I love it when Loki has a rant… he swears a lot, the sentence structure is wafty and spelling is bad so please forgive him (not that he cares whether you do or not)
Reading Loki when he is a rant is a really good way of brining you back to earth I find. Back to reality. With a thump. Probably the Thump of Loki’s fist connecting with some poor persons skull. Martial arts intrinsically tempts us towards over intellectuasion and nerdification…. why? its in its essential nature - because by necessity it is a systemised studyyou cant do violence “non violently”- remember to keep that violence there in your training.Here we go….
“Techniques”, “Favorites” and “TACTICAL Delivery System”
How many times do you see people advocating simple techniques and tactics in the self defense field? What you will find on these people is that they are usually the ones that are “technique collector”, a common question that they like to ask is “Can you give me a list of your favorites techniques?”(And those who likes to discuss the issue between palm striking and fisted strike for years), they are also the ones who likes to analyze about a strike FOR EIGHT FUCKING PAGES! GIVE ME A BREAK!
DO you ever seen people in boxing gyms discuss about the right cross every two days in a week? Yea, yea, yea now you are going to tell me they are sport fighters. If you apply the same format in the different manner (Which you should) from realistic sport systems into your self “defense” (you know about the deal) arsenal, you can take away much of the bullshit. The format here is ATRRIBUTES FIRST, with a few simple techniques.
In a real “Do or DIE” combat situation or a drag out street fight, you are probably will want to rely on one or two hard hitting effective shot combined with gouging and maiming tactics etc. So, what matters here is, for the holy living Christ sake DO IT WITH FUCKING HATE. Destroy them, go bat shit, maim them, NOW you, YES YOU, step out of the way and let your inner animal, demon, or whatever that is to take over, a lot of the discussions on techniques are just plain nonsense and are ludicrous idea when some is REALLY trying to TAKE YOU OUT .
Other attributes you need include, strength (Emphasizing on Brute strength and explosive strength here. Strength endurance and speed strength.), reaction time, agility, coordination etc. THESE are the stuff you want to load your “weapons” with. Not silly mumbo jumbo tactics. “Favorites”, the list located on my computer is call favorites, which has no fucking thing to do with fighting. Stop discussing and start working.
Another group you often see are “Tactical SURVIVAL, URABN destruction” and “REALISTIC Military combat System” (Yea, does that even make any sense). These groups often attract many people (I am not talking about the ones with navy pants and tactical gears, they are not in the self defense field, they are masters of hypnotizing themselves, others and movie directing)
Anyway regarding these tactical guys, they are pretty much like the people I mentioned above, but these are the people that teaches these ideas. Always, check, analyze yourself before enrolling into any program, a lot of the stuff out there which is popular and recommended by so many “experts” are actually being unrealistic even it SEEMS realistic (Remember what I said about hypnotizing?)
I know this article won’t offend anyone,
because
THOSE IDIOTS DON”T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
