Just a quick hello to everyone on the Forum.
My name is Alex and I'm 21. I'm not really one for joining forums as from my experiences in the past they often contain a lot of negativity, however after reading some previous posts I've been very impressed with the content!
I think what also sealed the deal was seeing who the moderators are - some very respectable names I recognise from martial arts / self protection world.
I have been training BJJ since October last year and have been dabbling in boxing on and off. I attended a boxing club for 6 months twice a week last year, just to get a grasp of the basics. Since then I've been trying to keep my hands sharp with a Century Bob punch bag - mainly for drilling reps and line-ups.
For me personally I really enjoy the grappling however I understand the importance of having good hands. I have been following GT's teachings for the last couple or years or so and he has been a real inspiration to me.
I have only scratched the surface with my training and personal development and look forward to talking with you all and sharing experiences.
