If you had to choose one, which one would help you more in a fight?

We are reaching levels of cuckery that should not even be possible.

Cardio, a wise man never fights unless defending something.

a tiger would absolutely annihilate a black/grizzly bear
no contest

When you say bodybuilding I take that as literal bodybuilding. Meaning, you workout one body part a rep, the way you lift the weights isn't with explosiveness, but with slow and control motions, contracting your muscles with each and every rep, you do little to no cardio, and the little cardio you do is waking at a brisk pace on a treadmill or stair master for 15-20 minutes, and you eat a caloric surplus so you're constantly carrying around unnecessary fat and mass which makes you slower and takes up more oxygen.

When you say Yoga/taichi + cardio, well, yoga speaks for itself, same does taichi, but when you say cardio, that can mean a variety of things, like explosiveness, sprints, hill sprints, stair sprints.

You didn't mention anything about weight difference or size, so I'll make a safe bet here and say the bodybuilder and taichi guy or within 40 pounds of each other, and you didn't mention anything about fighting experience, so I have to assume the bodybuilder knows absolutely nothing about fighting and has never done something as simple as sparring with buddies before.

Yoga/taichi + cardio guy wins 9/10.

Black bear maybe, but a grizzly absolutely not.

Sure buddy

nah man

Thaichi is shit for self defense. Yoga is great for you, but not for self defense. Cardio is in the right area code, but there's a difference between sprinting away from a situation and just being able to jog moderately for a very long time. Of those options, bodybuilding is superior.

this really only applies if the other guy is a literal hulking beast and you're just a 170lb martial autist

but its true. ive seen people like this

Prime cain would kill anyone in the manlet divisions m8

Now do BJj vs. bodybuilding

>stay grounded which will help you stay on your feet in a fight
yoga isnt takedown defense, no amount of just balance is going to keep you on your feet
>tai chi allows you to understand movement and allow you to use your opponent's momentum against them
ok this is bait. literally no one thinks this and thats not how tai chi works

tai chi is a meme. maybe it wasnt when a guy got introduced to it when they were 3 and trained daily until he was 50, but nowadays its pure cuckoldry

reminds me of the karate vs "ki" master.

Op here, Assuming both fighters are of similar height and weight, both have been training their respective crafts for atleast a year, and have similar prior fight experience....

the tai chi guy is going to understand movement and have much better control, be more fluid and loose, which are very important in combat

the bodybuilder will more than likely be very stiff from heavy isolation exercises
and have sub par cardio compared to taichi guy

all of you cucks who are saying the bodybuilder would win are the same people who lift 20lbs too heavy and squat just above paralell so they can "hit prs"

>they still think that doing gym workouts will do anything to benefit them besides aesthetics

>they dont understand that control and functionality are the most important things to think of when it comes to fitness

enjoy arthritis in your early 30s

>this much assblasted damage control

>choose one
>posts 3 things
dude are you retarded? absolute state of fit these day...

It depends how the fight goes. After a certain point, having huge muscles is going to interfere with how hard you can throw a punch, you lose the 'snap' that someone a bit smaller has. But if you're someone who's natty limit you could hit really hard. Issue is after like 30 or so seconds swinging full contact you will gas out and be helpless. If both of you are just swinging at each other like retards and you catch him he's probably going down. If it goes to the ground you have a massive advantage because of weight.

Now if the cardio guy just avoids the heavier guy until he tires out, then he can win. Taichi is a meme.

Also have to take into account:
How skilled at fighting are these guys, how light is the cardio guy etc

Many cases of the bigger guy getting tired and btfo by a smaller guy with great cardio

in a street fight, probably bodybuilding as your force generation will be greater than that of someone who doesn't lift.

In a competitive fight, e.g. for sport, cardio cardio cardio and more cardio

higher maximal strength = better force generation, so the bodybuilder will hit harder, which in a street fight assuming both parties are of an equal skill level and have no formal martial art training, is probably enough for the win.

In anything competitive where both fighters have received training, it probably comes down to who has the better engine, so cardio is king.

Pacing matters too. A guy like Yoel Romero doesn't have fantastic cardio by any measure but will explode on you if you open yourself up to anything at all
