If Ronda had listened to her mom, she might still be a fighter and champ today.

For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to read Ronda's awful book, and even when she's trying to talk up her mom, her mom sounds pretty abusive.

I don't think many people would consider it good child rearing to pounce on top of your pre-teen child and force them to defend from your continued assaults throughout each day. This does teach a child to be tough and to be a fighter, but it also turns them into Ronda Rousey. If only she could have stayed away from that bum edmond.

does boxing gently caress up your brain more than football?

Someone important said they're working on new football helmets that let you get brutally hosed up with almost no brain damage. Boxing has been working on giving people brain damage ever since they invented gloves. Football players playing through injuries is probably on par with letting boxers get dropped and keep fighting though. I think overall boxing fucks up your brain a lot more than football. It's the goal of the sport. e; if you asked about hockey some people could tell you all about hosed up hockey brains, i'm sure Chillanese fucked around with this message at 04:59 on Jul 26, 2017 |

It's impossible to take the sting out of the soft brain hitting hard skull on big collisions. There's nothing you can put on the outside of the head to mitigate that. edit: I would love to be wrong

I spent a few days with a guy doing NFL funded materials research and while I doubt what they're working on will solve the problem entirely their main aim is actually a much more extreme multiple impact scenario than a few fat guys running at you head first so it has potential

theres fairly new technology in cycling helmets called MIPS, basically its like a shell inside the helmet that rotates with your skull a little on impact. i guess the principle involved is similar to hitting the ground sliding instead of directly in a bike crash

He retired citing research that the accumulation of smaller hits over a career may be worse than the big hard ones. Though that would be consistent with football being really really bad for you.

Earlier study said 87 of 91 have CTE. I can't find any good numbers for boxing. MMA is too new to get good numbers.

Fozzy The Bear posted:http://www.npr.org/2017/07/25/539198429/study-cte-found-in-nearly-all-donated-nfl-player-brains There isn't a big enough asterisk on that study/sample group. 110 out of 111 brains deliberately donated to a CTE study because their owners/owners' families thought they had CTE had CTE. That being said, it's probably somewhere on the order of 60-70% of NFL players that will end up with it.

Memento posted:There isn't a big enough asterisk on that study/sample group. Yeah, I mean it's still a big enough link to be significant since only one person self-misdiagnosed, but they way it's being click-baited as representative of the entire NFL is pretty disingenuous.

I spar occasionally in some gyms around town and I box w a friend who lives in my building. Dude is a retired MMA guy who currently does alot of juijitsu now. We spar as a workout type thing cause he doesn't wanna loose all his striking. I'm not looking to work on alot of technique I just want to get a good workout and work on some combinations. I do like a 60 second warm up of each punch, into 1/2s , 2/hooks, 2/uppercuts and than free style 60 seconds My work out now is 3x5 min rounds 2 min rest working on either landing poo poo at the edge of my reach, staying in the pocket, simulating sequences I've experienced or free styling. *shrug*

Oh, I gotcha. I was just going to warn you about not goofing your shoulder by punching too hard if you've never practiced before. I usually do two soft 3 minute rounds to get my distance and then 3*3 minute rounds, short break, repeat three times. None of it is super high intensity. What I try to do is make sure I'm always angling every time I step in and out, like in this video, and always moving off when I'm on the outside. As an 'exercise' it's probably not the best, but I find it helps build the muscle memory of never standing in place or backing straight up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFdHVvh0oJw

Captain Log posted:What website is the least horrible for MMA news? I've been busy for a few months and it seems like they all blow. A lot. I think MMA Junkie is probably somehow the most legitimate, although their website is terrible and has a video autoplay on every page. MMA Mania has been pretty reliable for me for awhile now. On the side, there was an interesting article on Deadspin yesterday that kind of underscored how lovely of a company SB Nation is and why lots of their coverage (like Bloody Elbow) is so bad. I think MMA Mania just basically reports new and is better for it, rather than trying to inject terrible opinions like BE. DumbWhiteGuy fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Aug 15, 2017 |
