lol. No to the roids, painkillers, etc. But yes to the actually training how to fight. It's not gay if you're actually training how to inflict pain on another human being. Your fear of homosexuality has really narrowed your view on things.
The cost benefit analysis told me it was definitely the wrong lifestyle choice for me. Being the toughest guy in a room is not important to me—ensuring that I don’t have to spend hours every week (or even just 30 minutes of my entire life) with a bunch of drug upped freaks, some of whom are latently homosexual frotteurs and have their sweaty bodies in close contact with my own is much more of a priority.
If I studied any martial art, it would be a striking one and completely drug and grapple free. But, again, I’m not 20 years old anymore, so having more time to do other things rather than trying to turn myself into Chuck Norris is more my speed. Ultimately, I’ll just stick a piece of metal in someone if I absolutely have to. I’m not squeamish.
Wow. Your ignorance has really lead you to miss out on something. Your description of MMA shows how little you actually know of the training, and the culture. Separate question... probably safe to assume you own a plate carrier, in great condition?
There is no ignorance. I worked with several MMA fighters and they were all on roids. Two were on other things like oxy and xanax.Pioneer MMA fighter Mark whatshisface also has a documentary that outlines his own drug addiction as an MMA fighter. And you roll around on the floor with sweaty dudes and attempt to do joint manipulations on each other among other things.
