If there's a choice between taekwondo and weight training..... Which one should I choose to increase functional strength and better self defense?

weight-training wont nessicarily give u better self defense, unless you already know how to defend your self

**donkeypunch** · 03-03-2008 02:03 AM

how are we gonna rate weight to reps, are we gonna do this in weight classes

**Chickenjorge** · 03-03-2008 02:04 AM

i dont think the weight should matter.

well your 135 while newton is about 100lbs heavier than u

**deegs** · 03-03-2008 02:06 AM

naw, no weight classes. the bodyweight is simply to better gauge how impressive the feat is. for example, say both chickenjorge and hotnewton reach a 1 arm pullup at the same time, the 100lbs difference between them would have to be considered.

well yeah but hes used to having that much weight. so hes naturally stronger.

**deegs** · 03-03-2008 02:08 AM

basically, if you get there first, you win anyway. though jorge has an advantage

so this isnt really a comp more of a race(duh says it in the name of the thread, excuse me im part polish) and we doing this based on quickness or just to help everyone reach their max

but it takes more energy and oxygen to move bigger muscles

we will have to judge this without a system, or by popular vote from people not in the comp

i agree. but we should make it so its people that are regulars.
cuz then people can get their gimmicks to vote for them, or other posters will vote without knowing the weight, height, etc. of each poster, or any of that.

**deegs** · 03-03-2008 02:15 AM

lol there's no voting, it's a race.
