The Human Weapon

[Adonis]

Its just a show

[username8517]

I know, I just think the broad generalizations they throw out are silly

[Adonis]

I agree! I just enjoy the show for the history aspects, and some of the training methods.

I think that perhaps that comment was made in direction toward their style of competition. TKD and Karate have elbow strikes, but you don't see them done in TKD or Karate Competitions. I would guess that this is what they were getting at.

It appears that the Krav Maga episode is the last for now. Does anyone know when they will pick up again?

[Adonis]

Not sure! They have other episodes on the list. I am just not sure when they will be aired.

[bushido_man96]

Well, by taking a few weeks off, maybe I can get caught up.

The next episode will be on Marine combat training and should air next friday- I am interested to see if they include a lot of weapons training in this one.

[bushido_man96]

Cool. That sounds great. So not this Friday, but the next?

[NightOwl]

right, the 21st. I think that they might do some rifle work from the photos...but really, isn't marksmanship/learning to handle a gun a modern martial art? If you look at the old Jujitsu schools (ryus) weapons are just as big a part of the curriculum as unarmed fighting.
