Guys,
I've believe some of you guys are trained in martial arts, what are the martial arts are you guys trained in and recommendations. of course in line with this, a physical training course must start. i really think that physical conditioning is one of the most important factor in terms of survival be it in urban or in the woods. I've learnt taekwondo before but stopped at green tip when i was 14 hah! I'm lookin to learn krav maga soon! ;)

Cheers

I am learning Shaolin.
With that I am learning some pretty nasty and most definitely lethal weapons. At the moment I am learning the Kamas.

Once I achieve my black belt in Shaolin, I am going to learn both Aikido, and Krav Maga.

It is my opinion that brazilian jiujitsu is useless since most fights wind up with multiple opponents. Especially when your first opponent is getting his ass handed to him.

I kind of disagree with that, must fights go to the ground IMHO i think a ground game is very important.

I agree everyone should have a ground game, but why not finish it quickly, and while you are on your feet.
 
I have taken karate, kung fu, jiu-jitsu and muay Thai. 3 years of kung fu and I loved it (When we weren't dancing around and playing with sticks.) Best part of kung fu was learning more then just punches kicks and blocking. A lot of self defence was tied into it.

Jiu jitsu is great for ground fighting but as was said earlier not all go to the ground and in a fight against multiple people you wouldn't want it to.

Muay Thai is excellent for fighting someone standing up and brawling it out. It's also good because u learn how to properly use your knees and elbows..
 
I only know Gun Fu, but if I were to train in a martial art, it would definitely be Krav Maga

Seems so...lethal.

Muai Thai is great for close range fighting! The elbow is a superior weapon!

Nothing more satisfying than blinding some douche bag who desperately deserves it.
 
Ive taken tiger/dragon kung fu, and just down n out street fighting.
But id recommend Hungar, crazy teqnique.
Tbh, im one who doesnt give a **** in a fight, ill bite a person or even gouge an eye out if nessicary!
Imho, if you really wanna know how to fight, go and get into some.
Ive known 3rd degree black belts ive whooped the **** out of cuz they know what to do, yet lack the experience (not all mine you, or even most, but there are a few)
Ive also known people who know everything to do, but get cracked in the face one time and cry like a bitch.
In about anything, who would you rather have in your corner, one that knows what to do, or one thats done it?

I agree Hades..!! lol haha. But if it came down to it yes would be best like everyone else has commented and posted to have a ground game. Physical conditioning is a major key point to always keep in mind, top of the chart whenever you have down time, my areas of MMA include, BJJ Brazilian Ju jitsu, Muahi ty, kickboxing, boxing - and grappling. If i get ya down to the ground its all over, lol. But in a easy day, just aim and pull triger.:m4:

I agree..in the movies people stand up and "sock each other" in the face...but most fights I've ever seen wind up on the ground wrestling around.
 
self defense is great to know but i have yet to read that anyone is practicing CQC, all this talk about guns but no one is training on how to clear a house or a building? if we all have guns and anyone with gun knowledge they should know that you need to practice practice practice. You can incorporate your self defense techniques in your CQC training. But if you cant clear a house safely and secure it than you'll never get the chance to beat the crap out of someone . All preppers say get a gun so in post shtf what are the odds that someone will approach you and drop there gear and just go fist to cuffs with you? Know your weapon fundamentals and your TTP's for room clearing, securing a site and over ground movement.... IMHO
 
especially since the majority of the people from wat ive seen on this site are talking about bugging out, CQC fundamentals and TTP's are a must
 
well thats why you have a back up, and i dont know about you but my weapon equals my life i am going to take care of that weapon, And i understand that malfunctions happen ive seen it happen in combat. im not saying don't learn self defense what im saying is expand your tool box.
 
If SHTF happens what are the odds of you leaving your weapon more than arms length from you? Based on your avatar and your screen name i would assume you have military experience. were you every allowed to be away from your primary or secondary weapon when you were in a combat zone? and you have to figure the SHTF and we will be living in a massive combat zone and your support base will be extremely limited post shtf everyone will be suspicious
 
about the best training for CQB that my group has been able to replicate is training on room clearing and ambush drills (detection and trigger) using airsoft rifles. it's a lot of fun but nothing like having access to a shoot house with live fire which we don't have
