My Krav Maga story from last year: this neighbor who trained KM insisted he could get out of a standing RNC by some krav maga twisting technique. He insisted I put him into a standing RNC. I didn't even want to do it because I was in chess mode. Anyways, he asked me again, and I humored him. I didn't even apply a tight RNC, but I applied the basics, and his twisting technique didn't work. He then moved the goalpost and told me I was doing it too well. It only works if I only had one hand choking him. But he clearly told me initially that his technique worked against people who train in BJJ. Granted, I haven't trained BJJ for a long time, so I doubt his technique would have worked on anyone. And this is not a criticism on him per se, because we've all fallen for faulty techniques and faulty teachers. Belief is a strong thing and sometimes we just want something quick that can work. Life gives us enough lemons, so to speak, so we all wish something could be that magic fruit punch that gives us all the nourishment we need. But much like good lemonade takes time to make, many things in life take time to do. I have to remind some of my friends this, even friends who have appeared on this channel. They might not fall for martial arts bullshido, but they'll fall for its equivalent in the financial world or education-wise. How do we think more logically and examine our fundamental principles? I don't have the answer. I can only say I'm constantly examining my own pathways. Looking forward to your comments!
As the Amazing Randi would often say, "You too can be fooled." We all have blind spots, particularly when we're stressed out, depressed, sleep deprived, sick, etc. which is why we should have a great deal of sympathy for the victims of scams in any of their forms. You might find a lot to like the somewhat defunct world of organized skepticism. I think there has long been a vacuum in the world of martial arts skepticism, which has a lot of low hanging fruit, but you can sort of pick your favorite subject. Give Skeptoid a shot.
It's amazing how many of these styles produce some strange form of anti-jiujitsu. Years ago I dropped by a local wing chun school just out of curiosity and watched the class. The instructor chatted with me afterwards and grappling came up, probably my fault since that's how I conceptualize martial arts, and he went on to explain to me how wing chun had a superior grappling and groundfighting system to jiujitsu, and that unlike BJJ, his groundfighting system could take on multiple opponents at once or something like that. I just politely nodded along. TMA guys seem to really obsess over BJJ and boxing specifically for some reason.
@@elenchus Some bullshidos claim to be the superior kind of martial arts, but in some scenario I don't fully understand - in a ring/cage fight, there are rules that render said bullshido obsolete or just ineffective, and in a street fight...well, you know how these go.
I know what technique you're talking about. It's a typical Krav Maga choke escape. It actually works against untrained individuals, but it won't do anything if the person knows BJJ.
yeah i did around 7 years of kickboxing and every 1-2 months i would feel my fighting evolves and gets better (which includes a decent amount of hard sparring as well). not sure what she expected to happen with like 2,5 months 😂
This is one of the great benefits of combat sports that isn't discussed enough. One of the most valuable things you get out of a style like jiujitsu (for instance) is just how much you suck and how helpless you are. I'm being a broken record here, but I particularly like BJJ for this because it's so soul crushing when you get under side control for the first time and you're just useless, but if you got to any sort of semi-serious sparring in boxing, Muay Thai, etc. you'd get a similar education. Even if you quit after a few months, you at least understand the depth of your suck and how vulnerable you are so you can make some more educated decisions to avoid confrontation and violence. I won't attack krav maga universally here (although I'm no fan, admittedly), but it appears that her krav maga school specifically has made her more vulnerable than before she began training by instilling a false confidence in her.
@@elenchus as a woman, I completely agree. I had an inflated ego for the first couple years of bjj and then realized that they were taking it easy on me because I sucked. Now that I’ve been training longer, and get my ass kicked for real, I know that I have no real chance against an attacker irl. In 2015, I could’ve gotten myself into a lot of trouble by not knowing reality. Size matters (in fighting)
yes i did bjj for couple months and often still think back to this years later. It's crazy how easily you can be oppressed even if you're a relatively strong guy. Now I try to avoid any altercations knowing how we are not as strong as we think.
@@beetastik8219 Size definitely matters, but if you've been training jiujitsu diligently for 10ish years at this point, I imagine you're pretty formidable nonetheless. There are definitely tough women out there, despite a size/strength disparity. Of course, that's worth remembering for we men as well. I'm only 5'11, which is quite short in martial arts circles and of mediocre build, so there's definitely a lot of guys much larger and stronger than me too.
@ Yes, the technique is carried out as follows: Nod your head up and down. Raise your left and right hands to show the assailant you are unarmed. Check pockets A and B. Select your wallet, and start giving it to the assailant. There is a deadly technique called Double Dinosaur Dragon Death Breath. It can clear out a subway car in minutes. Only a few have learned it, and even fewer have mastered it.
The rest of the clip was completely unwatchable. I cringed so hard I couldn’t finish it. Maybe the non martial arts viewers might enjoy that but i think for our martial arts enjoyment this speaks for itself 😝😝
Recognizing patterns is just a step. Its one of the first steps in learning a new skill. She is showing why it is detrimental to allow others to think they are doing better than they really are. They build that false sense of security and wind up getting themselves into a bad situation because of their overconfidence
Yep. That's another thing. Great point! She has been allowed to think she's doing better than she is. If she were doing compliance drills, they need to tell her, "This isn't actually throwing a 180 lb man." An honest martial arts school shouldn't go like, "GREAT JOB! You go girl! Now you can throw any man under 200 lbs."
the worst part of this false confidence is that running is often the best self defense... even trained fighters, knowing the risk of violence, would prefer to de escalate or remove from a situation.
Watch ultimate self defend championship tournament. They will show you quickly running is not always work out. You'll never know if the attacker is stronger, faster than you, and if they have multiple people waiting for you around the block, you are fked. Not to mentioned you can trip, fumble while panic running. We laugh when this happen in horror movie and said this is is unrealistic, but long behold, it could happen in real life.
@@mr.q337One its talking generally. Two, lets say the person is a better fighter or stronger you lose anyway so why would you not run away and take ur chances rather then stay their and be beat. Three, since you want to give examples how about i give one. Lets say the opponent has a knife but why would i ever run away right obviously when there might be someone pointing a nuclear warhead around the corner. Why would i ever take my chances rather than fighting a knife.
@@dc0he11 Could say leave the situation rather than running. Running when someone is chasing you depends on your speed and surroundings. Leaving when someone has an ego issue and just saying "my bad it's my fault I'm so sorry" will work most of the time and then the threat is simply gone.
I used to take Krav-Maga in my early 30s and used to get in periodic "street" fights when I was young and dumb. I have used Krav in an encounter to defend myself successfully (judo takedown) against a slightly larger untrained opponent but have also been completely detroyed in a similar situation against an active wrestler. In my opinion, a good Krav-Maga program is better than nothing but not as good as enduring the rigors of learning a combat sport. As a fitness enthusiast, combat sports hobbyist, and self defense guy my advice to a woman would be 1. Be in shape 2. obtain a CC permit and firearms training 3. GET a dog like a German Shepard 4. Move to a lower crime area 5. Make sure u date/marry a MAN
10 weeks of Krav, under 5 feet tall, and 100 lbs. I’ll say one good thing. She clearly has the fighting spirit but her ego and lack of awareness will get her in trouble if she doesn’t change soon. Hopefully, this was a humbling moment for her. I’ve taught Krav before and have always told my students, especially small women, that certain techniques just aren’t going to be best FOR THEM. Not all techniques make sense for everyone to attempt in a real scenario, especially with a significant size disadvantage. I think a good instructor should be honest about that and drill that into their students to prevent false senses of security. Run, if you can’t then de-escalate, and if you have to fight then exploit the most vulnerable available targets on your assailant until you can ESCAPE. That’s the point of self-defense training. Also, in my school we spar a lot. If your school doesn’t, leave. We also must have basic BJJ proficiency (at least a blue belt) to test for our black belt in Krav. Every school has different standards. Always do your research before making the commitment.
