That’s not really healthy. Better to just fix your diet and hit the gym in some lightweight gear...

Exactly.

If you dress in heavy layers or use those special sauna suits, you're really just wasting water.

Sure, you sweat a ton, but you aren't actually burning fewer calories.

Like Sam Roberts said, you'll lose more weight the right way.

Besides, this sub isn't even meant for these kinds of questions, so I just gave her some quick advice (and a better link 😉). @ BlackMAgic - don't get worked up over nothing, I didn't see anything particularly brilliant in what you wrote

Hey everyone,
does anyone know where I can pick up an arm wrestling table and what the damage is going to be?
Thanks.

Is there any girl out there who goes to that kickboxing club over at the downtown YMCA near the waterfront? I’m looking for some honest feedback on the vibe there.

We've got training right before them, a few of them show up (some are actually pretty cute)... their coach is that guy from Big Brother

Look, I know the guy’s a coach, but what does a session actually look like? What are we talking about here? Is it just pounding heavy bags and shadowboxing all day, or do they get into actual sparring? And what about the warmup and everything else? Does anyone actually know the drill?

I haven't bothered reading any of the previous posts here, but I am curious about one thing: is there anywhere in the city where one can train Muay Thai? Much appreciated!

Yes.
Now go back and read the thread to find out where.

You should check out www.mustang.com—they're located over in the Lincoln Park area, where I train myself. The coach is actually a national champion in Muay Thai... the crew is great, too. It’s intense work, though—there isn't really any messing around, just a ton of hard work and discipline. I guess that's just how it goes if you want to get good.🙂

Hey everyone, I was wondering if it's possible to completely lose certain acrobatic skills you've mastered—like a backflip, for example—if you don't practice them for about a year, perhaps due to an injury or something similar? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance. 😕😕

Everything is being written in the headline. I’m looking for some advice here... Thanks.

I don't know why I even bother posting here. It feels like shouting into a void most days. I try to bring up actual points, maybe spark a real conversation, but half the time it’s just mindless noise. Honestly, sometimes I think I’m just wasting my own time. My bad. I’ll probably do it again tomorrow, though. Typical me. kaže:

You won't forget. But look, the other guy is just a couple of socks compared to you—his physique is nothing, and his risk of getting hurt is way higher. So, watch your step.

How does one go about registering a kickboxing club—specifically, what kind of paperwork am I looking at? I’ve never actually trained professionally in a gym setting; my knowledge was forged on the job during my time with the State Patrol—which, frankly, provided a much more visceral education than any classroom could. Given that background, is it legally possible for me to register a club solo, or am I required to bring on a certified instructor to handle the actual training sessions? Since I spent my service years under the direct supervision of seasoned professionals, I have the practical foundation, but I want to ensure I'm following the rules. Furthermore, is there any way to test for rank advancements without being an official member of a registered club? My core motivation—the North Star guiding this entire endeavor—is to provide an alternative for kids today. It’s heartbreaking to see how easily they fall into bad habits—smoking, drinking, and the sheer accessibility of drugs—all because of the subtle, often unconscious influence of modern society and the media. I want to offer them discipline instead. Essentially, I am seeking guidance from someone who actually knows the ropes—someone who can give me a straight, no-nonsense answer. Thanks in advance.🙏

Let me make this quick: I'm looking for a kickboxing, Muay Thai, boxing, or whatever else similar club near Spanish, Texas. Anyone know of anything decent around here?

Boxing at the local gym, maybe near the rowing club area...👍 ☕

Just a topic for my fellow residents here in Karlovac, though I'll leave it to the moderator to move this wherever it belongs if necessary...

I’m hitting the gym regularly these days, but I’ve reached a point where I want to pick up a specific martial art to complement my weight training...

Could someone please list the various combat sports available here in Karlovac—just one per line—along with their websites or contact info if they have them? I’m particularly drawn to Japanese martial arts, though I suppose I wouldn't mind exploring other disciplines if the right place comes along...

One positioned beneath the other, within a single line 😬
