Backing up is fright and flight: it emboldens an enemy; don't back up - turn your weapon side away from the threat, with your weapon hand NEAR weapon, and other hand on center or hollow of chest. This is the ready-draw position. Use the non-weapon hand to deflect and/or control an enemy. If you have to draw and put shots on target, keep your non-weapon hand as needed but make sure your shots on target are from close to holster and below your non-weapon arm/hand. When firing in close combat, NOW you move in the direction of your holster/weapon. Move sideways keeps enemy turning and very likely off balance - don't stop moving or shooting until the threat stops moving. Watch how boxers mover around each other in the ring: the boxer who is turning is going to get hit by the boxer moving to his opponent's weak side. Great video John and Cecil.

This was great! I've learned a lot of the past 18 month between the classes at Sig Sauer Academy, weekly practice at my club with the IDPA, USPSA and Steel Challenge people, as well as shooting competitions. I've also started taking classes from a national level instructor (teaches at DOJ, SWAT teams and other such units) and have learned that while all the competition stuff has done so much for my planning, speed and accuracy, there is a whole other level of training you need to do to be defense ready. I am a life long shooter and still realize each session how much I don't know. Also, never underestimate the power of dry fire training! I have a CO2 pistol that is exactly the same as my regular handguns, it is a great gun for dry fire training because you can run CO2 in it without ever putting a pellet in it.
@ASPextra
@ASPextra 7 лет назад
Dry fire is invaluable for sure.

Ultimately I feel it comes down to one keyword, confidence. The importance of confidence can be seen when people put a half hearted defense or disarm attempt. Training builds confidence in yourself that you have what it takes. Then if you ever do find yourself in a dangerous situation you are not the guy who pulls the limp wristed attempt to take a gun away or to draw your own gun, but you are the guy who is confident in your ability to handle yourself, stand in the pocket under pressure, just as you trained, and defend yourself and loved ones adequately. If you want to be thay confident guy who handles his business and ensures his and his own gets put alive you gotta get training and practice what you learn at home regularly.

Close self defense is the result of allowing threats too close; situational awareness, yourself AND your surroundings...always fallback, drawing your weapon of choice and remove the threat!
@ASPextra
@ASPextra 4 года назад
I think that's an overly optimistic view of real self-defense. Watch the main channel awhile and you'll see how frequently that's out of your control.
@ansiviewer
@ansiviewer 4 года назад
@@ASPextra Yes! You are correct! As a retired USAF Airman, I have some training on self defense. I continue to learn from others, like you. I reflect on the ultimate self-defense situations, guarding a military installation at the outside gate. The only defense is to maintain excellent situational awareness at all times. The "Bad Guys" will not announce themselves before attacking. As defenders we must know our surroundings at all times. As a civilian, to fall back to safety while being prepared to defend one's self with appropriate force is a must! Your training methods are excellent and I hope you keep leading the charge to improve Americans. After all, freedom is not free.
@rodgregg2755
@rodgregg2755 6 лет назад
Being in condition yellow radiates and predators are looking for the oblivious targets. Another point you made that I want to share experience... Rational thought and Emotional reaction are mutual exclusive. The brain cannot do both at the same time. If one is not situationally aware, and doesn't realize the threat until it is upon them, the initial reaction is going to be emotional fueled by hormonal dumps and fight/flight.

@williambeasley2582
@williambeasley2582 4 года назад
Most people want to aim trier gun for every shot. Don't even look at the gun and don't try to think things through. Pull The Weapon and point and shoot till the assailant goes down. This is a forced desion. Now that he's down. RUN get to cover and maintain distance from him till help arrives.. When help arrives that is the first time that you can approach him because he might be only slightly injured and playing possum on you and try to attack you. Your personal safety is to be first and the only thing you consider.

@phillhuddleston9445
@phillhuddleston9445 4 года назад
If you think you can use a defensive move properly because you watched a guy on you tube demonstrate how to do it but you naver have tried it and the first time attempting it is against a criminal in a real life bad situation then watch someone speak one sentence of a foreign language and try to repeat that one sentence a month later without ever speaking it before. It's fine to learn from you tube but practice it with a partner and yes it is better to have an instructor critique you but at a minimum practice it before attempting it in a real life situation. I made it to first degree brown belt when I was younger, you are rarely great at a defensive or offensive move the first time trying it.

