Answer 1

Ecky-thump, a lethal combination of black pudding twirling and the throwing of specially weighted flat caps. Originated in Yorkshire. After years of study and hard work disciples were presented with their ritual braces and black puddings. You average practitioner of Ecky-thump would make Bruce Lee look like a handbag-swinging granny.
Go in peace my child - or else.

Answer 2

The special forces of the western world teach not to stick to any martial art. If you use just one it may be effective against someone who does not practice that one or even someone who does but is not as good. However, come across a well trained fighter with the knowledge of a number of martial arts whilst you only practise one and they will know in advance the moves you are likely to make and the counters to use and more likely how to use those moves againt you.

Learn a variety of the arts and then do what the Special forces teach - Use a variety of fighting styles but above all , fight hard and fight dirty!

Answer 3

Ok while you could integrate western boxing with any Martial Arts because it will increase your hand/eye coordination, greco-roman wrestling will help also for the ground fighting especially if you use submission tactics that're employed by several Martial arts, including those that are not ground based martial arts, but the ground based like judo, jujitsu, aikido, and Hapkido will help.

kick boxing while it's not a Martial art per se it will help with the timing and flexibility as well as the hand/eye coordination.

Savat is a french combat art that could also help.

good luck. I hope this helped.

Answer 4

What do you mean by non-martial arts?

For me: Muay Thai, western boxing, Greco-Roman/freestyle wrestling, and Brazilian Jujitsu make me nice and well-rounded. If I had to absolutely narrow it down to 2, muay Thai and BJJ or wrestling and boxing.

As far as non-martial arts stuff, I do a lot of conditioning outside of sparring, hitting bags, etc. Personally I am a big fan of kettlebells and clubbells, but I that has more to do with a lack of space than anything else. Scott Sonnon also has some great stuff as far as conditoning for martial artists.

Answer 5

i would have to say jiu-jitsu . cause jiu-jitsu is a well rounded Martial art that teaches you to fight standing up far like karate, standing up close like aikido, and on the ground like judo all of these put together is jiu-jitsu. so to become a well rounded fighter you learn the basics (jiu-jitsu is the art of the samurai by the way) in jiu-jitsu and then you can expand you fighting skills by taking muay-thai boxing classes for stand up fighting and Brazilian jiu-jitsu for ground fighting (greco-roman wrestling is the best ground fighting discipline but Brazilian is pretty strong too)

Answer 6

Look at any Pride fight champion, UFC champion or K-1, MMAs winningest style is the combination of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu/Muay Thai kick boxing. Your butt will be owned by anyone who trains in MMA Brazilian Jiujitsu/MuayThai.
