It's thai, so presumably not.

In this clown world, absolutely.

After several years, I've officially rejoined a Thai Boxing gym to rediscover my ancient, long-dormant warrior spirit, buried as it's been under microplastics and a slop diet.

The only thing left is to figure out how to receive qualified medical treatment without health insurance heh

Holistic doctor heh

>Spent nearly $500 on equipment so far
Ok, maybe this was overkill but hear me out:

Say you have one pair of boxing gloves for $60 and another one for $150. My thoughts are, if the $150 gloves make even a 5% difference between me breaking my hand or wrist or not it's worth the investment, same for the shin guards, mouth guard etc.

I'm in good shape but am genetically cursed with small hands, very thin wrists and forearms, a weak jawline and I'm old with no health insurance on top of all that. I can't really afford to take chances by being frugal from the position of inexperience.

There's the potential that I just dumped a ton of money into functionally identical products too, sure.

Brands don't mean anything these days. Should have checked where they were manufactured, ect.

>>77278
Why not buy health insurance?

tldr

>buy product from store
>return it the next day because it was very bad (the velcro would pull the stitching out on contact)
>they charge me for it again with the new stuff I bought
We used to be a country fr, guess I have to go back to the store again. Fug's sake

My shins hurt lol

lol shinhurt

my back is covered in acne

My shins didn't hurt as bad last night heh, will probably focus on stretching and bodyweight exercises tonight nonetheless so I can heal up for tomorrow.

Brutal. I had acne as a lad including a huge ass wart on my nose that I never dealt with for some reason until recently (even with WEFlation in full swing it was only $200 to get taken care of ffs). I'm showering nightly so hopefully I can stave off the dermatological jew for a time.

my back is fucked, there's always acne on it, I think its due to sitting on chairs, my back being pressed against them causing some form of abrasion or not allowing by back to breathe or some shit

I am growing stronger heh

>>78440
Maybe you have an allergy to the chair material. If I touch pleather I break out.

>>79590
nah, i think it could be something to do with my liver, i hunch and have done for years, i think the compression and lack of space for my liver has resulted in it not being the right size, its a good thing livers can regenerate though, either that or im just high T

Would dat fighting style work well in a street fight or irl fight?

>>79621
I think combined with defensive wrestling it's much more practical than most others. The "techniques" are somewhat minimal, it's more about just punching, kicking and elbowing sh*t hard as heck and with good form heh

Grapples are gay and everyone knows it! People want to see some Jackie Chan shit where a guy beats some dudes with a mop and bucket or something. Mr. Grapple Grapple would just get the shit kicked out of him while he's on the floor if he were in such a situation, and the floor would be dirty too!