People often put their arms out as a measure. If I can touch you one hand I can hit you with the other. You'll see pro boxer's, pro muay thai, bouncers, plenty of other cases where they do that to land the other hand.
@zeitgeist888
@zeitgeist888 7 лет назад
If Cecil(24 years and multiple titles) is extending his arms or backing up and John is and has been doing martial arts for many years seriously is it practical to attempt to stop or avoid these natural actions? How realistic is it for a regular person with a lot less experience and training NOT to do the same thing.
@ASPextra
@ASPextra 7 лет назад
That's why we train! To get out of bad habits.
@zeitgeist888
@zeitgeist888 7 лет назад
Sure but if 24 years of training hasn't stopped a person from doing it what happens to the person with 3 years of training that gets attacked and uses the skills to the best of their ability and does the natural response of backing up or extending the arms? Is it not better to work with the natural responses rather than against them if 24 years of training hasn't completely eliminated doing them? You can still work on doing them less at the same time but having skills based on natural responses seems more appropriate. Even very experienced shooters still jerk the trigger sometimes. However strong two handed grip and balanced strong stance help mitigate the amount the lack of good trigger control causes to accuracy.
@ASPextra
@ASPextra 7 лет назад
Not if that natural response puts someone in a bad position. I think you misheard. Cecil said that at 24 years of training that he still had bad habits, not that he still did what he talks about in this video.
@zeitgeist888
@zeitgeist888 7 лет назад
Not to belabor the point to minutia but between 5:20 and 5:30 Cecil says he still makes the mistake of putting his arms out and was caught by his sparring partner doing so. The point being that you (John) and Cecil are very skilled,train regularly, have years of training and practice yet you back up and Cecil sticks his arms out at least sometimes in non life threatening sparring situations. Is there a way to work with these natural responses that even the well trained people do? Such as Tony Blauer's SPEAR or something else. Does it work with the T and second B (Behavior) in the TABBE evaluation of techniques. conflictresearchgroupintl.com/the-t-a-b-b-e-test-erik-kondo/

Dude, bad guys *don't train* . They don't go to the range. They [97%] have no empty handed skills because they don't train to be bad guys. They go into a robbery with a hoodie and pants around their knees holding their blaster sideways in one hand. *Any* training and practice on our part is going to be useful and give us the advantage against 'most' bad guys.

@FNG_Star
@FNG_Star 7 лет назад
MrB1923 Pardon my skepticism but Navy Seals, Marines/Force Recons, Rangers etc etc, all seem capable of handling themselves in dangerous situations, yet it does not take decades to train them to that level. I think what matter is the type and quality of that training. So make sure the type of training js tailored to your needs. If you are taking a class and it looks like a bunch of private contractors are in that class running ar-15's you're probably not in the right training for a ccw situation. Seals train combatives and combatives with weapons. A training program that merges martial arts/combatives with weapons (retention, deployment, and use) is likely a very good program. Take notes, and go home and practice witj family and friends. Then take the class again and again if you can. A fun way to get away with it is to incorporate it into your vacation plans. You could take $300 and go deep sea fishing, or take that money and go take a training class while the wife goes shopping with the kids for the day. Lol at least thats how i get away with it sometimes. Sometimes....

In defense of the OP here, the military spec ops people don't train once a month, or twice a year. If we're talking about the average joe who gets to do a good hard weekend of fantastic training once or twice a year, I'm gonna side with the OP. You need to live and breathe this stuff and sink it into muscle memory. I agree that training is absolutely necessary, and just being exposed to this stuff and changing your mindset helps. But if John is talking about reflexively backing up DESPITE saying to himself he won't, it goes to show what volume of training is necessary to beat their instinctual responses out of them. If John and Cecil are still making "stupid mistakes," that almost tells me I have no hope lol.

D. Utley I think we are falling into an all or nothing mindset. "If we cant train to the level of an elite operator then there is little point to train at all." Sorry not trying to straw man, but that seems to be a point being made. I just feel that having some training, again that we take home practice regularly, then go back to the same training and see how well that practice paid off and if we improved our performance under manufactured stress, is a way better way to approach your personal safety and self defense than just going to a ccw course and buying a gun. That said shooting regularly and having basic proficiency with the weapon is way more important than training. All training in the word wont save you if you dont even remember how the recoil feels and what to expect when the gun goes bang. For me personally I find both important, AND FUN! So I do both. Long story short, some training is always better than no training. Take what little training you can get and practice it at home. Also get info off of youtube like tact/proactive/combat reloads and practice them. Just realize having an instructor help you see your own mistakes. Im ranting so I'll stop. Goodluck guys

Yeah, I wasn't trying to make an all or nothing point, and I agree with what you guys are saying. Training in martial arts three times a week versus going to the shooting range once a month or less frequent aren't in the same boat. That said, I agree that both need to be done, with shooting hopefully happening more frequently. I personally don't have the time or the budget to do either regularly, and I'm personally OK with that at this point in my life. I need to make 2018 the year that my gun is no longer a 'woobie', and I at least recognize that.
