I trained in Krav in Las Vegas with the famous Donavin Britt, we were taught to avoid fighting at all cost, if you can’t do that, then end the fight as quickly as possible. A lot of guys studying different disciplines don’t consider Krav a martial art and I would agree, there’s nothing “artistic” about it, it’s brutally effective.

is krav maga better to stop an opponent or actually fight one?

[@sail4life]

@@m3cha131 Stop an opponent, that's why it's called a self-defense style, not a martial art. There is no below the belt in Krav, ears, eyes, groin, breaking fingers, everything is allowed. If you want to fight, do MMA.

[@larrysalinas4507]

Krav Maga is self defense. It’s not meant to be offensive but rather defensive. You can cross train with MMA or other martial arts then you can be more offensive but Krav Maga is anything goes, low shots, grappling, combatives, etc. Techniques are meant to be quick and simple to more complex and dangerous. Not about points but doing what you have to do to get home.

Fantastic explanations. Really appreciate the way you break down the moves with simple, clear instructions. You're a great instructor.. Didn't think to protect my jaw when striking so thank you.

I like the concept of striking with the palm of the hand, instead of making a fist.

[@jasonleon1976]

Coming from a boxing background, I was sceptical about this technique. However, logically it makes sense. You can hit a wall harder with your palm than your fist (with no broken knuckles), Less chance of deflection, will catch your attacker off guard and (in my opinion) more accurate. I like to mix up conventional striking with palm striking depending on the situation. Non the less, a very good skill to have in your defence armoury.

Palm strike also lines up the bones of the forearm, requires less conscious effort to keep from injuring your wrist. Done boxing and martial arts and it makes good sense to palm strike. Especially on the street with no gloves or mouth pieces, a "fight bite" is a HUGE injury. Teeth especially if they break are fekkin sharp and loaded with bacteria. Saw an investigation show where the killer was caught because he had a fight bite from his victim and nearly lost his hand....justice served by bacteria

You seriously don’t know what you’re talking about do you lol. Do some research on real Krav Maga as devised for the IDF Israeli Defence Force’s special forces. And you say for old people……🤦🏻‍♂️😂. Real Krav, we don’t use gloves or matts, or fake weapons and we don’t touch spar. People get hurt whilst studying krav. Whatever this guy is teaching, is not what I’ve spent 20 years of my life, 1/2 of that in the military, teaching to soldiers, prison officers and police.

Love the nitpicky back-and-forth in the comments over whether or not Krav Maga is a "martial art." Every fighting technique, from basic hand-to-hand combat to the application of advanced weaponry to strike at an enemy is technically a martial art, in that it is a methodology applicable to the waging of war/conflict. Sun Tzu didn't title his definitive work "The Activity of War". The argument that Krav Maga isn't a martial art is based on the fundamental misunderstanding of the word "art" in this application. It comes from folks who are so focused on the wrong definition of that word (it has more than one, you know), and who are so obsessed with things like styles, belts, etc., that they've almost completely forgotten the operative word in the phrase - "martial."

I've fought a guy who used palm stikes yea he hit me a lot but it didnt hurt my fist on the other hand crushed his nose broke his jaw and fractured his cheekbone. I'm not worried about how my hands are gonna feel tomorrow. Proper punching technique will prevent you from hurting your wrists. If you have to bust a knuckle to one and done a mf to keep him from hurting you or anyone else I say its worth it

[@Imperial_Cosmonaut]

I agree, I'm skeptical about open hands in general. Every good martial art (including boxing) teaches to always keep fists closed the whole fight, to become instinctual and always ready if an opening for a punch opens up. 1. Fingers are EXTREMELY easy to catch/snag/break. 2. Learning how to align punches right is monumentally necessary to keep from easily spraining wrists if you ever DO use a fist. 3. Yes, a palm cushions the blow. Open hand muscle memory/training kinda comes off as a recipe for disaster and getting used to bad habits

[@uneedtlc2]

Women really shouldn't fight closed fisted. Unless we are trained well, we do more than scuff our knuckles. We break entire hands. For 20 years, I was fighting almost daily. Mostly with men. I've done some damage and have never used a closed fist. I used a lot of elbows and knees though. Lol

[@primordial.sounds]

These are combatives not defenses. The palm strike is used as an attack so we don't break our knuckles on hard face bones.

[@naughtyinator088]

Palm strikes are alright for close range, but you lose reach as well as your fingers being compromised for bending/jamming. A fist is much better for a street application. Just make sure youre striking with the rams head side of the fist (first 2 knuckles. pointer and middle knuckles)

[@mauricematla1215]

Punching with a.closed does take much more practice to get exactly right. When using the palm or more desirable the root of the hand you automatically have the wrist (and shoulder) lined up in a straight line behind the contact surface lessening the rist of damage to yourself. It can take years of conditioning the knuckels to get to the same thougness the root of the hand or bottom of te fist (hammerfist) has naturally. Clearly anclosed fist punch can be a good tool but is harder to master

[@Mr-Tibbster]

