Way of the Bust

[Elizabeth]

Tell some stories about how you have seen some busting while  practicing a martial art here.

Hello, Elizabeth!

I must confess that I don't practice martial art regularly. Although it is something that I love and like.
Reading about your experience, I had a doubt that you could solve it.

I am a man 1.82 tall and 118kg in weight. My overweight is mostly focused on my legs and thighs. What makes my genitals, instead of being between my legs, stay ahead, resting on my thighs.

I think that gives me the tactical advantage against attacks on my crotch. Well, if you try to strain a foot between my legs, my thighs would block the ascent.

I think that without using protectors, naturally, I have an innate defense.

If you feel like chatting, I would like to know your opinion.

Greetings!

I saw 2 idiots in karate class once get kicked in the balls. Should have been wearing a cup. One guy ran up to the other and kicked him square in the balls. Teacher should have called it a foul as opposed too laughing. Teacher was an idiot.

Are you serious the instructor actually laughed at that....

Mine recently were not all that interesting, I was in class and supposed to be wearing a cup.  The person was supposed slap me in the groin as part of the drill, but because I was not wearing a cup they were not supposed to actually hit me.  They ended up doing so anyway by accident and they were pretty impressed that it did not affect appear to phase me, guess this hobby has some upside.

18 years old, during school holidays, I joined a one week trial course in Karate for boys, while for girls there was a self-defence course. Quite sexist, actually, however, the trainer of the girls was a quite tough Karate 3rd Dan woman. Since I continued Karate after that, I got to know her then.

Anyway, at the end of this week we had a common training. The boys had to show off, what they had learned, which was not much by then. And afterwards we had to be dummies for the girls. I was lucky to get a sexy partner (also 18, with glasses and a great shape). The typical training situation was:

- boy grabs girl with both arms around her.

- She had to free herself by some slap on the ear, followed by a twisting motion

- Then the girls should either stomp on our foot, kick against our knee or knee us in the balls

- following were some more techniques, bringing us to the ground

- before running away they should deliver a last punch, either to our solar plexus or to the balls

We repeated this two or three times, and each time, where my partner had a choice, she aimed for the balls: knee and punch. Unfortunately she always stopped short, but it was great, how she took it for granted that this target is first choice.

Did the guys wear cups?