Yeah, the fact the every school is different is why a lot of mcdojos are able to prosper. I wish that all martial arts gyms/ dojos were standardizes and forced to adhere to stricter criteria. Maybe like a better business bureau for martial arts.
There is a reason for weapons training. Size matters. Seriously if you what learn to fight you must spar. I believe everyone when they start martial arts believes they are better then they really are. I believe everyone needs to be humbled. Bjj is not self-defense its wrestling with rules. The majority of the problem is schools need healthy students. So they don't spar you need a old gym or friends to train with guys that won't let you get a big head. But it gets hard the older you get. Training partners are few and far between. Always a pleasure jerry
It's better to do almost anything else than to learn 'self-defense' methods in 'self-defense' dojos (or whatever it's called). I'm not saying that's the case in this video (it might be just for the laughs, idk), but I know people who were killed-hit in the head and stabbed-because they were overconfident in their own 'self-defense abilities'. Both of them were specifically studying 'self-defense'. This is prevalent in certain places that hyperfocus on teaching dirty techniques and the like, while completely disregarding other important aspects of martial arts.
@@FightCommentary They lived in residential areas here in Brazil. I can't say it's not dangerous, though. They were students at those weird 'self-defense' McDojos, you know? They feel more like a cult or a brand than anything related to a martial art. I'm not familiar with Krav Maga but that chick reminded me of those guys.
@@FightCommentary There was a famous case here in Brazil recently. Look for "lutadora de jiujitsu imobiliza ladrao". A woman submiting a real thief. There are a lot of similar cases in Brazil. I think most of them are real, yes, but those aren't 100lbs women. More like 150lbs, strong and athletic women that practices BJJ
The difference between her and real bullshido is that the only thing she has on the line is her ego and ultimately her safety if she got into trouble by thinking she was more capable than she is in a real life situation. I hope this wasnt too discouraging for her and she keeps trying to learn how to protect herself.
I took a year and a half of Krav Maga at one location and then had to quit because I lost my job and needed to save money. I took six months at another location but had to quit because a problem at my new job forced me to work too many hours and be on the road. I'm no expert in Krav Maga or anything else, but I have a few experiences. First, I never learned to put someone in a rear-naked choke. All of my instructors had the attitude that if I were in a position to get behind someone that way, I could push the person forward, gain distance, and hope that the attacker would not want to continue the attack. If the attacker did try to continue the attack, I would try to strike to disable the attacker and then gain more distance. I realize that every class is handled differently, but I'm a bit surprised that her instructors were trying to teach her a rear-naked choke in the first ten weeks of training. Secondly, I was often paired with women in exercises. I am 5'11" tall. I weighed anywhere between 270 and 285 pounds when I was taking Krav Maga. One of my favorite training partners was 6'2" tall and weighed 350 pounds. When he wasn't there, I sometimes had a problem finding a partner my own size. After everyone paired up with someone of a similar size, I was left training with a woman. I would be compliant for quite a few repetitions until she started getting better. Then, I would add resistance. In some cases, I could be fully resistant and she could use the technique. In other cases, I had to stop resisting at some point. At times, instructors would make the female students practice on me. The idea was that they couldn't practice against another woman and pretend that they had mastered the technique. They'd sometimes have to show that they could use the technique against a guy who weighed less but was more athletic. Other times, they had to show that they could "throw the fat guy" to show that they knew the technique. One young lady was fourteen years old and probably weighed 100 pounds. Her father was an instructor (maybe the owner) at the dojo although he taught Tae Kwon Do and not Krav Maga. She had plenty of experience. When we were doing defense against a mounted choke, a woman in her thirties wanted to try throwing the fat guy. She needed a few attempts, but she could eventually escape even though I was offering some resistance. The instructor then wanted the fourteen-year-old to throw the fat guy. Admittedly, I was very slow putting my weight on her. When I applied the choke, she started the defense. She was so fast that I was on my back before I realized that she had moved. I just remember being on my back shouting, "Great move!" She drove an elbow into my chest and was on her feet before I could have caught her with my legs. Later, we were going gun drills with those rubber guns. I ended up paired with the teenaged girl again because again, none of the guys was nearly as heavy as I was. As we started practicing the techniques, I was moderately compliant. As she felt ready, I added resistance. I think she was even telling me how much resistance to give. At full resistance, she made her move on the gun and bent that rubber gun 180 degrees. I really don't know whether I could have maintained my grip if the gun had been real. Maybe I could have kept her from moving the gun. I think I was using only a one-handed grip. She probably could have twisted a real gun out of my hand. With that training gun, the gun bent under the force of her defense. Clearly, the girl in this video didn't know what she was doing. I don't automatically assume that every small woman won't be able to offer effective defense against an attacker. I would still try to help if I saw someone attacking a woman, but I'm aware that maybe she could handle the situation on her own. In that case, my only job would be watching her back against surprise attacks from a thug's buddies.
I think she was trying to describe how to apply a Gable grip, which is sometimes used in a rear naked choke, but she couldn't even get that part right.
If I were running a woman’s self defense course, it would consist of basic highschool/college style wrestling as a base. The problem I see is that these women’s self defense classes is that they Mickey Mouse a lot of random techniques rather than consistent fundamentals and tactics. Without consistency, you will not learn a thing.
At her size, if she really wants to be able to protect herself she should do 3 things; learn how to wrestle, learn some BJJ submissions and mount escapes, and lift weights for general strength training, those 3 things outside of having some kind of weapon could save her life in a real confrontation.
In early BJJ times I sparred as a whitebelt with women who were blue or violet belt and had years of experience in sparring. I didn't attacked them as I used to do with male opponents, just resisted their attacks and didn't let them to take over. The women could only do any technique if I let them. Against an agressive male they have very poor bed.
I don't think not knowing names is an issue. I could hang out for weeks with people without knowing their name without ever disrespecting or ignoring them. I would just lack their names
First, thanks. I’ve seen videos of this popping up in my feed for a while now and hadn’t watched them. This was short and showed all we really needed to see. What should she realistically do if she lives somewhere outside the USA and can’t carry a gun? Well I always tell small people they’re starting at a serious disadvantage already, but I’d suggest she keep seriously training striking and grappling for the long term but I’d insist that she learn to use and carry an edged weapon at all times. Someone that small already gives up so much that they need an equalizer to make up for it.
@@williegreen5543 As in her mind she was the authority in self defense in the room. She could say anything. Did you see the continuation of this? She was claiming she tought the guy a lession, she said she gave him a first free Krav Maga lession, that she didn't use full force and could do much more if they didn't stop her...
@@cesarcrash yeah, the delusional is so strong, and the only reason I can see for this is, 1) she is already pretty dumb 2) he trainer have got to be feeding into this delusional thinking so that they can keep her as a paying member.
