life of a martial artist?

pee-wee wrestling...
Eager_Neophyte

Hey....Lol....I do pee-wee wrestling. Actually its club wrestling. Our class gets split up into the above 170lb and below 170lb and I get thrown into the above 170lb weight class (barely).

The pee-wee's that I get to grapple with are usually over 6' and 210+. Its a fast learning curve, because if you're not getting takedowns now and then against guys whom are 50 lbs or heavier:

1. You have bad technique
2. Aren't using your head....both literally and figuratively
3. can't apply leverage

Glad to see someone else whose as willing to learn!

Welcome

THIS USED TO BE ABOUT THE LIFE OF A MARTIAL ARTIST.....

click the link i provided on page two, would you?

that is what i mean EXACTLY by "the life of the martial artist", i want to know how one gets into such a life and makes a living and how difficult it is ect...

Yes Jubajii, the better the grammar and spelling the more understandable the message, but to say that unless something is grammatically perfect it is incomprehensible is nonsense. My 1 year old nephew can communicate to me through sounds like "grun..gun" (Meaning :He wants to find his grandma). Communication is two-fold. One person is trying to communicate to someone about the things he is thinking, the other is trying to comprehend whatever form of communication the other is using. If the message is a group of arbitrarily dropped blobs of non-sequitors, thats one thing. If they don't follow conventional procedure on things like punctuation, capatilization, or (to some degree) spelling, that's entirely different. If you are capable of comprehending a message, and if you really are interested in a debate that is based upon logic then you will excuse such mistakes for the sake of a logical debate.

I don't really need to explain this to you, your perfectly capable of understanding this concept, yet you choose to ignore what you know is true. Why?

Tom_Yum,
That's great. How long have you been doing this? Have you noticed a huge improvement? Is it Bjj or more like folk-style (to be honest I don't know what club wresteling is.) I would love to train in a situation like that. Like you say, the learning curve is so much steeper when your training with people considerably bigger and/or better than you. Good Luck with that.

Dangfella,
Just find a dojo and practice alot. Seriously thats all the advice you need here. Just start today.

P.S. Lymphocyte = white blood cell = virus destroying cell in the human body. I'm not understanding what you meant.

Bring him on by to the forum. He'd really raise the level around here.

Wow. I've done the unthikable. I've used the wrong "your/you're".

Is this a joke? Are you intentionally doing the things I'm accusing you of. I would think when someone writes an entire posts about how obnoxious those kind of tactics are, you would drop them for a while. You've once again managed to make three post that in no way contributed to a logical debate. Is your strategy just to keep making short, derogative, and wholly irellevant comments until your opponent loses all faith in humanity?

Your 3 Responses: (Might I recommend you post all these things on one post?)

Post #1: Humorous Response.
Post #2:I read over it a couple times, it makes sense. When two people are communicating. It's person x's job to try and say/write/hand gesture/etc.. what is in his head, and it is person y's job to try and understand that communication. Sorry if that was unclear.
Post #3: Yup. I used the wrong "you're/your" but, I've already talked extensively about why such corrections are not necessarry or helpful.

The "unthikable"? What's "unthikable"? For that matter, what's thikable?



I'm gonna have to thik about that one for a while.

[Eager_Neophyte]

Look up "unthikable" in this forum's search engine. I think you'll find i'm not the first person to use it.

We all make mistakes, Jubajii. Could you please be a little less arrogant now?

Ah, but if X leaves Chicago at 3:30PM on an eastbound train traveling at 135 MPH with 6 scheduled stops of 15 minutes each, and Y leaves New York at 1:25PM on a westbound train traveling at 210 MPH into a 35 MPH headwind, what time will Chomsky eat lunch?
