Not only is it in a WalMart, but they run DVDs 24 hours a day so you can train yourself.

Seriously.

[Chief_Suicide]

I guess we have to measure by the amount of money the guy makes. :eek:

And Bill 'Superfoot' Wallace is a part of this magic.

This could very well be a stroke of genius, if you really think about it.

[David Jamieson]

All the fatties and their tatties are there anyway. May as well hit each other, burn some sweat and then hit the mickey d's after bro.


:rolleyes:

lol@americana...

[Iron_Eagle_76]

lol@americana...

I'm sure this will happen in Canada also, the difference is no one will care.:p

All jokes aside, is anyone really suprised by this? Wal Mart would use anything under the sun to make money and this, just like most fads or flavor of the week, will die out in a few years. What a great conversation starter for the TapOut tools of the generation:

Douchebag #1- Yo man, where you train at?

Doucebag #2- Wal Mart, mother f***er!

Douchebag #1- Yo man, me too! I'll be back, I got to hit the athletic department and pick me up a rash guard and a pair of those sweet a**ss MMA Elite shorts!

Douchebag #2- Word.

[Lucas]

do you think walmart accept walk in challenges? if i win can i break the walmart sign over my knee?

[David Jamieson]

Douchebag #1- Yo man, where you train at?

Doucebag #2- Wal Mart, mother f***er!




This is very funny. :p

I can't wait til a UFC champ comes out of a walmart gym. lol That will totally blow some noodles.

The entire staff of Fairtex will collectively have a heart attack that day.

[wenshu]

Do we want to start a pool on how long it takes until someone is in an MRSA induced coma?

[Lucas]

I want to officially be the first person to issue an internet challenge to Walmart.

BRING IT ON WALMART YOU CANT HANDLE THIS!

[crashhelmet]

I wonder if they run tournaments? Winner gets a 25 dollar gift card, a 50 piece chicken nugget meal from the McDonalds next door, and their own parade through the store in those motorized wheelchairs.

[Almost A Ghost]

Wal-Mart MMA: Because buying a gun, ice cream, eye-glasses, prescriptions, and a TV in the same store wasn't enough.

[Syn7]

wow... i bet it will make a ton of money... its sad, but its smart...

and thats another thing... whats up with the scooters... its always the planet of a women knocking everything over as she passes by...

[Brule]

First time in a WalMart in the States about two years ago, my wife and i were floored by the amount of scooters buzzing around the store. Up here you would see two maybe three scooters and they are not even being used. Over there, it's like they got a fleet of them and all are being used. I guess it points to the obesity problem. :p

[David Jamieson]

We have obesity here in epidemic proportions, but nothing like what they are going through in the USA.

People are weird, they just don't want to deal with so many things that are at the foundation of their living. Pursue desires instead.

It is ridiculously apparent what needs to be done, but few undertake to go through the transformative process of return to origin.

anyway, just sayin...

[Lucas]

I knew Canada was a brother when I started watching that show trailer park boys on Netflix and realized the only difference between your white trailer trash and our is the way words with the word 'out' in them are pronounced.

yeah i can say in all honesty that you will never see that where i live... you see the odd fat woman on her own scooter....

thats just sad... the one time these planets would get exercise is when they are forced to leave home to go shop...now they can evenm sit thru that... the one time they would actually get exercise... these scooters arent doing anyone any favors....if you legitimately need a scooter you should already have one...

[Lee Chiang Po]

I suspect that Walmart has little to with this other than renting space to some franchise. I see it spreading because of this current fad concerning MMA as promoted on TV. It attracts a particular type of individual, such as you could see in the photo. Any time something gets popular amongst lots of people, someone will exploit that to make the bucks. If it makes money it is a smart move, if it burns out and costs money, it becomes a bad idea.
Obesity in this country is due to the corner convenience store and the fast food industry. Consumption of sugar based drinks probably leads the way. In 1900 the average sugar consumption was around 2.5 pounds. Today it amounts to somewhere in the hundreds of pounds. Adult onset diabetes was unheard of in 1900, but by the year 2000 it is as common as being fat. No longer is it called adult onset, but simply type 2. It now effects children below 10 years of age.
Nothing in nature that you could eat all at once will contain as much sugar as a single soda. I think I remember the content of a single 20 0z. soda being around 14 teaspoons of raw processed sugar.

