wrestling, bjj, judo, sambo, boxing, kickboxing, muay thai. Anything else and you should go fuck yourself
Muay thai + BJJ
what should a good beginner bjj program cost?
This, everything else is a meme. But good luck funding wrestling as an adult that isnt a gay fetish club (not even joking).
Depends on the area. Typically its between $100-150 for a few classes per week.
Is krav maga a meme
Absolutely
HEMA.
Why? I thought kike martial art was effective
Krav Maga. Although it's more martial than it is an art. Only one worth learning if you are actually trying to learn how to defend yourself in a fight.
this
>what martial arts...
Concealed carry
Care to elaborate? Does this sport attract bearmode gays more than others?
Wrestling needs huge amounts of conditioning, and the younger you start the better. There's little money to be made outside of tournaments so not really profitable.
Ryozanpaku style is the only martial arts you need, but you should learn some boxing and 1000 years of chinese kenpo too.
ive been trying to learn to box at home by shadowboxing. next week, im going to jump a mexican on the bus, hopefully i win
Well, if you want to be able to hold your own in a street fight, the only practices I would recommend are
Boxing/Muay thai/MMA/wrestling/bjj
Preferably just learn striking, once you're good at it you'll be able to kick the ass of 99% of people in the world. Boxing or Muay Thai is where it's at
You are going to get your ass handed to you by Mexican judo (aka judont know if I have a knife or a gun)
this
That's not how you spell pussy.
BJJ!
because 1) instructors outside israel are shit and 2) 'disabling' someone in the west means going to jail
it was developed to help kikes fight off people actively trying to kill them, not for beta males to fight off a junkie looking for cash for his next fix
IS kung fu any good?
the lack of sparring makes it so you only train to deal with very specific situation and don't take in to account the unpredictability of the opponent
Cope
Fpbp. Pleasantly surprised.
Pic related
not any martial art that involves these elaborate movements like in OP pic
that shit isn't going to work in real life when a young hungry brotha is swinging at you.
Bjj for sure
Agreed.
Am I the only one that finds BJJ overrated as fuck? You’ve got a handful of useful moved which are cribbed from shit like Greco-Roman wrestling and then you’ve got the rest which is useless meme shit. Not to mention that BJJ is basically pointless outside of ground fighting and no matter what any BJJ fags claim, strength and size is the determining factor in most ground fights.
story behind this?
are those muay thai kicks? i want to learn how to kick like this. karate? redpill me user(s)
>strength and size is the determining factor in most ground fights.
This is worth in every fight you moron, but less so on the ground when small one is skilled.
did he die
this move is called " the salmon ", it is very effectiv
magicarp
Not Muay Thai, looks more like TKD
this
That are many type of kung fu. The best known kung fu is tai chi chuan and wing chun. The kung fu have bad reputation for being bad martial arts but think it is mostly because most of practicaner of chinese martial arts don't do much sparring.
Virtually anything that originates from Chinese or Japanese that isn't judo or an obscure variant of tai chi was neutered
anything with regular full contact sparring is worth learning, still some styles will still be more effective than others
I was gonna go for a muay thai and bjj route. I'm kinda out of shape in general, how harsh are they for beginners?
Boxing for self-defense
MMA as a hobby
In a situation where you DONT have your gun knowing martial arts is nice
t. Conceal carrier
extremly...do roadwork and calisthenics for a month before joining
What about Baguazhang, Shaolin Wushu, Taijiquan or other venerable arts from the far east?
Are all these centuries of wisdom and proficiency just worthless to you?
If so, I pity you and your so called "combat sports", which are utterly mundane and unimpressive in comparison.
A Shaolin monk can throw a needle through a sheet of glass and balance their neck on spears.
Any of your faggy UFC guys or boxers do any of that?
No, they just wail on each other like common apes and call it fighting.
No intricacy, no precision and most of all no skill.
If you people are ever unlucky enough to have a grand master of ANY of the arts I mentioned show up at one of your so called fighting venues, then good fucking night to those posers.
