This is how real programs are built.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Key Takeaways&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kids Krav Maga is &lt;strong&gt;not full-contact fighting or competition training&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The goal is &lt;strong&gt;confidence, awareness, and safety — not aggression&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Instructor quality and program structure matter more than the name&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kids learn through &lt;strong&gt;games, repetition, and controlled scenarios&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Training often &lt;strong&gt;reduces bullying and emotional reactivity&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Parents must reinforce training at home for maximum impact&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Who This Is For&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Parents considering self-defense training for their kids&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Families concerned about bullying, confidence, or awareness&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Adults skeptical about martial arts programs for children&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Current members who want to better understand the “why” behind training&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;🎧 Listen &amp;amp; Subscribe&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spotify&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://open.spotify.com/show/6hDh7OscpVMKLLY8rCvgqs&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://open.spotify.com/show/6hDh7OscpVMKLLY8rCvgqs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Apple Podcasts&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-john-hallett-podcast/id1651930801&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-john-hallett-podcast/id1651930801&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;All Platforms&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://redcircle.com/shows/a982e1e3-972c-4e9f-b369-6b29534df441&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://redcircle.com/shows/a982e1e3-972c-4e9f-b369-6b29534df441&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;YouTube Playlist&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIJr7pPF9el8qfN4mG9p8BxtuPKOpSBVn&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIJr7pPF9el8qfN4mG9p8BxtuPKOpSBVn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

                <itunes:summary>Competition martial arts and real-world self-defense are often confused — and that confusion can get people hurt.

In this episode, John Hallett and Josh Hammerling explain why training to win matches is fundamentally different from training to survive unpredictable, real-life violence. They discuss beginner limitations, the 80/20 rule in self-defense, and how techniques taken out of context online mislead everyday people.

If your goal is awareness, preparedness, and getting home safe — not trophies — this episode breaks down what realistic self-defense training actually looks like.</itunes:summary>

                <description><![CDATA[<p>There’s a lot of martial arts content online that looks impressive—but taken out of context, it can confuse people fast.</p><p>In this episode of <em>The John Hallett Podcast</em>, we break down one of the biggest misconceptions in self-defense training: the belief that any system—Krav Maga included—can magically neutralize a highly trained fighter.</p><p>That’s not reality.</p><p>If someone has years of boxing, wrestling, or BJJ experience, and you’ve been training for six months, you’re already behind. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling fantasy.</p><p>What Krav Maga is designed to do is far more honest—and far more useful.</p><p>It focuses on teaching the <strong>20% of skills that solve about 80% of real-world problems</strong>:</p><ul><li>Awareness</li><li>De-escalation</li><li>Gross-motor, high-percentage movements</li><li>Decision-making under stress</li></ul><p>That matters because most real-world attacks aren’t clean, technical, or fair. They’re chaotic. Emotional. Close. And often involve people with <strong>little to no formal training</strong>—not elite competitors.</p><p>We also talk about how social media creates false comparisons:</p><ul><li>Competition techniques shown as “self-defense”</li><li>Advanced movements taught to beginners</li><li>Videos designed to “debunk” other systems by changing the context</li></ul><p>That’s not education. That’s confusion.</p><p>Self-defense isn’t about winning exchanges or proving superiority. It’s about using the <strong>right tool for the right moment</strong>—or better yet, avoiding the fight entirely when possible.</p><p>One example we discuss: a training scenario where de-escalation was the correct answer—but a student defaulted to striking simply because they were “in range.” That choice escalated a situation that didn’t need to become violent.</p><p>That’s a training failure—not a technique failure.</p><p>The takeaway is simple:</p><ul><li>Context matters</li><li>Probability matters</li><li>Principles matter more than flashy techniques</li></ul><p>And most of all, <strong>how you train is how you default under stress</strong>.</p><p>If your training ignores awareness, escalation control, and decision-making, no amount of technique will save you.</p><p>🎧 <strong>Listen to the full episode for the full breakdown, examples, and real talk.</strong></p><p>Podcast Transcript 1.10.25</p><p>Speaker 1: Hey, everybody. Welcome back. I&#39;m John Hallett, and joined with me is Josh Hammerling. How you guys doing? Been a little bit since we recorded a podcast. Today, we&#39;re talking about this and that. I had some other things on my mind, but we&#39;re gonna stick to I hate to use the word</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and, you know, some of that kinda thing, but there is so much there on the internet, that people put out videos and it&#39;s just out of context, you know. We, Josh and I watched a couple videos out there, and there&#39;s some great stuff. I always sometimes say, &#34;Look, if you just specialize in one thing, yeah, you&#39;re gonna kick my butt at it.&#34; Like I am not as strong as I could be for my body weight if I just focused on strength, you know. I wanna be all around good and prepared, and I see a lot of competition self-defense martial arts out there talking about, you know, some of these worst case scenarios for them against a skilled fighter. And that&#39;s not what&#39;s gonna happen in a common street attack. If you get attacked by somebody that specializes in something, you&#39;re in trouble already.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Especially as a low level beginner, and that&#39;s just reality. I mean, we&#39;re very upfront with our students, like you gotta put in time.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, just because you&#39;re doing a self-defense system and you&#39;ve been training it six months, you know, great. You got six months of training. But somebody could come after you that&#39;s got, you know, two years of training.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And they&#39;re gonna be better.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: So And people always wanna be better, you know. I was talking to a guy this week, you know, &#34;I&#39;m not that good on the ground.&#34; like, &#34;You&#39;re not good at stand up either.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: &#34;You&#39;re not good at this or that.&#34; It&#39;s just slow, steady work. And what we&#39;re talking about in Krav Maga is, you know, especially at the basic level, of course we wanna expand and we wanna get better, but what&#39;s so... The misconception so many times on Krav Maga is that it&#39;s the end all, be all against somebody that is a high level</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... of, you know, whatever it is. Wrestler, BJJ, boxer, right? You&#39;re not gonna outbox a skilled boxer.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: No. I&#39;ve tried.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: That&#39;s right. As a beginner. That is just the reality. What Krav Maga really tries to get beginners at is, we&#39;re gonna teach you 20% of the fight that&#39;s gonna get you ... 80% of the time.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know? It&#39;s kinda the opposite of how you should eat. The 80/20 rule. 80% of the</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... eat right. And you&#39;ve gotta build on that, right? Even if you&#39;re like 50/50. You&#39;re, you&#39;re upping your odds, and that&#39;s all just in training. And I see a lot of videos that, you know, are taken out of context, whether it&#39;s Krav Maga person, self-defense person, and you can make different things look bad no matter what. You know? Sometimes people in self-defense world will make a technique that some of the other practitioner style is doing and make it look bad.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. It&#39;s, that&#39;s just, you know, playing to the hits and all ... type of stuff on social media.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah, and then, like, trying to expect people to be able to pull off advanced techniques when they&#39;re lower belts for self-defense, and like they&#39;re incorporating it into whatever they do, it just kinda does a disservice to people that, are trying to learn how to defend themselves, because the, the average person can&#39;t pull off some crazy moves I&#39;ve seen out there that people apply to self-defense. And there&#39;s so much going on. I I mean, when I first started with you, I barely knew where to put my hands, let alone how to grab somebody and do something, right? It just... you gave me enough to start getting to where I needed to go, right?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: And kind what you&#39;re talking about there.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: It&#39;s trying to be well-rounded.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, a little bit of this, and, you know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And, you know, Krav Maga is definitely added, especially here, but I know my instructor and other friends of mine like to add more ground because more people are</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: more ground fighting and grappling than, you know, the decades where Karate Kid and Jean-Claude Van</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: were super popular, and more people were doing that type of stuff. You know, you gotta shift, &#39;cause that&#39;s what we&#39;re talking about.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Self-defense. Like what, what&#39;s the greatest probability this is gonna happen to somebody in the street? And for the most part, you know, you look at just common street fights, what are that... What&#39;s that person doing?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, they&#39;re not highly</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah, no.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... if it&#39;s a highly skilled person that gets you, you&#39;re in trouble.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: You&#39;re in</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Like I&#39;m not</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, Eric my BJJ coach, you know, I&#39;m not gonna... I mean, he&#39;s bigger than me, whatever. You know, you&#39;re like I can&#39;t go against him.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: If somebody specializes, just like I</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... you know, if you put John just specializing in strength and then John that&#39;s trying to be all rounded,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... you know, all things equal, yeah, John that just specializes in strength, he&#39;s gonna be stronger.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I&#39;m not gonna be able to compete with him because that&#39;s his specialty. And that&#39;s the other confusion on Krav Maga, we&#39;re trying to be well rounded.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: sure. We... lots of different things. If, if you only do one particular kind of... I, don&#39;t say this again. Like in self-defense you can&#39;t kinda specialize in just one thing because you don&#39;t know what&#39;s being thrown at you. It&#39;s so random at times.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Well,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Like have to have my hands. I have to have some ground.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Well, and you have to have the awareness skills</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: that</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: you know, a competition fight you know, isn&#39;t looking for a guy reaching for a knife. I&#39;m sorry, guys. That&#39;s just the way it is. Like how you train is how you fight, and if you&#39;re just caught up in that, you&#39;re gonna miss other things. It was like I</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: We had some beginners in the class, and I was like, &#34;Here&#39;s a red belt in Krav Maga, and look.&#34;Situation was parking lot, you know, guy&#39;s mad at you, he hit the car, and I&#39;m kind of, you know, in her space, but I&#39;m trying to look for her, and the drill was deescalation.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: That&#39;s all I want you to do. Attacker&#39;s not showing any signs of attacks or grabbing or, you know, threatening, you know, gestures. They&#39;re just mad.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And she kicked me.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Oof.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And I went, &#34;Okay, that&#39;s her call.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: to beginners. I&#39;m like, &#34;Krav Maga people are bad at this a lot the times. You just started a fight.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: &#34;Could you have deescalated?&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And that&#39;s the problem. You&#39;re now looking, like, okay, I&#39;m in front kick range. Well, great. It wasn&#39;t necessarily the right thing. Maybe that&#39;s your tactics. I&#39;m gonna say if that&#39;s what you felt you had to do, go ahead, but let&#39;s think about did you need to kick him?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Could you have gotten around?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Did you use the right tool?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: yeah, did you use the right tool? That type of thing.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure. Sure, exactly.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, it&#39;s really tough.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: But, okay, do you see people out there that try to start confusing stuff that would be the right tool? Like, I, I mean,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: The right tool?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah. Let&#39;s say, like,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Are there people out there that would say this tool is better than this one because we&#39;ve done it this way for years and years and years? But it&#39;s a super hard thing to do, right? Like some of the stuff we do is just clearing the neck, and it&#39;s a simple move &#39;cause it&#39;s lot of high gross motor skills. But when you start adding complexity, I mean, the average lay student can&#39;t even grasp it. And, like, the self-defense for, like a preeminent let&#39;s say, just a like a kung fu guy would be different than somebody else. And they&#39;re, they&#39;re... Or even, like, the competition stuff they do, like, is it, is it the same kind of tool that they&#39;re using in their sport that you&#39;re gonna use in self-defense? And I guess there might be some gap, but for the most part, a lot of the tools used</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: where you gotta follow the principles of Krav Maga.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: did that, you know... Is that taking it to the ground? Is it, you know, building off of instinct, a principle? You know, there&#39;s tons of great things where like, &#34;Yeah, that&#39;s good, but it&#39;s breaking this self-defense or Krav Maga principle.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, come behind me and put me in an armbar choke. You know, get around, go around, go.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I&#39;m coming, I&#39;m coming, coming, I&#39;m coming.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Don&#39;t rush and kill yourself. Like, I saw a guy, you know, do a throw from here. Now, I&#39;m not at the end of the lever here.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And if I have this arm injured, you know, this arm, we&#39;re trying to, you know, pull down at the end of the lever and punch our shoulder in there, versus this is instinctive but this hand&#39;s doing nothing.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Right? If I... And I&#39;m smaller, right? I wanna be, you know, following some principles. And you can see, I like to double up that hand and hey, under stress, I&#39;m gonna be glad to be here. But when I train, I&#39;m going like this, bum, and I&#39;m doubling up on that hand, and it&#39;s training this hand to go as deep as I can at the end of the lever. So, you know, I can I&#39;ve seen videos like that. I think we saw... I I think it was after you were watching with me. You know, guys doing that, maybe going into a throw, but, hey, if I&#39;m smaller, we&#39;re trying to follow principles. And I think you&#39;re getting sidetracked.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: A confused.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And it was funny there was something else I was thinking of when you were talking there, and I totally lost my train of thought letting you talk.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I should&#39;ve cut you off.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: You didn&#39;t</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: shouldn&#39;t hung you up as usual.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: figured asking questions like I already knew.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: it&#39;s pretty... I forget what I was totally thinking about when you were in there. But you&#39;ve got a lot of martial arts, and a lot of things can work.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But we&#39;re also, you&#39;re also training a low-level person.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: you gotta bring them up to speed, and I see a lot of videos out there that just really kind of bad-mouth or make, you know, Krav Maga or self-defense look bad when they&#39;re talking about competition stuff.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And that&#39;s just different.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And if a competition person grabs you this way, they&#39;re gonna do X. What I see common people</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Uh-huh.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: you know, and kids, it&#39;s not the high-level person.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: They&#39;re not doing an advanced move on you. They don&#39;t know to do X, Y and</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: whatever it may be, in whatever context. But they&#39;ll put the Krav Maga technique and make it look bad.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But they&#39;re all... You&#39;re going... Now you&#39;re facing the worst case scenario of somebody high-level.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. You&#39;re going to lose. I&#39;m sorry, that&#39;s reality. And competition guys know two people get in the ring, one person loses.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. That&#39;s good.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: reality. Not making a technique look bad, and maybe sending somebody to the wrong martial art. Like, what are you looking at? We have people come in and they kinda know from our website too, like, we have less and less, that we&#39;re a self-defense gym. We&#39;re not a competition gym.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Oh,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: If you&#39;re looking to compete, that&#39;s not what we&#39;re doing. We&#39;re self-defense. That&#39;s what we do.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And people get confused on going to X, Y and Z martial art and going, &#34;Oh, this is all about self-defense, because I saw a video and they&#39;re they&#39;re self-defense.&#34; But are they really?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: There are, you know... There can be good crossover and good instructors that teach both.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But if you&#39;re in a competition-focused gym mainly, you know, are you really</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: the best self-defense that you could be getting?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure. &#39;cause from their perspective, you&#39;re working on competition. Like, you&#39;re working on getting into the ring, you&#39;re working</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Weight classes.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: All that stuff,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. You know, it&#39;s really tough.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Right, known variables.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Even class is known. Hey, we&#39;re gonna spar today. You know you&#39;re showing up to sparring class.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Right.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: There&#39;s mental prep that&#39;s goes on. Yeah, and what I&#39;m thinking</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: yeah, is that, that&#39;s a very kind of narrow percentage of people who wanna go to that competition realm and style.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I don&#39;t know. I wouldn&#39;t say narrow.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Because</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I... You know, you&#39;re suddenly</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: ...</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: No, I mean, it&#39;s just... I don&#39;t know the, the statistics on there. I wouldn&#39;t... I hate to say narrow again, &#39;cause you&#39;re like, &#34;Misinformation.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure, what about</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Or or false information all that crap. More majority of people are never going to meet that, kind of thing.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: some, some guys, like, &#34;I just wanna compete and beat up other guys.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Sure,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: stroke my ego.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Dude, you know, it&#39;s what people are looking for. And that&#39;s why I wanted to bring up this topic. You know, it was I&#39;m gonna forget his name. Brent Contreras the Glute, The Glute Guy, and he he does some great videos, compliments some people. If we have time, &#39;cause we&#39;re behind, I have a video, and I, I think the guy&#39;s BJJ is phenomenal.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: That&#39;s</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: But I think a little bit of it is questionable on the average person.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... am I gonna</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: a 40-year-old housewife that&#39;s never done anything or hasn&#39;t done anything since high school a move like this, and is it breaking</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: self-defense, of did I take that fight to the ground on purpose? I think they do a good job of making the technique look bad, of, like, hit him in the groin, and it&#39;s kind of a funny video at the start that he clips in. But there&#39;s so much that, that are out here,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I just kind of wanted talk about people that are saying, you know, or misrepresenting their sport to make other things look bad and confusing the general public.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I think that&#39;s huge. It&#39;s been a huge thing since 2020, and I think a whole lot of it was crap, right? That&#39;s why I hate to use the word misinformation. You&#39;re confusing people. Are you out of context to what the situation is? It&#39;s like when I talk about the rolling defense in Krav Maga. Going, it&#39;s somebody throwing something straight at you. If the fight geometry gets off and now that angle of that kick is it might be a front kick, but the angle is coming off. Now you&#39;re gonna use the other hand instead of the standard right hand or back side in your rolling defense when somebody&#39;s straight at you. You start taking things out of context, like, &#34;It doesn&#39;t work.&#34; Well, it&#39;s out of context.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: angle is off. You know, people confuse that stuff. Or, &#34;Hey, it&#39;s not working.&#34; And you&#39;re going, &#34;Yeah, that&#39;s the fight.&#34; You&#39;re trying to do X, Y, and Z technique.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Keep saying that today. And they&#39;ve they&#39;ve changed the fight.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yes.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yes.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: it&#39;s different. You&#39;re trying to</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yes.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and they&#39;ve now just shifted their weight as the attacker. And now it&#39;s out of context.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Right.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: It&#39;s a really hard thing,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: And they make a video that drives you nuts about it.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, it&#39;s like, &#34;Come on.&#34; And that&#39;s where, you know, hey, great if you do both. We just kind of focus on that self-defense aspect.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And I think it can be hard, &#39;cause even, I haven&#39;t competed but I love sparring.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And you can get caught up in sparring.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Like I probably said it on the podcast. Like one time, you know, when I really started doing BJJ, that I was up but I went back down, and I landed on the guy&#39;s accidental elbow. I just came into his elbow that he was just there. It wasn&#39;t like he threw an elbow strike and I bit off half my tongue. And in the ER, I&#39;m like, &#34;Why did I go back down?&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, I was up in a way, but because I was grappling and thinking grappling and playing around, I went down and stayed down.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Oh.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, and that was, you know, that was 20 20 plus years ago now. You can get caught up in just stand up sparring</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: you know, this different stuff. And that&#39;s why we continue to try to evolve at RMSDF.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know, Clear Sky is our online portal guys.

