Does this taekwondo dojang look like a scam?

And he has produced such excellent and powerful warriors like you.

To his own defense he quotes teaching martial arts for over 20 years plus marriage and two kids to his large girth lol.

Oh yeah the old he birthed two kids and never shook the baby weight excuse.

You know you are a fucking idiot right ?

but I thought....women gave birth right? what does having two children have to do with weight increase for men? :sad3:

my 0.2 for prince though- I would say that the dojang is pretty legit. it doesn't matter if the instructor happens to be overweight...as long as he could still demonstrate the required moves...

That's what I thought. I'm going through that my self. A guy gains baby weight to. You end up eating more cause she is hungry and she doesn't want to eat alone. You spend less time at the gym cause you should spend more time with her. You get McDonald ice cream when you don't need it but she does. Friday night is double cheese burger night cause its what they have a taste for. Get the drift.

i get the drift. you're too much of a ***** to stand up to the wife and tell her that she won't be feeding your unborn child a bunch of shitty food ;)

garbage in = garbage out and all that jazz

I gained a huge amount of weight when my wife was pregnant. Of course having a blown out knee was one of the deciding factors.

Yeah but I love those double cheese/burrito Friday nights.

no significant red flags to me.

that is nothing compared to some of the mcdojo belt factories i've seen in my day.

... but are you still toting around that huge amount of weight?

Did having a child destroy your ability to test, compete in martial arts events or or teach classes hands on?

Do you use it as a lame excuse to your students when you are too fat to throw a head kick or spar for a full 2 minute round ?
