    since i started doing MMA i dont care about lifting heavy weights anymore, not like before anyway i just do it once a week full body. Focusing more in conditioning workouts that leave me without breath, trying to fight fatigue. best feeling than being sore.

      This is the evolution every man goes through, realising that being huge (especially as a natty) is not ideal and being lean, able to fight and muscular is the best option

          At no time in human history or prehistory was there a single war found with hands and feet. Fighting was never employed to subdue hunting prey nor to fight off predators. Fighting without tools is a deeply unnatural activity for our species, our bodies are soft without external shells and our musculature is weak and meant to sustain our bodies in upright position, not to exert energy. Our hands are designed for fine manipulation for fistfighting, if you ever threw a bare knuckle punch you know how that shit fricks up your wrist and fingers. Fighting was historically reserved for symbolic and ritual purposes, like sports competitions or gladiator entertainment enacted by slaves. It's a subhuman activity for the weak.

          You're right for the most part but martial arts translate well into combat because you're essentially training to use your own body as a physical weapon. If you lose your weapon in combat you'll have a better chance to recover and remove yourself from direct harm if you can wrestle an opponent out of the way to make an opportunity for you to run.

          However, everyone else is coping by not accepting the truth that humans are tool builders and we've been bashing in animals skulls with rocks and stabbing things to death just as long as we've thrown punches and performed the earliest "judo" throws. Train to use a club, knife, gun and throw a medicine ball with great force (i.e. imitating bashing a heavy object into an opps cranium) along side throwing a punch.

          We're built to kill by any means necessary. Limiting yourself to your body only is gay and naive. Even world class fighters understand the power of numbers and the fact that an opponent with a knife automatically has a black belt in murderjitsu and that all the training in the world will still leave you battered, bruised and potentially maimed or dead.

      kek there is truth to this. I started training MT years ago as a complete social moron with 0 confidence and it really helped a lot for this.
      But I'm still a fricking ghost outside, people just see me as a weak dyel even though I could Rekt most of them. They just don't respect me based on my aspect.

      So I started lifting, which I've always considered 'superficial/useless/shallow' because I see the huge importance that people actually put on the image, and how much it affects our everyday life

            It's not better in any way. Any sane person understands that repeated blows to your body and head are bad for you. Every blow to your head causes brain damage and this damage is accumulative. Martial arts are fine if you only do light sparring with people who have control over their autism and strength. The rest of the workouts feel very rewarding and are great for building endurance and strength, but fighting is moronic.

        I train muay thai and bjj, injuries are common, especially sprained ankles and wrists, foot injuries, finger injuries, etc. Not to mention the arthritis, muscle tightness, lack of finger flexibility and joint inflammation that the older guys get from repeated motions and trauma for actual decades.
        If you want to become really good at fighting, you will get injured sooner or later and it will wear your body down.

          All those people you know with injuries from BJJ and Muay Thai would be injured doing any other physical activity as a hobby (lifting, rock climbing, running) because they don't know how to pace themselves or properly recover. I guarantee you.

          If you think more people get "worn down" from doing BJJ/Muay Thai compared to lifting (snap city), rock climbing (arthritis), running (destroyed knees), you are delusional.

      >sidenote, I hate how movies/TV shows get ''debunked'' nowadays with ''fighters have no muscle so muscular actors are dumb'' because half those complaints I see are against actors with actual MMA/fighter physiques, it's like non lifters can't tell between that and bodybuilder huge and just see muscle

        Belts in bjj are such a fricking meme.
        Coaches intentionally don't let students get higher belts to keep their livelihoods because the faster someone gets to black belt the more likely they are to open their own gym so they make someone train for iver a decade for something they could earn in less than 5.
        Also a black belt that never competes os inferior to a blue belt that competes all the time.
        People think that because it takes so hecking long it means anything but all it means is that you really know nothing about what you practice and settle for only what you are told and because you know nothing coaches can squeeze your money for longer.

          Yes because if you promote your students too quickly you are running a McDojo and are ruining the sport. In a martial art like BJJ where there's a lot of live training, you can expose fake blue belts very quickly.

          So you are correct but your reasoning is completely moronic. If you think I'm wrong, make your own gym and promote everyone to blue belt in 6 months and see how it goes for you.

      Being able to fight is like lifting heavy, you need to actually lift heavy.
      Sure you don't need to spar hard every day but if you never do it you don't actually have to skill required for fighting and fighting is very high intensity so you need to do it with intensity to know you actually can do it under a high stress high intensity situation.

    If you're not competing and therefore don't have to stick to a weight class, what's wrong with packing on muscle and training MMA simultaneously? Or, at the very least, maintaining the muscle mass you do have (maybe switch to a 2 day a week lifting regimen) while focusing on improving your skill? Detraining your muscles when you don't need to cut to fit into a weight class seems moronic, unless you're a veritable behemoth you just need to train cardio not willingly become dyel. So what if it shaves 10% off your gas tank, the strength and weight alone make up for it which is why you have weight classes.

