Combat sports provide training in cardio (endurance, strength and agility (flexibility)) and, properly supervised, are FUN. Loads of kids have discovered not just wrestling (which we generally treat separately here) but variations like Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Mauy Thai, and so forth and, although less popular perhaps, boxing itself (under very specific rules and conditions). W actually think boxing is still dangerous, but there are plenty out there who see it as just another form of fitness training. Be that as it may, we admire the tenacity of the upcoming generation in their training for combat sports and, of course, training generally. Let's share. Bjj is actually blurring the boundary we have usually kept around wrestling (which we have treated as a special topic for posts). Maybe bjj and anything similar could just appear in either sort of post in the future - wrestling, or other general combat sports... Let's see what comes up!
