Arm Drag Series: CACC Catch As Catch Can



This is how to do a proper arm drag, not the sport version but the old school arm drag that propels the opponent forward to not get his elbow dislocated, locks are hooks that have failed, the old art of hooking (breaking limbs) instead of submissions.

The Science of Practice: What Happens When You Learn a New Skill

I would advise anyone who wants to learn combat shooting to contact Greg Cruz, he is the best I have seen and feel proud to have the honour to have received training from him. Everyone claims to be the best, what really impressed me besides his amazing merits and skills was his teaching method, as being the best doesn’t always equates with being the best teacher, but he does gives one the skills and method to get the best out each person, a rare quality that he posses, to be the best and give the best training so you give your best effort to become the best you can be. Check out his Facebook page.

100-man kumite. Shokei Matsui




It is insane and I have total respect for those who can do it, my 7 man kumite was pure hell as I was gassed out before the fights from the physical test and they were pure survival fights, just hanging in and try to win the 4 fights I needed to get my belt, that I barely managed to do and the last fight I was a punching bag as I couldn’t move at all and just hoped to not get KO, I was covered in blood and it was normal, on every photo of a 10 man kumite I have seen at the dojo I trained at, they were all smeared in blood and looked like they had been brutally assaulted, which the fight test becomes very fast no matter how well prepared one believes to be. Last time I did something similar was 8 years ago in an initiation ritual at an Old Boys Kyokushin club for high level above 30 years old, it was only punching 2 minutes rounds against 8 opponents in a row with no breaks in between, the first 4 tried to avoid to get hit and were defensive while I punched with maximum power, when I gassed out they suddenly stepped up the intensity to maximum intensity as I could not counter attack and I was in a pure survival mode, only trying to defend myself and the clock seemed so slow as it would never end, I hate those what I consider torture test as I learn nothing other that gassing out is the point where anyone can beat the crap out of me, but I knew that so it was merely the old school Kyokushin experience of getting beaten hard and survive and not quit before the order to stop is announced, I can't believe that I actually  did want to one day try to do it when I was a teenager, happy I didn’t do it as my favourite fighter almost died from dehydration and the beating as he was not allowed to drink water in an extremely hot dojo with huge spotlights for the camera that raised the temperature even more, such test can do permanent damage as it had on the 7 years in a row world champ with no weight classes.

Anoka woman who fought back during knife attack tells others to "Fight Like a Girl”

Angela Champagne-From relied on her self-defense training to fend off a knife-wielding attacker. She wants to make sure other women can fight back, too.

Athene's Theory of Everything



Interesting, for those who knows what Coin Theory is try to change the label wave and particle with attack and defence, the concept of time of only the present as the only important factor, the probability of where an electron appears statistically random with the use of techniques in combat. Then compare it with the model of the Copenhagen interpretation of Quantum mechanics and see if you can spot a similarity. One can easily create a model that fits but it will be pseudoscientific even if it matches so perfectly, but one can create more than philosophical conclusion out of this movie, a philosophical pseudoscientific model for combat. It will seem weird and odd if one is not into the laws of combat and not trained in AMOK!.

National Guard airman awarded for bravery




Gregory Grutter, or Greg Cruz is the best firearms instructor I have the chance to meet and receive training from, visit his website http://interactivegunfighting.com. I have watched a lot of DVD’s about combat shooting, but I have never seen anyone who could cover that in a way that was for me mind blowing, both the method, content and the person was far beyond my wildest expectations. His approach to teaching will change the way I teach, I would vouch him as the best for anyone who wants to learn no BS skills in the most efficient and safest way. His life reflects that he is not a virgin teaching sex as many do, so what you learn has been tested and is not based on a few incidents. Respect is the single word I would use to describe the man, for his combat experience, bravery, skills, knowledge, the way he teaches and pass on information that will save your life the day you need what he teaches. I am proud to have gained a new teacher and brother. AMOK!

Escaping from Zip Ties: Breaking (Rear)

Judo Instructor Loses His Cool




LMAO this is so funny, wonder if the teacher lives by belt colour, this is truly a compliant setup for training, I would never train any thing when with a minimal resistance the techniques don’t work their magic.

Qi 4.1 Prototype No.5


The words “Silver twill G-10 handle” is now on my to buy list, I would ship my favourite silver coins and hopefully buy a custom made piece of art with as many components as possible made with silver and with a mechanism that is legal where I live, silver is one of my top hobbies and would love to have the best blade on the planet from http://www.yunaknives.com made with the first silver coins I purchased, as it kind of fits to protect silver with silver.