Not so much due to their existence as the suppression of information about them.
There is also a suppression of information about healthy living with only a little lipservice paid here and there to it.

how many ads for healthy living do you see on the box compared to McDonalds, Wendy's, Softdrinks, Beer and candy ads?

How much information is regularly made available that cleraly indicates without pulling any punches that consumption of this stuff on a daily basis is actually deadly much the same as cigarettes are.

People don't seem to be able to make responsible choices in the greater percentage of the population. If they could there wouldn't be fast food places selling the crap they sell, no one would smoke, factory farming would be dead and autos would have been running on hydrogen cells or electricity 70 years ago already.

The real and genuine root problem is Greed. Greed will be our downfall, Greed IS our downfall.

Just saw Tom Callos' post this on facebook, figured it was worthy to bring to attention here. Tom Callos is a martial arts industry consultant.

‎(Spell-Checked Venison) I'm sorry, I have to say it: OK, so after hearing that there might be franchises sold to have martial arts schools for kids in Walmarts (announced at the last "convention") with a "Walmart Approved Curriculum, " where the kids are taught by instructors following along with TV-based instruction, well shoot, I was underwhelmed.

However, I was inspired to send out some signals to groups I thought might hold similar opportunities...so, just so all of you recognize that this is my territory now, I've send queries to K-mart, Skaggs Drugs, Popeyes Chicken, NAPA Auto Parts, Taco Bell (classes w/ hot sauce), ACE Hardware, Tidy-Bowl Plumbing, McDonalds (taught 10 million so far), and the Larry Flint organization.

I'd personally like a school for kids at Starbucks, except that my wife told me last week that the coffee roasting process they use makes your varicose veins explode (even if you don't have any)...or maybe it was your brain? Anyway, I'm really excited about how good it's going to be for the industry and for the martial arts in general, and, of course, for all the KIDS --if, for example, Chik-Filet bites on my idea of a branch school in each location. We can hire instructors who follow a televised Chik-Filet (sp?) approved curriculum, taught be really, REALLY good teachers in chicken suits.

For franchise sales, call me, my number is 1-800-Kano's-turning-in-his-grave.

There's an AutoZone in the ghetto part of town. We train the students by making them count a stack of dollar bills in the parking lot.

They even have Tai Chi! (http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news/306767/MMA-studio-opens-in-Oklahoma-WalMart/) :eek:

[TenTigers]

notice how already the place looks like a s***hole.
Clutter all over the place.
Completely unprofessional.
Well, what do you expect...
:rolleyes:

[Jimbo]

Why not? Almost everything else inside Walmart originates in China. :D

[Almost A Ghost]

It's like everything you hate about dime-a-dozen karate schools with 8 year old black belts conveniently located next to tube socks and ****ty produce.

[sanjuro_ronin]

Anything to get fat people moving.

[GeneChing]

And give the thread a new title. ;)

[San Soo Sifu]

There was a full page ad in this month's MAIA magazine offering franchise opportunities inside of your local Wal-Mart. I couldn't believe it when I read it! :eek:

[Lucas]

Lets all open schools in Walmart.

[bawang]

theres no point to opening a school at walmart. you need to open your school near a liberal arts college to get the white wimmins.

That guy is a joke. You got your judi chop, your karate chop and your ninji chop. The person in the red gi is me. I am the deadliest karate master. My pimple popping exercise has made my hands as hard as iron.

He's not kidding. This is the way of the Xia. Daoist prefer useful women with more yin. 丰满
