My background is pretty much nonexistent. I dabbled in Kempo and Tae Kwon Do, but never really got anywhere. I'm moving to a city where I can...
Oh, and I'd also like to learn techniques that help me fight people of any size. I forgot about that, but it's important.
Yeah, that's a good point. I just hate running, lol. I guess I'm not that small. I'm 5'8", 150 lbs, if I cut fat, I'd probably be at 135. Mostly...

Fight Science had a GREAT idea and messed it up completely. Now I'm obsessed with measurements. So is there any way of finding out which kicks...
Haha haha you guys are great. So what I meant is in the arena,but other critiques are welcome too. I also hated the point sparring, especially...
That's about it.
Alright, I know I *shouldn't* try to teach myself, but I just can't help it. I eventually want to compete in MMA. I don't need to learn anything...
