It doesn't help that I'm fat as fuck, so my face shouldn't be shown off in the first place.

Thanks. But there are a lot of times you're forced into foot combat (sieges, tourneys, ambushes, etc). I always end up getting beaten down in ground combat because enemies don't recoil after being blocked for long enough for me to get a hit in.

Invest heavily in bow or crossbow skills. Ground melee fighting is horribly tedious against the AI, so you might as well abuse the bows. On the subject of ground fighting: Once you get to the point of sieging/defending castles you will want to try and keep your cavalry in the back away from fighting. As soon as you have your own holding have two seperate armies being trained: A cavalry swarm for field fighting and an infantry only, crossbow heavy ground group for castle fighting. Trying to use your cavalry as front-line ground fodder will just have them all massacred.
