I promote shooting firearms. My opinion, for TRP purposes, but political beliefs aside.

Shooting is the equivalent of 'military training' for the civilian. Various clubs/ranges have free 'run and gun' or 'active shooting' where you move around behind targets and/or with stress involved. I think about it in a more fundamental "This was how the world was created" sense.. like generations before us were in WWII and such, or even before that, people used firearms to hunt and bring food in for the family.

You can pick up surplus rifles for cheap (Mosin Nagants, SKS, etc..). Surplus ammo is also cheap. Or .22 if you just want to plink around. There are various 9mm pistols on the market for cheap.. 9mm is also a good plinking around for the cost.

*Disclaimer: Check the laws in your state and abide by them.

I like MMA and BJJ. Great workout, great fun, it's great to know you can fight, it's a great conversation topic, and there's a ton of alpha image in it. Only downside is lots of DOMS and lots of bruises.

1) Shooting. Some sort of shooting sport such as idpa/ipsc or silhouette or trap shooting. They have clubs for every sport.

2) Hunting or fishing. More clubs available, usually wrapped up into one club with general shooting.

3) Martial arts. MMA is popular nowadays but traditional is just as good. Again, plenty of clubs to join.

I'm taking motorcycle lessons this weekend. I'm scared shitless because I haven't been on a bike before, but it's something I've always wanted to do.

American football, wrestling, or rugby

Join your local volunteer fire department. /r/firefighting can help you with more information. Don't join the ems unit, as it will be full of betas and unattractive females.

Pocketknives are pretty nice. Love collecting them.

StarDestinyGuy · 2015-07-16T13:54:07+00:00

Martial arts. Personally, I recommend Tae Kwon Do.

Love me some boxing. It's obviously a very masculine environment but people(mostly mem) give you extra respect when they find out you box seriously,more so than even mma or bjj,probably cause it's just more well known and has a grittier image to it.

And nothing is better than being known as the guy who boxes, insta social proof with other guys which carries on to women.