Are, did you clock out?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I&#39;m an employee?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Oh, is that check going to somebody different? That goes directly to your wife &#39;cause you can&#39;t handle it.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I&#39;m out.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: He doesn&#39;t want to mess with his wife.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I think he&#39;s more scared of his wife than me and she&#39;s like four foot two.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: You&#39;re the only one that&#39;s knocked me out, though. Well, came close.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Came close. It wasn&#39;t rocking.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: know. I blocked with my face. But again, it was me blocking with my face and not ... not</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: All right. I&#39;ve got the utmost respect. What did we do to our screen here?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I don&#39;t know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: know</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Oh, is that stupid banner?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I can&#39;t see.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: what I&#39;m doing.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I I don&#39;t even need glasses.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Okay, what&#39;s going on?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Remember your little screens over there?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: took over. I know, but what happened I don&#39;t know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It&#39;s down at the bottom right there. Right there. Whoa.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I know it&#39;s right here somewhere, but no, it&#39;s not scrolling. Okay. Oh, get rid of that. There, but it still didn&#39;t change.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: You&#39;re scaring me. Like, there are days.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: You just made it bigger. That&#39;s okay. Look, it&#39;s back. Remember, and it&#39;s that little arrow right there.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was different a second ago.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It was.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: See, &#39;cause of that whatever took over.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It&#39;s okay. You gonna set this up for us?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. So, all right and I can just let him talk. Utmost Respect, he kicked my ass BJJ all day. He&#39;s got a great channel. I watch his videos. He&#39;s got some good stuff out there. If you&#39;re just thinking just BJJ, and this one&#39;s, like, kind of, like, I think he says at the end, like, if a bouncer grabs you in this position, and it&#39;s something to think about.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Sure.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Oh, actually I wanted to talk about the Minnesota thing. That&#39;s when we were talking.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: In there, so, you know, again, context, you know, was that bouncer justified to grab you? All that kind of stuff is what we talk about. Maybe they weren&#39;t. Bouncers do stupid stuff all the time,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Oh my.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I talk about I was just telling the story about the Rose and Crown on Nantucket. Their bouncers were beating the living piss out of a guy into my brand new pickup truck and smashing his head into every panel.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-mm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But so who, you know, bouncers might not be justified but regardless, you know, just kind of talking about a standing guillotine choke here.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: Why grabbing the dick and twists for self-defense doesn&#39;t work. Grab his dick and twist it. So I mean</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Now first off, the guy might like it.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah, like some people call that foreplay.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I... you know, I don&#39;t know. In there. Hey guys, we&#39;re recording. Sorry about that. You know, running an active gym</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: job.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... trying to make a living.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But-... you know, grab it, you know, that can hurt a lot. We prefer to, I like to do an open hand strike.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I don&#39;t I don&#39;t, this coming up and whoa, that, like full power.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: What happens if you miss?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, you can miss, that&#39;s why we have, you know, we build in that elbow strike</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: our technique,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: Choke right now. While he knows he&#39;s choking me, I&#39;m gonna go grab his genitals. What&#39;s gonna happen to my face is I&#39;m gonna meet the mat. Boom,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Now, a good skilled wrestler might now sprawl</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and do that. I&#39;ve had nobody do that. You know, you go, &#34;Hey,&#34; been lucky, whatever with people coming to my gym and going, &#34;All right, test the technique.&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: &#34;Does it work?&#34; But yeah, you are, if that guy sprawls out, yes,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: He knows magical stuff, right? Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, and, and I see kids grab people and none of the kids</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: do it.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: sprawl out. So again, that&#39;s what we&#39;re talking</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It&#39;s</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... you know.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Teaching the 20% to get</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: Okay, now I&#39;m even more trouble &#39;cause I&#39;m in a turtle position. Another bright idea was punching. Same kind of idea. I&#39;m not gonna have enough pressure here to punch and if I do hit him, it&#39;s gonna piss him off.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: He&#39;s standing away from him pretty far.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Here and this guy is sprawling out his hips.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: He&#39;s got an elbow strike because of that on there.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: But again, he&#39;s a trained fighter</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, he&#39;s on purpose, he&#39;s got some space</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: you know, talking about that punch, right? I think there was something else I was gonna say on that. Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: ... the pressure here to punch and if I do hit him, it&#39;s gonna piss him off.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Oh, he&#39;s already pissed off. I believe. He&#39;s already grabbing their heels.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Grabbed by their head.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I mean, pissed</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Maybe, maybe more angry.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, more whatever may be, but, you know when you hit somebody, we&#39;re not thinking it&#39;s gonna end the fight in Krav Maga. I&#39;ve got a whole video on Krav Maga people being stupid, thinking one strike is gonna end it. I just want to disrupt his nervous system for a split second so I can do something else.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: Third request, knee him in the balls. How the hell am</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: yeah, that&#39;s just, I don&#39;t know who thinks that you&#39;re gonna knee him in the balls.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Or grab them whatever it.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: Another was she&#39;s 6&#39;5&#34;.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah, if, if some Krav Maga person is saying that, they don&#39;t know what they&#39;re talking about.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 3: I can&#39;t get over his shoulder. I&#39;m gonna grab his elbow, come inside, throw. Now, there&#39;s four other bouncers</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Now, that&#39;s a great throw.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It&#39;s fantastic.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You know? But hitting your knee on the street, man, might not be the greatest. Might hurt tomorrow, you know, hey, as long as I&#39;m home and it&#39;s hurting, but</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: The grapple invite.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: To teach somebody to go to the ground, now you&#39;re forcing to go to the ground. Actually, big Jeff wasn&#39;t in class six, I was gonna film it for the podcast to have big Jeff do it to little Krissy.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and see how Krissy</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: big Jeff.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: just being a little bit heavy as she drops down</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: That&#39;s what</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... and training. You know, we&#39;re talking the average person. Now, we want to get people better and better.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: That&#39;s right.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Before we have to wrap up, before the noon class my wife, of course Did you see the video in Minnesota?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yes,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: And I said, &#34;No, Josh talked about it,&#34; but I was actually trying to work and I had to keep Josh</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... because I do pay him and if I let him go off the rails.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I&#39;d never go off the rails.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yes, you would.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Just keep going, keep going.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: assist you. If you&#39;ve seen that video, I didn&#39;t bring it up here, the, some of the stuff she was saying, she was passing him by and here&#39;s what I told my wife, &#34;Who&#39;s to say he&#39;s, she&#39;s not gonna put it in reverse and run him or multiple law enforcement officers over?&#34;</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Just &#39;cause I lunge at you with a knife and I miss, you&#39;re outta the way. Do you need to shoot me? Absolutely, in my opinion.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Like, I don&#39;t care if you lunged and fell six, seven feet away.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: What if she missed? Now what are we talking about?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: the the knife or my scenario or the real scenario.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: The real scenario. What if she missed? She was trying, what if she missed?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: She went at him, she might, who knows?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: I don&#39;t</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: People are dumb and you did something and you fucked around and you found out. You, you know, you&#39;re doing</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Right.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... bullshit you&#39;re doing and you&#39;re jeopardizing somebody&#39;s life.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Right? And I, this guy wants to go home to his family, I guess he had some other incident my wife said that&#39;s come up on the internet. I didn&#39;t research it, but right there in that instant, I don&#39;t care, I, he&#39;s protecting himself, she&#39;s coming at him, she&#39;s showing deadly intent. He was in front of the vehicle.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: She kind of, he gets out of the way a little bit, maybe she&#39;s kinda missing. I, it was tough, but man, let me get in a</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and you stand</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Right.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: and have me come at you.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: That&#39;s exactly right, like</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: You stupid internet people.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Do you know</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: All right, now I&#39;m getting really fired up.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: ... it is when a vehicle comes at you and they just don&#39;t see you by accident? And all it</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. Never mind</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: you&#39;re</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: trying to detain</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: for whatever reason they were there, but there were multiple law enforcement on the scene.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: And let&#39;s say a 2000 pound vehicle just barely clips, you know how hard that&#39;s going to hurt you?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I mean, you could just be disabled for life.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Fly, nevermind.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Just from a clip.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: That she showed deadly intent.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. And that&#39;s something we focus here on, at Rocky Mountain Self Defense and Fitness. Hope you guys enjoyed this if you want more, you know, subscribe. We got a subscribe for three</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Same.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: ... you get a free suck less t-shirt. You know, we&#39;re just trying to be better here and again, I can&#39;t say it enough, I have the utmost respect for anybody that&#39;s doing any martial art but our specialty is self defense and we&#39;re really just trying to kind of do, do a little</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: maybe on false, miss, I hate the frigging word, guys.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: But it&#39;s just taking things out of context.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah,</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: What was your big word?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Conflating two different things. He was taking a really advanced skill and conflating it with something that is not for the lay person. Assuming that those two skills would work together for everybody and they don&#39;t because I&#39;ve gotta teach a 20 year old kid how to do that who&#39;s never done it, right?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: A 40 year old, a 50 year old</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: A 60.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: that doesn&#39;t have any skill.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Yeah, that&#39;s just the thing and then it&#39;s just conflating and we&#39;re not attacking, we just want to debate it because that may not be the best thing.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: We&#39;re all about open debate.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, testing techniques and there&#39;s tons of great that work out there and just trying to stay in that self defense context is so huge.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: It is.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: so huge. It&#39;s</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: conflate.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: all about going home safe. Look at that, I worked in your big word for you &#39;cause you&#39;re the smart one. All right, guys, thanks for joining us. We&#39;ll talk to you guys next month, I guess, or check out, you know, a short or anything.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Or just anything, what else?</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: I don&#39;t know. Help us, help us out.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 2: Teaser videos.</p><p><br></p><p>Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, Josh teased, that&#39;s awesome.</p>]]></description>
                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;There’s a lot of martial arts content online that looks impressive—but taken out of context, it can confuse people fast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode of &lt;em&gt;The John Hallett Podcast&lt;/em&gt;, we break down one of the biggest misconceptions in self-defense training: the belief that any system—Krav Maga included—can magically neutralize a highly trained fighter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That’s not reality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If someone has years of boxing, wrestling, or BJJ experience, and you’ve been training for six months, you’re already behind. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling fantasy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What Krav Maga is designed to do is far more honest—and far more useful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It focuses on teaching the &lt;strong&gt;20% of skills that solve about 80% of real-world problems&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Awareness&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;De-escalation&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gross-motor, high-percentage movements&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Decision-making under stress&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;That matters because most real-world attacks aren’t clean, technical, or fair. They’re chaotic. Emotional. Close. And often involve people with &lt;strong&gt;little to no formal training&lt;/strong&gt;—not elite competitors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We also talk about how social media creates false comparisons:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Competition techniques shown as “self-defense”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Advanced movements taught to beginners&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Videos designed to “debunk” other systems by changing the context&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;That’s not education. That’s confusion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Self-defense isn’t about winning exchanges or proving superiority. It’s about using the &lt;strong&gt;right tool for the right moment&lt;/strong&gt;—or better yet, avoiding the fight entirely when possible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One example we discuss: a training scenario where de-escalation was the correct answer—but a student defaulted to striking simply because they were “in range.” That choice escalated a situation that didn’t need to become violent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That’s a training failure—not a technique failure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The takeaway is simple:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Context matters&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Probability matters&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Principles matter more than flashy techniques&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;And most of all, &lt;strong&gt;how you train is how you default under stress&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If your training ignores awareness, escalation control, and decision-making, no amount of technique will save you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🎧 &lt;strong&gt;Listen to the full episode for the full breakdown, examples, and real talk.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Podcast Transcript 1.10.25&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Hey, everybody. Welcome back. I&amp;#39;m John Hallett, and joined with me is Josh Hammerling. How you guys doing? Been a little bit since we recorded a podcast. Today, we&amp;#39;re talking about this and that. I had some other things on my mind, but we&amp;#39;re gonna stick to I hate to use the word&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: and, you know, some of that kinda thing, but there is so much there on the internet, that people put out videos and it&amp;#39;s just out of context, you know. We, Josh and I watched a couple videos out there, and there&amp;#39;s some great stuff. I always sometimes say, &amp;#34;Look, if you just specialize in one thing, yeah, you&amp;#39;re gonna kick my butt at it.&amp;#34; Like I am not as strong as I could be for my body weight if I just focused on strength, you know. I wanna be all around good and prepared, and I see a lot of competition self-defense martial arts out there talking about, you know, some of these worst case scenarios for them against a skilled fighter. And that&amp;#39;s not what&amp;#39;s gonna happen in a common street attack. If you get attacked by somebody that specializes in something, you&amp;#39;re in trouble already.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Especially as a low level beginner, and that&amp;#39;s just reality. I mean, we&amp;#39;re very upfront with our students, like you gotta put in time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, just because you&amp;#39;re doing a self-defense system and you&amp;#39;ve been training it six months, you know, great. You got six months of training. But somebody could come after you that&amp;#39;s got, you know, two years of training.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And they&amp;#39;re gonna be better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: So And people always wanna be better, you know. I was talking to a guy this week, you know, &amp;#34;I&amp;#39;m not that good on the ground.&amp;#34; like, &amp;#34;You&amp;#39;re not good at stand up either.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: &amp;#34;You&amp;#39;re not good at this or that.&amp;#34; It&amp;#39;s just slow, steady work. And what we&amp;#39;re talking about in Krav Maga is, you know, especially at the basic level, of course we wanna expand and we wanna get better, but what&amp;#39;s so... The misconception so many times on Krav Maga is that it&amp;#39;s the end all, be all against somebody that is a high level&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... of, you know, whatever it is. Wrestler, BJJ, boxer, right? You&amp;#39;re not gonna outbox a skilled boxer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: No. I&amp;#39;ve tried.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: That&amp;#39;s right. As a beginner. That is just the reality. What Krav Maga really tries to get beginners at is, we&amp;#39;re gonna teach you 20% of the fight that&amp;#39;s gonna get you ... 80% of the time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know? It&amp;#39;s kinda the opposite of how you should eat. The 80/20 rule. 80% of the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... eat right. And you&amp;#39;ve gotta build on that, right? Even if you&amp;#39;re like 50/50. You&amp;#39;re, you&amp;#39;re upping your odds, and that&amp;#39;s all just in training. And I see a lot of videos that, you know, are taken out of context, whether it&amp;#39;s Krav Maga person, self-defense person, and you can make different things look bad no matter what. You know? Sometimes people in self-defense world will make a technique that some of the other practitioner style is doing and make it look bad.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. It&amp;#39;s, that&amp;#39;s just, you know, playing to the hits and all ... type of stuff on social media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah, and then, like, trying to expect people to be able to pull off advanced techniques when they&amp;#39;re lower belts for self-defense, and like they&amp;#39;re incorporating it into whatever they do, it just kinda does a disservice to people that, are trying to learn how to defend themselves, because the, the average person can&amp;#39;t pull off some crazy moves I&amp;#39;ve seen out there that people apply to self-defense. And there&amp;#39;s so much going on. I I mean, when I first started with you, I barely knew where to put my hands, let alone how to grab somebody and do something, right? It just... you gave me enough to start getting to where I needed to go, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: And kind what you&amp;#39;re talking about there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: It&amp;#39;s trying to be well-rounded.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, a little bit of this, and, you know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And, you know, Krav Maga is definitely added, especially here, but I know my instructor and other friends of mine like to add more ground because more people are&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: more ground fighting and grappling than, you know, the decades where Karate Kid and Jean-Claude Van&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: were super popular, and more people were doing that type of stuff. You know, you gotta shift, &amp;#39;cause that&amp;#39;s what we&amp;#39;re talking about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Self-defense. Like what, what&amp;#39;s the greatest probability this is gonna happen to somebody in the street? And for the most part, you know, you look at just common street fights, what are that... What&amp;#39;s that person doing?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, they&amp;#39;re not highly&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah, no.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... if it&amp;#39;s a highly skilled person that gets you, you&amp;#39;re in trouble.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: You&amp;#39;re in&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Like I&amp;#39;m not&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, Eric my BJJ coach, you know, I&amp;#39;m not gonna... I mean, he&amp;#39;s bigger than me, whatever. You know, you&amp;#39;re like I can&amp;#39;t go against him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: If somebody specializes, just like I&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... you know, if you put John just specializing in strength and then John that&amp;#39;s trying to be all rounded,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... you know, all things equal, yeah, John that just specializes in strength, he&amp;#39;s gonna be stronger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I&amp;#39;m not gonna be able to compete with him because that&amp;#39;s his specialty. And that&amp;#39;s the other confusion on Krav Maga, we&amp;#39;re trying to be well rounded.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: sure. We... lots of different things. If, if you only do one particular kind of... I, don&amp;#39;t say this again. Like in self-defense you can&amp;#39;t kinda specialize in just one thing because you don&amp;#39;t know what&amp;#39;s being thrown at you. It&amp;#39;s so random at times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Well,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Like have to have my hands. I have to have some ground.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Well, and you have to have the awareness skills&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: you know, a competition fight you know, isn&amp;#39;t looking for a guy reaching for a knife. I&amp;#39;m sorry, guys. That&amp;#39;s just the way it is. Like how you train is how you fight, and if you&amp;#39;re just caught up in that, you&amp;#39;re gonna miss other things. It was like I&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: We had some beginners in the class, and I was like, &amp;#34;Here&amp;#39;s a red belt in Krav Maga, and look.&amp;#34;Situation was parking lot, you know, guy&amp;#39;s mad at you, he hit the car, and I&amp;#39;m kind of, you know, in her space, but I&amp;#39;m trying to look for her, and the drill was deescalation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: That&amp;#39;s all I want you to do. Attacker&amp;#39;s not showing any signs of attacks or grabbing or, you know, threatening, you know, gestures. They&amp;#39;re just mad.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And she kicked me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Oof.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And I went, &amp;#34;Okay, that&amp;#39;s her call.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: to beginners. I&amp;#39;m like, &amp;#34;Krav Maga people are bad at this a lot the times. You just started a fight.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: &amp;#34;Could you have deescalated?&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And that&amp;#39;s the problem. You&amp;#39;re now looking, like, okay, I&amp;#39;m in front kick range. Well, great. It wasn&amp;#39;t necessarily the right thing. Maybe that&amp;#39;s your tactics. I&amp;#39;m gonna say if that&amp;#39;s what you felt you had to do, go ahead, but let&amp;#39;s think about did you need to kick him?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Could you have gotten around?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Did you use the right tool?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: yeah, did you use the right tool? That type of thing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure. Sure, exactly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, it&amp;#39;s really tough.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: But, okay, do you see people out there that try to start confusing stuff that would be the right tool? Like, I, I mean,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: The right tool?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah. Let&amp;#39;s say, like,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Are there people out there that would say this tool is better than this one because we&amp;#39;ve done it this way for years and years and years? But it&amp;#39;s a super hard thing to do, right? Like some of the stuff we do is just clearing the neck, and it&amp;#39;s a simple move &amp;#39;cause it&amp;#39;s lot of high gross motor skills. But when you start adding complexity, I mean, the average lay student can&amp;#39;t even grasp it. And, like, the self-defense for, like a preeminent let&amp;#39;s say, just a like a kung fu guy would be different than somebody else. And they&amp;#39;re, they&amp;#39;re... Or even, like, the competition stuff they do, like, is it, is it the same kind of tool that they&amp;#39;re using in their sport that you&amp;#39;re gonna use in self-defense? And I guess there might be some gap, but for the most part, a lot of the tools used&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: where you gotta follow the principles of Krav Maga.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: did that, you know... Is that taking it to the ground? Is it, you know, building off of instinct, a principle? You know, there&amp;#39;s tons of great things where like, &amp;#34;Yeah, that&amp;#39;s good, but it&amp;#39;s breaking this self-defense or Krav Maga principle.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, come behind me and put me in an armbar choke. You know, get around, go around, go.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I&amp;#39;m coming, I&amp;#39;m coming, coming, I&amp;#39;m coming.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Don&amp;#39;t rush and kill yourself. Like, I saw a guy, you know, do a throw from here. Now, I&amp;#39;m not at the end of the lever here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And if I have this arm injured, you know, this arm, we&amp;#39;re trying to, you know, pull down at the end of the lever and punch our shoulder in there, versus this is instinctive but this hand&amp;#39;s doing nothing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Right? If I... And I&amp;#39;m smaller, right? I wanna be, you know, following some principles. And you can see, I like to double up that hand and hey, under stress, I&amp;#39;m gonna be glad to be here. But when I train, I&amp;#39;m going like this, bum, and I&amp;#39;m doubling up on that hand, and it&amp;#39;s training this hand to go as deep as I can at the end of the lever. So, you know, I can I&amp;#39;ve seen videos like that. I think we saw... I I think it was after you were watching with me. You know, guys doing that, maybe going into a throw, but, hey, if I&amp;#39;m smaller, we&amp;#39;re trying to follow principles. And I think you&amp;#39;re getting sidetracked.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: A confused.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And it was funny there was something else I was thinking of when you were talking there, and I totally lost my train of thought letting you talk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I should&amp;#39;ve cut you off.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: You didn&amp;#39;t&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: shouldn&amp;#39;t hung you up as usual.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: figured asking questions like I already knew.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: it&amp;#39;s pretty... I forget what I was totally thinking about when you were in there. But you&amp;#39;ve got a lot of martial arts, and a lot of things can work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But we&amp;#39;re also, you&amp;#39;re also training a low-level person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: you gotta bring them up to speed, and I see a lot of videos out there that just really kind of bad-mouth or make, you know, Krav Maga or self-defense look bad when they&amp;#39;re talking about competition stuff.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And that&amp;#39;s just different.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And if a competition person grabs you this way, they&amp;#39;re gonna do X. What I see common people&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Uh-huh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: you know, and kids, it&amp;#39;s not the high-level person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: They&amp;#39;re not doing an advanced move on you. They don&amp;#39;t know to do X, Y and&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: whatever it may be, in whatever context. But they&amp;#39;ll put the Krav Maga technique and make it look bad.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But they&amp;#39;re all... You&amp;#39;re going... Now you&amp;#39;re facing the worst case scenario of somebody high-level.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. You&amp;#39;re going to lose. I&amp;#39;m sorry, that&amp;#39;s reality. And competition guys know two people get in the ring, one person loses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. That&amp;#39;s good.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: reality. Not making a technique look bad, and maybe sending somebody to the wrong martial art. Like, what are you looking at? We have people come in and they kinda know from our website too, like, we have less and less, that we&amp;#39;re a self-defense gym. We&amp;#39;re not a competition gym.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Oh,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: If you&amp;#39;re looking to compete, that&amp;#39;s not what we&amp;#39;re doing. We&amp;#39;re self-defense. That&amp;#39;s what we do.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And people get confused on going to X, Y and Z martial art and going, &amp;#34;Oh, this is all about self-defense, because I saw a video and they&amp;#39;re they&amp;#39;re self-defense.&amp;#34; But are they really?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: There are, you know... There can be good crossover and good instructors that teach both.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But if you&amp;#39;re in a competition-focused gym mainly, you know, are you really&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: the best self-defense that you could be getting?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure. &amp;#39;cause from their perspective, you&amp;#39;re working on competition. Like, you&amp;#39;re working on getting into the ring, you&amp;#39;re working&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Weight classes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: All that stuff,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. You know, it&amp;#39;s really tough.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Right, known variables.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Even class is known. Hey, we&amp;#39;re gonna spar today. You know you&amp;#39;re showing up to sparring class.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Right.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: There&amp;#39;s mental prep that&amp;#39;s goes on. Yeah, and what I&amp;#39;m thinking&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: yeah, is that, that&amp;#39;s a very kind of narrow percentage of people who wanna go to that competition realm and style.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I don&amp;#39;t know. I wouldn&amp;#39;t say narrow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Because&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I... You know, you&amp;#39;re suddenly&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: No, I mean, it&amp;#39;s just... I don&amp;#39;t know the, the statistics on there. I wouldn&amp;#39;t... I hate to say narrow again, &amp;#39;cause you&amp;#39;re like, &amp;#34;Misinformation.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure, what about&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Or or false information all that crap. More majority of people are never going to meet that, kind of thing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: some, some guys, like, &amp;#34;I just wanna compete and beat up other guys.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Sure,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: stroke my ego.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Dude, you know, it&amp;#39;s what people are looking for. And that&amp;#39;s why I wanted to bring up this topic. You know, it was I&amp;#39;m gonna forget his name. Brent Contreras the Glute, The Glute Guy, and he he does some great videos, compliments some people. If we have time, &amp;#39;cause we&amp;#39;re behind, I have a video, and I, I think the guy&amp;#39;s BJJ is phenomenal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: That&amp;#39;s&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: But I think a little bit of it is questionable on the average person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... am I gonna&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: a 40-year-old housewife that&amp;#39;s never done anything or hasn&amp;#39;t done anything since high school a move like this, and is it breaking&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: self-defense, of did I take that fight to the ground on purpose? I think they do a good job of making the technique look bad, of, like, hit him in the groin, and it&amp;#39;s kind of a funny video at the start that he clips in. But there&amp;#39;s so much that, that are out here,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I just kind of wanted talk about people that are saying, you know, or misrepresenting their sport to make other things look bad and confusing the general public.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I think that&amp;#39;s huge. It&amp;#39;s been a huge thing since 2020, and I think a whole lot of it was crap, right? That&amp;#39;s why I hate to use the word misinformation. You&amp;#39;re confusing people. Are you out of context to what the situation is? It&amp;#39;s like when I talk about the rolling defense in Krav Maga. Going, it&amp;#39;s somebody throwing something straight at you. If the fight geometry gets off and now that angle of that kick is it might be a front kick, but the angle is coming off. Now you&amp;#39;re gonna use the other hand instead of the standard right hand or back side in your rolling defense when somebody&amp;#39;s straight at you. You start taking things out of context, like, &amp;#34;It doesn&amp;#39;t work.&amp;#34; Well, it&amp;#39;s out of context.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: angle is off. You know, people confuse that stuff. Or, &amp;#34;Hey, it&amp;#39;s not working.&amp;#34; And you&amp;#39;re going, &amp;#34;Yeah, that&amp;#39;s the fight.&amp;#34; You&amp;#39;re trying to do X, Y, and Z technique.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Keep saying that today. And they&amp;#39;ve they&amp;#39;ve changed the fight.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: it&amp;#39;s different. You&amp;#39;re trying to&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: and they&amp;#39;ve now just shifted their weight as the attacker. And now it&amp;#39;s out of context.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Right.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: It&amp;#39;s a really hard thing,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: And they make a video that drives you nuts about it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, it&amp;#39;s like, &amp;#34;Come on.&amp;#34; And that&amp;#39;s where, you know, hey, great if you do both. We just kind of focus on that self-defense aspect.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And I think it can be hard, &amp;#39;cause even, I haven&amp;#39;t competed but I love sparring.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: And you can get caught up in sparring.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Like I probably said it on the podcast. Like one time, you know, when I really started doing BJJ, that I was up but I went back down, and I landed on the guy&amp;#39;s accidental elbow. I just came into his elbow that he was just there. It wasn&amp;#39;t like he threw an elbow strike and I bit off half my tongue. And in the ER, I&amp;#39;m like, &amp;#34;Why did I go back down?&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, I was up in a way, but because I was grappling and thinking grappling and playing around, I went down and stayed down.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Oh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, and that was, you know, that was 20 20 plus years ago now. You can get caught up in just stand up sparring&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: you know, this different stuff. And that&amp;#39;s why we continue to try to evolve at RMSDF.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know, Clear Sky is our online portal guys.

