I think every man should learn how to defend himself

The amount of confidence I gained from gassing out in practice after a few min of warmup to hitting pads nonstop for one hour without getting tired is insane (Yes, I spar too).

I'd never ever start a fight with anyone outside of the gym but just knowing that I have a much higher chance of defending myself (or my girl if I'm out with sloot) makes me much more calm in social situations.

Inb4 "just get a gun bro." I don't live in the US atm. And even Jocko Willink, who is a navy seal veteran, preaches the importance of learning self defense so you guys can go fist yourself

Yeah I'm not sure if it's a smart idea to stab someone unless they are coming at you with the intention to kill you, lmao. But actually probably not a bad idea to pull out a knife to make them fuk off if they try to start chit with you.

LOL at not avoiding conflict at all costs but worse case pull out the CCW that trumps all. No pun intended.

If it's not you, then you're dealing with someone who won't care if they stab you.

Even without a knife, a real life fight is nothing like a BJJ gym. Even if the homeless gentleman who accosts you isn't in your weight class, he is still going to fight you.

If you ever get stepped up on while out with a girl, you basically have to decide if her being attracted to you is worth potentially getting stabbed. If you step down, she will know it was the rational choice, but she will lose all attraction to you. If you step up, and it turns out the guy has a knife, gg unless you get lucky. Re: guy in Vancouver who got stabbed outside a coffee shop and his last dying breath in front of his infant daughter was used for TikTok views. Had he been more of a pussy, he would still be alive. It sucks, but it is how it is. You don't know how mentally ill random people are. You're rolling the dice by playing GSP Simulator 2021.
Yeah it's always best to try to avoid fight at all cost, no doubt.

Learning to fight is stupid lol. Your hands and feets are weapons that can kill. And if I'm going to fight you, I'm going to use a real weapon.

I knew a bully in HS who would always get into fights. He was pretty fit and his arms were huge. He used his arms to really batter other students. Once he made a kid bleed all over the hallways. The other time he fought a much older guy on the street. He was pretty much beating people up all the time since he was good at fighting and had the body to do it. So yea, dudes a weapon X.

Disagree with me, fine; but before calling me a fraudster click: https://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showthread.php?t=185252663

Bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable unto all things.