Well, they all knock me down at ease... Now seriously, the funniest part was yet to come. She believed she taught him a lesson, said she didn't use full force and could do much more if they didn't stop her!
The blame should be on the instructor for over selling. No martial art is going to give a 100 lb woman a reliable advantage over a man of his size. Martial arts training might give her a chance of getting lucky by surprising an attacker, but it isn’t going to turn her into a Marvel character or bend the laws of physics. She should absolutely be learning to defend herself, but she should also be made aware of just how much skill and luck it will take her to defeat someone twice her size.
@ I agree Judo can help a smaller opponent but it still would not put this girl on even footing with a man his size. She might get lucky, but 9 times out of 10 he would be able to dominate her. Judo is wonderful but it is not magic.
@@koraegi Bro how he she gonna sweep or flip him if she can even get arms around him to or generate enough of a push to off balance him. also what judo gonna do to when she gets a haymaker from someone 100 pounds heavier with a 12 in reach advantage 🤣 im not trying to be rude its just that there are a lot more variables that a single martial art cannot even come close to equalizing.
False confidence after learning some martial arts basics can be quite dangerous. Short story my dad told me from when he was enlisted in the Navy in the early 50s: He and some shipmates were on a brief shore leave and they were going to a local watering hole. My dad had had a few weeks of lessons in Judo at the time, as he told it himself "I barley learned how to take a proper fall, but in my mind I was a bad ass." As you can imagine that didn't go well when this group acted liked they owned the place, they weren't looking for any excuse to start a fight, but if it happened they'd be OK with it. Well didn't take long for the locals to get rowdy and pissed off at the sailors, especially after one of them kept hitting on a girl that was clearly not interested. Apparently one the locals threw the first punch, but my dad isn't sure on that detail, everything else he remembers is being able to duck under the punches of one guy and throw another over a table with a hip toss. He was feeling quite confident at that time until he saw a large shadow behind him. Now every time my dad tells the story the guy that stepped up behind gets bigger, but it was a big guy standing behind him and as my dad turned around he got picked up by this guy (apparently with one hand) and tossed over a table in to a corner where he then got hit over the head with a chair by another guy when he was trying to get up and he doesn't remember much after that other than somehow the MP got involved breaking up the fight.
An Aikido sensei told us, "If someone's bigger than you there's no such thing as a fair fight." If I'm not mistaken, Krav Maga emphasizes doing whatever you have to do to survive a violent situation. If someone her size absolutely has to fight someone larger she might want to look for a good improvised weapon or keep a collapsible combat knife on her (Recon 1). I am by no means an expert mind you
I absolutely approve it if she got into whatever martial art for discipline, inner peace, fitness and socializing. But be honest, given her physical parameters, if it's self defense in this hostile world she needs, she should exercise common sense and 2A.
one of the early master of 心意 named 戴龙邦 wrote to the town mayor that the peasant militia only have three months of training a year, so his goal is to teach them enough to fight the local bandit within three month, which come to famous rumour of "deadly" 老三拳. However, I recently discovered in an old 心意 manuscript that firearm is part of the Kung Fu curriculum
2 things: 1) Size does matter, especially if the opponent on the same skill level or at least know what they doing. 2) Even with correct technique, experience and correct training even more important. I train BJJ occasionally, know exactly how to apply an RNC, but even then rarely successfully execute it due to my inexperience, especially again a resisting opponent.
I have always felt woman's self-defense is taught wrong in martial arts schools. Considering men are naturally stronger and more coordinated than woman, I think weapons training should be the primary focus to lower the playing field. This should consist of situational awareness training and learning to use tools that are legal in one's state such as pepper spray, a knife, and a handgun. The weapons training should be scenario based. Women should learn martial arts, but not as their primary method of self-defense.
Yep. I have an acquaintance that does Kali and she always keeps a blade on her. She knows in emergencies, her 5’3 frame isnt going to be too much use hand to hand, so she has a force multiplier that she is very trained to use.
In her defense, she didn't have her hooks in. Things would be a little different if she had hooks. But her RNC wasn't very good, so he would get out anyway.
Well the point is that she has only been training for 10 weeks and already things she can choke out someone twice her size. She didnt have her hooks in because she is a rookie which is to be excepted, but she clearly is at a dojo that is not doing a good job at instilling in her how the reality of her skill level or the dangers of fighting someone twice your size. Clearly there filling her head with nonsense and fluffing her ego so she can spend more money at their gym
She didn't really even try to collapse any space between her and the back of his head or pull her choking arm closer to her to get any pressure on his neck. What she was doing was closest to a palm to palm RNC, but she wasn't getting any leverage at all from the non-choking arm. Also seemed like she was more trying to pinch her arm together with her elbow pointing directly forward, this isn't going to get pressure across the throat. I don't think hooks were going to help her if she had no idea what to do around the neck
Effective women's self defense: get married. You've acquired a far more physically competent person who lives and travels with you and views your physical safety as a primary goal.
If we are gonna be snarky making yourself dependent on a "far morr physically competent" person and basically locking yourself in with them in a secluded space is actually really bad self defence advice
What I've seen work is that you need to teach clever sweeps, and slips so you can disengage. Throwing someone is asking a lot, but tripping them isn't, and even if you both fall over, you can immediately get up and spring out of there.
Generally speaking, experienced grapplers will just keep the RNC on even during a fall or slam. Frankly, it would be very difficult if you let someone sink the choke in before you even begin defending.
To be fair the other man asked for a demonstration of a technique from her, and the man didn't let her. She probably had no expectation that he was going to resist. But it was still funny. Nm I watched the video 😂
those are excuses for this pathetic technique krav maga is absolute trash just learn the fundementals like kick boxing muay thai wrestling jiu jitsu and u will be good at fighting
She definitely has spirit and the way she climbed on top of that guy instead of just giving up does illustrate some decent aggression and desire to learn more. You could argue it's not even really her fault. Her coaches or teacher or Sensei or whoever never really showed her that she's not ready for a big dude yet. When I first started training, karate, my teachers would purposely have larger adults, resist against what we were doing, and make sure it was very clear that we had work to do still. I don't think we should fault a woman for trying to learn martial arts and maybe just going to the wrong school with the wrong training environment. We should fault the training environment and the training culture that sold her half truths.
You see the "teaching moments" a lot from people who are put on the spot and might not know something, or even from people your training with and you start to beat them in a row or in light sparring and their only way out is to try to "teach you something"
10 weeks of class and she has her hand on his shoulder like she's asking for a piggy back ride lol... dont you learn how just rolling w ur friends naturally?? why is she paying her instructors
I don't like the term "false confidence" because it's claiming that they're bluffing than anything. Most people aren't bluffing when they claim on learn Martial Arts, i think the right word is over-confidence because they think they know much than they know themselves.
I don’t know what she can do, good instruction is hard to find for self defence, Krav Maga is a catch all term, so you can’t just assume her training would be compliant. Can a small women throw a non compliant large man, absolutely, but really is that what you need to do for self defence. I can look at the small women in our Ninjutsu class as a reference point and the truth would be out of the four of them only the instructors daughter has the skills necessary to reliably self defend, the apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree and she has probably trained since learning to walk, the others have potential but it will take decades of training.