Are, did you clock out?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I&amp;#39;m an employee?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Oh, is that check going to somebody different? That goes directly to your wife &amp;#39;cause you can&amp;#39;t handle it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I&amp;#39;m out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: He doesn&amp;#39;t want to mess with his wife.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I think he&amp;#39;s more scared of his wife than me and she&amp;#39;s like four foot two.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: You&amp;#39;re the only one that&amp;#39;s knocked me out, though. Well, came close.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Came close. It wasn&amp;#39;t rocking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: know. I blocked with my face. But again, it was me blocking with my face and not ... not&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: All right. I&amp;#39;ve got the utmost respect. What did we do to our screen here?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I don&amp;#39;t know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: know&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Oh, is that stupid banner?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I can&amp;#39;t see.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: what I&amp;#39;m doing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I I don&amp;#39;t even need glasses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Okay, what&amp;#39;s going on?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Remember your little screens over there?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: took over. I know, but what happened I don&amp;#39;t know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It&amp;#39;s down at the bottom right there. Right there. Whoa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I know it&amp;#39;s right here somewhere, but no, it&amp;#39;s not scrolling. Okay. Oh, get rid of that. There, but it still didn&amp;#39;t change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: You&amp;#39;re scaring me. Like, there are days.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: You just made it bigger. That&amp;#39;s okay. Look, it&amp;#39;s back. Remember, and it&amp;#39;s that little arrow right there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was different a second ago.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It was.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: See, &amp;#39;cause of that whatever took over.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It&amp;#39;s okay. You gonna set this up for us?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. So, all right and I can just let him talk. Utmost Respect, he kicked my ass BJJ all day. He&amp;#39;s got a great channel. I watch his videos. He&amp;#39;s got some good stuff out there. If you&amp;#39;re just thinking just BJJ, and this one&amp;#39;s, like, kind of, like, I think he says at the end, like, if a bouncer grabs you in this position, and it&amp;#39;s something to think about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Oh, actually I wanted to talk about the Minnesota thing. That&amp;#39;s when we were talking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: In there, so, you know, again, context, you know, was that bouncer justified to grab you? All that kind of stuff is what we talk about. Maybe they weren&amp;#39;t. Bouncers do stupid stuff all the time,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Oh my.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I talk about I was just telling the story about the Rose and Crown on Nantucket. Their bouncers were beating the living piss out of a guy into my brand new pickup truck and smashing his head into every panel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-mm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But so who, you know, bouncers might not be justified but regardless, you know, just kind of talking about a standing guillotine choke here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: Why grabbing the dick and twists for self-defense doesn&amp;#39;t work. Grab his dick and twist it. So I mean&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Now first off, the guy might like it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah, like some people call that foreplay.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I... you know, I don&amp;#39;t know. In there. Hey guys, we&amp;#39;re recording. Sorry about that. You know, running an active gym&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: job.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... trying to make a living.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But-... you know, grab it, you know, that can hurt a lot. We prefer to, I like to do an open hand strike.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I don&amp;#39;t I don&amp;#39;t, this coming up and whoa, that, like full power.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: What happens if you miss?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, you can miss, that&amp;#39;s why we have, you know, we build in that elbow strike&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: our technique,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: Choke right now. While he knows he&amp;#39;s choking me, I&amp;#39;m gonna go grab his genitals. What&amp;#39;s gonna happen to my face is I&amp;#39;m gonna meet the mat. Boom,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Now, a good skilled wrestler might now sprawl&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: and do that. I&amp;#39;ve had nobody do that. You know, you go, &amp;#34;Hey,&amp;#34; been lucky, whatever with people coming to my gym and going, &amp;#34;All right, test the technique.&amp;#34;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: &amp;#34;Does it work?&amp;#34; But yeah, you are, if that guy sprawls out, yes,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: He knows magical stuff, right? Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, and, and I see kids grab people and none of the kids&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: do it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: sprawl out. So again, that&amp;#39;s what we&amp;#39;re talking&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It&amp;#39;s&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... you know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Teaching the 20% to get&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: Okay, now I&amp;#39;m even more trouble &amp;#39;cause I&amp;#39;m in a turtle position. Another bright idea was punching. Same kind of idea. I&amp;#39;m not gonna have enough pressure here to punch and if I do hit him, it&amp;#39;s gonna piss him off.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: He&amp;#39;s standing away from him pretty far.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Here and this guy is sprawling out his hips.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: He&amp;#39;s got an elbow strike because of that on there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: But again, he&amp;#39;s a trained fighter&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, he&amp;#39;s on purpose, he&amp;#39;s got some space&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: you know, talking about that punch, right? I think there was something else I was gonna say on that. Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: ... the pressure here to punch and if I do hit him, it&amp;#39;s gonna piss him off.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Oh, he&amp;#39;s already pissed off. I believe. He&amp;#39;s already grabbing their heels.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Grabbed by their head.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I mean, pissed&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Maybe, maybe more angry.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, more whatever may be, but, you know when you hit somebody, we&amp;#39;re not thinking it&amp;#39;s gonna end the fight in Krav Maga. I&amp;#39;ve got a whole video on Krav Maga people being stupid, thinking one strike is gonna end it. I just want to disrupt his nervous system for a split second so I can do something else.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: Third request, knee him in the balls. How the hell am&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: yeah, that&amp;#39;s just, I don&amp;#39;t know who thinks that you&amp;#39;re gonna knee him in the balls.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Or grab them whatever it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: Another was she&amp;#39;s 6&amp;#39;5&amp;#34;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah, if, if some Krav Maga person is saying that, they don&amp;#39;t know what they&amp;#39;re talking about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 3: I can&amp;#39;t get over his shoulder. I&amp;#39;m gonna grab his elbow, come inside, throw. Now, there&amp;#39;s four other bouncers&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Now, that&amp;#39;s a great throw.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It&amp;#39;s fantastic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You know? But hitting your knee on the street, man, might not be the greatest. Might hurt tomorrow, you know, hey, as long as I&amp;#39;m home and it&amp;#39;s hurting, but&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: The grapple invite.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: To teach somebody to go to the ground, now you&amp;#39;re forcing to go to the ground.

You know, we&amp;#39;re talking the average person.

Do you need to shoot me? Absolutely, in my opinion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Like, I don&amp;#39;t care if you lunged and fell six, seven feet away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: What if she missed? Now what are we talking about?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: the the knife or my scenario or the real scenario.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: The real scenario. What if she missed? She was trying, what if she missed?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: She went at him, she might, who knows?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: I don&amp;#39;t&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: People are dumb and you did something and you fucked around and you found out. You, you know, you&amp;#39;re doing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Right.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... bullshit you&amp;#39;re doing and you&amp;#39;re jeopardizing somebody&amp;#39;s life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Right? And I, this guy wants to go home to his family, I guess he had some other incident my wife said that&amp;#39;s come up on the internet. I didn&amp;#39;t research it, but right there in that instant, I don&amp;#39;t care, I, he&amp;#39;s protecting himself, she&amp;#39;s coming at him, she&amp;#39;s showing deadly intent. He was in front of the vehicle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: She kind of, he gets out of the way a little bit, maybe she&amp;#39;s kinda missing. I, it was tough, but man, let me get in a&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: and you stand&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Right.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: and have me come at you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: That&amp;#39;s exactly right, like&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: You stupid internet people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Do you know&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: All right, now I&amp;#39;m getting really fired up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: ... it is when a vehicle comes at you and they just don&amp;#39;t see you by accident? And all it&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. Never mind&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: you&amp;#39;re&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: trying to detain&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: for whatever reason they were there, but there were multiple law enforcement on the scene.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: And let&amp;#39;s say a 2000 pound vehicle just barely clips, you know how hard that&amp;#39;s going to hurt you?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I mean, you could just be disabled for life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Fly, nevermind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Just from a clip.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: That she showed deadly intent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. And that&amp;#39;s something we focus here on, at Rocky Mountain Self Defense and Fitness. Hope you guys enjoyed this if you want more, you know, subscribe. We got a subscribe for three&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Same.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: ... you get a free suck less t-shirt. You know, we&amp;#39;re just trying to be better here and again, I can&amp;#39;t say it enough, I have the utmost respect for anybody that&amp;#39;s doing any martial art but our specialty is self defense and we&amp;#39;re really just trying to kind of do, do a little&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: maybe on false, miss, I hate the frigging word, guys.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: But it&amp;#39;s just taking things out of context.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: What was your big word?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Conflating two different things. He was taking a really advanced skill and conflating it with something that is not for the lay person. Assuming that those two skills would work together for everybody and they don&amp;#39;t because I&amp;#39;ve gotta teach a 20 year old kid how to do that who&amp;#39;s never done it, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: A 40 year old, a 50 year old&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: A 60.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: that doesn&amp;#39;t have any skill.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Yeah, that&amp;#39;s just the thing and then it&amp;#39;s just conflating and we&amp;#39;re not attacking, we just want to debate it because that may not be the best thing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: We&amp;#39;re all about open debate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, testing techniques and there&amp;#39;s tons of great that work out there and just trying to stay in that self defense context is so huge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: It is.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: so huge. It&amp;#39;s&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: conflate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: all about going home safe. Look at that, I worked in your big word for you &amp;#39;cause you&amp;#39;re the smart one. All right, guys, thanks for joining us. We&amp;#39;ll talk to you guys next month, I guess, or check out, you know, a short or anything.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Or just anything, what else?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: I don&amp;#39;t know. Help us, help us out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 2: Teaser videos.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, Josh teased, that&amp;#39;s awesome.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

Title: Beyond the Basics: Training at the Advanced Level
Hosts: John Hallett with Josh Hammerling

Summary

John and Josh wrap up the black belt journey series with a look at advanced training and earning the black belt. From the pressure of instructor courses, to staying game-ready as a gym owner, to the nerves of testing under John Whitman, this episode gets into what it really takes to go beyond novice and into mastery.

