Muay Thai training since 1995. Must admit if I get to thine gym 2-3 times in a week it is good going these days. Usually only get a private session in on a Saturday mor ing with my oldest son now. He is 6 and been doing MT a year.

 

Check out the Muay Thai thread mate in the Lounge. Some great fights I have posted on there if you like you Thai boxing authentic.

 

Chok Dee!

Used to do kickboxing and bjj. Haven't done anything in over a year now.

 

I'd like to start Krav Maga (though not technically a martial art)

Krav maga is mental, sparred with a guy for a few weeks experienced in it, he was crazy, think it took him alot of self control not to break my neck haha.

 

I love Muay thai, i try to do it as much as i can, fast head kicks can be a killer sometimes

 

To be honest i love No-Gi BJJ. I mean i love kickboxing (American) but BJJ is my preferred i think

Yeah bjj rocks, I'm not so into striking. A decent ground game is like a violent (albeit slightly homoerotic) game of chess . Never used a gi.

 

Something incredibly satisfying when you spar with someone of a similar experience (or better) and are able to counter/reverse submissions!

 

Sponsored Arbtalk punch-up anyone?

Ive always said that BJJ is like chess, they move, you counter the move. (hopefully)

 

Haha my girlfriend always says its like man love on a massive scale, which i can see (untill they beat your face in)

 

well what does it all come down to? you can only strike for so long untill you get some crazy wrestler who will take you to the ground. Then BJJ is all you have!

 

plus i dont like being punched lol

I earned my black belt in wado ryu karate, years ago. Have also experienced kickboxing, judo and boxing. Not really kept any of it up, although i keep thinking about a go at boxing again.

Its so hard to be commited when other things take more importance isnt it?

I try to go every night but lucky if its 3 times a week now!

B.J.A from 16 to about 25 . ( started when the Bruce Lee films first came out ) . Gave up Judo as was interfering with quite competitive squash . Then a several years later a road traffic accident interfered with my life and now I'm buggered !
