This is the Fight Quest Episode where Doug & Jimmy try out Kyokushin.  Keep a few things in mind as you watch this. 1) Doug & Jimmy’s Japanese pronunciation is horrible, they say just about every Japanese word wrong. 2) They hammed it up pretty good for the camera. For example, we never fought on stone, in fact we never fought outside the dojo. When we did fight, it was always on a hardwood floor with a little spring & give. We only trained outside the dojo on Sundays when the weather was nice; we would jog through town, then run up hills and do some kihon (basics) outside. Other than that, we always trained inside the dojo. 3) Even though Doug & Jimmy are wearing white belts, they are not beginners, they are trained MMA fighters. 4) You will not fight or train this hard until you reach a pretty advanced level. I say this because I don’t want to scare anyone away from trying out Kyokushin. There is a reason they call this “The Strongest Karate.” Watch and you’ll see why.
