Kendo (ken = Schwert und do = Weg oder Weise). Kendo ist eine Art abgewandelter Schwertkampf wie ihn schon die Samurai ausfochten. Hierbei soll der Schüler nicht nur das Kämpfen erlernen, sondern den Weg als solchen. Er soll moralisch, charakterlich und selig gefestigt und entschlossener werden. Das jetzige Kendo entstand ungefähr...

Capoeira erinnert mehr an einen Tanz als an einen Kampfsport und genau da liegen auch die Wurzeln der brasilianischen Kampfsportart. Als Afrikaner zu Kolonialzeiten nach Brasilien als Sklaven verschleppt wurden, entstand dort ein Melting Pot afrikanischer Kulturen. Tänze mischten sich. Besonders zu benennen, sind die Tanz- und Kampfspiele Batuque, Luta do...

It’s hard to keep training for ectomorph and hardgainer body types, because training progress is hardly visible at first. No matter how much they eat they stay thin, just like me, I can confirm that. Yet, we should not forget that if muscles get trained anyway, they look extremely defined!...

Gyms are like holidays. It’s warm, it's noisy, there's towels everywhere, everyone's sweaty and everybody seems to speak German. I’ve been going to a gym close to my place for a while, but I admit I seem to have spent most of my time there observing people instead. Here are...

Escrima ist ein traditioneller philippinischer Kampfsport aus der Zeit, als Spanien noch der Kolonialherr des Inselreiches war.
