Awards

gollark: I don't see myself doing that, since I basically only do exercisey things through a combination of being required(ish) to due to picking "fitness" as one of my sport options, some concern for my health, and the fact that it's in the sport-y environment at school and during a timeslot when there aren't really many other options.

gollark: <@665664987578236961> I think people's problem with it is more that quality of instruction can vary a lot, there is often not good sparring with resistance, there's a lack of competitions, it hasn't demonstrated that it works consistently in MMA competitions, there's an overemphasis on "deadly" techniques and aggressiveness, and that you can't really reliably defend against knives, multiple people or guns.
