Don't you have some boxing gym or self defense classes? If not for use, then for confidence and fitness. Worked for me.

There are some, 15-minute walk from here, cramped space, I saw them carrying sticks in front of an instructor, so I assume that they have stick-fighting classes lol. I'll check them out:) It's in the richer part of the city, though. I can already imagine the numbers :O Let's hope I can pay it <3 Thanks for the idea!
I’d recommend Krav Maga based on what I’ve read ☺️ If you’re undersized it helps to fight cheap!
It does. I should try that since I live in Israel and it was invented here. :)
If I were smaller than most, I would for sure. I’m much bigger than 99% of people though so just a little jiu jitsu training makes me feel very safe. The important thing is to learn to use the tools you have most effectively
Wait, so bigger people can use jiu-jitsu more effectively? O.o
Generally any grappling is going to favor the bigger person of equal skill. Jiu jitsu uses leverage & intelligence to overcome larger opponents, but if a larger person understands leverage as well, they have the advantage. Usually comes down to who is in better shape & uses their energy more efficiently. You have to keep breathing slow & controlled while rolling around. Good skill for life
Huuuuh! I wonder if there are any Krav Maga lessons in my country, lol.
Ok, I googled and it's actually a 25 minute walk from home. I might do it! :3
Yes, you should! Perfect warm up walk for eye gouges & nut kicks 😂
I googled eye gouges and it's horrible T_T
So many horrors await
😂😂 not something u want to try on friends, but if you are really being attacked it is karma 😉
Have u tried jiu jitsu? Great for ptsd, helps me
Did two years of Muai Thai then decided I wanted something less punchy and more huggy. Did one year of BJJ but quit because the closest team with people in my weight category is an hour away by bus, and I could not choke out people with necks thicker than my thighs.
Hahaha, that’s cool you are well trained 💪
I’m one of those thick necked people that walks into a jiu jitsu gym with no training & can compete with everyone. Nothing fair about natural size & strength, my cardio sucks though 😂
