damn, I fully intended to chide everyone for being cruel to a whole sub culture that probably is totally sick of it... But instead I have the following to offer. Dwarves and the martial arts? Hell yes! They are ALL about axes. paul who has just suffered yet another political correctness fail.
Yeah it sucks being under 6ft. Although my sifu is about that height and he is POWERFUL. Also while I do enjoy training against the two 6-footers it seems I have more trouble in chi sao with the 8 year old because they're more relaxed and hence their arms (though short) tend to slip into even the tiniest gaps in my defences. I could overpower easily them but like my aikido teacher once said: "I always liked it when Ando sensei made me work with the tiny little japanese girls. It gave me a chance to focus on doing perfect technique rather than using force."
I'm taller than you?? Wow I feel accomplished I'm usually the short/small one 5'4 and 107lb Just to give you a picture the ppl they picked for me to spar for my black belt (roughly same size but higher skill) were 3 freshmen and 1 eight grader but they're all guys so w/e
I don't feel I NEED to be bigger, I just don't feel that big. It's only when I see someone else the same size I realise.
You're not far off the size of these behemoths. http://cdn0.sbnation.com/entry_photo_images/2190199/ufc141poster1-500x718_large.jpg
I'm not quite 19 stone yet haha I would like to be 17 stone, I feel that is a good size for my height. I am still pretty flexible and agile though, I must be gifted lol (I know my arms are double jointed which makes arm bars pretty difficult)
How much is a stone anyway??? Oh nvm looked it up it's 14 pounds. That would make me like 7.5 stone haha I'm small but i'm a girl so its all fun
