Re: Punching bags
That BAS thing looks to be a great alternative to a full bag setup since it can be moved/folded-up. I’ll definitely keep my eye on this.

Could you give me a link to the 3 part series you are referring to? Thanks.

Well put.

Good to know CJ’s Dad. Thanks for the input.
quote CJs Dad:Weapon on weapon is covered in the advanced material. Knife/Knife ñ Stick/Stick but its still from a defensive perspective (at least from what Iíve seen)Having said that, as was mentioned before KM is primarily a defensive system. KMs meant to protect you and your family etc from attacks from those types of weapons.

I agree with you, Don. Maybe I worded the original question incorrectly. Another way of putting it is what sort of supplemental training is good to take on top of KM?
Are weapons usage taught in KM? I mean this in the offensive manner and not so much defensive or disarming an assailant.
Thanks for the responses thus far (well, the serious one at least…. )

That’s very insightful, fred_jennings. Thanks very much for your response!
quote fred_jennings:There is one notable weakness of the Krav fighting stance that only becomes apparent if you allow yourself to get into a boxing/kickboxing type of situation. The relatively square stance does leave you somewhat vulnerable to attacks straight up the middle. But getting into that type of situation in a self-defense type situation is never a good idea so the problem never should really show itself except in sparring situations. And if you do get into that sitution, especially in sparring, knowing that the stance leaves you vulnerable up the middle is enough to keep you safe, as you will be looking for those attacks and be ready with your inside defense and front kick defenses…February 13, 2009 at 11:44 pm #73381riight112MemberRe: tombstone pads
