I want to exercise by doing taking up martial arts but I can't decide which style. I really like the sound of Kung Fu, but Karate dojos are more abundant in my area. I am more interested in cardio-vascular exercise and harmonising my body and mind at the same time. Writing this I think I'm...
WHOOPS!!! Looks like it does

I am posting this because I figured that since so many people think Karate does not have grappling that this CLEARLY proves them wrong.
Since this is a question and...
Im pretty new to bjj and i noticed the instructer said "ossu." i thought this was only for karate. I know bjj was derived from japaneese jujitsu but i didnt know they kept that aspect...
0.62 kg. Starting from rest,? A person with a blackbelt in karate has a fist that has a mass of 0.62 kg. Starting from rest, this fist attains a velocity of 9.0 m/s in 0.15 s. What is the magnitude of the average net force applied to the fist to achieve this level of performance?

I wanna see what the real karate is like. People on this site keep talking about what is authentic and what is traditional, and what is bad quality-mcdojo martial arts...so if it's off of youtube, or even pictures, please show me it.
so lately, I have noticed that when I do the straight punch for only five or ten times, i get a headache.....why? I looked in the mirror and did it and noticed that my whole body is....vibrating when I do it. Why is this happening even though I am relaxed when I thrust out my fist? is it...
I practiced Ed Parker's Kenpo karate for about 4 years and then Tae Kwon do for about 4 before coming to Japan. In Japan, I've been doing light contact karate that my teacher calls sundome for about 2 years and I still can't get it right!
I've improved a lot, but every time I spar, my...
(side chop)
on the back side of the neck going towards the upper shoulder. You know like in the movies how you see a guy hit a guy karate chop style and it makes them pass out but instead of it being in the front its in the back of the neck and its been hurting for months.. this all started...
Well I am 23. I have a back condition called osteo-arthritis. I haven't been very active the past few years but I am starting to become more active. I started working out regularly in the gym about 6 months ago. When I was on the treadmill or the bike my ankles became very painful and started to...
I have just started Karate class. In week 3 we will be doing free style sparring. Do you use full force when you are sparring? What if I hit someone and knocked them out? Do I only use conventional karate moves that I have learned from my Sensei?
Thanks
So how hard should I inflict my blows?

Back when I was in martial arts school they always made a big deal out of never using it unless you were being attacked on the street? And even if you WERE being attacked on the street while you were still minding your own buisness, cant you be charged and go to jail for assaulting the person...
I don't mean what most people would call karate or kempo.
I mean the ones where they teach you to parry & strike with the same hand simultaneously
They learned to pull back their fist on the side, directly under the arm after a strike. However, today when karateka pull back after a strike...
