Anyone Enjoy Watching Karate?

Anyone like to watch Karate?

I guess the most popular sport to watch now is football, which I do watch. I do however love to watch a lot of martials arts including Karate championships. I was involved in martial arts when I was younger, but I still enjoy watching it now as a spectator.

I studied it when I was in H.S. and in the military. Also studied Wing Chung or Jeet Kune Do for a few months.

I found out that the more I was away from classes the more natural my technique was. In class we had to pull punches which develops bad habits. I also hated fighting in my bare feet. I was able to kick harder with shoes on.

I haven't studied it for a long time though.....but much of it you never forget.

It's kinda like fencing the way they do it. Pretty neat.

Also, do they have body armor on? Because that was like a solar plexus kick.

i took martial arts from junior high/middle school to high school. i do not watch martial arts but i do like to watch football. i think football is more exciting than martial arts. no amount of martial arts can beat a gun for protection. watching Bullshit: Martial Arts from Penn and Teller knocked some sense into me about martial arts. They tell the truth about martial arts.

I took karate lessons as a teenager. I agree that pulling punches and kicks builds bad habits. Also, it does not build the power a technique needs to work.

Someone who is serious about learning how to fight should to to a studio there the emphasis is on full contact sparing, using protective equipment, physical conditioning, and punching and kicking a heavy bag.
