Hey, all. I've been thinking about taking martial arts up again and I want to know which you would recommend
American boxing, muay Thai, bjj, and Kali are the most practical if you ask me

Or you could buy a gun and bullets. And then be able to wreck any karatenigger, kungfuweeb, some nigga thinkin' he's Tony Jaa, etc.

you dont just do martial arts to fight some thugs on a street
the biggest part of martial art is improving your character and mentality
>>24151659
even if you have a gun and bullets, I can come to your house when you sleep and kill you.
you must use strategy.

What does a gun have to do with martial arts?

the gun is an extention of the hand.

if you want to practice MMA just so you can kick other guys asses then you got it wrong
MMA is about learning self-respect and getting rid of your fears and insecurities.
like some famous martial artist said, when you kick the other guy on the ring you dont do it just to kick his fucking ass off, you do it to kick away all your fears and insecurities.

But so is martial arts. Maybe if you're interested in starting hunting or target shooting you should take up martial arts instead.

>Train hard, but not care about belt progression
Do you think they'll let me join at an intermediate level, and just go there to exercise and chat to people

Really depends on what kind of dojo they are. If they are a McDojo, chances are they won't because muh teknik and muh honor and spirit. If they are more like a gym or a fighting school then probably, yes.
