Eh, I did some of it
I feel it has the same problem that all other styles tend to
practicing unrealistic orunintuitive things
I don't know but I've heard a lot of great guys tell me that krav maga is one of the most practical martial arts out there. That's kinda what they designed it for. Practical hands-on self defense for soldiers, etc.
Clearly I.E. can make sport and cultural waves by monopolizing the revival of Gymkata. š https://youtu.be/5keiiLMIuuc
Great post @Punisher
@Tyler0317 would have some thoughts as well Iād wager
No shit^
Legit Tyler
Tips hatš©
Tylerās legit
My Brazilian jujitsu instructor was also a MCMAP instructor so thatās probably feeding this ....
I have the crooked nose to prove I can take a punch, lol š
Hopefully most of us in this forum doā¦
^^
I'm conflicted on MCMAP
I liked it a ton, but then got into MMA after leaving the .mil,,, SO much of the basic self-defense stuff doesn't work well against other skilled dudes.
We are then left at that eternal crossroads,
-Do we train to defeat skilled opponents, because those techniques are 'tried and true'.
or...
-Do we train to win as quickly as possible against the most likely(unskilled) opponent.
@Rogue The issue with Krav is it's is unspar-able
I don't know of a way to train groin kicks and eye gouges with a sparring partner, lol.
haha
Good point on the crossroads, tho.
@Punisher @Tyler0317 Okay, so having had some time to think about it, my first suggestion is defense on your feet. Literal defense. Fighting withdrawal, defending while back-pedaling, defending haymakers; basically, the art of getting out of there while being attacked (sometimes by multiple opponents) without turning your back
Yes Will. Agreed. Have you ever looked into the idea of āstackingā opponents?
Iām a about to teach a class... Iāll be back in about 2 hours and we can chop it up if you want.. or we could VC if peeps want in?
Would be nice to schedule a VC with all the brains on this
For real right!??
most nights at 9 my time (6 your time) work for me
I PMād @Tyler0317 I was gonna try to connect with him as well tonight... 6 works for me tonight ... hopefully he can make it..
rgr that lemme know
I'm free at 9pm central tonight
Don't let me hold back progress though
Can we do a different night? Would be good if all of us could get together at once
Sure.
I'm generally free after 6 central
Sounds good @Deleted User Iām smoking some salmon....
How about tomorrow night? Iām free all evening on Wednesday
Fellas, how can I bully my local friends into sparring regularly?
I talk about training like it's the most awesome thing in the world, until they ask a question
To which my response is "Dude let's go spar at the park right now, I'll teach you!"