Three brothers, us sitting down watching this and hearing her words. All three of us rolled our eyes and shouted "STOP THE CAP." You're right. She looked like a spoiled brat kid and she can't have her way this time because this isn't a drill, it's for real but the guy is being gentle with her or she be done, finished. Krav Maga fo 10 weeks, throwing big guys," lol. Delusional.
Hard disagree that it's the styles or the coaches fault. At 10 weeks in people will be delusional, no matter how much sparring you introduce or how many times you warn them to be humble. That's just how a noob brain works. If you smash them in training, they'll just rationalize it as "yes, but against an untrained guy..." For most people, it takes at least a year or two in martial arts to even start accepting the truth
There's no such thing as 'Krav Maga'. It's a chimera. It tries to be a shortcut for striking, takedowns and grappling. But at the end of the day there's no shortcut. You have to be training a) a striking system (e.g., Muay Thai, boxing); b) a grappling system (e.g., BJJ) ; and, c) a takedown system (e.g., judo, wrestling). Once that realization is made "Krav Maga" becomes irrelevant
As soon as she said 10 weeks, I knew where this was going. She reminds me of what I have seen repeatedly at Martial Arts schools. She is an attractive woman of a specific racial demographic and is probably favored and catered to by her teachers. This is something I comment on repeatedly on UA-cam and martial arts videos. Martial arts schools are catering to specific demographics and neglecting willing, capable, and experienced students based on demographics. It's not just the students who are delusional. The teachers are also delusional for thinking they can just pick whoever they want, despite ability and experience, and turn them into capable martial artist in a short time span. Not only will the student be misled, but they will also be selected to teach others in the future. I recently saw this at a Tai Chi school here in Atlanta. The instructor selected an inexperienced 60 year old plus woman, inexperienced 19 year old, and a couple of others to be future instructors. I call these misled future instructors "record keepers." I call them that because they will know a lot about the art and its details, but they aren't capable of implementing it. Therefore, they are just keeping the record of the art. This reminds me of the woman on UA-cam who almost got a black belt in 90 days..
Things like this are exactly why I stopped teaching "women`s self-defense seminars". These classes only give women a false sense of empowerment. It takes years of serious dedicated training to achieve any level of proficiency by anyone who is smaller and weaker than the larger attacker they will likely face.
His name is Brian. I'm confused by what she was even trying to do. Like, that wasn't a rear-naked choke which she claimed it was. I can't say that's any choke I've ever seen to be honest. Thanks Jerry, I kept seeing videos on this but didn't bother clicking on them.
Standing Submissions are a controversial topic,many says that cannot be achieved unless huge size and skill difference. I would love a striking format that allows them to see if true. Something like old Shootboxing. Frankly i would start with Dirty Boxing but kickboxing is okay. Making clinches no time limit,and you can finish a sub falling on the ground,but if broken grip stand up.
Truly cringe moment. The cheerleader like total " barbie" crowd ( bon bon's another example) will always embarrass a martial style no matter how good it really is.
There was a woman around her size at the gym i trained at, and honestly i had to be really really careful not to seriously injure her ever time we rolled. Just grabbing the wrist normally felt like it was going to crack. Me being 6'2" and 90kg. Someone that small realistically needs a weapon to even the odds in self defence. Almost any situation at her size she could honestly say she was in fear for her life and needed to escalate.
las unicas personas que piensan que el tamaño no importa en el combate nunca an combatido en su vida, el tamaño se vence con habilidad y años en el gym practicando tecnicas y fortaleza fisica
I wanna know why the dude that’s remote laughed, seen him in some other “macho” videos and that dude can not fist fight whatsoever. No reason to make fun of someone who is at leather trying to dk something, even though KM is bs lol
Tell me more about that dude! Who is he? Ive only followed the whatever podcast back in the day because one of my former guests would always talk about it. Havent really kept up since last time he shared a post.
Oh! Wow! Geez. That whole section of youtube I will stay away from. Thanks for the heads up. I have friends who have fallen into that and they get unbearable.
The podcast knows its format. Definitely not for us martial artists, but lots of people really like that type of stuff. Definitely not healthy to listen to that podcast too much especially considering some of the details other viewers were telling me.
90 lbs woman vs 200 lbs. He as much as breathes on her and its over. If he wanted he could put her in the hospital 2 seconds after she applied her choke.
She’s a little girl man. What do you expect??? This is hilarious 😂 I’m 6’3” tall and 260. What do you think a guy like me would do??? 😂😂😂 This is hilarious BTW, I bench press 320 lbs 4 sets of 12 reps.
My Krav Maga story from last year: this neighbor who trained KM insisted he could get out of a standing RNC by some krav maga twisting technique. He insisted I put him into a standing RNC. I didn't even want to do it because I was in chess mode. Anyways, he asked me again, and I humored him. I didn't even apply a tight RNC, but I applied the basics, and his twisting technique didn't work. He then moved the goalpost and told me I was doing it too well. It only works if I only had one hand choking him. But he clearly told me initially that his technique worked against people who train in BJJ. Granted, I haven't trained BJJ for a long time, so I doubt his technique would have worked on anyone. And this is not a criticism on him per se, because we've all fallen for faulty techniques and faulty teachers. Belief is a strong thing and sometimes we just want something quick that can work. Life gives us enough lemons, so to speak, so we all wish something could be that magic fruit punch that gives us all the nourishment we need. But much like good lemonade takes time to make, many things in life take time to do. I have to remind some of my friends this, even friends who have appeared on this channel. They might not fall for martial arts bullshido, but they'll fall for its equivalent in the financial world or education-wise. How do we think more logically and examine our fundamental principles? I don't have the answer. I can only say I'm constantly examining my own pathways. Looking forward to your comments!
As the Amazing Randi would often say, "You too can be fooled." We all have blind spots, particularly when we're stressed out, depressed, sleep deprived, sick, etc. which is why we should have a great deal of sympathy for the victims of scams in any of their forms. You might find a lot to like the somewhat defunct world of organized skepticism. I think there has long been a vacuum in the world of martial arts skepticism, which has a lot of low hanging fruit, but you can sort of pick your favorite subject. Give Skeptoid a shot.
It's amazing how many of these styles produce some strange form of anti-jiujitsu. Years ago I dropped by a local wing chun school just out of curiosity and watched the class. The instructor chatted with me afterwards and grappling came up, probably my fault since that's how I conceptualize martial arts, and he went on to explain to me how wing chun had a superior grappling and groundfighting system to jiujitsu, and that unlike BJJ, his groundfighting system could take on multiple opponents at once or something like that. I just politely nodded along. TMA guys seem to really obsess over BJJ and boxing specifically for some reason.
@@elenchus Some bullshidos claim to be the superior kind of martial arts, but in some scenario I don't fully understand - in a ring/cage fight, there are rules that render said bullshido obsolete or just ineffective, and in a street fight...well, you know how these go.
That’s hilarious
I know what technique you're talking about. It's a typical Krav Maga choke escape. It actually works against untrained individuals, but it won't do anything if the person knows BJJ.
