i began playing chess after a fare amount of martial arts training, Muay Thay, BJJ and American wrestling. I'd like to discuss the correlation between the two. 

 

MT is called "art of 8 limbs". Grappling definitely uses 8 points (at least) of contact, minus the strikes. 

 

I'm hoping this discussion will improve my chess, not my fighting. Thanks!

I find Muay Thai to be a good backup when my chess ability falters.

An excellent meal to have after one's lack of chess skill leads one to resort to violence!