Along the way, John also dives into the corruption of Big Pharma, the future of peptides, and why laziness is a bigger enemy than any opponent. Expect unfiltered truth, hard lessons, and a reminder that belts mean less than the grind you put in daily.

Advanced training expectations &amp; intensity vs technical refinement

Black belt test nerves &amp; the importance of mindset

The role of instructor training and staying sharp as a gym owner

Continuous improvement: “good enough” is never enough

Big Pharma corruption, peptides, and longevity talk

Title: The Grind Zone: Surviving the Intermediate Stage
Hosts: John Hallett with Josh Hammerling

Summary

Intermediate belts are where the honeymoon ends and the work begins. John breaks down plateaus, mental reps, and the difference between chasing numbers vs respecting the movement. From shadowboxing in hallways and job sites to Bas Rutten audio rounds, this episode shows what it really takes to move from “I’ve got it” to I’m actually getting good. Plus: why many quit here, how coaching accelerates learning, and why “good for your belt” isn’t the same as excellent.

Key Moments / Topics

The plateau: why progress feels slower after early belt jumps

“Good for your belt” vs true quality technique

Mental reps: visualizing like sport (football/baseball analogies)

Bas Rutten audio rounds, heavy bag &amp; shadowboxing routines

Carryover from Taekwondo → refining Krav Maga strikes

Teaching as training: reps you get by coaching others

Dunning–Kruger danger zone at mid-belts

“Respect the movement,” not just the clock or rep target

Why removing strict rep numbers from advanced belt reqs may be healthier

Learning Highlights

Consistency beats novelty: show up, get reps, fight the plateau.

Quality &gt; Count: don’t chase the spreadsheet; chase the skill.

Mental Reps Work: visualize the movement, timing, and next steps.

Teach to Learn: coaching exposes gaps and locks in fundamentals.

Slow is smooth: feel positions, fix errors, then add speed/power.

Who This Is For

Mid-belt students feeling stuck

Instructors mentoring intermediates

Athletes crossing over from other arts

Anyone tempted to “program hop” when the grind hits

Pull Quotes

“It’s not respecting the movement when you’re just racing the clock.”

“Good for a green belt isn’t the same as good.”

“Put in the reps—shadowbox, bag work, mental reps—everywhere.”

                <itunes:author>John Hallett</itunes:author>
                <itunes:summary>In Episode 96, John and Josh dive into the mindset battles every student faces—on the mat, in the gym, and in everyday life. From self-doubt during sparring to procrastination, negative self-talk, and the desire for shortcuts, this episode is a raw and relatable discussion on personal growth and what it really takes to earn mastery in martial arts.

They also explore the reality of time investment required to hit expert-level training hours—whether it’s 5,000 or 10,000 hours—and how that compares to the average martial arts schedule. If you’ve ever found yourself saying, “I’ll train tomorrow,” this episode is for you.

🔍 Show Notes – What You’ll Learn:

Why mindset is the real battle—and how to shut down the negative inner voice

How sparring should be mutual, not competitive

The importance of structured slow drills like offense/defense sparring

Why minimum standards are not enough—and what striving for excellence looks like

The 10,000-hour rule for mastery: realistic or unreachable?

Tips to work around injuries and keep training consistently

The importance of routine, discipline, and sustainable progress

Why “I am going to train” beats “I should train” every time

🔑 Favorite Takeaways:

“Sparring is not about domination—it’s about letting your partner work too.”

“You can’t master anything if you’re only training two hours a week.”

“Don’t let that little voice tell you to stop. Tell it to shut up.”

“You’re only as good as your last class. Show up. Give what you can. That’s progress.”

“Advanced techniques are just fundamentals done well under pressure.”

That’s progress.”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“Advanced techniques are just fundamentals done well under pressure.”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;🎧 Listen &amp;amp; Subscribe:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spotify&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&#34;https://open.spotify.com/show/6hDh7OscpVMKLLY8rCvgqs&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://open.spotify.com/show/6hDh7OscpVMKLLY8rCvgqs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Apple Podcasts&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&#34;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-john-hallett-podcast/id1651930801&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-john-hallett-podcast/id1651930801&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Universal Link&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&#34;https://redcircle.com/shows/a982e1e3-972c-4e9f-b369-6b29534df441&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://redcircle.com/shows/a982e1e3-972c-4e9f-b369-6b29534df441&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;YouTube Playlist&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIJr7pPF9el8qfN4mG9p8BxtuPKOpSBVn&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIJr7pPF9el8qfN4mG9p8BxtuPKOpSBVn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content:encoded>

                <itunes:summary>In this vital episode, John Hallett and co-host Josh dive deep into the often overlooked yet essential side of self-defense—first aid and trauma response.

Covering everything from basic wound care to full-scale trauma kits, this episode is a wake-up call for anyone serious about defending life—not just during an attack, but in the chaotic aftermath.

Whether it&#39;s a sprained ankle, a head injury in the gym, or a life-threatening bleed from a violent encounter, you’ll walk away with practical, real-world advice you can apply today. It&#39;s not about fear—it’s about being prepared.

💡 “When you need it, you’re going to NEED it—and there won’t be time to figure it out.”

🔑 What You’ll Learn:
Why first aid must be part of your self-defense plan

The MARCH protocol and how to apply it

Why you should train with your first aid gear, not just carry it

The reality of head injuries, concussions, and how to manage them

Why scene safety and calling 911 come before anything else

How to prepare kids and families to respond calmly in an emergency

🧰 Tools &amp; Tips Covered:
Tourniquets (including soft T options)

Israeli bandages &amp; wound packing

Chest seals and makeshift alternatives

Narcan for opioid emergencies

Boo-boo kits vs. trauma kits

How to build a kit you’ll actually carry

🧠 Why This Matters:
Self-defense is more than fighting. It’s about keeping yourself and others alive when seconds count. Your ability to respond in a medical emergency may save a loved one—or even yourself.

                <itunes:summary>🎙️ The John Hallett Podcast | Episode #93
What To Do Immediately After a Self-Defense Incident
ClearSky Self Defense &amp; Fighting System

After a violent encounter, your actions in the next 5 minutes could determine your legal and personal future. In this episode, John Hallett and co-host Josh break down the critical steps every responsible defender needs to take — immediately.

🔑 Episode Highlights:
Why creating distance and assessing is always step #1

How to properly call 911 (and what not to say)

What details to point out to law enforcement (evidence, cameras, weapons)

Why saying less to police protects you

The simple script to use:
“I was attacked. I defended myself. I want to speak to an attorney before making a full statement.”

Legal and mental aftermath: adrenaline crashes, gaps in memory, and the emotional toll

Why posting online can destroy your case — don’t do it

The importance of having an attorney ready before you need one

Why your training must include post-fight thinking and scanning

This episode also discusses why some of your biggest mistakes must happen in training — not on the street — and why mindset, movement, and the law are inseparable.

📌 Quick-Reference Checklist:
✅ Get safe – move away

📞 Call 911 – &#34;I was attacked. I defended myself. I need help.&#34;

👀 Identify evidence – weapons, cameras, witnesses

🤐 Say less – Ask for your lawyer

😌 Stay calm – Breathe. Don’t confess.

                <description><![CDATA[<p>🔑 Episode Summary:</p><p>In this episode, John and Josh dive into the five key elements of self-defense law—critical knowledge for anyone serious about protecting themselves or their family. These legal pillars form the foundation of any legitimate self-defense claim, and understanding them could mean the difference between freedom and prison.</p><p><br></p><p>⚠️ Disclaimer: John and Josh are not attorneys, but their training insights are based on expert legal resources and real-world application.</p><p><br></p><p>🧱 What You’ll Learn:</p><p>1. Innocence</p><p>You must not start or provoke the fight—verbally or physically. Even aggressive body language can work against you.</p><p><br></p><p>2. Imminence</p><p>The threat must be immediate. You can’t act on threats about tomorrow or vague aggression.</p><p><br></p><p>3. Proportionality</p><p>Your response must match the level of threat. A punch does not justify deadly force unless serious harm is imminent.</p><p><br></p><p>4. Avoidance</p><p>If you can safely escape, do it—especially in front of a jury. You may have the right to stand your ground, but you may still face civil or criminal repercussions.</p><p><br></p><p>5. Reasonableness</p><p>Your actions will be judged against what a “reasonable person” would have done.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;🔑 Episode Summary:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this episode, John and Josh dive into the five key elements of self-defense law—critical knowledge for anyone serious about protecting themselves or their family. These legal pillars form the foundation of any legitimate self-defense claim, and understanding them could mean the difference between freedom and prison.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;⚠️ Disclaimer: John and Josh are not attorneys, but their training insights are based on expert legal resources and real-world application.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🧱 What You’ll Learn:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Innocence&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You must not start or provoke the fight—verbally or physically. Even aggressive body language can work against you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. Imminence&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The threat must be immediate. You can’t act on threats about tomorrow or vague aggression.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. Proportionality&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your response must match the level of threat. A punch does not justify deadly force unless serious harm is imminent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. Avoidance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you can safely escape, do it—especially in front of a jury. You may have the right to stand your ground, but you may still face civil or criminal repercussions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. Reasonableness&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your actions will be judged against what a “reasonable person” would have done. Your mindset, physical condition, and perception all factor in.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;💬 Favorite Quotes:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Please don’t hurt me” beats “Let’s go!”—especially in court.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Imminent doesn’t mean angry words. It means action is about to happen.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“You can’t smash someone with a rock because they hit you with a pillow.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Avoid the fight if you can. Protect others if you must.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Juries ask: Would a reasonable person have done the same thing?”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🧠 Bonus Discussion Topics:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clenched fists as pre-fight indicators&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stand Your Ground vs. Duty to Retreat&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The danger of escalating force too soon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How your perception may be legally relevant&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why it’s critical to train under pressure&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🔗 Mentioned in This Episode:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ClearSky.Training – Online training portal&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;shop.rmsdf.com – Gear &amp;amp; T-Shirts&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Law of Self Defense” by Andrew Branca&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Podcast #87: Situational Awareness Zones&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Podcast #90 (Coming Soon): Legal Degrees of Assault&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🎯 Who This Episode Is For:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Self-defense &amp;amp; firearms students&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Concealed carry permit holders&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Parents protecting their kids&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Martial arts instructors seeking real-world context&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyone serious about legal use of force in violent encounters&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;📌 Subscribe &amp;amp; Support:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube &amp;amp; more&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;👍 Like. 🔁 Share. 💬 Review.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🛡️ Train More.

