What is actually going on in reality?
Lately I’ve been questioning some elements of reality. Is absolutely everything some sort of test? Are my 5 senses some sort of sensory testing equipment? Im starting to consider the possibility of every single footbal program that I’ve watched, every news telecast, every piece of historic evidence and scientific fact has only inserted itself into my perception and my senses(my life) in order to test me. The existence of wildlife and wildlife habitat, the beautiful moon reflected upon the ocean during the evening, is something lying to me? Am I really just meant to die in warfare? Or do I have some sort of option? Please, can someone give me logical advice. I know I sound insane, and I AM, but I am also intelligent. And I stopped smoking cigarettes, marijuana and any other drugs or dirty habbits years ago in order to pursue the martial arts. I am DEAD serious, I have a couple glasses of wine a couple times a week and thats about it. I am not an drug adict, but maybe I am to dillusion..

are foam, training nunchucks ok to have in CA?
i’ve read the Penal Code and laws regarding nunchucks in CA and i understand that possessing them in public can be punishable with prison.
but those are the actual wooden/steel nunchucks.
what about simple foam nunchucks?
my best friend and i wanna get into shape by practicing martial arts. we are not a part of any gang or organized crime. we have no intentions to beat anyone with them, as we are certain we cannot kill anyone with a foam weapon of any kind. even with that in mind, we only want to use them to get into shape and spar with only one another. we intend to train and only use them within our own homes and backyards.
we really want to order a pair of these foam nunchucks, seen here:

they’re foam-padded and rubber. no chains. the most we can think of them terrible is that they would be annoying to be hit by repeatedly. again, we don’t want to hurt anyone with them – only to practice with and work out with. it’s not necessary to practice martial arts with nunchucks, but they are something we want to try using.
help us out, please. if there is anyone out there who is a martial arts instructor who has trained others to use nunchucks under CA’s legal conditions who can answer this, please do.
we would really appreciate it.
thanks for reading.

What are some good workout routines for grapplers/judo players?
I do a martial art called shuai jiao which is similar to judo and involves lots of grappling. I’m a pretty fit guy, but I’ll be working with some extremely strong and well balanced people in about seven months. I want to get myself into peak physical condition when that time comes. What are some routines you guys find helpful? I’m thinking in terms of gym equipment.

What martial art should I take up?
I’d like something that doesn’t require much close body contact for long periods of time, using speed more than strength and focuses on quick precision strikes. I’d rather practice on equipment than in actual fights, as it is more for defense and getting into shape. I’m around 5ft5.5 and a total beginner. I’d also like to not get beaten up too badly in the classes. Also, I don’t like the whole routine in Karate of breathing and striking air, I’d rather get straight into beating a bag. What type of martial art could you reccommend?
(A link to a site with descriptions and many types would be appreciated too, but isn’t vital.)
Thanks!

(Ps. By not getting beaten up badly, I mean longer lasting damage, ie. Broken noses, lost teeth.)

Which martial art shall I choose?
Hi, I’m thirteen and I want to start learning a martial art, the only problem is I don’t know which one I would like to learn. Here’s my criteria:
I would like to learn a cool martial art, it can use anything like sticks hands or swords.
It needs to be near where I am, Buckinghamshire.
I don’t really want a popular one that lots of people do like judo taekwondo or karate.
It can’t be too expensive so know £5000 equipment.
Thanks allot!
Sorry for my misspellings.
OK it seems I wasn’t specific enough so here we go:
I would prefer a martial art that is mainly for self defense in real life situations not for sport or fun, although it would be nice to do it as a Hobie an keep myself fit.
Another preference is for quick sharp strikes and no rolling around and putting people in holds.
As for a life commitment I would prefer a quick to learn kind of style where I can quickly learn the basics and then begin to progress gradually.
Hope this helped!

Martial Art similar to the UFC (for a 13 year old)?
Hey guys,
I have began to watch martial art shows at a growing rate, which has made me myself want to have such an experience.
I am 13 years old and relatively big for my age (182cm 75kg), and I am really interested in becoming involved with a full contact martial art sport.
I already know that at my age nothing will be able to compare with anything I have seen on TV, and I also know that anything with strikes will involve a lot of safety equipment and training, However I am still interested.
In the past I have spent around two years fighting judo, eventually making it to state tournaments. However I eventually began to break away from the sport.
I am really looking for a sport that involves a lot of stand up fighting (or sparring), however If the sport involves both grapples and stand up then that we be great.
At the moment I have considered Muay Tai and Kick boxing, however I am open to anything.
Also, I live in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, so If anyone knows of any clubs around that are then that would be fantastic
