[QUOTE="WanderingSoul, post: 634895, member: 2424"] Kieran is right. People ask me what is best to train for self defense, and I always tell them whatever you enjoy enough to train 3-4x per week consistently. I got into MMA to become a badads. But in reality, I've been in one fight in the past handful of years, and it could have been avoided. I stayed in the sport because it's fun and I enjoy doing it. I'm no longer in it to become a badass, which I'm not anyways. Many people I know are the same. Start training so they can fuck people up, and end up maturing/becoming confident enough to where they are rarely in a situation to need to do anyting. Also, if you don't enjoy it, and only train to become a better fighter, you'll never get good enough to actually defend yourself. You'll drop out in a few months. It's like lifting weights. If you legitimately do not enjoy it, you'll never build the body you want because it takes a significant amount of time and dedication to reach that level. [/QUOTE]