      Dyels that don't lift or fight love to repeat the same bullshit they hear on tiktok and say that muscles make you slow when that only happens if you only ever move slow and just showing up to training will make you faster or as of you can't lift explosively and do plyometrics if you have any decent muscle mass as if there aren't tons of bulky guys fighting at the bigger weightclasses.
      Or for the cardio you literally just need to do interval sprints during jogging but the morons don't lift or train martial arts, they just want an echo chamber for their shit opinions.

    I want to back boxing after 5 years not doing it. Was never fantastic as the coaching we had in college (where I did it) was subpar and we didn't do enough sparring. How hard is it to get actually good if you go back at a relatively late age? - I'm 29 now. I feel like I never picked up the fundamentals and while I'm pretty strong, my coordination has always been a weak point. Basically the situation of someone with good pure strength and bodyweight strength but from an unathletic base

      Good enough to beat untrained people, not hard at all, just show up.
      Good enough for competition, kinda hard but you can still do it.
      Read this post and the chain replies, people confuse form with fundamentals, these are the actual fundamentals and if you learn them and get good at them you will get fairly good even if you have seemingly crappy form, obviously if you have good form that's better but even if you have form that looks as good as that of a world champion without these fundamentals you can't fight.
      Read them and look up as much as you can about them and practice them at your gym

          This is usually what separates good from great.
          Aggression, athletism and skills are all required to be really good at fighting and if one fails then the fighter isn't that good.
          Usually people get more defensive because they don't have much trust in their offence and that's usually because either athletism and/or skills are lacking.
          From what you said it seems you are fairly athletic so improving your skills will let you develop more aggression.
          Obviously this doesn't mean that you should just be an angry moron and swing at your opponent, you need all 3 but improving what you lack at lets you improve at the other aspects.

      Everyone in this thread is coping about something. Am powerlifter turned mma fighter since I was arround natty ceiling and am no roidtrenny, so fighting was the next evolution. On that topic I fricked up people at the beginning already by pure physique, instinct and whatever little I had learned as a kid in judo. Being a twink hiding in midgetdivisions doesn't make you a "warrior", it makes you a metagaming homosexual aiming for minors in a vulnerable decision. Being a sole strike- or grapplelet makes you just as much of a homosexual as you can't perform in no rules barred situations and makes you shit bricks when your opponent doesn't adhere to your sheduled dance. The truth is that you need EVERYTHING for MMA, NOTHING IS NOT IMPORTANT! strength, dexterity, fortitude, flexibility, constitution, intelligence/fightiq and even some luck. It all matters. Someone who says otherwise is coping in some way or other and has never actually fought. I see it every weekend sparr where boxers think they are the best - but refuse to fight in anything not under boxing ruleset. BJJ prissies deem themselfes the king of grappling but cry when they get slammed in guard "it's illegal!" as they spread their legs and demand you sit between them.

      Opinion discarded.
      Being able to fight is like lifting heavy, you need to actually lift heavy.
      Sure you don't need to spar hard every day but if you never do it you don't actually have to skill required for fighting and fighting is very high intensity so you need to do it with intensity to know you actually can do it under a high stress high intensity situation.
      >Just sparr light bro you don't want brain damage
      You have nothing to worry about since there is nothing to damage, might aswell tell people to do wing chun.

      agreed, but no need for hard sparring for any moron sub6 months that can't guard and is only there to sandbag for actual fighters. Many striking based gyms do this to cringe newjoins

        Finally, a good post.
        I really wish kosen judo was the mainstream grappling style.
        Bjjhomosexuals overreliance on bottom guard is promoted as it's unique strength when is their biggest weakness and get destroyed by any wrestler because they actually good top control even with their lack of submissions and bjjgays think they have great guard retention when is just that bjj top control is garbage.
        Kosen judo meanwhile is pretty well rounded groundwork having submissions from top and bottom without an overreliance on one thing hindering the rest.
        Even a lot of things that bjjgays think are exclusive to bjj like de la riva, spider guards, butterflies, back takes, sweeps and even berimbolos can all be found in kosen judo from as early as the 20.
        Not to mention that is actually structured and doesn't add new moves every day that are just useless and make the style become a slop of moves.
        Bjj is destined to end as cucked as karate, great style once upon a time but hardly anything of value that many places do better is left.

          Also bjj sissy grappling is too low intensity while wrestling and judo are pretty high intensity without hindering technique and as a result have an inherent strength advantage, kosen judo is the same on the ground, much more intense than bjj rolling.

        Ok, where's the study comparing punch power with people who punch on a weekly basis to people who bench press on a weekly basis?

    There doesn't have to be a dichotomy between lifting heavy and combat sports unless maybe you're aiming for the top of a sport.
    If someone spends 30 minutes a day lifting heavy, they'll probably be top 10% of the population at it in a few years. Same with spending 30 minutes a day with fighting.
    IRL doesn't have weight classes either, so it especially wouldn't matter IRL, unless your bulky muscles are really making you substantially worse at fighting.

Its hilarious bc martial arts SUPER CLIQUEY if you train hard at one gym, go to another and FRICK them up at the new spot, they all got a chip on the shoulder except for the real fighters who are humble. large amoutns of homosexualry in the hobby (like any)
