Re: Martial Arts
wrestling is fun, but kicking the crap outta the black belts is more fun.

Re: Martial Arts
Word, wrestling is one of the oldest, if not the oldest martial art.
I too am in the camp that believes grapplers have a distinct advantage against pure strikers in a one on one situation, Kilik113. ^^;; And some of you guys are lucky bastards, sounds like most of you go to decent schools. I've got nothing around here except crappy TKD or "Karate" mcdojos. Luckily my college has judo as an afterschool activity thing (Questionable teacher though, teaches a lot of useful throws and takedowns...just doesn't seem to know what they're called. He just calls everything a "toss" >.>), and I live in an area with probably the best wrestling coaches and competition in the USA, maybe even the world. |

Re: Martial Arts
Yeah, those are the great times! When you wake up the next morning and feel like you got nailed by a Mac truck. Then you go and do some more training and feel like it ran you over, too! It's AWESOME!!!

Re: Martial Arts
^Hah, I know that feeling. After judo, sometimes the skin from my finger/knuckles peel off, cause of the constant gripping with sweaty hands :P In addition to the soreness. And its like "........YES"

Re: Martial Arts
Korean style Hapkido. Its lots of counter attacks. Its fun if you don't mind falling all the time.
I want to learn the Brazilian ninjutsu. It looks really cool. |

Re: Martial Arts
Heh, not bad Kluang. He probably meant Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu though, not ninjutsu. ; )
Edit: After a quick search I found ancient forms of wrestling to be just as old or older than 5 BC. Also, Pankration is around 500 years older than Kalari if your dates are right. Then there's forms of wrestling that predate that by a good 2000 years. >.> Last edited by Miburo; 08-29-2006 at 09:58 AM. Reason: Addition |

Re: Martial Arts
Yep, the first recorded Olympic wrestling match occured in 708ish BC. That's all I could find about the oldest documented greek wrestling event. Then again, I only searched for about 8 minutes total. >.>

Re: Martial Arts
Like I said, Miburo. One piece of information'll state that one martial art is the oldest, then another will completely contradict it. So it's impossible to tell what's truly the oldest martial art. My conclusion at this point is just mere wrestling.

Aruko, I know. I agree, some form of wrestling probably is the oldest. Just thought I'd throw some info out there to counter Kluang's claim. |
