Yo,

I'm looking for the best kind of martial arts to take up for all-round real-life application. Minimum amount of bowing, maximum amount of plowing. I hear conflicting stories. Which one do you /sp/ort?

Krav Maga

It's not a sport or a philosophy, it is just a way to fuck shit up bad.

From Wikipedia:
>In Krav Maga, there are no hard-and-fast rules, and no distinction in training for men and women.[3] It is not a sport, and there are no specific uniforms, attire or competitions, although some organizations recognise progress through training with rank badges and different levels. All the techniques focus on maximum efficiency in real-life conditions. Krav Maga generally assumes that the individual attacking will give no quarter; therefore, as a response the attacks and defenses are intended only for use in potentially lethal threat situations with the aim to neutralize and escape as rapidly and safely as possible. Crippling attacks to vulnerable body parts, including groin and eye strikes, headbutts, and other efficient and potentially brutal attacks, improvised use of any objects available, and maximizing personal safety in a fight, are emphasized. However, it must be stressed that instructors can and do demonstrate how to moderate the techniques to fit the circumstances. While no limits are placed on techniques to be used in life-threatening situations, the legal need to inflict the appropriate minimal damage in other circumstances is recognized and stressed.

Whatever you do, don't take karate.

OP here

Krav Maga sounds like something I've been looking for (though the emphasis is kinda heavy on the Big Bad World Out There, but I can live with that). Thanks!