Ever seen an 80 year old man fend off several highly trained attackers?
Just have a word with my Sifu lol.
You guys are lucky that true practitioners of true martial arts stand far above your petty prize fighting, or you would become the laughing stock of the world overnight!
Only works in US tho.
Should I learn Krav Maga?
I might get in some big legal troubles for using it though
Or... you know, in a situation where maiming/killing someone is maybe a tad inappropriate?
Like some guy slaps your gfs ass at GameStop, are you gonna pull out your gun and shoot him lmao
Just master the nut shot like Bobby Hill.
Sport boxing or classic bareknuckle boxing?
If sport boxing you will more likely breaking your hands without gloves.
>living anywhere else
You should fix that first.
whats up with israel's army having no grooming standards
Pankration
Looks like a regular side kick combo'd into a jump reverse sidekick, and a reverse side kick. They're from Taekwondo.
No regulatory agency means no certification. Which means any krav instructor could be a fake
> m'lady
Houston girl is that a good thing.
Buy a 1911
>bare knuckle boxing
what fucking field do you live in where bare knuckle boxing is actually a thing? Do you think you're less likely to break a bone if you take up bare knuckle boxing? If you bare knuckle box regularly then you are guaranteed to lose the use of your hands
No Krav Maga is a meme. Go for bjj, judo, wrestling, kickboxing or any other martial arts, where they spar.
wtf is that yujiro?
they're so fucking cheap they can't afford camo or even to dye their uniforms, they're put more money invested to the missiles, white phosphorus and drones. Even though under the obama regieme they got 7 million a day now zionist Trump bumped it up to 10 million tax dollars a day
They rely on Sephardi conscripts and their service rifle was copied from Finnland's copy of the AK. They love to steal (Like plans for nukes for example) and its almost as bad as china
Ignore him, they are a pain in the ass to carry, get a bersa thunder, its cheap and its a clone of james bond's gun
Karate for direct high power striking?
>The 1911?
>Sips prune juice
>That was one hell of a side arm back in the day and I killed 3 krauts, 5 gypies, and 9 japs with this baby
Is that real i thought they were very professional and used the same rifles as the americans(one of the few countries that could)
Jow Forums here
Just because armies use it doesn't mean its not a bad pistol for you, its just that its bad for concealed carry, if you really want to get a compact 1911 like the new agent. For carry get a glock, ppk, not a revolver, and something maybe in 380
>ctrl-f
>no pipe bomb
I am disappoint
So long you don't punch at head with 100% power and do more bodyshot it will more likely fine.
lolno
>Conceal carrier
Is this you?
Tae kwan Do is worth learning if you don’t wanna fight and just wanna do cool spins and shit
The most efficient and effective way to strike with your fists is boxing.
Why? Because it evolved through trial and error (and still does), while stuff like karate was "invented" there is "forms" and a lot of the time the answer to the question "why do we do it like that" is simply "because that's how it's done".
i was talking about israel
The cool spins comine nicely with actual striking martial arts, since TKD is about gaining momentum and then doing jack shit with it.
For women, BJJ. Odds are if she's in a fight with a man, he's trying to take this to the floor for non fight-related injuries, and BJJ would be the best thing for this situation and for her stature.
For a man, in descending order:
Wrestling,
Judo,
Muay Thai,
Kickboxing,
Boxing,
BJJ,
Everything else is bullshit.
Nope, Tae Kwon Do.
TKD is flashy and looks cool but save for a few kicks, is largely ineffective.
Muay Thai is the ultimate stand-up combat sport. Just learning the basics of the clinch will give you a significant advantage in a street fight
>not knowing this pasta
Best self defense is mental.
(a) Dont let your ego get you hurt. Most fights are avoidable. Learn to walk away from escalating situations. Some nigger calling you a pussy is not worth getting killed or arrested over. Despite what they say, cops dont give a shit who threw the first punch. You're both getting booked.
