Hey Kevin I came here after reading your techniques blogpost i found you very experienced and great instructor I would request you to make videos on these topics : - Mastering Breathing [The Greatest Problem During Fights] - Increasing Mobility and flexibility to Extent - Extreme Conditioning Body To WithStand Attack And Techniques And To Counter It. -Pressure Points To End A Fight By Knockout Which is guaranteed -About Weapons Waiting for your reply in this comment Thanks.
@@no-mad thanks for watching. If you put in my full name and the word weapons or breathing etc I have quite a lot on these topics already. I’m not a big advocate of brutal body conditioning per se but do have conditioning videos-just not. Too much on body hardening or beating the body. Thanks for watching.
@Combatprofessor thanks for replying To my message Kevin. You should Make A Video or explanation On Hard Body Conditioning To withstand blow or increasing Endurance to human limits. I would sure to check out your mentioned video.
Excellent topic! I’m definitely interested in learning to defend against headbutts. However, after the data coming out about CTE, it is a technique I would consider sparingly. On a slightly different topic that involves CTE, have you heard anything about long-time practitioners of judo or sambo having developed CTE? I ask because now it is thought that the American football players that play on the line and take minor-ish shots every play are more at risk than ever the players that get a few concussions. To me, those smaller, more frequent impacts would be similar to what a judoka takes every time they are thrown.
@@zachparade2791 for headbutt defense, the key is distance. Keep that meter plus and keep an active fence up, otherwise you will let them invade your reaction threshold. My previous video on distance might be of interest. As for CTE in those cases I would not be in the least surprised. Some years back a high level judoka mocked me for using crash mats. He said: “you’re using a bloody circus mat for kid”s gymnastics on top of a surface that already has tatamis? How about you learn how to fall instead!” I said absolutely. Sometimes we train on basic tatamis-it’s absolutely important, but for the majority of my drilling I prefer to use crash mats and the majority of my sparring starts on the knees, precisely because longevity is a main concern. Now when I see that same friend, he struggles to walk, has back issues, a bad knee and hip and he’s younger than me. Exactly as I say in this video above-I see no logic in damaging the very thing you’re seeking to protect . We all have a calculus of violence-we need to decide how much risk we are willing to accept for a desire gain. For me, I aspire to maintain health. My days of proving my toughness to myself or anyone else are long past.
Nice to see an intelligent appraisal of this age-old, but devastating, technique. Great as an opener, and often a finisher.
