I’m currently taking taekwondo classes and everytime we spar, I get injured in some way (or extremely exhausted). I’m also afraid to kick sometimes because I’m alwas afraid of counter-attacks or some sort. lol I get a little angry when I get hit by a back kick. (it hurts even with sparring gear) Any way to overcome this fear? (afraid to get hit in the crotch- it happened once)
Well, I have been doing Taekwondo for aobut 5 years and am about to test for third degree black belt. I really dont do it as much for the fighting but really just to get good workouts and t ostay in shape. I’m just not sure if it realyl would help me in a real fight because we dont spar or stuff liek that full contact. Btw im really good at it but im just npot sure if it is really all it is cracked up to be…

when you compete or spar in practice, you have to wear protection and gear and everything. a couple days ago, my friend was dissing me-saying that i shouldn’t wear protection b/c in the real world i won’t have any if i get into a fight. should i still wear it? i know i can get seriously injured but what my friends say really makes a difference. and im confused. help?

At taekwondo, after our usual exercises, we spar. There is this guy that is like fat and twice my size in my class and Im only a teenager. Everytime I spar against him, he hits me soo hard and the whole point of sparring in our taekwondo class is to get used to it and not to actually hurt the person u are sparring against. What should I do. I definitely dont want to tell my teacher that I dont want to spar against him. (its what my mom suggested.) So yeah I really need ur help in this situation. How do I stop him from like beating me up in taekwondo?