There is a lot more to it than that. This is a good "basic foundation" to begin understanding, but you need live practice with another person, a teacher to help adress any body mechanics you're doing wrong. You must learn and understand the core princibles of combat vital to "any" martial art or self defence, which goes beyond just learning tecniques. You must learn the "mentality" of the art. How to deal with pressure and how to keep going when an attempted technique fails, as there is no 100% guarantee anything you do will work, and this truth is important to all martial arts in order to not fall into a false sense of security. Vital skills you need are: -Understanding of distance and timing (approaching an enemy, retreating from an enemy, both when striking, being struck and when there is no engagement) -Understanding and training in gross motor skills martial training in basic hits and body covers (as when adrenaline hits you, that's all you'll be left with, simplicity is king). -Power generation skills (knowing what mechanics, posture and mind set makes for a good strike, and learning to punch "through" a target and not "at it"). -Foundational control skills (knowing and experiencing how to stand up grapple, hold and wrestle someone at a basic degree in order to deal with physical struggle and to buy time to try and apply a throw, lock, break/dislocation or hit). -Ability to apply under pressure (learning to use adenaline to your advantage and to endure. To deal with full speed and full force impacts. To deal with failure of an attempted move. Understanding true martial skill and self defence is "reactionary and adaptive" not planned ahead of time). -Mentality of street combat (don't treat the fight like a sports match, there is no mercy, no squaring up, no warnings and no breaks in real fights. Attacks come as a surprise and you must train how to deal with an attack that hits you without even seeing it coming, or an attack that begins by you physically being struck in a disadvantagous and unprepared physical postion. Once the combat starts you hit and don't stop until the attacker falls or runs away, do not to fall into the "one hit win" trap that many train themselves falsely into and become unstuck when their opponent is still standing, even after a single successful defence move pulled off on them, nor to fall into the trap of landing a couple of good hits then bouncing away from the opponent again like they do in the ring. And most importantly to remember there is no magic move or recipe to win, all martial training is simply to give you a "better fighting chance").

The reason for one side being forward is that your gun (if you're military or LEO) is holstered further away on the other side. If you are left-handed, that would also be your gun side. But... be aware that your opponent is probably right-handed.

I think krav maga might be another decent martial art for me to learn based off this vid and what ive seen

[@AnthonyV.000]

Bruh this finna be so easy since ive done so many other martial arts im just a natural, first try i look like a pro already

[@GlobalMartialArtsUniversity]

It's a highly effective defense system, and we have a fantastic program: globalmartialarts.university/course/kravmaga/

[@joeferraro4168]

Great pace

[@tomd1434]

The orthodox boxing stance with the back foot at an angle seems a lot better than all 10 toes facing forward for power, balance, and movement. Just my opinion. I do like the idea of using open hands for self defense to avoid injury.

[@obgfoster]

The follow-up to combatives is escaping, which is easier done with the foot facing the way it will when you run.

[@timebomb4562]

hmm interesting what mike said about the backhand having more rotation

[@chefcaseyryback]

Except most defenses don't start in a ready position. Krav 101. Palm is great though.

teaching good technique

I'm a 14 year old girl who is really into bushcraft and self defense, just because a lot of times as a woman, I feel vulnerable, especially being so young, so this will help me, and I'm not going to be the one you'd want to mess with in the end, lmao

I am 4”11. Should I be striking higher or in alignment with my shoulders ? Cause if it’s a bigger attacker I’d be hitting the rib cage 🤔

@Jonathon Fassold he might not have any but I’m certain this dude teaching you the palm strike does, and also Bruce Lee founded an entire martial arts on his own and it’s still taught today.

Does this work on a resisting opponent 🤔

[@drhkleinert3245]

No, like 99% of all Dojostuff.

[@trailokyamukherjee5799]

It works, I am practicing KM since 2010. I successfully used it in few occasions. It is very practical and makes u fit enough to run away from a potential fight. The 1st lesson was to avoid physical confrontation at all costs n keep your mouth shut n ego aside. Run away if possible or walk away but if the confrontation is inevitable then finish it neat and quick. Walk away immediately.

[@pst5345]

Everything works. The problem of Dojo stuff is the mindset. Dojos have rules. Sport has rules. Krav Maga is taught for situations without rules and focuses its training around that. But in any way the basics need to be taught isolated till you are able to use them in a flow and adapt to the situation. That being said, nobody forbids you to ignore Dojo rules when fighting for your life outside of it. The armchair experts in comment sections are so annoying. Nobody learns these techniques, muscle memory etc. from 1 video. You have get your entitled ass up and train every day. It is less the technique than the practitioner which make something work or not.

[@ninapeace6761]

Well explained! Thanks for sharing ! I

[@GlobalMartialArtsUniversity]

Glad you liked it!

[@AngryBirdzMTheOneonlyreelkool]

Do you always lead with your left, what if you’re right handed?

[@jalizcordero2336]

AngryBirdzM from my understanding, having your left foot in front would give your right hand more power because of the swing

[@Taliesin_McKnight]

Your weaker hand is in front, and is called the jab. Your stronger hand is back to have more force, and is called the cross. This is basic boxing, which i used to take. Glad to see this is also in krav maga

[@tinevega8160]

[@warriorninja3148]

Sir, can lefties keep their right leg in front?

[@horheathetoad5655]

Yes you should. It uses the momentum of your body and puts it into the punch for more power.
