As promised, here's the guide to finding a good MMA/BJJ/Striking gym.
Overview
There’s a lot of martial arts out there now, and we are blessed to live in a world where have seen the effectiveness of martial arts through UFC and other fighting sports. We’ve distilled what works and discarded what doesn’t. There are two schools of fighting, striking and grappling.
Striking Arts: Striking arts are generally arts where you use your legs and arms to strike the opponent. Think boxing.
Grappling Arts: Grappling arts generally teach you how to use throws, holds, locks, and positioning to defeat the opponent. Think wrestling.
Mixed Martials Arts: Mixed Martial Arts combine both striking and grappling.
Good vs. “Bad” Martial Arts:
Basically, classical martial arts have been shown to not work in real fighting situations. If you want to learn a classical martial art, that’s great, but do not delude yourself into think you are learning how to fight. Eg Kung Fu, Taekwondo, Tai Chi, Jeet Kune Do, Wing Chun, Ninjustu, etc
If you want to learn how to fight, look for gyms that teach Muay Thai, Boxing, Kickboxing, BJJ, Wrestling, and/or MMA.
I’m sure some people will disagree how the classical martial art they train is superior. I challenge them to go record 5 rounds of full contact sparring at a local MMA gym. (Excuses invariably follow)
Youtube Test: If you are confused if this type of marital art is good or bad for fighting, simply YouTube “(marital art) Tournament”. If it looks like this or this, it is gay. If it is like this or this , it is good.
Red Flags: Now that we have found what we want to train, we need to find good trainers. Do a quick google for MMA/BJJ/Muay Thai in your area. Call each and then ask the following 4 questions when you call to get more information;
1. Do you have a fight team, and do they fight regularly?
2. Where did you train and have you done fights?
3. Do your striking classes spar and/or do you grappling classes roll?
4. How much does it cost?
First three questions MUST be yes, with the caveat that for striking classes it should generally be light sparring, heavy sparring regularly is just asking for big injuries. Last one should be a monthly fee it will vary by region but don’t be surprised to hear $100+. If any are no’s or there is a weird fee structure, that is not the gym to train at.
What to Train: If possible, train both a striking and grappling art, and mix some MMA classes in there. I personally try to go on days there’s Muay Thai before BJJ, so I can get both in.
What’s Next: Show up, shut up, and listen. Once you are there, make sure everyone is friendly, and classes are generally full, but not overcrowded. Don’t make excuses when you lose, learn and improve. These guys will look big, tough, and intimidating but generally they are all good guys. Getting your shit rocked is a humbling experience, there’s a lot of humility at MMA gyms.
Join the chat for any other questions, I recommend Tactical Barbell for scheduling lifting, MMA, and Conditioning.

How can the esoteric potato growers up the ante of the potato barrel? With the pomato or "ketchup and fries."
This is a tomato plant grafted onto a potato plant. Because both these plants are nightshades they are able to share a root system. By cutting the top plant off the root system of the potato, you can replace it with the top plant of the tomato. The tomato uses the root system of the potatoes as the potatoes use the top plant food from the tomato. This saves lots of space and is a big food producer.
Keep in mind this is not a new plant. No genetic modifications took place. No breeding took place. Under normal circumstances one would not be able to plant these things close to one another as nightshades kill each other in proximity.

Popular torrenting site YTS provides IP address logs to copyright lawyers to extort you with
The second largest torrent site in the world, YTS, is actively working with copyright infringement lawyers to extort cash from torrent downloaders. This isn’t the only historical instance of a torrent site storing IP addresses to be used against torrenters but it is a confirmation of a disturbing new precedent which may stand on shaky legal ground.
In the past, torrent sites like The Pirate Bay (TPB) have stored IP addresses and even given them up as a way to pinpoint original uploaders of certain torrents. There have also been instances where YTS has given up logs in court for ongoing cases against downloaders. 👉🏼 The most recent revelation, though, is that YTS is also giving these logs to the Culpepper law firm in Hawaii so that Culpepper can send “Pay-Up-Or-Else Threats” to those that have used YTS, before a case is even filed. 👈🏼
That’s right… This time around, YTS is giving up the IP addresses and emails of downloaders to a copyright infringement lawyer who then turns around and tries to extort torrenters for cash settlements. TorrentFreak has been covering these revelations from YTS as part of an ongoing copyright infringement case against a US veteran. Now, TorrentFreak has seen a letter which confirms that torrenters using YTS are being caught up by what TorrentFreak calls “the most extraordinary business/legal arrangement ever witnessed in the piracy scene.” YTS provides the logs to Culpepper, who then sends the YTS user a threat of a case which can be settled for around $1,000.
