I'm asking from a martial art stand-point, as there seems to be a lot of anecdotal evidence out there by good fighters attesting that it helps you take SOME types of punches/be a little harder to get choked out. Regardless I'll be waiting to start training it until I finish my S.S. program, though I did use to do stuff like that for high school wrestling.
