I like doing martial arts.

Do you like martial arts? What martial arts have you done or are you doing?

I sure do.

I like to pretend I know Krav Maga because I saw it in a videogame and watched a few youtube videos on technique. Does that count?


Hue.


In reality I'm as soft as a marshmallow, with low punching power and a gut that hangs over my pants. I always wanted to learn martial arts, but then I made an extremely important discovery: I'm a lazy sumbitch.

I used to do Karate, I was a green belt at my highest point but then left for various reasons. Now? I can probably punch/kick someone but I don't exactly have technique.


My personal favourite? Just smack 'em with the butt of the rifle. AKA the Cadet/Soldier/Riflemans kiss. :P

I have gone to Judo training when I was fifteen.. Only for a year though... And then went to Kendo training when I was eighteen. That lasted three years, before I finally moved to another country..


None of them are really punching stuff though. One of them is throwing people around, the other one is beating a crap out of someone with a bamboo stick.

I actually know Krav Maga!


Started with training in the military and then expanded to y'know, me paying someone to teach me it. It's incredibly awesome I qualified up to Black E-II before Y'know, medical stuff halted my interest in it.

I wrassle, and that's about it. Only went 7-5 this season because I sprained my elbow and well, wrasslin' with a sprained elbow for a month will end up with you having to see a doctor. Basically, the swelling in my elbow got so bad that it was pushing my ulnar nerve (the funny bone, I guess) up, and well, sensory overload. It wasn't that I lost strength in the arm, but that the signals my brain was sending through the nerve to bend my elbow weren't getting through completely. That, and I had a bicep strain during the pre-season. Overall, it was one of the most grueling four months of my life.


Still can't wait for next season.

I have a license to carry a balisong. I think me just knowing how to use a knife is about as self-defense as it gets.

I took two years of Taekwondo up to green belt, I've also taken basic military CQC technique training. I plan on taking jun keet do (JKD) when i have the money because damn martial arts is expensive. I also know kickboxing from my brother because ynot.

And I shoot guns, pew, pew.

 

Oh boy, I didn't know we were allowed to count our shootbangs!


I may not be able to punch stuff, but I do have a CCW license in the state of Florida, and usually carry a Ruger SP101 chambered in .38 with me.

I took Okinawan Kenpo classes when I was like 14~15 and got 2nd place in a state championship but then I just stopped going and got really lazy.


I can deflect punches and remember the most basic-ass techniques but other than that I don't really punch anyone.


I've tried to get into fencing, though, cuz swordplay is fuckin' cool.

I have brown belts in Karate and Jujutsu, though I only still attend the latter.


Kinda sad I've never actually been able to use it outside of sparring, though. Would be interested to see how much it'd affect the outcome of a fight compared to someone lacking training.
