Great thread and a beautiful post from Mangosteen.
Mightily disappointed with the amount of women coming to Brand's defence. We have the whole MeToo movement highlighting just how common and...
I cannot imagine the attrition rate in American sports. For every Bo Nickal or Jordan Burroughs there must be 10,000 people who drop by the...
I don't think Wallace's methods have ever been billed as a "self defence" system have they? It's a kicking method for combat sports (specifically...
Heh...If I remember correctly, from Van Zandt once of this parish, Bill Wallace's hip replacements actually went really well due to the strength...
Nice. Tachi-ai!!! You might end up wrestling Eddie Hall. :)
After doing the C25K I ditched the ear buds and never listen to anything now. I like being aware of my surroundings, people/bikes coming up...

Added another list to my routine. I've reserved 7-7:30 every morning for some gentle activity time. A bit of stretching, Yoga, a pattern or kata,...
I think some of my favourite sumo is good rope sumo. When it looks lost but a deft pivot or swerve gets the win. This from Wakamotoharu is...
As much as I like watching Enho he's not getting the wins he needs to stay in the top division. I think there just is a size limit issue where all...
Been following sumo for the last 3-4 years when I found out there were (sadly illegal) highlights on Youtube. NHK keep trying to shut them down...
Especially when there are multiple people around who could get involved, grab an arm, wrap his legs, etc. Just going to a seatbelt grip with hooks...
I think something to do with it is the frequency you can see chokes applied in things like Judo (which can have some ridiculously bad choke...
I always thought the "rule" with an RNC (or any blood choke) was squeeze hard for a count of about ten (not ten seconds that's too long) and...
