kamahlthedruid Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I saw a Systema guy on youtube easily parry a muay thai guy's roundhouse kick with one hand. If systema people's fighting abilities are real, then I would like to take systema at http://sandiegosystema.com/. I will begin training as soon as all my sprains heal. I will see my doctor soon and he will likely appoint a sports therapist for me. I thought good punches relied on structure, mass, and movement. Systema fighters don't seem to punch with proper form.

MasterPain Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I've watched some of them, and it varies from one teacher to the next. Some seem far-fetched, others look legit. My fists bleed death. -Akuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamahlthedruid Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 THe systema videos are for show? They look completely fake in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I haven't seen any of them, so I wouldn't know for sure. I've heard mixed reviews on them. It probably has more to do with finding the right Systema instructor. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
