Thinking about taking Krav Maga

[Lestat]

ok lemme clarify

im not doing this because I need to defend myself
I would bet I'll never use it in real life

I'm doing it for the following reasons
1) I find the training techniques interesting
2) its a good workout (they pre fatigue you before starting training, and encourage you to attend the NEXT classes warm up drill).

This is stuff that is used by our FBI, law enforcement, and others, not exactly a trendy thing.

Make sure to tell the media this.

Sorry broly, but this fighting/MMA/whatever is a recent trend.

BRB, gotta order the next fighting championship on PPV this weekend.

Could not be more trendy. Every jackass I bounced with back in the day was taking that shit.

I'm not saying it's trendy to an fbi agent or a military man or whatever, I am saying it is trendy to anybody who is not.

I think its pretty cool, i think things like Tai Kwon Do are trendy, they made a movie called "The Karate Kid" and what.. 3 shitty sequels?!?!

take the class dude....who gives a shit if it's trendy. maybe one day it will keep you from having your jaw broken or something....plus the other benefits you listed earlier. if you want to do it, just do it.

i keep telling myself i'm gonna do something similar one of these days, but it keeps getting sidetracked

A nice pair of brass-knuckles is all the self defense you'll ever need.

There's nothing wrong with being into martial arts, broly. But at this point in time, fighting/MMA stuff is a trend. You can't deny that.

BRB, gotta get back to watching the all-day Fight Night marathon on TV.

Right on, and I'm not saying it isn't cool. I'm just saying it's popular right now. Get into it man, why not? If I had the money, I'd consider it but only because the competition side of things intrigues me. Also, I want to hit somebody more and more all the time.

and like all trends, people will take the classes and flake out after a few weeks....if you like it, you stick with it.

hell, they just closed a krav maga place in souf philly not too long ago....

Any stupid hick that can't get a job doing anything else and takes a few MMA classes is a fighter these days.
