Confidence. Absence of insecurity. Willingness to help someone being bullied. BJJ is hard on the body, but practice makes your body hard. Do not get proud. There's always someone bigger and quicker to return you into reality.

I just started learning boxing and there's something beautiful about embracing the "art" of fighting . From stances to the form for the most explosive and most effective punch to feeling the changes in your body as you move and become familiar with the different mechanics of the various motions .

It's hard to explain but I have begun to love and embrace boxing and to be fair it's probably the most basic of all the fighting styles and I'm only a month end .

It builds confidence and I'm sure all Martial arts help you to feel " One" with your body . You mind and body become one through the motions . Again hard to explain but I love what I've enjoyed from them so far and I JUST started.

In my neighborhood all the MMA style art classes are full of dadbods pretending to workout.

Vet your gym strictly and make sure they are not just midlife crises.
