I'm really determined to have a career in mma, I love the sport to bits. Next year my goal is the train much harder. I just want to know, will training, competiting etc... I know that of course I need to get noticed etc... but I just wan to know how hard isit to get noticed? Plus... what's the best job I should get to earn money whilst being able to train? (I got kicked of my college course). I want to earn money to pay for lessons myself... just need a little of a idea. Thanks if anyone replies
3 AnswersMartial Arts7 years agoCan I train when I still have a little bit of a cough and cold?
Hey, I have a lingering cough and cold. I have been resting for the past 1 1/2 weeks (my cough and cold lasted about a week but now it's just lingering a tiny bit) of training due to the cough and cold. I do want to get back into training but cause It's still lingering, I want to make sure It's "defiantly" out of my system.
So my question Is really, can I still train whilst my cough and cold Is still lingering?
It's so much better now but should I wait till It's completely gone or can I start now?
If so, as a mixed martial artist, can someone give me a some of your own personal advice what to do before I start going training again; or what would you normally do?
Thanks for any feedback (by the way, I know what to do before training again, I do just wait till it's completely gone; always have, but I would want to get training as soon as possible in future due to the fact I want to get somewhere, even a career in MMA. I hate resting but I would rather recover then hinder recovery time)
Thanks for any feedback If I get any haha

Well... i shall make this short and sweet... i got up really late today... and like i dunno whether or not to train today... i do enjoy exercising but today i literally got up really late... so my day has been very short :S
I would normally train twice a day... but cause i got up late i had to skip my morning session... i can do my afternoon workout... but i really don't know whether to or start fresh tomorrow
I want other peoples opinion... if you guys was in my situation... would you start fresh tomorrow so i can get up much earlier... or should i do a workout today?... i could just conserve my energy and save it for tomorrow?... i did some exercise yesterday aha... should i have a rest and feel better for tomorrows workout :)???
Thanks for any advice i get... and i'm really sorry about all of this ellipses... i have a really weird habit of doing it after i finish a sentence... i'm really sorry... it's a really weird OCD of mine aha... but that's beside the point of my question :)

1 AnswerOther - Careers & Employment8 years agoi feel a little afraid to masturbate (please give me some advice anyone... no silly stuff :S)?
hey people of yahoo answers... i have a little problem... now it is funny cause it's stupid but it's not funny if you suffer with a mental condition :(...
basically i was playing with myself the other day... i noticed like my heart rate was going up (like it normally does)... but i felt like i was about to have a panic attack :S... so i had to stop and calm down before i resumed :S... so i carried on till the point of ejaculation... when i did ejaculate... my whole body had this warmth sensation... i grunted loud (normally i try and be quite cause people in the house... but i couldn't help it that time)... then i felt weird... i felt like i was able to catch my breath straight away... then i was fine aha :S...
Yesterday night... happened again... but this time... i didn't breath heavy... but when i was about to ***... i did breath abit heavier... then when i cummed... i grunted loud again... then i had static shocks running through me cause of my jumper... my left leg felt numb abit... i felt like my muscles were so relaxed etc... i felt really like "o_0 WOW"
Look i know it's silly to worry... but i feel like my ejaculations... they feel different... they feel much more intense... i mean... super intense :S...
I mean... it's a great feeling... but i keep worrying about it :S...
I'm a 18 year old male... i love to exercise... i train in mixed martial arts... so i'm a active kind of guy... i am perfectly fine... except for the metal condition... i'm having therapy for that... so yeah...
But honestly... why does my ejaculations feel so different... like after i feel this sensation through out my whole body... i mean... i never get these feelings before?... i only got the feeling of relaxation after haha :S... now i feel these really confusion feelings inside of me haha... i mean they feel good but they don't feel good cause i am worrying abit... which makes me panic after a session :S...
Please some advice... no silly answers :S... and sorry about my writing... it's a OCD to do semi colons after a sentence... i cant help it lol :S... but if you can read what i have said... then great :)... thanks for any replies... i be so thankful to anyone who helps :)

1 AnswerSingles & Dating8 years agoBreathing exercises vs physical exercises (a debate... please join in if you exercise)?
Right this is a quick debate
If you ain't heard of breathing exercises... well it's basically breathing deeply to expand the lungs and it should in time improve lung capacity...
Right i have also heard that breathing exercises also can improve stamina?... is this true?...
I do exercises alot and i been doing breathing exercises alot aswell... i have cut down with the breathing exercises to doing them 3x a week before bed...
I just want to know... in your opinion which is best... do you think doing deep breathing will make your endurance better or just doing physical exercises is what will benefit you the most due to actually working the muscles... not just the lungs?...
let me know your thoughts guys :D
PS i know this ain't about martial arts (well martial arts is a exercise but i'm just trying to get some opinions on this subject... plus martial arts in some styles focus on breathing)

3 AnswersMilitary8 years agoDo you think this is a good fight (anyone can answer)?
This is a fight at a karate championship... i used to do karate myself but i have moved on ages ago to doing mixed martial arts... and i can say this for a fact... compared to what i used to do... mma is much more tougher, better training etc...
With karate... the fighting was restricted to straight punches and some kicks :S!!!... in a real fight... there would be hooks, upper cuts, clinching, ground fighting etc... that's when i decided to stop karate :S... not dissing karate in anyway... but i didn't feel it was right for me :S...
This video is quite recent... i found it and i saw my mate in the background haha :S... but... truthfully... as much as the title sounds exiting... i didn't feel the fight was exiting for me :S... that's my opinion...
I'm gonna put up 2 different videos... 1 of this video i'm on about... then a mma fight... and you tell me which is better :)...
By the way... i ain't saying karate is bad or anything... but when i did karate... i didn't feel like it would help me in the streets :S... since mma... i feel great haha :S...
karate video

mma video

(by the way... this has more grappling then striking... so more like a jiu jitsu fight... but still... it's cool :D)...
what are you opinions on this subject...

1 AnswerMartial Arts8 years agothere is nothing wrong about talking sexually to your girl friend (please help)?
Well... there is someone i know... we both have said to each over we like each over and we are actually dating haha.
We have been talking etc... sometimes we talk sexually etc...
She has been sending explicit pictures to me and that... i'm cool with that haha ;)...
But i'm just asking... cause no girl friend i have had has never done that before... that's why it seems weird for me... but it's good at the same time.
So i'm a 17 year old male... just wondering if it's normal to talk sexually quite abit (Well not 24/7 haha)???
I have only had 3 relationships in my past... this will be my 4th (i like a relationship which can last a long time... cause i ain't the kind of guy who dates loads of people... i'm not exactly picky or anything but i prefer a long relationship)...
thanks for any replies :)
4 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agowhat does a pro fighter do in a average day?
I'm really curious actually... i do enjoy doing martial arts and i would love to train it day in, day out lol.
I was watching this documentary of a jiu jitsu fighter... He said when he trains for a competition he trains up to 4x a day o_0!... wouldn't he have work to go to?...
I train alot... i train twice a day, rest on sundays... one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
I feel like that works for me.
But what would they do in a day... like wake up, eat etc... when they train etc... do they have work to go to? (business job, shop assistant etc...)
I would love to know this actually haha... thanks for any answers :)
