I've moved more furniture than I care to admit. I've been driving for 16 years... I've owned trucks for 10 of those 16. Yes, I've moved a bunch of fucking furniture...

Life Rule #5289: If you don't want to help everyone you know move, don't buy a fucking truck.

That goes double if you have an enclosed trailer. Furniture and cars.

Agreed... however, if one was that concerned with their appearance...

Fuck that.

It's not a badge of honor, it's gross.

I'm with Triple. I'm too pretty for that shit.

Most people don't get any cauliflower ear at all. lol @ a man being worried about his ears though. Fag.

Nah, I know a lot of BJJ competitors and I don't know anyone with facial scars. A few guys have pretty bad cauliflower ear but this really comes down to genetics and how stiff your ears are naturally. BJJ is all about being smart and being overly aggressive like a wrestler isn't usually the smartest way to fight. In fact, I've rolled with many college wrestlers that are pretty easy to tap. Triangles and guillotines all day son.

Kaneman...what would you tell a fit person, but a complete novice in martial arts, interested in starting down that path?

OSP covered this nicely. My advice is to go straight to a good BJJ school, sign up, and get started. You guys think P90x is hard...try escaping a purple belt's mount without getting tapped. SUPER physically demanding... Start with BJJ, learn how to use your body, how to defend yourself, etc...and then if you'd like move into MMA.

I'll be happy to verify whether a local school you're looking at is legit or not, I pretty much know BJJ peeps all over the country.

Still working out every morning at 5:30......

How do you guys do that? My muscles don't work in the morning after i get up. Its like they run at half power for about 45 minutes. Let alone being up at 5:30 to do it. Yuck.

Although I am totally off the wagon right now, I'll chime in.

Getting up that early sucks. However, you get used to it. It never really becomes fun, but bearable.

I am NOT a morning person, but I get up at 5:30am to go to the track, to go skiing or a handful of other activities, so it can be done, I just have to WANT to do it.

Give your muscles 10 minutes of warming/stretching and they'll work just fine.