                <description><![CDATA[<h3>The John Hallett Podcast | Episode #87</h3><p>Welcome back to another episode of <em>The John Hallett Podcast</em>! In Episode 87, we break down one of the most vital concepts in self-defense: <strong>Situational Awareness Zones</strong>.</p><p>Whether you’re a seasoned martial artist or someone just starting their journey, understanding your environment can mean the difference between avoiding danger and walking straight into it. This episode is all about training your awareness like a skill—because it is one.</p><h2>🧠 “You’re Upping Your Chances”</h2><p>Early in the episode, John reflects on a conversation with a beginner student who was discouraged about defending against a larger attacker. His answer was simple and powerful:</p><blockquote>“You’re upping your chances. Nothing’s 100%—but you’re giving yourself a fighting chance.”</blockquote><p>That’s what training is really about. Not perfection. Not guarantees. Just stacking the odds in your favor through preparation and awareness.</p><h2>🟦 Blue Zone – Situational Awareness</h2><p>This is your <strong>default zone</strong> when you’re out in the world.</p><p>You&#39;re calm, but switched on. You’re scanning your surroundings without looking paranoid.</p><p>You’re not expecting a fight—you’re prepared to <strong>recognize a potential threat before it gets close</strong>.</p><h2>🟩 Green Zone – The Action Zone</h2><p>When someone enters your space—maybe a bit too fast, maybe watching you—it’s time to <strong>shift posture and mentally prepare</strong>.</p><p>It’s not go-time yet, but your mind is moving. This is your cue to reposition, plan an exit, or be ready to send a clear command: <em>“Back off.”</em></p><h2>🟨 Yellow Zone – The Combat Zone</h2><p>This is <strong>within striking distance</strong>. The moment where the fight might erupt at any second.</p><p>In this zone, hesitation is dangerous. Your training needs to kick in—striking, blocking, or gaining positional control. As John says:</p><blockquote>“Distance equals time. And here—you’re out of both.”</blockquote><h2>🟥 Red Zone – The Clinch Zone</h2><p>You&#39;re now <strong>chest to chest, inches away</strong> from violence.</p><p>There&#39;s no time to talk, only time to act. Clinch control, elbows, knees—this is full-blown combat, where your survival depends on your ability to <strong>stay calm in chaos</strong>.</p><h2>🎯 The Mission: Dominate the Angles, Control the Fight</h2><p>Every zone has a mindset, a strategy, and tools. The clearer you are on which zone you’re in, the faster you can adapt—and the more likely you are to survive.</p><h2>🎧 Tune In</h2><p>Listen to the full episode for insights, examples, and tactical takeaways:</p><p>🎙️ <em>The John Hallett Podcast #87 – Situational Awareness Zones</em></p><p>📲 Available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube</p><p>🌐 Learn more: <a href="http://www.ClearSky.Training" rel="nofollow">www.ClearSky.Training</a></p><p>Foreign. Hey, everybody. Welcome back. How you doing, Josh? I&#39;m good. How are you? Got my coffee. I&#39;m feeling good. You got your coffee? Yeah, I&#39;m only on one cup of coffee here, so come on. Yeah, I might have to hit pause. So. Been a good week. A lot of new things. Training hard. I got. Just got crushed by big Jeff yesterday. My chest is killing me. No, that&#39;s good. £280 on me or whatever. I don&#39;t know. Right. Oh, it&#39;s tough when you got that big guy on you, man. Yeah, Serious. It just is. Yeah. I was just saying to a beginner in the. In actually, Jeff&#39;s class, Jeff was covering for Ryan today that, you know, sometimes I&#39;m just trying to wear down the big guy. Like, she&#39;s like, I&#39;m not going to be able to defend it. Yeah, you&#39;re upping your chances. When you do self defense, martial arts, whatever it is, you&#39;re upping your chances or survival. Nothing&#39;s 100%, you know, and sometimes people are like, I&#39;m not going to be able to do it. Yeah, you</p><p>might not be able to do it. It&#39;s called winning and losing and somebody being bigger and stronger. But I said, you know, sometimes it&#39;s about not making a mistake and just wearing somebody down until they make a mistake or get too exhausted and it kind of starts to equal things out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it&#39;s true. When you get gassed, you get gassed, right? Yeah, that&#39;s. That&#39;s a tough one when you do. Oh, I guess. Do I have this up on the screen already? You do. In here today we&#39;re talking about situation awareness, so a good topic. You know, just being aware can keep you out of a lot of trouble right from the get go, you know, just avoiding it. Right. I like that you put in there. Don&#39;t. You know, not paranoid. You ever seen that one guy for me? You mind the guy standing there in the line just like doing a crazy surveillance scan every 10 seconds. Yes. That&#39;s what told me like a year ago that you were in, like, I don&#39;t know, a person. Were you. Was she shopping for purses or something?</p><p>Wherever you guys were. The outlet mall. All right. I may have been practicing there. People are like, that dude&#39;s gonna steal something. No, I&#39;m crazy. I did feel like I intimidated everybody in the room. And I was like, well, maybe this isn&#39;t smart. Yeah. So, yeah, even one of our teenagers was just in Paris and he said, I saw a guy got jumped and, you know, Kind of avoided it, you know, seeing it and seeing something happen. Even like in the real world, you know, coming from a small town like Castle Rock, sometimes that, you know, opens up, like, oh, these things do happen. It can happen. I mean, it can happen in Castle Rock. I mean, who knows? You never know. I mean, they just found that dead body off a Larkspur exit. Right. We should talk about that. No, but I mean, again, that&#39;s situational awareness. Even someone seeing that body, like indicators around you that things are going bad, you know, it&#39;s. It&#39;s real. Yeah. Just seeing somebody get jumped. So we&#39;ll jump right into it.</p><p>Blue situation awareness zone. Be aware, not paranoid. Be covertly aware of your surroundings. Distance is fluid and may change in a split second. Right. Just, you know, you&#39;re walking around kind of every day. Should be your state. Shouldn&#39;t be paranoid especially, and jumpy and getting yourself all freaked out. I mean, most of the time, depending on where you&#39;re at, it&#39;s a pretty low probability situation now, you know, you just see somebody get jumped. Okay. You know, this walk in the park or wherever the heck you are just changed. So. Yeah. Up in your level a little bit. Seeing some violence in that area, even if you can avoid it, going, okay, this might not be a good area just in general. So. Yeah. And you don&#39;t know where that thing&#39;s going. Like, it could escalate from a simple assault to somebody pulling a gun or a knife or something weird. And it changes the whole dynamic. So if you can see it before it gets to you, get the heck out. I mean, like, you always tell me the first</p><p>rule is go home safe. Yeah. If you can just get out of there, be fantastic. Right? I mean. Yeah. But, you know, being. Being aware and. And you&#39;re not. Your head in the phone, as everybody says, or just looking around, that helps you out a lot, you know, to avoid getting attacked by that bigger guy, you know? Yeah. Get distance. Get distance. Green in an hour. More of an action zone. Somebody&#39;s close and we&#39;re thinking there is a potential threat there. You know, their posture shift, somebody might be staring at you. You know, you got to be prepared to move or strike if the situation escalates and, you know, they get closer. You know, that 21ft is not that far. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. They cover that in the blink of an eye. Yes. It&#39;s crazy how fast. I mean, a good athlete, somebody younger. Yes. You know, I&#39;ve seen long legs cover three feet a step. And it&#39;s like, oh, oh, and they&#39;re on me. Yeah, exactly. I mean, trying to just run with somebody that&#39;s got longer legs. I mean, one of my old</p><p>training partners, Big Greg, I mean, I forgot how tall he was, but he was, you know, averaged around 275, 285. That was my best mile time that I was just running from him. I was just trying to stay ahead of him and his longer legs, man, for a big deal, he was, you know, I don&#39;t know how many steps, but behind me most of the way. I don&#39;t know if I lost him. I can&#39;t. It&#39;s been a number of years that I did that mile with my knees and stuff, but that was my best one, just trying to run from him. But, man, those footsteps were right behind me, you know, and it. It just sneaks up on you. And distance is just so scary. I mean, how fast everything changes. That&#39;s why you got to be aware as much as you can without looking like Josh did at the purse store, like a personal bodyguard. All right, I admit that one. I probably screwed up. Let&#39;s move on. Let&#39;s move on. Well, hey, failure is good and going, you know, so, hey, here&#39;s a video of you out. You know, like, that would be great to see. No, we</p><p>actually see it. It changes it. You&#39;re like, oh, man, what a jackass. I was right. And you can see that. Yeah, in video would be great. Maybe we can do a membership for that. We&#39;ll follow you around. Let&#39;s. Let&#39;s. Let&#39;s talk about that one before we put that one out there. I don&#39;t leave the house. You know that. I don&#39;t leave the house. I know. Yellow chem combat zone, you know, six to nine feet, strike or defend. And you&#39;re in the reactionary gap here. If you&#39;re behind that. We constantly talk about that. Hesitating. Yeah. Oh, man. You know, it&#39;s getting close here, and if you&#39;re behind the eight ball, so to speak, you&#39;re in trouble. You know you&#39;re in trouble. They hit you first. That can be all they need because you&#39;re behind. Yeah, you know, it&#39;s. It&#39;s a tough, tough position to be in when you are. Do I need to hit this person? Yeah, sometimes old, you know, safe than sorry and all that stuff comes into play here that you&#39;ve got to feel justified. But, man, if you&#39;re behind, that</p><p>sucks for you. Yeah. And then I gotta start thinking with my legs more, especially in that six to nine feet. If I do have that opportunity, if I am aware I can do the kickoff, which I don&#39;t do. Like, I always want to go to hands for some dumbass reason. Well, you know, we talked about that. I don&#39;t know if we talked about it on the show last week, but. But you know, when you do a front kick at the wrong time and you end up on your butt, so that&#39;s tough. They&#39;re great. Like any tool, it&#39;s great when you deploy it at the right time, but yeah, when you deploy it at the wrong time, it&#39;s stinks. Yeah, I saw it with the teenagers last night. I mean, and it was going slow and you still fall on your butt and it&#39;s like, it&#39;s that gamble. But when you can keep them at that distance with your foot, it&#39;s great. Yeah, it&#39;s great. Yeah. I mean, gamble slash, you know, you&#39;ve got to train it. It&#39;s like everything else I was telling the class last night. You know, maybe just work on guillotine choke</p><p>for a month or six months, you know, and yeah, get really good at it. You know, that&#39;s how I teach. I&#39;m constantly, you know, refining or doing the same lesson over and over again, you know, for a week in different age groups, different classes, different skill levels sometimes, but just doing it over and over again, you know, you refine your stuff and you know, you got to work that front kick. You got to work it, work it, work it. If it&#39;s just here and there. Yeah, you&#39;re probably. It is probably a gamble because you didn&#39;t train it enough and now you deployed that, you know, tool at the. Wrong time and then that has consequences, Right. You make a decision, doesn&#39;t work. You got to move on to the next one and hopefully you get to somewhere. Right. So you got to train every single day, really. I mean, you really have to train all the time to get super proficient at this stuff. It&#39;s wild. Yeah. If you want to up, you know, the whole thing. Up your odds. You want to up your odds. You</p><p>know, you better be training on a consistent basis. You know, it&#39;s something I kind of talk about in classes. Like you want to get to black belt, man, you&#39;ve got to train, train, train more and more and more. And that&#39;s, you know, depending on how good you want to be. But to get really proficient and get to that black belt level. Yeah, it&#39;s not a, I would say a part time hobby kind of thing. You know, we&#39;re talking about your life, you know, one benefit you know, hey, at least you&#39;re. You&#39;re getting exercise. You always need more exercise, so at least you&#39;re doing that. When you&#39;re. When you&#39;re training with us and. Or any other martial arts school, at least you&#39;re doing something. You&#39;re getting safer. Safer. And there&#39;s so many things out there that can get you and being proficient. Yeah. And then I think the next one that we&#39;re going to jump into is that contact distance. Yeah. Red. You know, zero to three, you know, zero to five. I mean, that stuff happens really fast. Yeah. It&#39;s</p><p>an immediate threat. You know, if you&#39;re hesitating and you don&#39;t have the skill there, it&#39;s over. It&#39;s even worse than being in yellow. I know you&#39;re. They&#39;re on you, and this is. Any hesitation, and it&#39;s the place where. Like, the panic will set in, and then you&#39;ll revert to your lowest level of training here. And I see it all the time. You used to tell me that all the time. You&#39;ll. Eventually, you&#39;ll see it, Josh. And I&#39;m starting to see that when it does get really high stress on anybody, really, they do revert to that last thing that they know how to do. Right. And our black belts have gotten to a point where they can just kind of naturally do something, which is really cool to watch. They&#39;ve at least got tools in the toolbox. Some of them select. But when you watch lower belts. Right. We&#39;re all still just trying to find that one thing. And we. We see him panic. You just. And then you got to go to something. That&#39;s why the training is so important, is to be able to go to</p><p>something. Yeah. You can&#39;t think about it. You know, you&#39;ll see a, you know, a lower level belt. You know, they&#39;re kind of thinking about the technique. There. There is no thinking. You&#39;ve done it enough. And things that pop in your head like that, like, oh, nice. Like we were doing Bill&#39;s drill. I don&#39;t know if we talked about it, because I guess maybe. Yeah, that was Thursday. What was he calling that drill? Quantum Leap. You know, that&#39;s. That&#39;s great. You know, you just open the eyes. Boom. And you&#39;re in some sort of situation of what? And, you know, it&#39;s a little bit out of context sometimes, but it&#39;s good. I mean, we&#39;re doing that drilling yesterday at noon. Peaceful warrior. Just, you know, clinch knife. Attacker can go to knife, but, you know, you do one with the guy&#39;s Eyes closed, and you just present the knife right in their face and say, go. And there&#39;s a knife in your face. It&#39;s. It&#39;s go time. You know, that&#39;s. That&#39;s red zone. That&#39;s. Whoa. I ended up here. How&#39;d you get</p><p>here? I don&#39;t know. You quantum leaped into it. But there&#39;s a knife in your face, and you need to go. You better do something. Yeah, it&#39;s. It&#39;s crazy how fast those things can go. So, yeah, it&#39;s. It&#39;s training. We were saying, hostage, gun to your head, on your knees. You know, we can teach somebody the basic technique. We can teach you the redirection. People can learn that, no problem. But everything after that redirection, when that gunman is behind you or at your side, was the context that we were doing that hostage in. We weren&#39;t. It wasn&#39;t the front situation, which I think is, you know, is easier, so to speak, as far as, you know, having a gun to your head and being kneeling on the ground behind it. You know, so many things can happen, and you have to have all those tools in your toolbox to get out of there. You have to have ground skills. You have to have fight awareness. You have to, you know, have had enough time with weapon redirection that you&#39;re not forgetting about the</p><p>weapon redirection. And. And as we saw last week, you know, people were hugging the gun into their body and bringing that line of fire onto their body because they just didn&#39;t have enough training time with redirecting the line of fire. And, yeah, you forget about it. Now you got two things. You know, that person&#39;s on you and fighting and resisting, and you have to keep. You have to keep the gun. Keep the gun off of you. You know, they. It&#39;s a. You&#39;ve got to train. You&#39;ve got to have all those other skills and assets that you can use. And when you don&#39;t, you know, you don&#39;t have that tool. As I say, now you&#39;re going to Home Depot to rent one. If you get to Home Depot at that point, yeah, like, you may not have the ride over. You know what I mean? Like, I don&#39;t have that tool, so I gotta get it. So, you know, those are, you know, know those zones that you want to be thinking about, guys, when you&#39;re out and about, it&#39;s blue, and it&#39;s not being paranoid, but just being aware is going to</p><p>keep you safer. It&#39;s going to keep you and your family safer. You know, Something we&#39;ve been talking a lot about here is family protection, because that adds a whole. Another skill set and awareness. Being able to move around and protect your family. That&#39;s a tough, tough situation. It&#39;s hard enough to defend yourself, never mind others. So, you know, if you can just be aware and get yourself out of there, that&#39;s, you know, a way better thing. All right, did we talk. Did I say that story when I was traveling to the Grand Canyon? Did we talk about that last week? I. I don&#39;t think so. I think it was in a class. It&#39;s a good, quick story. I think I was in eighth grade, and we&#39;re driving from California visiting a knot, and we&#39;re gonna go to the Grand Canyon for a couple days. And we were at some, you know, roadside diner, and a couple bikers came in, and they immediately were giving the waitress a hard time, the other waitress a hard time. And I just remember being, you know, eighth grade,</p><p>being like, whoa, okay, this is like a scene out of a movie. And my dad just got either. I thought we skipped out on the bill because my dad, like, go, like, we&#39;re pretty much done. But he&#39;s like, finish up. Let&#39;s go. And he. We were out of there to the effect that I thought we skipped out on the bill. I&#39;m like, man, are we not paying the bill? He&#39;s like, let&#39;s go, let&#39;s go. But, you know, I&#39;m also looking at these, you know, guys giving the waitress a hard time and going, oh, man. Man, just out. Get out of the. Get out of there. You know, one of the other seminars we want to, you know, we&#39;re talking about doing next for the gym is, you know, that decision making where we ran one. I think it was maybe the last one we did. We had a restaurant with kind of the similar scenario, and everybody. I think there&#39;s, you know, probably 15 people in that seminar. Maybe everybody went and got seated at that restaurant, except for one of my guys. One guy said, I don&#39;t think I&#39;m gonna dine here.</p><p>Have a good day. And I&#39;m like, all right, do you want to just run the scenario anyways? Because that was the right choice. Yeah. Do you want to just go into that scenario and just, hey, quant. Yeah. Now you&#39;re. Quantum leaped into it. Everybody else went in there with. I think we had four instructors, and Big Greg was one of them. I mean, we had people confronting Big Greg, and I think he had a machete at one point. Like, we just. I mean, people like, they were like, why didn&#39;t you leave? Your mission was you&#39;re at a restaurant with a family member. Be safe, right? Go home safe. Why the heck did you confront this guy? And he had a hatchet, you know, or a machete, I can&#39;t remember. And he&#39;s got friends at the table. Wow. You know, why didn&#39;t you just leave? That&#39;s. That&#39;s. She meant that&#39;s the human condition, right? Yeah, Well, I thought to say I was really hungry and I didn&#39;t want to go somewhere else. Yeah. I thought I had enough skill to. Yeah, I can take anybody. That&#39;s the biggest</p><p>mistake you always make. Like, get out of there first. If you can avoid the fight, do it because nobody&#39;s getting hurt. You&#39;re not taking risk. Yeah, exactly. So just be aware, guys, train more, suck less. We get up on there, you know, our online training portal. And you can buy our supplements at Suckless Co. Good stuff. And if you want, one month, if you&#39;re here in the Douglas County, Castle Rock, Larkspur. I was just talking about Larkspur today. Elizabeth Sedalia, Franktown, you know, Lone Tree. You&#39;re looking for good quality Krav Maga. That&#39;s all we do. That&#39;s what we specialize in, is self defense. And, you know, it&#39;s such a bigger game than even Krav Maga, right? Because we have our concealed carry training. We&#39;ve got so much to offer our Project FIT class. You know, be stronger. You know, want to wear down that big guy. Be stronger, be in better shape so you&#39;re better prepared for that fight. All right, guys, next time. What did I say we were up on, Josh? Do you remember? No,</p><p>not at all. I remember the goldfish. Oh, yeah. Training time hierarchy is what we&#39;re going to talk about next time. All right, guys, Enjoy the day.</p>]]></description>
                <content:encoded>&lt;h3&gt;The John Hallett Podcast | Episode #87&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;Welcome back to another episode of &lt;em&gt;The John Hallett Podcast&lt;/em&gt;! In Episode 87, we break down one of the most vital concepts in self-defense: &lt;strong&gt;Situational Awareness Zones&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whether you’re a seasoned martial artist or someone just starting their journey, understanding your environment can mean the difference between avoiding danger and walking straight into it. This episode is all about training your awareness like a skill—because it is one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🧠 “You’re Upping Your Chances”&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Early in the episode, John reflects on a conversation with a beginner student who was discouraged about defending against a larger attacker. His answer was simple and powerful:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;“You’re upping your chances. Nothing’s 100%—but you’re giving yourself a fighting chance.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;That’s what training is really about. Not perfection. Not guarantees. Just stacking the odds in your favor through preparation and awareness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🟦 Blue Zone – Situational Awareness&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is your &lt;strong&gt;default zone&lt;/strong&gt; when you’re out in the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You&amp;#39;re calm, but switched on. You’re scanning your surroundings without looking paranoid.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You’re not expecting a fight—you’re prepared to &lt;strong&gt;recognize a potential threat before it gets close&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🟩 Green Zone – The Action Zone&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;When someone enters your space—maybe a bit too fast, maybe watching you—it’s time to &lt;strong&gt;shift posture and mentally prepare&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It’s not go-time yet, but your mind is moving. This is your cue to reposition, plan an exit, or be ready to send a clear command: &lt;em&gt;“Back off.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🟨 Yellow Zone – The Combat Zone&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is &lt;strong&gt;within striking distance&lt;/strong&gt;. The moment where the fight might erupt at any second.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this zone, hesitation is dangerous. Your training needs to kick in—striking, blocking, or gaining positional control. As John says:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;“Distance equals time. And here—you’re out of both.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🟥 Red Zone – The Clinch Zone&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;You&amp;#39;re now &lt;strong&gt;chest to chest, inches away&lt;/strong&gt; from violence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There&amp;#39;s no time to talk, only time to act. Clinch control, elbows, knees—this is full-blown combat, where your survival depends on your ability to &lt;strong&gt;stay calm in chaos&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🎯 The Mission: Dominate the Angles, Control the Fight&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Every zone has a mindset, a strategy, and tools. The clearer you are on which zone you’re in, the faster you can adapt—and the more likely you are to survive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;🎧 Tune In&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Listen to the full episode for insights, examples, and tactical takeaways:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🎙️ &lt;em&gt;The John Hallett Podcast #87 – Situational Awareness Zones&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;📲 Available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;🌐 Learn more: &lt;a href=&#34;http://www.ClearSky.Training&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;www.ClearSky.Training&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Foreign. Hey, everybody. Welcome back. How you doing, Josh? I&amp;#39;m good. How are you? Got my coffee. I&amp;#39;m feeling good. You got your coffee? Yeah, I&amp;#39;m only on one cup of coffee here, so come on. Yeah, I might have to hit pause. So. Been a good week. A lot of new things. Training hard. I got. Just got crushed by big Jeff yesterday. My chest is killing me. No, that&amp;#39;s good. £280 on me or whatever. I don&amp;#39;t know. Right. Oh, it&amp;#39;s tough when you got that big guy on you, man. Yeah, Serious. It just is. Yeah. I was just saying to a beginner in the. In actually, Jeff&amp;#39;s class, Jeff was covering for Ryan today that, you know, sometimes I&amp;#39;m just trying to wear down the big guy. Like, she&amp;#39;s like, I&amp;#39;m not going to be able to defend it. Yeah, you&amp;#39;re upping your chances. When you do self defense, martial arts, whatever it is, you&amp;#39;re upping your chances or survival. Nothing&amp;#39;s 100%, you know, and sometimes people are like, I&amp;#39;m not going to be able to do it. Yeah, you&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;might not be able to do it. It&amp;#39;s called winning and losing and somebody being bigger and stronger. But I said, you know, sometimes it&amp;#39;s about not making a mistake and just wearing somebody down until they make a mistake or get too exhausted and it kind of starts to equal things out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it&amp;#39;s true. When you get gassed, you get gassed, right? Yeah, that&amp;#39;s. That&amp;#39;s a tough one when you do. Oh, I guess. Do I have this up on the screen already? You do. In here today we&amp;#39;re talking about situation awareness, so a good topic. You know, just being aware can keep you out of a lot of trouble right from the get go, you know, just avoiding it. Right. I like that you put in there. Don&amp;#39;t. You know, not paranoid. You ever seen that one guy for me? You mind the guy standing there in the line just like doing a crazy surveillance scan every 10 seconds. Yes. That&amp;#39;s what told me like a year ago that you were in, like, I don&amp;#39;t know, a person. Were you. Was she shopping for purses or something?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wherever you guys were. The outlet mall. All right. I may have been practicing there. People are like, that dude&amp;#39;s gonna steal something. No, I&amp;#39;m crazy. I did feel like I intimidated everybody in the room. And I was like, well, maybe this isn&amp;#39;t smart. Yeah. So, yeah, even one of our teenagers was just in Paris and he said, I saw a guy got jumped and, you know, Kind of avoided it, you know, seeing it and seeing something happen. Even like in the real world, you know, coming from a small town like Castle Rock, sometimes that, you know, opens up, like, oh, these things do happen. It can happen. I mean, it can happen in Castle Rock. I mean, who knows? You never know. I mean, they just found that dead body off a Larkspur exit. Right. We should talk about that. No, but I mean, again, that&amp;#39;s situational awareness. Even someone seeing that body, like indicators around you that things are going bad, you know, it&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s real. Yeah. Just seeing somebody get jumped. So we&amp;#39;ll jump right into it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blue situation awareness zone. Be aware, not paranoid. Be covertly aware of your surroundings. Distance is fluid and may change in a split second. Right. Just, you know, you&amp;#39;re walking around kind of every day. Should be your state. Shouldn&amp;#39;t be paranoid especially, and jumpy and getting yourself all freaked out. I mean, most of the time, depending on where you&amp;#39;re at, it&amp;#39;s a pretty low probability situation now, you know, you just see somebody get jumped. Okay. You know, this walk in the park or wherever the heck you are just changed. So. Yeah. Up in your level a little bit. Seeing some violence in that area, even if you can avoid it, going, okay, this might not be a good area just in general. So. Yeah. And you don&amp;#39;t know where that thing&amp;#39;s going. Like, it could escalate from a simple assault to somebody pulling a gun or a knife or something weird. And it changes the whole dynamic. So if you can see it before it gets to you, get the heck out. I mean, like, you always tell me the first&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;rule is go home safe. Yeah. If you can just get out of there, be fantastic. Right? I mean. Yeah. But, you know, being. Being aware and. And you&amp;#39;re not. Your head in the phone, as everybody says, or just looking around, that helps you out a lot, you know, to avoid getting attacked by that bigger guy, you know? Yeah. Get distance. Get distance. Green in an hour. More of an action zone. Somebody&amp;#39;s close and we&amp;#39;re thinking there is a potential threat there. You know, their posture shift, somebody might be staring at you. You know, you got to be prepared to move or strike if the situation escalates and, you know, they get closer. You know, that 21ft is not that far. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. They cover that in the blink of an eye. Yes. It&amp;#39;s crazy how fast. I mean, a good athlete, somebody younger. Yes. You know, I&amp;#39;ve seen long legs cover three feet a step. And it&amp;#39;s like, oh, oh, and they&amp;#39;re on me. Yeah, exactly. I mean, trying to just run with somebody that&amp;#39;s got longer legs. I mean, one of my old&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;training partners, Big Greg, I mean, I forgot how tall he was, but he was, you know, averaged around 275, 285. That was my best mile time that I was just running from him. I was just trying to stay ahead of him and his longer legs, man, for a big deal, he was, you know, I don&amp;#39;t know how many steps, but behind me most of the way. I don&amp;#39;t know if I lost him. I can&amp;#39;t. It&amp;#39;s been a number of years that I did that mile with my knees and stuff, but that was my best one, just trying to run from him. But, man, those footsteps were right behind me, you know, and it. It just sneaks up on you. And distance is just so scary. I mean, how fast everything changes. That&amp;#39;s why you got to be aware as much as you can without looking like Josh did at the purse store, like a personal bodyguard. All right, I admit that one. I probably screwed up. Let&amp;#39;s move on. Let&amp;#39;s move on. Well, hey, failure is good and going, you know, so, hey, here&amp;#39;s a video of you out. You know, like, that would be great to see. No, we&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;actually see it. It changes it. You&amp;#39;re like, oh, man, what a jackass. I was right. And you can see that. Yeah, in video would be great. Maybe we can do a membership for that. We&amp;#39;ll follow you around. Let&amp;#39;s. Let&amp;#39;s. Let&amp;#39;s talk about that one before we put that one out there. I don&amp;#39;t leave the house. You know that. I don&amp;#39;t leave the house. I know. Yellow chem combat zone, you know, six to nine feet, strike or defend. And you&amp;#39;re in the reactionary gap here. If you&amp;#39;re behind that. We constantly talk about that. Hesitating. Yeah. Oh, man. You know, it&amp;#39;s getting close here, and if you&amp;#39;re behind the eight ball, so to speak, you&amp;#39;re in trouble. You know you&amp;#39;re in trouble. They hit you first. That can be all they need because you&amp;#39;re behind. Yeah, you know, it&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s a tough, tough position to be in when you are. Do I need to hit this person? Yeah, sometimes old, you know, safe than sorry and all that stuff comes into play here that you&amp;#39;ve got to feel justified. But, man, if you&amp;#39;re behind, that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;sucks for you. Yeah. And then I gotta start thinking with my legs more, especially in that six to nine feet. If I do have that opportunity, if I am aware I can do the kickoff, which I don&amp;#39;t do. Like, I always want to go to hands for some dumbass reason. Well, you know, we talked about that. I don&amp;#39;t know if we talked about it on the show last week, but. But you know, when you do a front kick at the wrong time and you end up on your butt, so that&amp;#39;s tough. They&amp;#39;re great. Like any tool, it&amp;#39;s great when you deploy it at the right time, but yeah, when you deploy it at the wrong time, it&amp;#39;s stinks. Yeah, I saw it with the teenagers last night. I mean, and it was going slow and you still fall on your butt and it&amp;#39;s like, it&amp;#39;s that gamble. But when you can keep them at that distance with your foot, it&amp;#39;s great. Yeah, it&amp;#39;s great. Yeah. I mean, gamble slash, you know, you&amp;#39;ve got to train it. It&amp;#39;s like everything else I was telling the class last night. You know, maybe just work on guillotine choke&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;for a month or six months, you know, and yeah, get really good at it. You know, that&amp;#39;s how I teach. I&amp;#39;m constantly, you know, refining or doing the same lesson over and over again, you know, for a week in different age groups, different classes, different skill levels sometimes, but just doing it over and over again, you know, you refine your stuff and you know, you got to work that front kick. You got to work it, work it, work it. If it&amp;#39;s just here and there. Yeah, you&amp;#39;re probably. It is probably a gamble because you didn&amp;#39;t train it enough and now you deployed that, you know, tool at the. Wrong time and then that has consequences, Right. You make a decision, doesn&amp;#39;t work. You got to move on to the next one and hopefully you get to somewhere. Right. So you got to train every single day, really. I mean, you really have to train all the time to get super proficient at this stuff. It&amp;#39;s wild. Yeah. If you want to up, you know, the whole thing. Up your odds. You want to up your odds. You&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;know, you better be training on a consistent basis. You know, it&amp;#39;s something I kind of talk about in classes. Like you want to get to black belt, man, you&amp;#39;ve got to train, train, train more and more and more. And that&amp;#39;s, you know, depending on how good you want to be. But to get really proficient and get to that black belt level. Yeah, it&amp;#39;s not a, I would say a part time hobby kind of thing. You know, we&amp;#39;re talking about your life, you know, one benefit you know, hey, at least you&amp;#39;re. You&amp;#39;re getting exercise. You always need more exercise, so at least you&amp;#39;re doing that. When you&amp;#39;re. When you&amp;#39;re training with us and. Or any other martial arts school, at least you&amp;#39;re doing something. You&amp;#39;re getting safer. Safer. And there&amp;#39;s so many things out there that can get you and being proficient. Yeah. And then I think the next one that we&amp;#39;re going to jump into is that contact distance. Yeah. Red. You know, zero to three, you know, zero to five. I mean, that stuff happens really fast. Yeah. It&amp;#39;s&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;an immediate threat. You know, if you&amp;#39;re hesitating and you don&amp;#39;t have the skill there, it&amp;#39;s over. It&amp;#39;s even worse than being in yellow. I know you&amp;#39;re. They&amp;#39;re on you, and this is. Any hesitation, and it&amp;#39;s the place where. Like, the panic will set in, and then you&amp;#39;ll revert to your lowest level of training here. And I see it all the time. You used to tell me that all the time. You&amp;#39;ll. Eventually, you&amp;#39;ll see it, Josh. And I&amp;#39;m starting to see that when it does get really high stress on anybody, really, they do revert to that last thing that they know how to do. Right. And our black belts have gotten to a point where they can just kind of naturally do something, which is really cool to watch. They&amp;#39;ve at least got tools in the toolbox. Some of them select. But when you watch lower belts. Right. We&amp;#39;re all still just trying to find that one thing. And we. We see him panic. You just. And then you got to go to something. That&amp;#39;s why the training is so important, is to be able to go to&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;something. Yeah. You can&amp;#39;t think about it. You know, you&amp;#39;ll see a, you know, a lower level belt. You know, they&amp;#39;re kind of thinking about the technique. There. There is no thinking. You&amp;#39;ve done it enough. And things that pop in your head like that, like, oh, nice. Like we were doing Bill&amp;#39;s drill. I don&amp;#39;t know if we talked about it, because I guess maybe. Yeah, that was Thursday. What was he calling that drill? Quantum Leap. You know, that&amp;#39;s. That&amp;#39;s great. You know, you just open the eyes. Boom. And you&amp;#39;re in some sort of situation of what? And, you know, it&amp;#39;s a little bit out of context sometimes, but it&amp;#39;s good. I mean, we&amp;#39;re doing that drilling yesterday at noon. Peaceful warrior. Just, you know, clinch knife. Attacker can go to knife, but, you know, you do one with the guy&amp;#39;s Eyes closed, and you just present the knife right in their face and say, go. And there&amp;#39;s a knife in your face. It&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s go time. You know, that&amp;#39;s. That&amp;#39;s red zone. That&amp;#39;s. Whoa. I ended up here. How&amp;#39;d you get&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;here? I don&amp;#39;t know. You quantum leaped into it. But there&amp;#39;s a knife in your face, and you need to go. You better do something. Yeah, it&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s crazy how fast those things can go. So, yeah, it&amp;#39;s. It&amp;#39;s training. We were saying, hostage, gun to your head, on your knees. You know, we can teach somebody the basic technique. We can teach you the redirection. People can learn that, no problem. But everything after that redirection, when that gunman is behind you or at your side, was the context that we were doing that hostage in. We weren&amp;#39;t. It wasn&amp;#39;t the front situation, which I think is, you know, is easier, so to speak, as far as, you know, having a gun to your head and being kneeling on the ground behind it. You know, so many things can happen, and you have to have all those tools in your toolbox to get out of there. You have to have ground skills. You have to have fight awareness. You have to, you know, have had enough time with weapon redirection that you&amp;#39;re not forgetting about the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;weapon redirection. And. And as we saw last week, you know, people were hugging the gun into their body and bringing that line of fire onto their body because they just didn&amp;#39;t have enough training time with redirecting the line of fire. And, yeah, you forget about it. Now you got two things. You know, that person&amp;#39;s on you and fighting and resisting, and you have to keep. You have to keep the gun. Keep the gun off of you. You know, they. It&amp;#39;s a. You&amp;#39;ve got to train. You&amp;#39;ve got to have all those other skills and assets that you can use. And when you don&amp;#39;t, you know, you don&amp;#39;t have that tool. As I say, now you&amp;#39;re going to Home Depot to rent one. If you get to Home Depot at that point, yeah, like, you may not have the ride over. You know what I mean? Like, I don&amp;#39;t have that tool, so I gotta get it. So, you know, those are, you know, know those zones that you want to be thinking about, guys, when you&amp;#39;re out and about, it&amp;#39;s blue, and it&amp;#39;s not being paranoid, but just being aware is going to&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;keep you safer. It&amp;#39;s going to keep you and your family safer. You know, Something we&amp;#39;ve been talking a lot about here is family protection, because that adds a whole. Another skill set and awareness. Being able to move around and protect your family. That&amp;#39;s a tough, tough situation. It&amp;#39;s hard enough to defend yourself, never mind others. So, you know, if you can just be aware and get yourself out of there, that&amp;#39;s, you know, a way better thing. All right, did we talk. Did I say that story when I was traveling to the Grand Canyon? Did we talk about that last week? I. I don&amp;#39;t think so. I think it was in a class. It&amp;#39;s a good, quick story. I think I was in eighth grade, and we&amp;#39;re driving from California visiting a knot, and we&amp;#39;re gonna go to the Grand Canyon for a couple days. And we were at some, you know, roadside diner, and a couple bikers came in, and they immediately were giving the waitress a hard time, the other waitress a hard time. And I just remember being, you know, eighth grade,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;being like, whoa, okay, this is like a scene out of a movie. And my dad just got either. I thought we skipped out on the bill because my dad, like, go, like, we&amp;#39;re pretty much done. But he&amp;#39;s like, finish up. Let&amp;#39;s go. And he. We were out of there to the effect that I thought we skipped out on the bill. I&amp;#39;m like, man, are we not paying the bill? He&amp;#39;s like, let&amp;#39;s go, let&amp;#39;s go. But, you know, I&amp;#39;m also looking at these, you know, guys giving the waitress a hard time and going, oh, man. Man, just out. Get out of the. Get out of there. You know, one of the other seminars we want to, you know, we&amp;#39;re talking about doing next for the gym is, you know, that decision making where we ran one. I think it was maybe the last one we did. We had a restaurant with kind of the similar scenario, and everybody. I think there&amp;#39;s, you know, probably 15 people in that seminar. Maybe everybody went and got seated at that restaurant, except for one of my guys. One guy said, I don&amp;#39;t think I&amp;#39;m gonna dine here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have a good day. And I&amp;#39;m like, all right, do you want to just run the scenario anyways? Because that was the right choice. Yeah. Do you want to just go into that scenario and just, hey, quant. Yeah. Now you&amp;#39;re. Quantum leaped into it. Everybody else went in there with. I think we had four instructors, and Big Greg was one of them. I mean, we had people confronting Big Greg, and I think he had a machete at one point. Like, we just. I mean, people like, they were like, why didn&amp;#39;t you leave? Your mission was you&amp;#39;re at a restaurant with a family member. Be safe, right? Go home safe. Why the heck did you confront this guy? And he had a hatchet, you know, or a machete, I can&amp;#39;t remember. And he&amp;#39;s got friends at the table. Wow. You know, why didn&amp;#39;t you just leave? That&amp;#39;s. That&amp;#39;s. She meant that&amp;#39;s the human condition, right? Yeah, Well, I thought to say I was really hungry and I didn&amp;#39;t want to go somewhere else. Yeah. I thought I had enough skill to. Yeah, I can take anybody. That&amp;#39;s the biggest&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;mistake you always make. Like, get out of there first. If you can avoid the fight, do it because nobody&amp;#39;s getting hurt. You&amp;#39;re not taking risk. Yeah, exactly. So just be aware, guys, train more, suck less. We get up on there, you know, our online training portal. And you can buy our supplements at Suckless Co. Good stuff. And if you want, one month, if you&amp;#39;re here in the Douglas County, Castle Rock, Larkspur. I was just talking about Larkspur today. Elizabeth Sedalia, Franktown, you know, Lone Tree. You&amp;#39;re looking for good quality Krav Maga. That&amp;#39;s all we do. That&amp;#39;s what we specialize in, is self defense. And, you know, it&amp;#39;s such a bigger game than even Krav Maga, right? Because we have our concealed carry training. We&amp;#39;ve got so much to offer our Project FIT class. You know, be stronger. You know, want to wear down that big guy. Be stronger, be in better shape so you&amp;#39;re better prepared for that fight. All right, guys, next time. What did I say we were up on, Josh? Do you remember? No,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;not at all. I remember the goldfish. Oh, yeah. Training time hierarchy is what we&amp;#39;re going to talk about next time. All right, guys, Enjoy the day.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