The moment she said "I've been training for 10 weeks", I knew exactly how the rest of the clip was gonna turn out
yeah i did around 7 years of kickboxing and every 1-2 months i would feel my fighting evolves and gets better (which includes a decent amount of hard sparring as well). not sure what she expected to happen with like 2,5 months 😂
This is one of the great benefits of combat sports that isn't discussed enough. One of the most valuable things you get out of a style like jiujitsu (for instance) is just how much you suck and how helpless you are. I'm being a broken record here, but I particularly like BJJ for this because it's so soul crushing when you get under side control for the first time and you're just useless, but if you got to any sort of semi-serious sparring in boxing, Muay Thai, etc. you'd get a similar education. Even if you quit after a few months, you at least understand the depth of your suck and how vulnerable you are so you can make some more educated decisions to avoid confrontation and violence.
I won't attack krav maga universally here (although I'm no fan, admittedly), but it appears that her krav maga school specifically has made her more vulnerable than before she began training by instilling a false confidence in her.
@@elenchus as a woman, I completely agree. I had an inflated ego for the first couple years of bjj and then realized that they were taking it easy on me because I sucked. Now that I’ve been training longer, and get my ass kicked for real, I know that I have no real chance against an attacker irl. In 2015, I could’ve gotten myself into a lot of trouble by not knowing reality. Size matters (in fighting)
yes i did bjj for couple months and often still think back to this years later. It's crazy how easily you can be oppressed even if you're a relatively strong guy. Now I try to avoid any altercations knowing how we are not as strong as we think.
@@beetastik8219 Size definitely matters, but if you've been training jiujitsu diligently for 10ish years at this point, I imagine you're pretty formidable nonetheless. There are definitely tough women out there, despite a size/strength disparity. Of course, that's worth remembering for we men as well. I'm only 5'11, which is quite short in martial arts circles and of mediocre build, so there's definitely a lot of guys much larger and stronger than me too.
happy new year brother!
False confidence can get you killed.
I trained in a practical martial art called Taekmaiwallet.
I think we've all done some of that. Very few people just stumble on the correct training or the correct coach instantly.
That's the cheat code to the ultimate self-defense championship
@ Yes, the technique is carried out as follows: Nod your head up and down. Raise your left and right hands to show the assailant you are unarmed. Check pockets A and B. Select your wallet, and start giving it to the assailant.
There is a deadly technique called Double Dinosaur Dragon Death Breath. It can clear out a subway car in minutes. Only a few have learned it, and even fewer have mastered it.
😂
Saved me from more second hand embarrassment by not showing the rest of the clip. You're a hero lmao
The rest of the clip was completely unwatchable. I cringed so hard I couldn’t finish it. Maybe the non martial arts viewers might enjoy that but i think for our martial arts enjoyment this speaks for itself 😝😝
@FightCommentary Yoo fr this the kinda cringe that can damage a practitioners spirit 😂😂 You the mvp for sparing your fans 👏🏿 🙌🏿
Recognizing patterns is just a step. Its one of the first steps in learning a new skill. She is showing why it is detrimental to allow others to think they are doing better than they really are. They build that false sense of security and wind up getting themselves into a bad situation because of their overconfidence
Yep. That's another thing. Great point! She has been allowed to think she's doing better than she is. If she were doing compliance drills, they need to tell her, "This isn't actually throwing a 180 lb man." An honest martial arts school shouldn't go like, "GREAT JOB! You go girl! Now you can throw any man under 200 lbs."
Women have been told all their lives how capable they are, how they are better in many ways than men...
@@FightCommentary Phew, I'm safe. I weigh 201.
the worst part of this false confidence is that running is often the best self defense... even trained fighters, knowing the risk of violence, would prefer to de escalate or remove from a situation.
Watch ultimate self defend championship tournament. They will show you quickly running is not always work out. You'll never know if the attacker is stronger, faster than you, and if they have multiple people waiting for you around the block, you are fked. Not to mentioned you can trip, fumble while panic running. We laugh when this happen in horror movie and said this is is unrealistic, but long behold, it could happen in real life.
@@mr.q337One its talking generally. Two, lets say the person is a better fighter or stronger you lose anyway so why would you not run away and take ur chances rather then stay their and be beat. Three, since you want to give examples how about i give one. Lets say the opponent has a knife but why would i ever run away right obviously when there might be someone pointing a nuclear warhead around the corner. Why would i ever take my chances rather than fighting a knife.
@@J0k3rz Fair point, I'm not disagree with you. Just point out the potential risk.
@@dc0he11 Could say leave the situation rather than running. Running when someone is chasing you depends on your speed and surroundings. Leaving when someone has an ego issue and just saying "my bad it's my fault I'm so sorry" will work most of the time and then the threat is simply gone.
I applaud a woman taking any kind of self defence class but with it you must be humble & realistic. This woman's cocky arrogance was astounding.
I used to take Krav-Maga in my early 30s and used to get in periodic "street" fights when I was young and dumb. I have used Krav in an encounter to defend myself successfully (judo takedown) against a slightly larger untrained opponent but have also been completely detroyed in a similar situation against an active wrestler.
In my opinion, a good Krav-Maga program is better than nothing but not as good as enduring the rigors of learning a combat sport.
As a fitness enthusiast, combat sports hobbyist, and self defense guy my advice to a woman would be
1. Be in shape
2. obtain a CC permit and firearms training
3. GET a dog like a German Shepard
4. Move to a lower crime area
5. Make sure u date/marry a MAN
10 weeks of Krav, under 5 feet tall, and 100 lbs. I’ll say one good thing. She clearly has the fighting spirit but her ego and lack of awareness will get her in trouble if she doesn’t change soon. Hopefully, this was a humbling moment for her.
I’ve taught Krav before and have always told my students, especially small women, that certain techniques just aren’t going to be best FOR THEM. Not all techniques make sense for everyone to attempt in a real scenario, especially with a significant size disadvantage. I think a good instructor should be honest about that and drill that into their students to prevent false senses of security.
Run, if you can’t then de-escalate, and if you have to fight then exploit the most vulnerable available targets on your assailant until you can ESCAPE. That’s the point of self-defense training.
Also, in my school we spar a lot. If your school doesn’t, leave. We also must have basic BJJ proficiency (at least a blue belt) to test for our black belt in Krav.
Every school has different standards. Always do your research before making the commitment.
Yeah, the fact the every school is different is why a lot of mcdojos are able to prosper. I wish that all martial arts gyms/ dojos were standardizes and forced to adhere to stricter criteria. Maybe like a better business bureau for martial arts.
There is a reason for weapons training. Size matters. Seriously if you what learn to fight you must spar. I believe everyone when they start martial arts believes they are better then they really are. I believe everyone needs to be humbled.
Bjj is not self-defense its wrestling with rules.
The majority of the problem is schools need healthy students. So they don't spar you need a old gym or friends to train with guys that won't let you get a big head. But it gets hard the older you get. Training partners are few and far between.
Always a pleasure jerry
It's better to do almost anything else than to learn 'self-defense' methods in 'self-defense' dojos (or whatever it's called). I'm not saying that's the case in this video (it might be just for the laughs, idk), but I know people who were killed-hit in the head and stabbed-because they were overconfident in their own 'self-defense abilities'. Both of them were specifically studying 'self-defense'. This is prevalent in certain places that hyperfocus on teaching dirty techniques and the like, while completely disregarding other important aspects of martial arts.
Oh wow! That's crazy about the people you knew who tried self defense techniques. Were they living in a dangerous area?
