what would you recommend for striking training is an effective real application practice boxing Muay Thai mocha that’s real easy start with boxing because it’s easier to learn you don’t have to throw big kicks but it’s very effective martial art boxing and then once you get decent at that you now you can go into more time and learn how to use your legs your elbows your knees your head so there yeah agree the boxing – and this is strange but it’s absolutely true is if you if you don’t have experience throwing punches and landing punches it’s it’s surprisingly hard yeah to punch someone’s face and land it effectively yeah yeah you know how like um movies you know I saw some a guy real lot so I used to punch people and then he’d always shake his hand like oh yeah like I hurt my hand every that was kind of one of the funny I’m sure I’m MacGyver there trying to make like Oh MacGyver such a softy in that way that’s hard work he’s hardcore like his brain like super smart smart you know he doesn’t carry a gun you know he’s not that guy anyone has a paper clip he hasn’t bring yeah exactly right paper clip nonetheless that’s kind of what that was indicating but I thought it taught kind of a good lesson where if you you know you watch on TV guys just punching guys in the face and the head but you can especially if you don’t have experience punching you can probably will break your hands yeah or hurt your hand very sure so if you if you go trained boxing even just once a week little some boxing or whatever you really get to learn like okay if I start throwing these punches the difference it’s just like jujitsu like six months of jiu-jitsu destroys someone with no jujitsu six months of boxing does pretty damn good against someone with no boxing for sure yeah yeah the only thing with boxing and like striking you can kinda and not really I mean people gonna get mad at even saying this but I’ll mean this like straight up literally but in the streets you can have kind of some training you know like if you get in a bunch of street fights ah yeah yeah yeah and you young people in the face you learn exactly right you learn what you learn actually mostly from being a legit Street Fighter as you learn the mindset ya know as stupid as that sounds but here’s what you learned five points this guy as fast as I can before he’s expecting it and I’m a sucker punch him you’ll become a good street fighter that’s that’s what street fighting is street fighting a lot is done on aggression you know and if you get in my face and I punch you in the face you know if you look at me and say what’s your problem and I hit you yeah that that’s what I really like a good experienced street fighter that kicks a lot of people’s asses that’s what they do they are over aggressive they don’t care about getting a fight they’re not thinking about their fighting and so when you say hey what’s your crack or the guy says hey what do you look crack that’s a that’s what a that’s what a street fighter it is they’re gonna take action very quickly yeah that’s so you can learn a lot from that so when you take that in someone you know when someone shows up at the MMA gym and this is we know I got a lot of street fights yeah and if they’re that’s most the time that’s bullshit but if it’s not and they’re actually a guy that’s been in a lot of fights and it’s only so helpful because now they’ve got someone that they’re gonna shake hands with and then engage in combat so they’ve lost the one and I’m not saying it’s a not a real thing you know some of my friends growing up were really good street fighters and this is how I’m saying this with kind of a little bit of knowledge is my friends that were really good street fighters what was made them good street fighters wasn’t that they studied boxing wasn’t that they studied you did too it was cuz they had a very aggressive mindset and so someone would say hey what’s your crack and they were going ballistic right right you know or someone’s someone says who do you look at Brock and that’s it and it wasn’t actually it wasn’t crack it was crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack run away or or you know that’s so yes that’s what a street fighter has they have a mindset of they have been in fights before but they know that the aggression will take him a long way yeah it’s kind of like a guy in let’s say basketball who you know he has a home court or something and he just shoots a lot of shots you know yeah like he knows he knows how to make those shots but then now you put them on the bass part you guys military training with dribbling or anything yes yes that is true that is your you you can learn the mechanics yeah and then your own ball in your own organics but the mechanics and then you could and the mechanics are gonna be almost less helpful yeah that’s what I’ve been actually understanding the mind what’s gonna happen in a fight now the mechanics will be more helpful in basketball but it’s not once you get in a real game the first basketball game I ever played I knew the mechanics and I got destroyed every pass I threw for the first 10 passes I threw got picked off and guys going down the other end of the court and scored I’m not even kidding that happened my dad was like a Hoosiers kind of guy dear see the movie Hoosiers exactly you’re gonna work the mechanics gonna work ball handling you’re gonna work passing not shooting no no sparring or what is it called scrimmaging right you just gonna learn the mechanics and then that would have been cool if I would have had a coach that had a different mindset but the coach had the same who’s your mindset as my dad which is mechanics mechanics mechanics so I worked on all these mechanics I had really good ball handling a good passing and then I got it was the first game I played in basketball I had never actually was all maybe I’d done a couple live games but I had never played against anyone skilled dribbled down the court may I was a point guard dribble down the court held up my fingers about okay we’re gonna run play number three went over the side threw the ball and you just picked it off and the kid that I was playing against was a really good player that other guy that was guarding me just destroyed me and the reason was didn’t have the experience of live games now I actually brought that mentality when I was running training I always you know you can sit there and learning mechanics in the kill house so you can sit there and learn the mechanics of doing immediate action drills out in the field the mechanics are good you have to know them but you have to also be live and that’s why I loved and when they win the SEAL Teams when we went from just having live rounds and paper targets which everyone was that was like the highest form hey we try and we train with live fire that’s the best thing and that’s what I was raised to believe as soon as I saw we had two simunition and then once I realized how effective simulation was I was like you don’t even need simulation evening to run around literally saying bang bang at each other but you got people moving and it’s gonna help you so that that mindset came from trying to not be just be Hoosiers you know Hoosiers that the movie Hoosiers a basketball movie it’s an awesome movie but the beginning is all just drilling and my dad cuz I didn’t play basketball incidental and play basketball he said okay so he’s teaching me how to play basketball but he was like who’s your guy you’re gonna be good defense they’re gonna be good at ball handling and and then unfortunately coach was the same way my first coach was the same way hmm seventh grader eighth grade just like hey Hoosiers yeah we’d have good defense and I dribble down the court so be careful about but someone that played street ball someone that played street ball yeah and and and didn’t no one ever taught him ball handling no one ever taught him the theory behind a zone defense yeah that guy would have done infinitely better than I did in my first basketball game my dad must have it hanging his little shame we must have been what a loser how did I raise this kid yeah yeah sure the same same kind of thing yeah those street fighters they know how it feels to like land a punch they know they have this kind of intuitive gauge on you know kind of distance in a way you know just they’ve been there yeah and so that’s why will you train people for anything even in the business world like don’t just train the people the mechanics of a conversation that they’re supposed to have if their leader just don’t train them on the mechanics here’s what you say read this script no put them live fire them in there yeah Hold’em live fire role play with them out and sit with you while you’re going through something have them go in there and talk to somebody that you told them how to act and act all crazy you do that do that with him
