Hard vs Soft Martial Arts

You don't even have to spar, you can just do the drills, padwork and bagwork to stay in shape.

Sounds good. I think I'll give it a year or two so that I can move into town (waaaaay to impractical for me at the moment, I live in nowhere) and at the same time build up some dearly needed musculature.

Most BJJ clubs will do the same, where you don't have to "spar" if you don't want to. In fact, some of the more traditional BJJ places won't let you spar until you've been there 6 months or so. You'll do drills, learn technique but don't wrestle. Of course, you won't get as good quite as fast (if at all), but you'll get in shape and learn stuff.

I'm really mostly concerned with getting systematically punched in the jaw.

Then just work out on a heavy bag.

Why? I've never gotten a concussion, and I rarely use headgear.

Are you a pro boxer or something?

Too many chi balls to the head - have you seen the state of his chakras?

This is proof that the many thousands of psychic attacks leveled at Phrost over the years are starting to take their toll.

So that's why I keep forgetting where I put my car keys.

Damn astral ninjas. Anyone know the secret jiujitsu kata that defends against that?

Fight fire with fire and spirit attacks with spirits. At the moment my weapon of choice is a rather fantastic calvados my wife got me. Not one single successful psychic attack while the stuff is in my blood!

I suggest more beer