@@FightCommentary They lived in residential areas here in Brazil. I can't say it's not dangerous, though. They were students at those weird 'self-defense' McDojos, you know? They feel more like a cult or a brand than anything related to a martial art. I'm not familiar with Krav Maga but that chick reminded me of those guys.
@@croay Oh man! That makes sense. Have you seen BJJ used in Brazil in street fights?
I remember one of Ramsey Dewey’s videos - he said you want to defend yourself, have friends with you and weapons
@@FightCommentary There was a famous case here in Brazil recently. Look for "lutadora de jiujitsu imobiliza ladrao". A woman submiting a real thief. There are a lot of similar cases in Brazil. I think most of them are real, yes, but those aren't 100lbs women. More like 150lbs, strong and athletic women that practices BJJ
The difference between her and real bullshido is that the only thing she has on the line is her ego and ultimately her safety if she got into trouble by thinking she was more capable than she is in a real life situation. I hope this wasnt too discouraging for her and she keeps trying to learn how to protect herself.
Yep! Hope her school sees the video too and makes changes in their instruction.
I took a year and a half of Krav Maga at one location and then had to quit because I lost my job and needed to save money. I took six months at another location but had to quit because a problem at my new job forced me to work too many hours and be on the road. I'm no expert in Krav Maga or anything else, but I have a few experiences.
First, I never learned to put someone in a rear-naked choke. All of my instructors had the attitude that if I were in a position to get behind someone that way, I could push the person forward, gain distance, and hope that the attacker would not want to continue the attack. If the attacker did try to continue the attack, I would try to strike to disable the attacker and then gain more distance. I realize that every class is handled differently, but I'm a bit surprised that her instructors were trying to teach her a rear-naked choke in the first ten weeks of training.
Secondly, I was often paired with women in exercises. I am 5'11" tall. I weighed anywhere between 270 and 285 pounds when I was taking Krav Maga. One of my favorite training partners was 6'2" tall and weighed 350 pounds. When he wasn't there, I sometimes had a problem finding a partner my own size. After everyone paired up with someone of a similar size, I was left training with a woman. I would be compliant for quite a few repetitions until she started getting better. Then, I would add resistance. In some cases, I could be fully resistant and she could use the technique. In other cases, I had to stop resisting at some point.
At times, instructors would make the female students practice on me. The idea was that they couldn't practice against another woman and pretend that they had mastered the technique. They'd sometimes have to show that they could use the technique against a guy who weighed less but was more athletic. Other times, they had to show that they could "throw the fat guy" to show that they knew the technique.
One young lady was fourteen years old and probably weighed 100 pounds. Her father was an instructor (maybe the owner) at the dojo although he taught Tae Kwon Do and not Krav Maga. She had plenty of experience. When we were doing defense against a mounted choke, a woman in her thirties wanted to try throwing the fat guy. She needed a few attempts, but she could eventually escape even though I was offering some resistance. The instructor then wanted the fourteen-year-old to throw the fat guy. Admittedly, I was very slow putting my weight on her. When I applied the choke, she started the defense. She was so fast that I was on my back before I realized that she had moved. I just remember being on my back shouting, "Great move!" She drove an elbow into my chest and was on her feet before I could have caught her with my legs.
Later, we were going gun drills with those rubber guns. I ended up paired with the teenaged girl again because again, none of the guys was nearly as heavy as I was. As we started practicing the techniques, I was moderately compliant. As she felt ready, I added resistance. I think she was even telling me how much resistance to give. At full resistance, she made her move on the gun and bent that rubber gun 180 degrees. I really don't know whether I could have maintained my grip if the gun had been real. Maybe I could have kept her from moving the gun. I think I was using only a one-handed grip. She probably could have twisted a real gun out of my hand. With that training gun, the gun bent under the force of her defense.
Clearly, the girl in this video didn't know what she was doing. I don't automatically assume that every small woman won't be able to offer effective defense against an attacker. I would still try to help if I saw someone attacking a woman, but I'm aware that maybe she could handle the situation on her own. In that case, my only job would be watching her back against surprise attacks from a thug's buddies.
4’10 is built for judo hip throws
4'10" of fury. Bilbo Baggins look out.
She can’t even defeat my pinkys. And i’m just a McDonalds blackbelt 🤣
Him: nah u too little my daughter 🤣
I think she was trying to describe how to apply a Gable grip, which is sometimes used in a rear naked choke, but she couldn't even get that part right.
If I were running a woman’s self defense course, it would consist of basic highschool/college style wrestling as a base. The problem I see is that these women’s self defense classes is that they Mickey Mouse a lot of random techniques rather than consistent fundamentals and tactics. Without consistency, you will not learn a thing.
At her size, if she really wants to be able to protect herself she should do 3 things; learn how to wrestle, learn some BJJ submissions and mount escapes, and lift weights for general strength training, those 3 things outside of having some kind of weapon could save her life in a real confrontation.
In early BJJ times I sparred as a whitebelt with women who were blue or violet belt and had years of experience in sparring. I didn't attacked them as I used to do with male opponents, just resisted their attacks and didn't let them to take over. The women could only do any technique if I let them. Against an agressive male they have very poor bed.
I don't think not knowing names is an issue. I could hang out for weeks with people without knowing their name without ever disrespecting or ignoring them. I would just lack their names
Two things to learn here: 1. size matters 2. one arm RNC don't work
It's not easy to be 4'10. She should be encouraged to continue martial arts and learn more, even though it was a little funny.
First, thanks. I’ve seen videos of this popping up in my feed for a while now and hadn’t watched them. This was short and showed all we really needed to see.
What should she realistically do if she lives somewhere outside the USA and can’t carry a gun? Well I always tell small people they’re starting at a serious disadvantage already, but I’d suggest she keep seriously training striking and grappling for the long term but I’d insist that she learn to use and carry an edged weapon at all times. Someone that small already gives up so much that they need an equalizer to make up for it.
I just kept saying "oh no stop" the whole time. She recited the sales pitch to them in order to explain what it was.
Krav Maga = really bad MMA…
Who the hell taught her how to apply a rnc??
typical krav maga bullsheedo
At 1:17:55 You can see she saying something like "I haven't learned that yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot".
@@cesarcrash the funny thing is that despite that she was trying to make it look like she was competent by "teaching" how your should grip your hands
@@williegreen5543 As in her mind she was the authority in self defense in the room. She could say anything. Did you see the continuation of this? She was claiming she tought the guy a lession, she said she gave him a first free Krav Maga lession, that she didn't use full force and could do much more if they didn't stop her...
@@cesarcrash yeah, the delusional is so strong, and the only reason I can see for this is, 1) she is already pretty dumb 2) he trainer have got to be feeding into this delusional thinking so that they can keep her as a paying member.
Well, they all knock me down at ease...
Now seriously, the funniest part was yet to come. She believed she taught him a lesson, said she didn't use full force and could do much more if they didn't stop her!
She did? Thats crazy! I guess i stopped the video analysis too soon!
Check at least to the whole champagne pop chapter.
The blame should be on the instructor for over selling. No martial art is going to give a 100 lb woman a reliable advantage over a man of his size. Martial arts training might give her a chance of getting lucky by surprising an attacker, but it isn’t going to turn her into a Marvel character or bend the laws of physics.
