Even if you take the THREE use cases at face value (which I don't) that is not a large enough sample size to be legitimate. Yet I'm the illiterate one here.
Nothing you or anyone else (including the video) has said have addressed the 'no live contact' problem. You can't learn anything without practice and experience. You can't learn the piano by not playing the piano. You can't learn to paint without actually painting. You can't be a communist without study and practice. You can't fight people without fighting people. Do you understand? MA is not an exception to this rule! Practicing on a log like the guy in the video is not a live opponent. Not sure if you're aware of this but logs can't fight back.
Any dumbass can use weapons/dick kicks. There is nothing novel at all about this, it isn't the cheat code you think it is. A real martial artist isn't just going to throw a knife away lol. I'd also bet the guy who kicks REAL opponents (aka not logs) for a living will be better at dick kicks.
He never said anything about cardio, he said nothing about movement, and noise is irrelevant. Did you watch the video?
Now all I want to do is promote REAL self defense for comrades, because I don't want them to get their ass beat. You and a couple others seem pretty upset about that and decided to take personal shots at me instead of rebutting my critiques. Sounds like a personal issue you should investigate.
Really the only two people who fall for this crap are the most gullible people on the planet who are looking for a quick solution that doesn't exist, and actual children. I've said what's needed to be said on the subject. I don't have time to argue with fools and children.
I did, 3 random articles in a language I can't read flashing across the screen isn't exactly hard evidence of this working. IDF trains in Krav Maga, Spetznaz train in Systema, this does not change the fact these are woo-woo bullshit fake MA.
You need to be able to practice on live opponents. You can't practice these things on live opponents. If you can't practice you can't use it in a critical situation. There's nothing special about dirty fighting, someone who does real MA can do it better because of the live experience. This guy is selling you nonsense that'll get you killed. Go ahead and try out his open scissor punch technique on a log, you're going to break your hand doing that.
I have a right to speak because I've done both real MA and scam shit this guy's selling. One works one doesn't. If people don't want to believe me that's cool. Go ahead and chop down the forest with your badass scissor punches. If you try that against anyone with any experience at all you're going to get hospitalized.
I know a lot of people IRL (including myself) that was roped into a Bullshido scam before. They will take your money and give you terrible advice that could potentially get you killed. I'm just trying to look out for the comrades and warn people of this scam. While giving them real alternatives to self defense. 👍 This isn't criticism towards you, it's criticism towards the whole Bullshido industry this video promotes.
Edit: My comment was angry and unproductive.
Let me rephrase: Comrades, please for the love of God don't fall for scams like this. If you want to learn self defense it's going to take a lot of practice against actual opponents. Go do kickboxing, BJJ, Karate, anything that actually has you practice it against others. Do not fall for hucksters like the man in the video. There are no shortcuts or secret moves that'll make you a badass. Like anything else in life you need to put a lot of time and (live) practice in order to get good.
