Welcome (back) aboard.
I was an airdale years ago, don't know jack about boats and knots and junk but I learned stuff about jets and wires...![]()
Mixed Martial Arts, Thaiboxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Combat Submission Wrestling, Jeet Kune Do, Women's Self-Defense, Boxing and Filipino Martial Arts
I was here a few years back, but I couldn't find my account (I thought it was "mercuryturrent"). I used to go on an old MMA board before that, and did a lot of martial arts in High School. I stopped coming here after senior year, I think.
Then I went to college for two years.
Now I've been in the Navy for two years. I'm a Hospital Corpsman; maybe some of the same are around here, hooyah?
I came back for two reasons. I've started up a kickboxing regime again, and Mike Brewer's posts are awesome. I just read about five or six of them. Crap dude, you probably get a lot of thanks for the knowledge and experience you type out here. Thanks from me too.
I don't have a deep well of knowledge or experience to really contribute in a way of advice around here. When I did martial arts, I did it seriously and had a good instructor, but I'm a bum now. BUT, I am a skeptic, and sort of an autodidactic philosophaster, so I like to think I have my head on straight when it comes to understanding what martial arts is, and what it is not. Score one for the level headed around here, though I think we're all on the same bandwagon around these parts anyway.
So far as that training I did: I was a wrestler for six years, went into some submission wrestling, boxed for a short bit, then went into kickboxing at a gym and matches/tournaments around the Atlantic states for three years. Then the college thing.
Cheers folks.

"In all countries where personal freedom is valued, however much each individual may rely on legal redress, the right of each to carry arms - and these the best and the sharpest - for his own protection in case of extremity, is a right of nature indelible and irrepressible, and the more it is sought to be repressed the more it will recur."
