Hey guys, I want to get the words 'Rule Seven' (Yes, fight club reference) done on me, but can't decide on a way to do them. I'm hoping someone can mention something that sparks the train of thought on this. I've been thinking on it for 3 months, but can't quite place my finger on it.

For those that don't know, rule seven of fight club is 'The fighting continues for as long as it has to'. If I combine my wrestling and BJJ time, I'm over the eight year mark, and don't see any end in sight. I've come to the realization that I'm going to be doing this for as long as I need to, I don't know why I need to, but I do need to - a few months back I was hurt and took a month off training and people at work started to ask if everything was okay in my personal life. That sort of put things into perspective for me.

I've thought of just doing the words running down the back of my calves. I've thought of doing it between the shoulder blades with a black belt around it. I've thought about doing two grapplers about to tie up with it above and/or below it. Nothing seems exactly right.

Any ideas?

My tattoo artist always discouraged me from getting a lot of words done. He said that a big block of text doesn't age well, and for text to really last, it has to be done big.

So he always recommends using a picture to represent the text and use as little text as possible.

But yours is a tough one. Maybe you could go with gladiators or samurais if you can't find a good MMA/fight clubbish picture.