(b) Numbers matter. I dont care if you're Seal Team 6, any 2-3 determined attackers will take you out.
(c) Weapons matter. Again I dont care if you're seal team 6, a guy with a knife will kill a guy without one 99 times out of 100. And dont beleive the Hollywood BS, a guy who knows how to use a knife will not do wide sweeping, easily blockable slashes. They will charge you with their head down and stab you repeatedly in the abdomen until you are dead. Prison method.
(d) Never get into a car with a guy pointing a gun at you. A person who will shoot you for running would have killed you anyway, and probably taken their time. Plus, its really hard to shoot a moving target with a handgun.
(e) If you have to fight, then the MA listed here will serve you well. I just recommend that if you get a guy down, then run away. Beating a guy brain damaged may sate your primal instincts at the time, but your life will be ruined afterwards when the lawyers get at you. That niggers not worth it man.
More in depth summary of the above.

Wu, is that you?
its still very impracticable to learn. Standard boxing will teach more technique, and will be far easier to find a good gym for compared to bare knuckle. like seriously, do people teach this shit? I guarantee the only """gym""" will be some boomers garage in Kentucky
What does Jow Forums think of Tang soo do? I've never seen it mentioned once in these threads before, is it useful?

I thought you were talking about the 1911
Anyways Israel mostly depends on arab, shepardi, and lower class jewish conscripts.
Trump is buttbuddies with BiBi so he's sending our boys in green to be the Israeli Foreign Legion, a high ranking officer even said "Our troops should be ready to die for Israel" for gods sake
Hi. Boxing. Learning strikes is ideal, because that's how you slap people's shit. Also boxing teaches you speed, flexibility, how to actually punch someone in the face without them getting up, and, my favorite part of learning it, dodging. Once you weave inside of the classic right haymaker everyone opens with, 95% of people are putty and will drop with your next hit. If you want to KILL someone though, just hit them in the balls and beat their skulls in like every criminal ever. It's not hard. Think about it. How do criminals fight? They don't box, they just force someone to the ground and kick/punch their head/neck till they die. You just gotta do it first. For non-lethal though, boxing is your safest bet for your time and money.
Obligatory copypasta of objective truth:
God tier:
>boxing
>folk/free
Good tier:
>judo
>sambo
>muay thai
>greco
Niche meme tier:
>aggressive buttscooting (now known as bjj)
Trash tier:
>everything else
Super special double trash tier:
>aikido
If you disagree you have no fucking idea what you are talking about.
do you train any of these besides boxing
All but sambo, but have many sambo sparring partners. It is basically a mix of the other good grappling arts.
currently only doing bjj, would strike but worried about concussions
is it worth going to boxing and muay thai classes if i wont spar
should mention there is a difference between combat sambo and sport sambo if you want to look into it, they both go in good tier.
Every MA that doesn't spar is an infallible rule. Learning the basic punches and combos, or clinche and strikes in muay thai isn't going to do much good until you use them like when you roll for bjj. You should know trying to americana someone in a drill is way different that the resistance and positions you will hit while sparring.
>is it worth going to boxing and muay thai classes if i wont spar
tl;dr is no. You should also look into doing a well-rounded grappling art. Bjj is a niche meme, but a good thing to learn for 1v1 situations as a supplement to an actual grappling art. Bjj guys are laughably poor at scrambling and helpless on their feet when compared to say folk/free.
Every MA that doesn't spar is a waste of time is an infallible rule*
thanks user
Not user, but as long as youre wearing protective head gear and you're sparring with someone that knows that you're novice, you should be fine.
MT/Sanda/Sambo + bjj is god tier, trust me
This. If it has full contact sparring, it's good. You may say, "oh, MT is better for X, Sanda has a better transitioning to MMA" etc., but if there's sparring, it will probably be good.
I was a tang soo do black belt when I was 11 years old and I'll be the first to admit that anyone my age size and weight who'd spent a year in boxing or wrestling would have beat my ass.
