I love KFM and Defence Lab. However, I never agreed with the punching. All the elbow attacks are good for close quarters, so thats what I take from it.
I think there is something to take away from some of the punching. Some of it is out of the box and I like it. Some of it is absolutely ridiculous, and makes no sense whatsoever. But again, context goes a long way. Sometimes though, sadly, some of that context makes no sense either. But I do agree, the elbows are on another level completely.
@@lycandefensive Can you do a video of some of the elbow techniques? My favorites are when they get grabbed, it turns into elbow city for the enemies arms, and chest lol
Ah, you caught me. Dang. And here I was thinking I was trying to give you the context on why these people do the things they do, and the reasoning on why these things are "complicated".
3:00 I understand the contextual scenario. To me it seems a bit complex and it degrades your offensive focus to the immediate threat you're face to face with. I do appreciate the thought behind this particular technique? What do you think about angling out after your reponse (granted there's room) which would create distance from any potential attacker sneaking up behind you?

I think that anything that you can do to create space and allow yourself the chance to manuver to a better position so you can get away or neutralize the threat is absolutely ideal. And I agree, I do think it is too complex. Not to mention that a bulk of these skills being expressed in these systems tend to keep you in the same position that you're in. You operate from one set place. This is done a lot in baseline training and it transfers in adapted skill. I think there are better ways for sure. Thanks for the comment!!
@@lycandefensive thanks for your receptibility. I typically run into hostility no matter how respectful I give my opinion on specifically self defense methodology. would train with you any day 😇
I'm afraid what I see in this is a lot of head holding when it might be better to be attacking, and too much distance when punching at the wooden dummy - your arm was locked out straight - you were too far away. A small move to the side and in toward your opponent would lock them up and get you in striking distance.
Great observations! I guess I should have put somewhere that this was just a demonstration, and not an actual fight... on a wooden dummy, and that I (for the viewers) wanted everything to be visible. But hey, thanks for the boxing lesson. I took notes.... promise.
DUDE! I totally see this style all the time in Bare Knuckle Boxing. Great stuff man!

@@LambSauce. I can definitely do that for you!
Says to his audience: "Don't complicate things." Then proceeds to complicate things.

@@redpillpusher thank you for exactly the same thing!! And the feeling is mutual!
I feel like you made this video to satisfy the trolls. 😂
