You can train for five years to break a brick with your hands or work for an hour and buy a hammer to break a brick.

I'd say the retard is the one looking at what broke instead of what broke it. I don't think I'm going to run from a hammer. Some guy that can set a nail with is palm...

Bruce Lee heresy:
When Chuck Norris was asked if he could take Bruce Lee in a fight he said simply (not exact quote) "I am a trained fighter and a world champion."
Case closed.

some martial arts are pretty stupid. i studied kung fu for 6 years and when i started getting in fights i got my ass kicked. the club i trained at is actually very good as far as traditional martial arts go. the problem is that most of the stuff traditional martial artists practice is bogus and the rest is only useful in particular situations. if you wanna learn to fight practice one of the many types of boxing or MMA. if your dead set on an asian style then find a club that does real sparring... none of that point scoring bullshit the taekwondo guys do.

It depends on what your trying to get out of it, and what your expectations are.

it doesn't matter what your expectations are when you first walk through the door. after a few years your gonna think you can fight even if that's not the case. that's why traditional martial arts are largely a scam.

I know a few people who have been involved in traditional martial arts for many years and they have no delusions about being a bad ass fighter because of it.
