Isreali fighting

[hub5326]

Very few present day Spec Ops guys have ever used hand to hand in combat! If we go back to the days in the jungle sure it happened but this is today, and if your using your hands you're fucked.... That being said if there is one lesson to learn from UFC, Pride, etc. it's that no one art is better, but the well rounded fighter will prevail. Take what you can from the art and have an open mind....

thats awesome Nir is your instructor,I met him at my college and took his edged weapons course, I wish I was closer to thornhill to take his course

I met a chick instructor for the Isr. military. I witnessed her spar some guys,mostly grapplers, and do very well

what are the preferred 'finishing'/submission moves in krav maga..

like do they prefer to choke rather than armbar.. do they prefer striking on the ground?

or what do YOU prefer to use..

thanks

I wouldnt really say there is anything favoured over the other in krav,it depends on the situation and how the fight it going. personally I prefer a choke,but I also bounce and know how effective that is,so Im biased

cool thanks oak!

in street situations i prefer chokes as well.. no perm damage and if done right it shows the 'law' your were in control and did not use excessive force.. like armbars might be considered or knees/elbows to the head..

in sport situations i do prefer armbars slightly unless they give up there back then im happy to just choke them out

krav is taught to the US spec ops and black op personnel..
