Heel hook hurts like a mother, but I've seen people with crazy pain tolerance take it. But yeah that's a good one.

Oh, yeah! Sorry. You don't have to yell.

Thanks Ninjanurse, and the throw while stepping on the foot will have devastating results. Yuk!

I'm curious, how much emphasis does Krav Maga put on Ukemi or falling and evasion. Do they have rolling, leaping and evasion exercises? Evasion is 70-80% of the fight.

Depends on what open. I like the bait and wait tactic myself if there is time for that. It's good to get a clue how someone fights before you really engage. Hammer blow to the bridge of the nose is always nice followed by a driving toe kick to the groin.

Well that depends on what fights you don't engage in I guess. I guess knowing what fights to fight can give that kind of record, but realistically no one is immune to a clinch and takedown.

DrunkenMonkey it just seems like your too damn close and playing a game to see who's faster. It just seems like you'd be way to vulnerable to a good grappler.

SevenStar you should look at San Soo a bit closer it's not like other Kung Fu's out there. It is a very straight forward and practical MA.

What is it going to take 10 years to see any results? Screw that dude learn something more practical if you're already doubting it.

You're not supposed to tell everyone how to counter it. So you think it's not painful. Also, do it while stepping on the foot furthest from the lock. HeeHee!

Yeah, you're moving the hips foreword and the legs are just keeping you from falling and that falling is generating a lot of the power. It's hitting with your whole body and one time.

Sure you will, but any good student trains twice as much outside of class.

It's a lock that locks up the shoulder and is very painful. It feels like your shoulder is going to rip out of the socket. It's done standing and you're kind of in back of them and to the side when you do it. It's kind of hard to explain with words.

So do expect Kung Fu to make you buff and fit? Go work out with weights, run and eat right. The Kung Fu is to teach you the art, it's not a fitness program. Like any athlete, they train and do weight training. So do you want to learn to fight or do you want to be fit? I don't think learning any Martial Art alone will give you both.

Musha Dori.

What makes something "authentic" is that they are claiming that it a Roman Gladiator's MA, but where's the historical proof. I'm not saying the techniques they are teaching don't work, but are they really Gladiator techniques? Probably not. So basically I'm questioning the historical validity not the validity of the techniques.

You like Kung Fu learn San Soo it easy and very effective and doesn't have all that philosophical garbage that just serves as therapy.

San Soo kicks *! I don't know what you people have heard, but it's very effective and fairly easy to learn.

Kung Fu San Soo, Ouch!

I think Mantis and San Soo are pretty eclectic MA's that not too many people know about.

The whole gun thing. It's a joke. Hahahahahaha!

OH NO! It's a mexican stand off.

O.K. you guys are bringing guns into the equation, that changes everything.

JerryLove forget Aikido and look at it root of Aikijutsu they handle multiple attackers much more realistically.

Very well put JerryLove.
