Been tazed a ton, both in the ARMY and by police.

We used to grapple with taser knives and it was hilarious.



They blind fold everyone, and pair them up with a partner to grapple with. You sit back to back. There's an entire group of soldiers in this room, and then the instructors walk around and randomly place a taser or taser knife in someone's cargo pocket. The reasoning being they want you to get it in your head that you never know if the person you're fighting is armed or not and you need to treat everyone like they potentially have a weapon of some kind on them.

And it's absolutely hilarious watching these fights. Most people turn around and start half-ass grappling and reaching around on the other person's pocket to see if that person has a taser or not. I was one of the smallest dudes in the class, like 150 pounds. Most other people were 200+ pounds, and of course the first round of this, I think the instructors decided to put it in my pocket because I was the small guy and it was hilarious in general watching me fight for my life to hold my own against these huge dudes who were way stronger than me.

I remember turning around and the guy asking me if I had a taser on me and being like "no" and then we just stared intently at each other and a shit-eating grin spread across my face and I reached in my pocket as fast as I could, and went for the taser and he started trying to fight me over it, and I some how got loose and caught him in the ribs with it. I think he actually let me get him though just to get it over with. The way the tournament works is you have to keep fighting until you eventually get got.

The way I got kicked out of this little tournament was my best friend got me good with one... like I realized he had it and when we were fighting over it it got knocked to the floor. We both dove for it, he landed on it, grabbed and spun around and basically impaled me with it as I came crashing down towards him. He was way faster and more athletic than me.

Learned this guy killed himself a few years go. Really kind of shocked me because he was one of the most stoic and strong people I've ever met, but where he was so good at grappling, he actually made it to the very end of the class without getting zapped (and he was only like 155 pound guy, but Native American and insanely strong for his size)..

so what did they do? Well you have to get tazered, its part of that portion of the class. So the instructor (Matt Larson in this case) snuck up behind him and got him with two tazer knife things. Apparently when you use two on someone it's like twice as strong because the current from each meet with each other or something.

And yes I know police tazers are different. I've been shot with those too.

But yeah, hella familiar with tasers. That's like one of the only things I learned in the ARMY that I could take with me in life and I even recognized that while I was in. The army taught me how to fight like a complete badass in a way that is realistic and in a way you won't learn anywhere else in the world. Like a lot of the things that work in MMA won't work against ARMY combatives because they involve eye gouges and groin strikes.

I already knew how to shoot and stalk prey before I went to sniper school. I don't think the ARMY taught me to be a good sniper or anything like that. I think I was a good sniper because of growing up in the Appalachians and being turned loose with a rifle at a young age and sneaking through the woods shooting stuff from far away.

Like Carlos Hathcock didn't go to sniper school to learn his skills, he was just raised very similar to the way I was.

Lotta folks think they could lick the boy. :p

Also for the record I'm not chiseled anymore, and don't really have any desire to be. I would rather be 10-15 pounds overweight and have the extra strength than starve and dehydrate myself so I can look better in mirror selfies, all the while sacrificing
performance.

Most fighters are not chiseled, they literally just cut before a fight. During training camp you are at a major advantage for walking around with fat on your body. This is also why body builders are ripped, and power lifters are fat.

Like there is no competitive advantage of being ripped other than to make weight.

I bet RJ spends a lot of time on the bodybuilding forum. :rolleyes:

Bodybuilding, sherdog, gaiaonline... currently arguing with an army recruiter on Facebook because he told this 18 year old kid if he joins he’ll be making $70K a year

You sound like a lot of fun.

Yawn. Can't wait for the next meme account to hit RnF.

Ignore is the only true option.

The escape became home to these folks.

Been waiting on Furoar to weigh in, surely he'll have an opinion on the matter

Interesting how those pics look nothing like the other pics of yourself you posted lol and how you don’t have any pics proving any of your claims
