I am thinking of doing martial arts, I just don't know which one to take. I don't want to do Krav Maga because I've heard it's not really even a martial art. Any one have any recommendations?

Judo and ju-jitsu are pretty fun, taekwondo too.

I've done Judo for 8 years, Ju-jitsu for 5 and taekwondo for 1.

Result of that is fucking weird feet (when i don't wear shoes i stand all the time like pic related, so the skin as a shape), great balance, excellent reflexes, being flexible as shit.

Judo is fun as fuck. Particularly if they do a decent amount of newaza

Boxing and kickboxing here 7 years
>>
>>37748011
Judo and kyokushin karate here.
I recommend trying a few martial arts out, like take a few proof lessons. It's all a personal preference imo, they're all effective and fun

Although avoid those ghetto schools (usually kickboxing/ muay tai) since they'll just try to fuck with you before anything else

I used to do kickboxing. It was a lot of fun, and hard as hell. But I've dislocated my shoulder to many times, so I had to quit. Having your shoulder pop out when doing light hooks during sparring fucking sucks. And then you're sore for a month with almost no mobility.

I would try BJJ, if it wasn't for my shitty shoulder.

nice bait

I feel ya senpai. I used to have these random points in my life where I honestly wouldn't mind getting in a fight. No, I'm not some retard who thinks it's a good idea, I'm a pacifist really, but I craved the rush. Alas, all areas I've lived have been way too good for that. Never had a serious confrontation ever.

So now I just started boxing and I can beat on people for a while and get beaten, all in accordance with a gentleman's agreement. Shit's pretty cool.

I'm jealous as fuck. Closest school to me is 2 hours away. If this is an option near you OP then I strongly recommend it
>>
>>37747456
I'm with you OP. I haven't been in a fight since high school, don't see myself getting in to one.
