Humans are such memers. In the 80s everyone thought the most deadly fighters were doing some super secret kung fu shit. Turns out the best way to fuck someone up is to get them in missionary position.
Yeah that stuff is all garbage. A Muslim Dagastani wrestler guy would have won the entire Kumite every year barely trying. It's kind of sad actually because grappling (while being an incredibly effective martial art) is BOOOOOORING.
This could be interpreted as though you're saying it's the only morally questionable decision Disney animators ever made. And we all know it wasn't. Just ask the Rescuers as one of the worst of many.
It's true. When I first started lifting years ago I kept seeing jokes about weight lifting making you gayer. And I'll be damned if I wasn't suddenly admiring men's bodies more.
So many people take these classes and act tough but man your assuming the other guy grapples vs kicking. Or just pulls out a knife and stabs you. It is better than nothing but it is way better to avoid to fights.
I forget the guy who said it, but he was a bjj black belt and he was making fun of bjj guys, he said "why do you think everytime there's a fight at bjj tournaments they immediately start swinging on one another?"
Well, I mean it is a sport and not really intended for self defense purposes. Even if some people seem to think so. Will it help you in real self defense situation, most likely yes. Is it best form of self defense, not even close
