I've done TKD, Hapkido, some Aikido, BJJ, Judo, Tai Chi, some MT, and Hungar. My friend also taught me some techniques from Hwarangdo and a few wrestiling techniques and I learned some boxing. Although I'm out of shape now since I haven't been training.

@Leedizzle, I actually found that depends on what techniques you put emphasis on in TKD. If you just put emphasis on the high kicks than I agree, but what people tend to forget is that TKD does teach punches, elbows and knees. It also has many techniques to the legs, but they're not utilized as much as lets say Taekkyon and Muay. It's just people don't train those areas of TKD (well at least most; there was one guy I knew that had some devastating punches, elbows and knees, but that's an exception)
