Mind to Muscle - a podcast by Derek McDonald and Hayden Rush

In this episode, Josh and I dive into the martial arts world. We discuss the various types of martial arts such as karate, judo, aikido, jujutsu, taekwondo, kung fu, Muay Thai, wrestling, kickboxing, boxing, US Army combatives, and Krav Maga, and our personal experiences with them.

We also talk about the importance of biomechanics in martial arts and how engineering concepts such as leverage, torque, and force can be applied to optimize technique and performance.

We explore finding the right martial art for your body type and how different styles can suit other people. We also discuss the importance of self-defense in today's world.

Throughout the episode, we share our personal insights and preferences on various martial arts styles and which ones we think would work best for us individually.

As we wrap up the episode, we leave you with the quote "It's better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war," reminding us of the importance of being prepared and trained for whatever life may throw our way.