She should absolutely be learning to defend herself, but she should also be made aware of just how much skill and luck it will take her to defeat someone twice her size.
Judo
@ I agree Judo can help a smaller opponent but it still would not put this girl on even footing with a man his size.
She might get lucky, but 9 times out of 10 he would be able to dominate her.
Judo is wonderful but it is not magic.
@@koraegi Bro how he she gonna sweep or flip him if she can even get arms around him to or generate enough of a push to off balance him. also what judo gonna do to when she gets a haymaker from someone 100 pounds heavier with a 12 in reach advantage 🤣 im not trying to be rude its just that there are a lot more variables that a single martial art cannot even come close to equalizing.
False confidence after learning some martial arts basics can be quite dangerous.
Short story my dad told me from when he was enlisted in the Navy in the early 50s: He and some shipmates were on a brief shore leave and they were going to a local watering hole. My dad had had a few weeks of lessons in Judo at the time, as he told it himself "I barley learned how to take a proper fall, but in my mind I was a bad ass." As you can imagine that didn't go well when this group acted liked they owned the place, they weren't looking for any excuse to start a fight, but if it happened they'd be OK with it. Well didn't take long for the locals to get rowdy and pissed off at the sailors, especially after one of them kept hitting on a girl that was clearly not interested.
Apparently one the locals threw the first punch, but my dad isn't sure on that detail, everything else he remembers is being able to duck under the punches of one guy and throw another over a table with a hip toss. He was feeling quite confident at that time until he saw a large shadow behind him. Now every time my dad tells the story the guy that stepped up behind gets bigger, but it was a big guy standing behind him and as my dad turned around he got picked up by this guy (apparently with one hand) and tossed over a table in to a corner where he then got hit over the head with a chair by another guy when he was trying to get up and he doesn't remember much after that other than somehow the MP got involved breaking up the fight.
An Aikido sensei told us, "If someone's bigger than you there's no such thing as a fair fight." If I'm not mistaken, Krav Maga emphasizes doing whatever you have to do to survive a violent situation. If someone her size absolutely has to fight someone larger she might want to look for a good improvised weapon or keep a collapsible combat knife on her (Recon 1). I am by no means an expert mind you
I absolutely approve it if she got into whatever martial art for discipline, inner peace, fitness and socializing. But be honest, given her physical parameters, if it's self defense in this hostile world she needs, she should exercise common sense and 2A.
one of the early master of 心意 named 戴龙邦 wrote to the town mayor that the peasant militia only have three months of training a year, so his goal is to teach them enough to fight the local bandit within three month, which come to famous rumour of "deadly" 老三拳. However, I recently discovered in an old 心意 manuscript that firearm is part of the Kung Fu curriculum
LMFAO she jumped on him like an annoying moth when we was starting to stand up.
2 things:
1) Size does matter, especially if the opponent on the same skill level or at least know what they doing.
2) Even with correct technique, experience and correct training even more important. I train BJJ occasionally, know exactly how to apply an RNC, but even then rarely successfully execute it due to my inexperience, especially again a resisting opponent.
"I'm 4ft 9, no, I'm 4ft 10". It really doesn't matter 😂
I encourage her to continue her journey
I saw this and and laughed my ass off. It is both Dunning-Kroger and going to a Bullshido gym.
I have always felt woman's self-defense is taught wrong in martial arts schools. Considering men are naturally stronger and more coordinated than woman, I think weapons training should be the primary focus to lower the playing field. This should consist of situational awareness training and learning to use tools that are legal in one's state such as pepper spray, a knife, and a handgun. The weapons training should be scenario based. Women should learn martial arts, but not as their primary method of self-defense.
Yep. I have an acquaintance that does Kali and she always keeps a blade on her. She knows in emergencies, her 5’3 frame isnt going to be too much use hand to hand, so she has a force multiplier that she is very trained to use.
In her defense, she didn't have her hooks in. Things would be a little different if she had hooks. But her RNC wasn't very good, so he would get out anyway.
Well the point is that she has only been training for 10 weeks and already things she can choke out someone twice her size. She didnt have her hooks in because she is a rookie which is to be excepted, but she clearly is at a dojo that is not doing a good job at instilling in her how the reality of her skill level or the dangers of fighting someone twice your size. Clearly there filling her head with nonsense and fluffing her ego so she can spend more money at their gym
She didn't really even try to collapse any space between her and the back of his head or pull her choking arm closer to her to get any pressure on his neck. What she was doing was closest to a palm to palm RNC, but she wasn't getting any leverage at all from the non-choking arm. Also seemed like she was more trying to pinch her arm together with her elbow pointing directly forward, this isn't going to get pressure across the throat. I don't think hooks were going to help her if she had no idea what to do around the neck
Effective women's self defense: get married.
You've acquired a far more physically competent person who lives and travels with you and views your physical safety as a primary goal.
If we are gonna be snarky making yourself dependent on a "far morr physically competent" person and basically locking yourself in with them in a secluded space is actually really bad self defence advice
👍
What I've seen work is that you need to teach clever sweeps, and slips so you can disengage. Throwing someone is asking a lot, but tripping them isn't, and even if you both fall over, you can immediately get up and spring out of there.
Generally speaking, experienced grapplers will just keep the RNC on even during a fall or slam. Frankly, it would be very difficult if you let someone sink the choke in before you even begin defending.
To be fair the other man asked for a demonstration of a technique from her, and the man didn't let her. She probably had no expectation that he was going to resist. But it was still funny.
Nm I watched the video 😂
When speaking about Krav Maga, always need to reference with Ramsey Dewey and Captain Krav Maga
I wonder how Captain Krav Maga is doing!
Size always matters unless it is 'Biu Biu' time.
What's Biu Biu?
@ G U N’s sound
those are excuses for this pathetic technique krav maga is absolute trash just learn the fundementals like kick boxing muay thai wrestling jiu jitsu and u will be good at fighting
@@PazCristo Eric Cartman: It doesn't go "biu biu", it goes "BANG BANG BANG!"
doesn't America have proportional self defense laws?
She definitely has spirit and the way she climbed on top of that guy instead of just giving up does illustrate some decent aggression and desire to learn more. You could argue it's not even really her fault.
Her coaches or teacher or Sensei or whoever never really showed her that she's not ready for a big dude yet. When I first started training, karate, my teachers would purposely have larger adults, resist against what we were doing, and make sure it was very clear that we had work to do still.
I don't think we should fault a woman for trying to learn martial arts and maybe just going to the wrong school with the wrong training environment. We should fault the training environment and the training culture that sold her half truths.
You see the "teaching moments" a lot from people who are put on the spot and might not know something, or even from people your training with and you start to beat them in a row or in light sparring and their only way out is to try to "teach you something"
10 weeks of class and she has her hand on his shoulder like she's asking for a piggy back ride lol... dont you learn how just rolling w ur friends naturally?? why is she paying her instructors
Yeah, that was so cringe
I don't like the term "false confidence" because it's claiming that they're bluffing than anything. Most people aren't bluffing when they claim on learn Martial Arts, i think the right word is over-confidence because they think they know much than they know themselves.
