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. |