                <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Welcome to the John Hallett Podcast</strong></p><p>Hey everybody, welcome back to the John Hallett Podcast! Today we&#39;re diving deep into <strong>combative zones</strong> and <strong>action zones</strong> — the various distances and decision points you face in a real-life self-defense situation. These are critical concepts for anyone serious about their personal protection, especially those training in Krav Maga and other martial arts.</p><p>We want to thank our growing community of listeners. If you want to support the podcast and our mission, check out <a href="https://suckless.co" rel="nofollow">SuckLess.co</a>, our online training portal <a href="https://clearsky.training" rel="nofollow">ClearSky.Training</a>, and of course, our in-person programs at <a href="https://rmsdf.com/" rel="nofollow">Rocky Mountain Self Defense &amp; Fitness</a>.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Training the Mind and the Body</strong></p><p>Self-defense isn’t just a mental game. It’s not enough to understand concepts — you have to train them physically. You have to push yourself, challenge your excuses, and build real-world skills through hard training.</p><p>That’s why I still do things like cold plunges. Not because I love it, but because it builds mental resilience. That mindset translates directly to self-defense. The world isn’t getting safer, and we all need to be ready to act, not just think.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Let’s Talk Zones</strong></p><p>When we break down combative zones, we’re talking about the physical distance between you and a potential threat. Each zone requires different skills, awareness, and action. Here’s a breakdown:</p><h3>Zone 4: Awareness (15–25 ft)</h3><p>This is your first line of defense — the decision-making zone. Can you spot a threat before it becomes an attack? You have a few seconds (maybe less) to:</p><ul><li>Recognize threats</li><li>Create distance</li><li>Call 911</li><li>Use command presence or verbal de-escalation</li></ul><p>This zone is fluid. Someone athletic can close that gap in under 2 seconds. Train your awareness and threat recognition here.</p><h3>Zone 3: Engagement Prep (10–15 ft)</h3><p>Things are escalating. You may need to:</p><ul><li>Use tactical movement (create angles or barriers)</li><li>Deploy a front kick to keep someone back</li><li>Consider a weapon draw (only if truly justified)</li></ul><p>Training the front kick is essential here. But if you mistime it, you’re vulnerable. Practice with movement. Don’t just hit pads.</p><h3>Zone 2: Striking Range (5–10 ft)</h3><p>This is where people freeze up. You’re now in a fight whether you like it or not.</p><ul><li>You must strike first if the threat is imminent</li><li>Weapons like knives or guns may come out</li><li>This is not the time to reach for pepper spray or a firearm unless you’ve created the space to safely do so</li></ul><h3>Zone 1: Clinch / Close-Quarters (0–5 ft)</h3><p>Welcome to the worst-case scenario. You’re being grabbed, taken down, or attacked with deadly intent. Now it’s:</p><ul><li>Elbows, knees, headbutts (if trained)</li><li>Weapon redirection and control</li><li>Relentless attack until the threat is neutralized</li></ul><p>Ladies: if someone is close enough to grab you, there is no half-measure. Be overwhelming in your response. Training breeds confidence and control in these critical moments.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Reality-Based Training: Citizen Defender Class</strong></p><p>This is exactly what we do in our <strong>Citizen Defender</strong> class at RMSDF. You can’t just train on a flat range and expect to perform under stress. You need:</p><ul><li>Stress inoculation</li><li>Scenario drills (Quantum Leap drills, for example)</li><li>Close-quarters decision-making</li></ul><p>We train everything from pre-fight indicators to 911 protocol and what to say after a defensive incident. These are the real-life details that make the difference.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Don’t Wait. Train Now.</strong></p><p>Every day you delay is another day you remain unprepared. Our Clear Sky Training Portal lets you train from anywhere. And if you’re local to Castle Rock, come train in person. You don’t need to be fit. You just need to start.</p><p>And for new listeners: we&#39;re offering <strong>one month free</strong> to get started. No excuses.

