Tom Stall 07-16-2008, 04:05 PM i thought u were going to bjj? Rob 07-16-2008, 04:09 PM I think if someone comes at you with a gun and probably a knife most people will freeze. They'll teach you stuff like groin strikes and eye gouges that you'll never practice. Take up BJJ, you can practice everything, it's a load of fun and you'll be amazed at how fast you progress. There's also more male touching. dynamitemitch 07-16-2008, 04:26 PM i think it depends what your priorities are. if your interested in something that can carry over to competition and mma then take bjj. if ripping out someone's throat is a goal you have, take krav maga. on a more serious note i hear it can improve some of your grappling skills, i guess carlos newton used to take krav maga before opening dragon ball jiu jitsu (or whatever the fuck he's called his gym) ninjashoes 07-16-2008, 04:41 PM i thought u were going to bjj? doesent krav maga have BJJ in it? thats what I thought, Ive seen vids of them practicing and it looked sorta like MMA but they have a ton of gear on and go all out. ninjashoes 07-16-2008, 04:43 PM I heard most krav maga instructors have belts in bjj Tom Stall 07-16-2008, 05:25 PM doesent krav maga have BJJ in it? thats what I thought, Ive seen vids of them practicing and it looked sorta like MMA but they have a ton of gear on and go all out. its like systema and aki jujitsu. it might have some self defense application but as a ring sport its useless. ninjashoes 07-16-2008, 05:44 PM I dont ever want to compete, I am not into that at all. Competing just makes you feel sad when you lose. ^^emo SD_ATOmega119 07-16-2008, 07:26 PM krav is jsut the summation of all the good parts of real fighting...but i have many friends that take krav and it does prepare for a real life esituation to and extent but it moreso just practicing groin shots everything esle is jsut your basica kickboxing and grappling its really for like a war situation bc i mean if your in a bar fight maybe its jsutu me im not think about ball kicks and eye gouges but it also has great gun and knfe defense but if someone ever pulls a gun anyone should know jsut to run instead of even attempting that stuff bc most likely your getting shot or stabbed mullard 07-24-2008, 08:37 PM I was wondering if I should take krav maga? I heard it can train you for real life situations. Watch the Episode of Fight Quest: Krav Maga, It will give you a better perspective of what it is like. I was taking Krav Maga for a few months and then got tired of it. It is mainly police training and weapon disarming which is really boring imo. I would take up bjj if I were you cuz it is a lot more fun than bjj, bjj is a much much better excercise, and Im sure you will be in more fists fights than gun fights in your life time so WARR BJJ. If they have a gun....RUN!!!! vBulletin® v3.7.4, Copyright ©2000-2008, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd. |