I don’t know what she can do, good instruction is hard to find for self defence, Krav Maga is a catch all term, so you can’t just assume her training would be compliant. Can a small women throw a non compliant large man, absolutely, but really is that what you need to do for self defence. I can look at the small women in our Ninjutsu class as a reference point and the truth would be out of the four of them only the instructors daughter has the skills necessary to reliably self defend, the apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree and she has probably trained since learning to walk, the others have potential but it will take decades of training.
Could you send me some ninjutsu footage. I would love to see!
@ I did and the comment diappeared, maybe it was the links embedded in my comment, I will try a message on insta.
Is that the top of a human head just barely in camera in the lower right of Jerry’s video? 😳
Three brothers, us sitting down watching this and hearing her words. All three of us rolled our eyes and shouted "STOP THE CAP." You're right. She looked like a spoiled brat kid and she can't have her way this time because this isn't a drill, it's for real but the guy is being gentle with her or she be done, finished. Krav Maga fo 10 weeks, throwing big guys," lol. Delusional.
Hard disagree that it's the styles or the coaches fault. At 10 weeks in people will be delusional, no matter how much sparring you introduce or how many times you warn them to be humble. That's just how a noob brain works. If you smash them in training, they'll just rationalize it as "yes, but against an untrained guy..." For most people, it takes at least a year or two in martial arts to even start accepting the truth
There's no such thing as 'Krav Maga'. It's a chimera. It tries to be a shortcut for striking, takedowns and grappling. But at the end of the day there's no shortcut. You have to be training a) a striking system (e.g., Muay Thai, boxing); b) a grappling system (e.g., BJJ) ; and, c) a takedown system (e.g., judo, wrestling). Once that realization is made "Krav Maga" becomes irrelevant
Great analysis!
@@FightCommentarywow, such an honor. Thank you 🙏🏼
As soon as she said 10 weeks, I knew where this was going. She reminds me of what I have seen repeatedly at Martial Arts schools. She is an attractive woman of a specific racial demographic and is probably favored and catered to by her teachers. This is something I comment on repeatedly on UA-cam and martial arts videos. Martial arts schools are catering to specific demographics and neglecting willing, capable, and experienced students based on demographics. It's not just the students who are delusional. The teachers are also delusional for thinking they can just pick whoever they want, despite ability and experience, and turn them into capable martial artist in a short time span. Not only will the student be misled, but they will also be selected to teach others in the future. I recently saw this at a Tai Chi school here in Atlanta. The instructor selected an inexperienced 60 year old plus woman, inexperienced 19 year old, and a couple of others to be future instructors. I call these misled future instructors "record keepers." I call them that because they will know a lot about the art and its details, but they aren't capable of implementing it. Therefore, they are just keeping the record of the art. This reminds me of the woman on UA-cam who almost got a black belt in 90 days..
Very interesting observations!
attractive?
the longer I train, the more I realise I really don't know shit
she is an example of how ignorance is bliss
Things like this are exactly why I stopped teaching "women`s self-defense seminars". These classes only give women a false sense of empowerment. It takes years of serious dedicated training to achieve any level of proficiency by anyone who is smaller and weaker than the larger attacker they will likely face.
His name is Brian.
I'm confused by what she was even trying to do. Like, that wasn't a rear-naked choke which she claimed it was. I can't say that's any choke I've ever seen to be honest.
Thanks Jerry, I kept seeing videos on this but didn't bother clicking on them.
Standing Submissions are a controversial topic,many says that cannot be achieved unless huge size and skill difference. I would love a striking format that allows them to see if true. Something like old Shootboxing.
Frankly i would start with Dirty Boxing but kickboxing is okay. Making clinches no time limit,and you can finish a sub falling on the ground,but if broken grip stand up.
She's doing compliant drills. She's new to the game but her ego won't take her far
Ooo… her “teacher” should close up shop if he can’t teach someone a proper RNC in 10 weeks.
Yeah, what type of grappling is she doing in Kraft maga? That’s the scary part of her training.
Pretty funny but I'm sure it's good for her bc she learned something about the technique application!
Truly cringe moment. The cheerleader like total " barbie" crowd ( bon bon's another example) will always embarrass a martial style no matter how good it really is.
My advice: she should become a master plumber or star attorney so she could hire a security guard.
Strength in numbers is usually a good technique 🤓
Krav Maga like all self-defense styles are in effective unless you are high level in a fighting/ martial art
Kraft Mcgrath!
"Krav maga"
*aight imma head out*
And the saddest thing is....she comes away from this thinking she did well.
That seems to be the case if you watch the entire sequence from the original. And that’s extra sad
She should take Judo. That was a joke choke hold
That was not a rear naked choke
There was a woman around her size at the gym i trained at, and honestly i had to be really really careful not to seriously injure her ever time we rolled. Just grabbing the wrist normally felt like it was going to crack. Me being 6'2" and 90kg. Someone that small realistically needs a weapon to even the odds in self defence. Almost any situation at her size she could honestly say she was in fear for her life and needed to escalate.
Same reason why in MMA their is weight class. Cause size matters doesn't matter if u do bjj mas or Krav Maga
It sounds like the dunning kruger effect.
What in the Peggy Sue?!
She has bjj 1 stripe white belt syndrome 😂
What did we just see?
Jujutsu will not make her win a fight against a bigger dude but it will make her a difficult target and that s good
Reminds me of 95% of BJJ cult nerds.
Oh scheisse, here it comes, Krav Maga being Krav Mid as almost always
Krav Mid 😂😂 Hilarious nickname!
las unicas personas que piensan que el tamaño no importa en el combate nunca an combatido en su vida, el tamaño se vence con habilidad y años en el gym practicando tecnicas y fortaleza fisica
She doesn't know how to choke, take back, lock her feet, anything... ugh... lol... maybe she;s a comedian and was just joking.
I wanna know why the dude that’s remote laughed, seen him in some other “macho” videos and that dude can not fist fight whatsoever. No reason to make fun of someone who is at leather trying to dk something, even though KM is bs lol
Tell me more about that dude! Who is he? Ive only followed the whatever podcast back in the day because one of my former guests would always talk about it. Havent really kept up since last time he shared a post.
@@FightCommentary that's why he does these podcasts degrading women, that's what he does and thinks he's all alpha and macho.
Oh! Wow! Geez. That whole section of youtube I will stay away from. Thanks for the heads up. I have friends who have fallen into that and they get unbearable.
@ agreed
Actually, it looked like 火车便当...😃
I dont get it. Please explain.
Yes.
Krav Magav is bullshido confirmed?
That is not a good choke.
God created men and Sam Colt made them equal
Who’s Sam Colt?
Oh! I get it now! Great historical reference!
but not against John Wick 🙂
She strangled the content out of an otherwise boring show.
The podcast knows its format. Definitely not for us martial artists, but lots of people really like that type of stuff. Definitely not healthy to listen to that podcast too much especially considering some of the details other viewers were telling me.
She needs a man to protect her. Nothing wrong with that!
90 lbs woman vs 200 lbs. He as much as breathes on her and its over. If he wanted he could put her in the hospital 2 seconds after she applied her choke.
He could literally just sit on her
She’s a little girl man. What do you expect??? This is hilarious 😂
I’m 6’3” tall and 260. What do you think a guy like me would do??? 😂😂😂
This is hilarious
BTW, I bench press 320 lbs 4 sets of 12 reps.
Why is the girl on the left wearing a pickelhaube?