                <description><![CDATA[<p>Hey, everybody, let&#39;s see if we can get this one done without Josh. He is training in Minnesota with Nick doing another level of citizen defender. One might ask, why am I not there? They&#39;re doing the last level that Bill and I did, so they&#39;re getting it done. Good luck to those guys. I guess Josh already got need in the head in a drill by the one and only. All right, Minnesota Martial Arts. Now I&#39;m gonna black on blank on his name. That is terrible. Oh, well, Greg Nelson. I had Todd Fosse, that&#39;s the instructor for ids, so mixed up those names. So I was gonna bring on Leo, my French bulldog, but he decided to work in the office with my wife. He&#39;s more popular today. He usually joins me in the afternoon, but he must be boycotting me. He is much better looking than Josh, but, you know, some people might argue. So today we&#39;re talking about training power zones. These are really important, guys. I&#39;ll bring up the slide from our Clear Sky Dot training. Oh, where is it? There it is. Website where you can train with us online. That&#39;s great for our students. You know, get on there, get in it. There&#39;s a ton of stuff, including testing for each belt level that is required here at Rocky Mountain Self Defense and Fitness, our home base here in Castle Rock, Colorado. So look, guys, I remember being a white belt and kind of my instructor calling me the wild and crazy one, the one and only Master Miller from Nantucket Taekwondo. He was always telling me to slow down. I had just came off high school football, and I just knew one thing like, go hard, go 100%. And that leads to injuries and a whole ton of other things that can happen in that 100% all out. And I&#39;m constantly telling beginners, slow it down, slow it down. And you know what I see? Looks like I was going slow and. And you&#39;re all going. Or we are all going way faster than we think. You know, standing off to the sidelines, you start to see it. And you know, one thing I tell people, I&#39;ve watched you hit the bag at 100%. You&#39;re pretty darn close to that in that drill or whatever we might have been doing. So to quickly summarize, zone one is zero to 20. Zone two is 20 to 40% speed and power. So zone three, 40 to 60. Zone four, controlled speed and power. And zone five, 80 to 100. And we&#39;re leaving that to testing. You know, once in a while type of training where you can get hurt, but we need to do that. Sometimes test our mental toughness and put us under that real world stress. But the likelihood of getting hurt, injured on those always goes up. So we don&#39;t want to spend much time in zone five at all. Now look, zone one, it&#39;s on the slide a bit here, but I&#39;m looking on my bigger screen because of my old eyes. Slow is smooth. You know, if you learn slow, you can get this stuff down. You know, focus on precision, timing, the mechanics. You&#39;re really going way slower than you think you should. There&#39;s really no power behind everything you do, you know, we&#39;ll call it slow touch sparring. When we&#39;re doing sparring at this level, it&#39;s just slow. It&#39;s just landing the light touch. Just. You&#39;re not even going to knock over that glass of water. I always kind of joke around and say, you know, unless you have a sippy cup at the dinner table, you know, you should be able to reach out and touch somebody without smashing them. You know, you want to build clean habits and good muscle memory here. You want to learn more on quote unquote muscle memory? Check out Andrew Huberman&#39;s podcast. That&#39;s fantastic. Neuro guy. I forget his whole repertoire. But we were not going to get into Andrew Huberman. So, you know, the philosophy here is slow is smooth and smooth is fast. One of my first levels, I can&#39;t remember the first or second. And I had a guy that I was training with in the hotel after, and he said to me after the test, wow, I kind of thought you were really slow and wonky, some things of that effect. And, and I said, you know, why&#39;d you think that? Oh, when we were training, you just did. Everything was really slow. Like I&#39;m just trying to get it down so when I do go fast, the wheels aren&#39;t falling off. You&#39;re building good habits. It pays off in the long run. You know, zone two, where, you know, we&#39;re moving up a little bit, 20 to 40%. But it is still pretty darn slow here, guys. 20 to 40%. Not that fast at all. Want our reactions to become natural in these. Sorry to click the slide. For those of you guys on YouTube, you can check these slides out without even visiting our portal or signing up for a low cost membership on there. All this stuff takes time and until I hit Powerball, I&#39;m trying to make some money. All right, let&#39;s see. Focus, flow control, consistent technique. Being able to do it time after time without your, let&#39;s say uppercut, you know, breaking 90 degrees being too far away from the person. We&#39;re doing this in self defense. You know, you&#39;re building those good habits that I&#39;m using this tool. It&#39;s slow enough to recognize. I have an uppercut, elbow, I have whatever technique, a knee strike. Hey, they&#39;re a little bit further away. I need to go to a kick or they&#39;re further away. I need to go to an advancing kick pick to keep my tools on this guy and to stay engaged, right? Power is really low to moderate. It&#39;s not gonna cause bruising. Most people aren&#39;t going to say ouch when you hit him at 20%. You know, you get up to 40, you know, depending on somebody, but it starts to get you accustomed to getting hit. We even say with our kick shields, you&#39;re getting used to getting hit. So this is not a big shot shock in an actual fight. And a lot of people fool themselves and think they&#39;re going to be fine. And then there&#39;s utter shock on their face when they actually get hit. Even remote, even at 50%, never mind somebody hitting you at full speed. So we want to kind of get used to getting hit and sparring and all that type of stuff at this 20 to 40 zone, get comfortable with it. You know, it doesn&#39;t happen overnight. We want to be able to groove in the movements. You know, safe repetition builds confidence. You know, you&#39;re not. Your partner&#39;s not freaking out and doing weird things on you because you&#39;re just going so fast and out of control and they&#39;re just trying to stay the heck away from you. We want to spend most of our training time in zone one and two. That&#39;s 60%. You know, if you kind of do the math on those, we&#39;re in there. It&#39;s a good, good zones to be in. My favorite two zones, constantly saying, if you don&#39;t see the fight slow, you&#39;re not seeing it fast. You&#39;re just fooling yourself. You&#39;re just windmilling in, you&#39;re just spazzing out. You know, hey, when in doubt, be aggressive, spaz out. You know, by all means, windmill in. But man, I don&#39;t want to have to resort to those type of things. Zone 3 is at 40 to 60%. Smooth is fast, right? Focus on realism without recklessness. Again, nobody wants to be your partner when you&#39;re crazy. Speed&#39;s moderate. Our power is controlled and clean. You&#39;re able to stop that punch. You&#39;re going slow enough that you can stop the strike. You know, your partner maybe moves a little bit under Unexpectedly, you&#39;re still able to control that. And that&#39;s a thing that takes time. It&#39;s repetition, like everything else. Repetition, purpose, add pressure while still staying sharp. You know, we&#39;re going to spend about 20% of our training time on this. And one note on all of these. You know, they&#39;re great to do on a heavy bag. You know, when you&#39;re kicking a kick shield, you can practice these things, shadow boxing without a partner and kind of feel your own speeds and try to figure that out. And, you know, when in doubt, video yourself. Be your own coach. You know, watch yourself, try, like full speed and then go, all right, let me cut that down in half and really try to relate that. It&#39;s a tough thing to do. It&#39;s a tough thing to even watch and kind of tell, but you just have to do it. It&#39;s a tougher things for coaches. You know, figuring out people and, you know, their different speeds and knowing, you know, hey, that guy is actually extremely fast. I think of coach Ben. He&#39;s extreme explosive and fast, more so than the average person. So watching different people, it&#39;s always a challenge for coaches to, you know, help that person along their journey. This 60 to 80, I guess that&#39;s where I&#39;m at. Timing under pressure. Zone four is where we&#39;re at. Sorry, I need Josh. Timing under pressure, speed. You know, you&#39;re going fast here. Power&#39;s high, but with restraint, you know, you&#39;re still able to pull it off even if you&#39;re hitting them pretty hard. You were. You were dialing it back. That happens to me, you know, quite a bit at this speed that, you know, something happens whether, you know, you get away from yourself a little bit. You know, a lot of times a person moves, you&#39;re still able to pull the brakes. Even though you probably hit that person at 50%. But you were, you know, you dialed the back 25%. It&#39;s a tough thing to do and recognize in fighting. You know, I want to find my cracks in my technique. You know, the wheel, you know, things start, you know, coming off, coming unhinged. The wheels are coming off the car at this, and you really start to recognize, I should be spending some more time in zone one or two, possibly to kind of fix those errors that were happening under that type of speed and stress, you know, 15% of the time. Zone five. All right, 80 to 100. That&#39;s a stress test. What are you doing? It&#39;s probably in an advanced test is where we&#39;re going to see this. And I actually Just updated these slides here on some of this. I guess I added it on mine, but not on yours because we&#39;ve got takeaways coming up next. But, you know, you&#39;re going max speed and max power, you know, simulates a real fight stress. But we&#39;re rarely doing this right because of that high risk of injury, you know, a concussion, all that type of stuff, or training this fast. We don&#39;t want to do it that much, but we have to do it sometimes. I&#39;ll use the NFL and go, when are these guys hitting full speed? They&#39;re. They&#39;re hitting full speed, you know, in preseason. But once they get in season, it&#39;s game day, right? It&#39;s game day. And for us at Rocky Mountain, it&#39;s throw down the gauntlet in that advanced testing zone. When somebody&#39;s mentally, mentally and physically ready to do this, it&#39;s going to defeat under belts, even though they might feel that they&#39;re ready. This is a good deal of training that you&#39;re getting up and going in that 80 to 100% stress level for people. You know, what&#39;s, you know, ground fighting, stand up fighting, you know, bull in the ring type of thing where you&#39;re doing self defense. That&#39;s really tough to be going hard because, you know, you&#39;re being a bad guy, you&#39;re attacking the person. You&#39;re not quite doing things that you would normally do, but you know, you got to defend yourself on those. So a bit of it is got to be you as the actual fighter, but you&#39;re training somebody that&#39;s trying to go really full tilt. So we&#39;re not spending a lot of time in these. It&#39;s not part of your daily or monthly training routine there. This is where you&#39;ve got to train more. You know, I say it all the time, but that&#39;s what it comes down to. A whole lot of the times that we just need to go slow. We don&#39;t need to defeat somebody, especially as coaches, by going way too fast. It. We want to be able to, you know, give them the car keys when they&#39;re ready for the car keys and not before. So I think this about wraps it up, especially without Josh. You know, it&#39;s kind of a quick one here. I&#39;ll look through a couple of my other notes. I guess I didn&#39;t hit your takeaways or a little bit further down if you&#39;re watching on YouTube. I added a couple things. You know, number one, takeaway, we train smart, we train safe, we train for real life, but nobody needs to Be injured unnecessarily because that is gonna happen when you&#39;re going fast. You know, injuries do happen. It&#39;s part of contact sports. Actually, a real beginner in our citizen defender class just said, you know, you guys are always hurt. Well, like sometimes, yeah, you&#39;re banged up. I played contact sports since I was in the fifth grade. Yeah, my knees currently looking to be evaluated by the doctor and see what&#39;s going on. But there was nothing in class that happened. It&#39;s just, you know, wear and tear. That&#39;s things that happen. And, you know, she was a little concerned about getting hurt, but I&#39;m like, you know, we&#39;re slowly ramping you up. You know, any good school you&#39;re, you know, she was referring to watching the advanced people. I&#39;m like, you&#39;re comparing somebody that&#39;s been in my gym 5 years plus is what she was comparing some students. I mean, some of them had even longer than that. As a beginner, you&#39;re going to start off slow and easy. You know, that&#39;s zone one and two. Nobody needs to get hurt and you need to be ready for that higher level training. Even though. Right. We all think we&#39;re ready for that higher level training after, you know, our first intro class, especially the guys. Takeaway 2. How we train is how we fight. Right. You&#39;ve got to be realistic, but you also have to be safe. And different aspects of this is just huge. You know, the habits you build in training, your timing, your composure, your discipline. I was actually just saying somebody today, like, settle down. You&#39;re getting like really aggressive, trying to push your daughter around. And you know, her daughter&#39;s, you know, teenager. I think she&#39;s probably 17, 18. You&#39;re, you&#39;re just trying to go too hard. Just relax. You&#39;re getting, you can see, I can see that you&#39;re muscling the technique, like relax, you know, under pressure. We want to be relaxed. Let&#39;s see, where do I leave off on that? Your timing, your composure, your discipline are exactly what will, what you will rely on when it counts. Train sloppy, fight sloppy. Right. You just kind of look like crap. You&#39;re windmilling in and we all degrade. One of my favorite things, you know, to watch as Olympic weightlifting for this because you can see the person degrade as their weight goes up, you know, under that stress, under that load. And if you lift crappy and you have crappy technique, man, does it look totally horrible when you&#39;re trying to get up to your max level or close, you know, an 80% max and 90% max. And your technique is sloppy. It is terrible. The best trained person is coming undone with stress and fatigue. So if you train that way and your punch is crappy, you know, in class, it&#39;s going to be worse under stress. You know, don&#39;t fool yourself. Train with purpose and you&#39;ll respond with power and control. All right, guys, we&#39;re going to wrap it up here. Want to keep that one under 30 minutes and we&#39;re at like 17, so. Doing great without Josh, but not really. He misses insights on this one. But we will catch you guys next time. Let&#39;s check out. I can let you guys check it out. We&#39;ve got two of the same slides for you guys. We&#39;re going to be talking about our core training categories next, and you know how we prioritize what we&#39;re doing here at Rocky Mountain Self Defense and Fitness and our online training portal, Clear Sky Training. If you want to support us in this podcast, you can do that on Clear Sky Training. There&#39;s a link over to our shop or you can sign up for a membership.

You&amp;#39;re just windmilling in, you&amp;#39;re just spazzing out. You know, hey, when in doubt, be aggressive, spaz out. You know, by all means, windmill in. But man, I don&amp;#39;t want to have to resort to those type of things. Zone 3 is at 40 to 60%. Smooth is fast, right? Focus on realism without recklessness. Again, nobody wants to be your partner when you&amp;#39;re crazy. Speed&amp;#39;s moderate. Our power is controlled and clean. You&amp;#39;re able to stop that punch. You&amp;#39;re going slow enough that you can stop the strike. You know, your partner maybe moves a little bit under Unexpectedly, you&amp;#39;re still able to control that. And that&amp;#39;s a thing that takes time. It&amp;#39;s repetition, like everything else. Repetition, purpose, add pressure while still staying sharp. You know, we&amp;#39;re going to spend about 20% of our training time on this. And one note on all of these. You know, they&amp;#39;re great to do on a heavy bag. You know, when you&amp;#39;re kicking a kick shield, you can practice these things, shadow boxing without a partner and kind of feel your own speeds and try to figure that out. And, you know, when in doubt, video yourself. Be your own coach. You know, watch yourself, try, like full speed and then go, all right, let me cut that down in half and really try to relate that. It&amp;#39;s a tough thing to do. It&amp;#39;s a tough thing to even watch and kind of tell, but you just have to do it. It&amp;#39;s a tougher things for coaches. You know, figuring out people and, you know, their different speeds and knowing, you know, hey, that guy is actually extremely fast. I think of coach Ben. He&amp;#39;s extreme explosive and fast, more so than the average person. So watching different people, it&amp;#39;s always a challenge for coaches to, you know, help that person along their journey. This 60 to 80, I guess that&amp;#39;s where I&amp;#39;m at. Timing under pressure. Zone four is where we&amp;#39;re at. Sorry, I need Josh. Timing under pressure, speed. You know, you&amp;#39;re going fast here. Power&amp;#39;s high, but with restraint, you know, you&amp;#39;re still able to pull it off even if you&amp;#39;re hitting them pretty hard. You were. You were dialing it back. That happens to me, you know, quite a bit at this speed that, you know, something happens whether, you know, you get away from yourself a little bit. You know, a lot of times a person moves, you&amp;#39;re still able to pull the brakes. Even though you probably hit that person at 50%. But you were, you know, you dialed the back 25%. It&amp;#39;s a tough thing to do and recognize in fighting. You know, I want to find my cracks in my technique. You know, the wheel, you know, things start, you know, coming off, coming unhinged. The wheels are coming off the car at this, and you really start to recognize, I should be spending some more time in zone one or two, possibly to kind of fix those errors that were happening under that type of speed and stress, you know, 15% of the time. Zone five. All right, 80 to 100. That&amp;#39;s a stress test. What are you doing? It&amp;#39;s probably in an advanced test is where we&amp;#39;re going to see this. And I actually Just updated these slides here on some of this. I guess I added it on mine, but not on yours because we&amp;#39;ve got takeaways coming up next. But, you know, you&amp;#39;re going max speed and max power, you know, simulates a real fight stress. But we&amp;#39;re rarely doing this right because of that high risk of injury, you know, a concussion, all that type of stuff, or training this fast. We don&amp;#39;t want to do it that much, but we have to do it sometimes. I&amp;#39;ll use the NFL and go, when are these guys hitting full speed? They&amp;#39;re. They&amp;#39;re hitting full speed, you know, in preseason. But once they get in season, it&amp;#39;s game day, right? It&amp;#39;s game day. And for us at Rocky Mountain, it&amp;#39;s throw down the gauntlet in that advanced testing zone. When somebody&amp;#39;s mentally, mentally and physically ready to do this, it&amp;#39;s going to defeat under belts, even though they might feel that they&amp;#39;re ready. This is a good deal of training that you&amp;#39;re getting up and going in that 80 to 100% stress level for people. You know, what&amp;#39;s, you know, ground fighting, stand up fighting, you know, bull in the ring type of thing where you&amp;#39;re doing self defense. That&amp;#39;s really tough to be going hard because, you know, you&amp;#39;re being a bad guy, you&amp;#39;re attacking the person. You&amp;#39;re not quite doing things that you would normally do, but you know, you got to defend yourself on those. So a bit of it is got to be you as the actual fighter, but you&amp;#39;re training somebody that&amp;#39;s trying to go really full tilt. So we&amp;#39;re not spending a lot of time in these. It&amp;#39;s not part of your daily or monthly training routine there. This is where you&amp;#39;ve got to train more. You know, I say it all the time, but that&amp;#39;s what it comes down to. A whole lot of the times that we just need to go slow. We don&amp;#39;t need to defeat somebody, especially as coaches, by going way too fast. It. We want to be able to, you know, give them the car keys when they&amp;#39;re ready for the car keys and not before. So I think this about wraps it up, especially without Josh. You know, it&amp;#39;s kind of a quick one here. I&amp;#39;ll look through a couple of my other notes. I guess I didn&amp;#39;t hit your takeaways or a little bit further down if you&amp;#39;re watching on YouTube. I added a couple things. You know, number one, takeaway, we train smart, we train safe, we train for real life, but nobody needs to Be injured unnecessarily because that is gonna happen when you&amp;#39;re going fast. You know, injuries do happen. It&amp;#39;s part of contact sports. Actually, a real beginner in our citizen defender class just said, you know, you guys are always hurt. Well, like sometimes, yeah, you&amp;#39;re banged up. I played contact sports since I was in the fifth grade. Yeah, my knees currently looking to be evaluated by the doctor and see what&amp;#39;s going on. But there was nothing in class that happened. It&amp;#39;s just, you know, wear and tear. That&amp;#39;s things that happen. And, you know, she was a little concerned about getting hurt, but I&amp;#39;m like, you know, we&amp;#39;re slowly ramping you up. You know, any good school you&amp;#39;re, you know, she was referring to watching the advanced people. I&amp;#39;m like, you&amp;#39;re comparing somebody that&amp;#39;s been in my gym 5 years plus is what she was comparing some students. I mean, some of them had even longer than that. As a beginner, you&amp;#39;re going to start off slow and easy. You know, that&amp;#39;s zone one and two. Nobody needs to get hurt and you need to be ready for that higher level training. Even though. Right. We all think we&amp;#39;re ready for that higher level training after, you know, our first intro class, especially the guys. Takeaway 2. How we train is how we fight. Right. You&amp;#39;ve got to be realistic, but you also have to be safe. And different aspects of this is just huge. You know, the habits you build in training, your timing, your composure, your discipline. I was actually just saying somebody today, like, settle down. You&amp;#39;re getting like really aggressive, trying to push your daughter around. And you know, her daughter&amp;#39;s, you know, teenager. I think she&amp;#39;s probably 17, 18. You&amp;#39;re, you&amp;#39;re just trying to go too hard. Just relax. You&amp;#39;re getting, you can see, I can see that you&amp;#39;re muscling the technique, like relax, you know, under pressure. We want to be relaxed. Let&amp;#39;s see, where do I leave off on that? Your timing, your composure, your discipline are exactly what will, what you will rely on when it counts. Train sloppy, fight sloppy. Right. You just kind of look like crap. You&amp;#39;re windmilling in and we all degrade. One of my favorite things, you know, to watch as Olympic weightlifting for this because you can see the person degrade as their weight goes up, you know, under that stress, under that load. And if you lift crappy and you have crappy technique, man, does it look totally horrible when you&amp;#39;re trying to get up to your max level or close, you know, an 80% max and 90% max. And your technique is sloppy. It is terrible. The best trained person is coming undone with stress and fatigue. So if you train that way and your punch is crappy, you know, in class, it&amp;#39;s going to be worse under stress. You know, don&amp;#39;t fool yourself. Train with purpose and you&amp;#39;ll respond with power and control. All right, guys, we&amp;#39;re going to wrap it up here. Want to keep that one under 30 minutes and we&amp;#39;re at like 17, so. Doing great without Josh, but not really. He misses insights on this one. But we will catch you guys next time. Let&amp;#39;s check out. I can let you guys check it out. We&amp;#39;ve got two of the same slides for you guys.

