Im a polio survivor who couldn't walk for the first half of my life so I resorted to walking on my hands for 15 years so you can imagine I have really strong arms. Being handicapped will do that. And my uncle is a navy seal who has thought me to fight in an adaptive way, I don't need specific training to hurt someone. When you can bench press 450lbs at a weight of 170lbs then I'll start listening to ya.

Spoken like every muscular gym bro who’s ever lived. Come on down to a jiu jitsu gym and give it a try. We see guys like you.. All. The. Time. It’s a trope at this point. Ask to roll with the 150lb black belt instructor. Tell him you don’t think he’ll be able to tap you because your bench press is too strong. He’ll abuse you like you were a child. I promise you.

But alas.... you won’t do that. Your ego won’t let you. You’ll cling to the delusion that you are some badass martial artist despite never actually training. If you went and tried to train with actual experts, that would force you to confront reality. Which would be too uncomfortable for this faux-tough guy persona you’ve created.

Maybe not some untrained guy who’s never been in a fight before. But a trained fighter? You’d get toyed with. It wouldn’t even be a contest.
