Ryan Matyas

January 27, 2017

From Tucson, Arizona to the 7s World Series and the ARC Championship Ryan Matyas has been on a tear, cutting through defenses on the rugby pitch. With the ability to play center, fullback and wing, Matyas is a defenders nightmare and a coaches dream. He took time out from his training with the Eagles to share a little bit about himself with Human Weapon.

Name: Ryan Matyas

Sport: Rugby

Hometown: Tucson, AZ

Height/weight: 5'1"/195lbs

Favorite work-out song: Runnin' by 2Pac

Favorite post-work-out meal: Eggs, avocado, rice, spinach, hot sauce.

What you do when you’re not training: Hanging with family and friends, sleeping, coaching youth rugby.

Proudest accomplishment: Playing against South Africa in the Hong Kong 7's.

Toughest moment and how you persevered through it: Not being selected for the 2013 Colligate All Americans 15's NZ tour. Went back home trained hard for a few months and got an opportunity to play for All Americans 7's in the Serevi RugbyTown sevens. Won the Cup with the All Americans and got offered a USA 7's contract after that.

What does being a Human Weapon mean to you: I think the tenets say it all, Strength, Discipline, Sacrifice, Respect. These are all things I truly believe in when it comes to achieving what you want in life and especially in Rugby. And to be chosen as a HW-Athlete is an honor.

Advice to others on their warrior’s journey: There is no substitute for hard work.

Why Traditional Martial Arts Are Making A Comeback

November 25, 2016

We see martial arts all the time. In films, on TV and now the UFC has taken them mainstream.

However, even though we see countless MMA gyms popping up, the small struggling traditional martial arts have been going through a drought. But it needn't be that way, nor do I think it will be forever.

Russian Sambo V BJJ: Which Is Better?

November 24, 2016

When it comes to grappling, we always hear the same argument; which is better Judo or BJJ?

While Judo is certainly the most well know grappling sport along with wrestling, people tend to forget it has a Russian Cousin which is considered one of the most devastating fighting arts ever created. That sport is, of course, Russian Sambo.