                <description><![CDATA[<p>Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the podcast. We are talking a bit about the RM SDF move here and just your footwork and fundamentals in Krav Maga, just had, you know, two second degree black belts. Just, you know, we&#39;re doing some basic 101 stuff today, and it&#39;s not also basic when you get down into it.</p><p><br></p><p>There&#39;s just so much more, you know, and how much you want to focus and really get good and get a masterful understanding of what you&#39;re doing, because there&#39;s just so many degrees of learning, and you got to just focus on that. Guys, we see people, um, with toes on the ground, you know, no good contact, and it takes some time, you know, how much bandwidth do you want to put into your fight stance, into your self defense?</p><p><br></p><p>Hey, you&#39;re going to be better, is what I told one of the coaches. You know, students come in once or twice a week, and, you know, maybe they&#39;re spending just that. That&#39;s the only time they&#39;re focused. Maybe, you know, here and there, they think about something. Maybe on the drive home, whatever, they&#39;re driving to class, and maybe they&#39;re thinking about it, and then you get the people that are thinking about it all the time.</p><p><br></p><p>How much bandwidth are you capable of or want to devote to your self defense training and, you know, to second, uh, degree black belts today? Just really getting deepest into just your fight stance and the timing of that punch coming from that krav maga non ready position. Right. I wasn&#39;t ready to defend myself, and I need to go from a neutral stance.</p><p><br></p><p>Those of you guys don&#39;t know it, essentially just staying in their toes, kind of in around the same line, and you&#39;re bursting into that fight stance, sending a weapon, possibly addressing a stick defense, a knife attack, and you&#39;re doing a 360 or a redirection against that stance and the timing of that punch and where your foot is when that punch lands, you can really get deep into the weeds and get a deeper understanding of it, you know?</p><p><br></p><p>How much bandwidth do you want to put into it? Some people want to put in a whole ton. Some people just want to just be a little bit better. Hey, as long as you&#39;re doing something, in my opinion, at least you&#39;re better. You know, you&#39;re spending 2 hours a week focused on your self defense.</p><p><br></p><p>That&#39;s better than zero, um, that most people do out there. You know, if you&#39;re doing any martial art, I give you credit for doing it. Do something, man. Just get a little bit better. Be able to protect yourself and your family, it blows my mind on men that, you know, especially, um, women need to defend themselves.</p><p><br></p><p>But I&#39;m a guy, so I&#39;m speaking from my standpoint that, man, you gotta be able to defend your family. And there&#39;s such a misconception out there, you know, I gotta fight in 8th grade. You think you can defend yourself at 40? You&#39;re kidding yourself. You got to do something.</p><p><br></p><p>And that&#39;s where, you know, my passion for self defense and krav maga and where it started, you know, go home. I want to be well rounded. Um, I feel, you know, different Krav maga schools offer different things. You know, what we do here at RMSDF is encompass. You know, the firearm, self defense, you know, whether it&#39;s on the ground, standing up, you know, weapon defenses, there&#39;s a lot of competition stuff, that&#39;s great.</p><p><br></p><p>But if you&#39;re not with that weapon all of the time, you know, uh, all of the time, a majority of the training time, it&#39;s just words. You&#39;re just talking. Yeah, this is what I would do against the knife. But if you&#39;re not doing it on a weekly basis or on a regular basis, I think weekly, um.</p><p><br></p><p>You&#39;re fooling yourself, guys. It&#39;s, yeah, I&#39;m sorry, but you are. Um, it&#39;s ridiculous. Um, it drives me as, as much crazy as just people out there in politics and, you know, getting tribal. I mean, just tell me why, um, you want to vote for somebody, you know, give me a good reason.</p><p><br></p><p>I see just so much out there that people just get caught up in and tribal on krav maga being the best self defense system. No, it&#39;s anything, guys, we can borrow from anything. Just a name. Just like the republican party. The Democratic Party. Oh, man, some of them have just become names.</p><p><br></p><p>And it&#39;s driving me crazy because I think, uh, there&#39;s a lot of people going down the wrong road. You know, big corporations are beating us all up. No matter what party you are, you know, we&#39;ve got to just look out for the common good. But, man, that stuff drives me crazy.</p><p><br></p><p>Um, probably more crazy than, you know, people defending themselves and getting tribal about their martial art. It&#39;s got to be well rounded, guys. And that&#39;s what drew me into Krav Maga, and that&#39;s, you know, our brand of Krav maga. You know, some, some schools get too caught up in the workout of it, and, you know, that&#39;s great.</p><p><br></p><p>I love to be in good shape because I got to tell you, it has saved me more times insparring and going to instructor training is just being in good shape is going to get you a, uh, out of a lot of trouble because you&#39;re conditioned, you&#39;re stronger or strong as you could be.</p><p><br></p><p>So, you know, focus on that stuff. What else were we talking about? Oh, yeah, our move. So a lot of people, um, let them, uh, you know, their minds wander. We have decided at RMSDF, my wife Jenny and I, to sell our building and go to a smaller location.</p><p><br></p><p>Like I said in my first announcement, I&#39;ve been wanting to get back to my roots on Nantucket island where I started teaching. And in a small place, you don&#39;t need a big thing. You know, a lot of martial arts, uh, school owners can, you know, get caught up in bigger is better and, you know, look at 24 hours fitness.</p><p><br></p><p>They&#39;re giant and they&#39;re crowded. And how much attention do you get in there? Well, you&#39;re really not paying for any. You&#39;re just paying to come in and use the equipment. We are really trying to get back to where we were or where I started from, and it&#39;s small, no nonsense.</p><p><br></p><p>We&#39;ve decided to, um, sell the building and invest that in a 1031, um, exchange and do an investment property. We are not buying the building that we&#39;re moving to on Malibu. That&#39;s what a lot of people have thought. We&#39;re not buying that building where, um, you know, you might say, defer diversifying.</p><p><br></p><p>Um, we&#39;re just doing something different, um, and know, working on not killing yourself. You know, the bigger your gym, the more members you have, the more, the more, the more. And it&#39;s not, ah, necessarily profitable and it&#39;s not necessarily the best experience for your members. You know, big gyms are hard to handle.</p><p><br></p><p>You need a lot of, you know, you need staff, you need square footage and that square footage in Castle Rock is expensive. So, you know, some gymshe, uh, you know, I get into, you know, are they doing it full time? You know, if they&#39;re not great, you know, you got another side of income.</p><p><br></p><p>So, hey, your gyms just kind of fun, a little bit of side income, you know, that&#39;s great. But people doing it full time, you know, it&#39;s super competitive. I think a lot of gyms out there, um, despite in Castle Rock and across the country, get caught up and man, they all beat each other up over price.</p><p><br></p><p>I got to tell you, our prices are on our website. You know, you can check them out right there. Other gyms, you guys go ahead and check it out. Um, stop competing, um, price, they just lowball, low ball because and just, it degrades the whole thing. Um, we uh, don&#39;t have to do that anymore.</p><p><br></p><p>That&#39;s, you know, part of our move that we don&#39;t have to be this uh, ultra competitive because we need so many members in a larger gym. That&#39;s just the way it is. Know, uh, either that you get a big ginormous space in Castle Rock and all your members are paying five or $600 a month.</p><p><br></p><p>Um, that&#39;s how that math would work. Otherwise your gym, you know, if there, it&#39;s a $100 that&#39;s, you know, way below average. You know, you&#39;re looking at more like, you know, the 150 to the 180s is kind of the national average of what I see in research and data that comes in from uh, our gym software and other gym software&#39;s of what people are charging uh, from their databases.</p><p><br></p><p>So that I guess hopefully answers a lot of questions. We are going to be, it&#39;s uh, I put on the website, I think it&#39;s 282 Malibu street, uh, unit a four. We are going to be moving to the back building because our building and the build out of their second floor offices, not my office, as you can see, a little bit different setup behind me.</p><p><br></p><p>I&#39;ve moved into our loft which uh, hasn&#39;t been used in a long time. So just utilizing that space and giving my wife, uh, when she is working from home, our home office, so we&#39;re not kind of conflicting and uh, I can hang out, listen to Joe Rogan and uh, not bother her or whatever else I&#39;m doing, uh, when we are working at home.</p><p><br></p><p>So I&#39;ve moved up into the loft and you know, that was a thing with that other building. We had a lot, we had a giant kind of private training room that we used once in a while. Square ah, footage is expensive in Castle Rock. So, you know, we decided that it was time, uh, to sell that and simplify, simplify.</p><p><br></p><p>That is the reason, um, and try not to work so much when you need so many members. You need to put in a lot of effort into that gym. Not that we&#39;re going to be taking away, um, effort. And what we&#39;re offering all of you, we really want to keep honing in and just specializing with.</p><p><br></p><p>I&#39;d rather teach a small group of people and really get to know them. That&#39;s the type of gym I started at. And you know, RMSDF, uh, has been pretty big over the years and even me not knowing people in different classes. So that is what we&#39;re looking for. I guess so.</p><p><br></p><p>Um, I think it&#39;s time to wrap this sucker up. If you&#39;d like to be a guest on the show, if you&#39;re one of our members, you&#39;re out there, let, um, me know. Always looking for that type of stuff. One of the hardest things of this podcast.</p><p><br></p><p>All right, and as always, you guys can support this podcast by shopping at the RMSDF store. Shop dot r m s d f for all the rocky mountain gear. If you&#39;re looking for the clear sky training, check out shop. Clear goodness. Uh, I can&#39;t talk today. Shop clearsky training.</p><p><br></p><p>You can also train online. I highly encourage all you members to get on there. We&#39;re putting lots of videos and you can train at home and just review. And again, the bandwidth. How much bandwidth do you want to put in it? You can put in more and just watch that video or watch the videos.</p><p><br></p><p>I can&#39;t talk today, guys. I got to wrap it up. Clear sky dot training. And if you guys need supplements, really help me out here. We have suck less co everything from bcaas to protein. It will help, you know, supplement what you do. So a lot of good stuff there that&#39;ll really help support the podcast.</p><p><br></p><p>We have, you know, gotten rid of the partnerships and done it ourselves. And, uh, no longer doing, uh, well, you can still get any of the other stuff, prestige labs, really good stuff. But we&#39;ve decided, you know, to kind of cut out the middleman, so to speak, and do our own supplements.</p><p><br></p><p>So check it out, guys. We got some good incentives if you guys are a member and want to start a subscription. So check it out. Suckless co. All right, guys, train more, suck less. Get out there and do something. Have a good rest of your day. Thanks for listening.</p>]]></description>

It&amp;#39;s, yeah, I&amp;#39;m sorry, but you are. Um, it&amp;#39;s ridiculous. Um, it drives me as, as much crazy as just people out there in politics and, you know, getting tribal. I mean, just tell me why, um, you want to vote for somebody, you know, give me a good reason.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I see just so much out there that people just get caught up in and tribal on krav maga being the best self defense system. No, it&amp;#39;s anything, guys, we can borrow from anything. Just a name. Just like the republican party. The Democratic Party. Oh, man, some of them have just become names.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And it&amp;#39;s driving me crazy because I think, uh, there&amp;#39;s a lot of people going down the wrong road. You know, big corporations are beating us all up. No matter what party you are, you know, we&amp;#39;ve got to just look out for the common good. But, man, that stuff drives me crazy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Um, probably more crazy than, you know, people defending themselves and getting tribal about their martial art. It&amp;#39;s got to be well rounded, guys. And that&amp;#39;s what drew me into Krav Maga, and that&amp;#39;s, you know, our brand of Krav maga. You know, some, some schools get too caught up in the workout of it, and, you know, that&amp;#39;s great.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love to be in good shape because I got to tell you, it has saved me more times insparring and going to instructor training is just being in good shape is going to get you a, uh, out of a lot of trouble because you&amp;#39;re conditioned, you&amp;#39;re stronger or strong as you could be.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, you know, focus on that stuff. What else were we talking about? Oh, yeah, our move. So a lot of people, um, let them, uh, you know, their minds wander. We have decided at RMSDF, my wife Jenny and I, to sell our building and go to a smaller location.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Like I said in my first announcement, I&amp;#39;ve been wanting to get back to my roots on Nantucket island where I started teaching. And in a small place, you don&amp;#39;t need a big thing. You know, a lot of martial arts, uh, school owners can, you know, get caught up in bigger is better and, you know, look at 24 hours fitness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They&amp;#39;re giant and they&amp;#39;re crowded. And how much attention do you get in there? Well, you&amp;#39;re really not paying for any. You&amp;#39;re just paying to come in and use the equipment. We are really trying to get back to where we were or where I started from, and it&amp;#39;s small, no nonsense.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#39;ve decided to, um, sell the building and invest that in a 1031, um, exchange and do an investment property. We are not buying the building that we&amp;#39;re moving to on Malibu. That&amp;#39;s what a lot of people have thought. We&amp;#39;re not buying that building where, um, you know, you might say, defer diversifying.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Um, we&amp;#39;re just doing something different, um, and know, working on not killing yourself. You know, the bigger your gym, the more members you have, the more, the more, the more. And it&amp;#39;s not, ah, necessarily profitable and it&amp;#39;s not necessarily the best experience for your members. You know, big gyms are hard to handle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You need a lot of, you know, you need staff, you need square footage and that square footage in Castle Rock is expensive. So, you know, some gymshe, uh, you know, I get into, you know, are they doing it full time? You know, if they&amp;#39;re not great, you know, you got another side of income.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, hey, your gyms just kind of fun, a little bit of side income, you know, that&amp;#39;s great. But people doing it full time, you know, it&amp;#39;s super competitive. I think a lot of gyms out there, um, despite in Castle Rock and across the country, get caught up and man, they all beat each other up over price.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I got to tell you, our prices are on our website. You know, you can check them out right there. Other gyms, you guys go ahead and check it out. Um, stop competing, um, price, they just lowball, low ball because and just, it degrades the whole thing. Um, we uh, don&amp;#39;t have to do that anymore.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#39;s, you know, part of our move that we don&amp;#39;t have to be this uh, ultra competitive because we need so many members in a larger gym. That&amp;#39;s just the way it is. Know, uh, either that you get a big ginormous space in Castle Rock and all your members are paying five or $600 a month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Um, that&amp;#39;s how that math would work. Otherwise your gym, you know, if there, it&amp;#39;s a $100 that&amp;#39;s, you know, way below average. You know, you&amp;#39;re looking at more like, you know, the 150 to the 180s is kind of the national average of what I see in research and data that comes in from uh, our gym software and other gym software&amp;#39;s of what people are charging uh, from their databases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So that I guess hopefully answers a lot of questions. We are going to be, it&amp;#39;s uh, I put on the website, I think it&amp;#39;s 282 Malibu street, uh, unit a four. We are going to be moving to the back building because our building and the build out of their second floor offices, not my office, as you can see, a little bit different setup behind me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve moved into our loft which uh, hasn&amp;#39;t been used in a long time. So just utilizing that space and giving my wife, uh, when she is working from home, our home office, so we&amp;#39;re not kind of conflicting and uh, I can hang out, listen to Joe Rogan and uh, not bother her or whatever else I&amp;#39;m doing, uh, when we are working at home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I&amp;#39;ve moved up into the loft and you know, that was a thing with that other building. We had a lot, we had a giant kind of private training room that we used once in a while. Square ah, footage is expensive in Castle Rock. So, you know, we decided that it was time, uh, to sell that and simplify, simplify.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That is the reason, um, and try not to work so much when you need so many members. You need to put in a lot of effort into that gym. Not that we&amp;#39;re going to be taking away, um, effort. And what we&amp;#39;re offering all of you, we really want to keep honing in and just specializing with.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d rather teach a small group of people and really get to know them. That&amp;#39;s the type of gym I started at. And you know, RMSDF, uh, has been pretty big over the years and even me not knowing people in different classes. So that is what we&amp;#39;re looking for. I guess so.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Um, I think it&amp;#39;s time to wrap this sucker up. If you&amp;#39;d like to be a guest on the show, if you&amp;#39;re one of our members, you&amp;#39;re out there, let, um, me know. Always looking for that type of stuff. One of the hardest things of this podcast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All right, and as always, you guys can support this podcast by shopping at the RMSDF store. Shop dot r m s d f for all the rocky mountain gear. If you&amp;#39;re looking for the clear sky training, check out shop. Clear goodness. Uh, I can&amp;#39;t talk today. Shop clearsky training.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can also train online. I highly encourage all you members to get on there. We&amp;#39;re putting lots of videos and you can train at home and just review. And again, the bandwidth. How much bandwidth do you want to put in it? You can put in more and just watch that video or watch the videos.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can&amp;#39;t talk today, guys. I got to wrap it up. Clear sky dot training. And if you guys need supplements, really help me out here. We have suck less co everything from bcaas to protein. It will help, you know, supplement what you do. So a lot of good stuff there that&amp;#39;ll really help support the podcast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have, you know, gotten rid of the partnerships and done it ourselves. And, uh, no longer doing, uh, well, you can still get any of the other stuff, prestige labs, really good stuff. But we&amp;#39;ve decided, you know, to kind of cut out the middleman, so to speak, and do our own supplements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So check it out, guys. We got some good incentives if you guys are a member and want to start a subscription. So check it out. Suckless co. All right, guys, train more, suck less. Get out there and do something. Have a good rest of your day. Thanks for listening.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
