One thing I used to do is fight. When you fight it's such a release. My only gripe is I'm early 30s now and don't recover quite as fast from injuries and intense workouts having my heart rate up
I think most of us agree here on this forum that in this day and age fighting is not a very positive way to manage anger.
Can get you hurt, can injure someone else, and can lead to loss of freedom.
Also, one thing that irks me more than anything is guys who go out and start fights with others because they're in a bad mood or like fighting. I confess I've done it spur of the moment when boozed up a few times, but it's hardly fair to the guy whose night you're ruining - even when you take on more than one (I say this because sometimes you can convince yourself it's "okay" if the odds are against you, but it's not).
Using someone's head as a punching bag to release your frustration is far from positive.
We're intelligent men here; we should hold ourselves to a higher standard.
Sparring could be a better option if you think you can manage your emotions while doing so and not end up trying to hurt your partner.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling
