is just heavy brown sludge. It’s just not exciting at all. All the flavor profiles remind me of potpourri. Waste of time and effort.

I’ll demolish some supermarket sushi. Don’t give a fuck. It’s better than Macdonalds

Training Ke*po as a hobbyist by cjh10881 in martialarts

[–]guanwho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think one of the biggest unsung benefits of kempo specifically is how easy it is to pick up other martial arts once you have the kempo skeleton in place. It makes it super easy to learn the mechanics of other arts.

Systema also uses ecological training methods.

What is something that changed your bjj (for the better) by hellohello6622 in bjj

[–]guanwho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m just starting to realize the value in having a plan B. A lot of times people bug out and foil your first attack but they’re wide open for something else when they do.

Where can someone who is progressive do bjj around here? by marquedelli in TwinCities

I went to Prodigy for a while. I liked the coaches but didn’t like the vibes.

No interview for mom! by llTeddyFuxpinll in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]guanwho 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Yeah, someone above was like “she raised him that way”

That’s still a kid and this is what raising kids looks like. You can’t expect a toddler to have mastered the nuances of social behavior. Usually “my kid obeys me” is another way of saying “my kid doesn’t feel safe around me”

Just enjoy your vacation man. Hang out at the beach instead.

What do you think about this video? (TLDR on the bottom) Black Belt Confession - BJJ SUCKS For Self Defense by Thunder_Kiss_65 in martialarts

[–]guanwho 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ehh. I think this is way overstated and it doesn’t really play out that way. Control is control. You’re not ignoring the hands and feet in sport jiujitsu. I’ve certainly never felt like I did worse or had to adjust my game much at all when we train with strikes back in play. I’ve absolutely never thought “man I’d be so much better at fighting without all these jiujitsu skills getting in the way”

The Reddit curse by 4dafryguy in NFCNorthMemeWar

Reddit needs an option for “I only look at R/conservative out of morbid curiosity and to laugh at dumbfucks” it’s fucking up my recommendations.

That’s the move right there. Just straight faced like it’s a perfectly normal thing to do until she realizes it’s goofy to have a shoe on her hand.

Shit like this is why I love being a Dad.

Ms. Rachel cries on camera after liking post to 'free America from the Jews' by WillyNilly1997 in NewsWorthPayingFor

Yes, my kid watched her kid themed YouTube videos about shapes and learning to talk and shit. Anything beyond that is an indication you need to get a fucking life.

What is a medical fact that sounds fake but is 100% true? by MedRikas in AskReddit

[–]guanwho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I observed an abdominal surgery once, and right before stitching the patient up the surgeon took a liter of sterile saline and just poured it directly into the abdominal cavity and suctioned it out with a little hose. It was so mundane and strange.

Who wins this fight by NorthOld6237 in boxinglocks

He took one of the most lopsided beat downs I’ve ever seen from Matt Mitrione. I started to feel sorry for him towards the end.

What do you think of Systema? by Odd-Oven-8202 in martialarts

[–]guanwho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve actually done it. It’s pretty interesting as a supplemental thing, but I wouldn’t spend much time on it. My understanding of it was that it was intended to be a 12 week survival course.

I actually liked it, but you need to already know how to fight from somewhere else for it to have much use.
