What do you do when you're a martial arts expert, but studying Martial Arts has become boring?

[SeekerOfTruth007]

I was just watching a Grand Master's teaching video, and I realized I already knew everything he was teaching in a ~30 minutes kata bunkai video... on the most advanced unarmed kata in the style. It's like that every time these days. There pretty much isn't a move in Martial Arts that I haven't had demonstrated directly on me in the past, and that I either didn't already know or didn't already know how to counter that move.

Even something as important as Martial Arts gets boring when you already know almost everything that really works, and I can't afford to pay someone $200 per month to learn the stuff I supposedly don't know, because the instructor only shows up once or twice per month there anyway.

What would you do if you were me?

I quit video games because they are too easy and boring as hell. They're all marketed to the central mean 12 years old instead of the adult who's paying for the game.

You venture into something new, well at the same time not forgetting what martial arts means to you.

[AI Opinion]

It's great that you've achieved such expertise in martial arts. To reignite your passion, consider exploring new styles or disciplines that challenge you in different ways. This can help expand your skills and keep things interesting. Teaching or mentoring others could also be rewarding, providing a fresh perspective and deeper appreciation for martial arts. Engaging in competitions or demonstrations may reignite some excitement and motivation as well. Transitioning to other physical or mental challenges, like yoga or meditation, might also help maintain a balanced and refreshed mindset. 🌟🥋

Back in reality, this is you.

Back in reality I know I've tapped out pro fighters before in 10 seconds flat.

I don't need an anonymous shit poster who doesn't know what they're talking about to come on here and falsely accuse me.
