I would recommend
the Primal Warrior DVD’s, it is among my top 10 DVD’s and covers not only
techniques but the far more interesting subjects as predatory mindset and body
mechanics, IMHO it is better to understand a few basic body mechanics than 1000
killer techniques, the reason is that fighting is chaotic and where and which position
and posture you or your opponent are in can be unique every time, it is easier
to improvise than to try to find the specific techniques that are appropriate
to a specific attack.
I remember my
first MMA training class, where I submitted a far more experienced opponent by
improvising an arm lock with my legs that was not a proper technique from side
mount, I have been lucky to improvise locks by seeing an opportunity (a body part)
and just try it out, they where all based on my limited basic knowledge about anatomy
which I have studied to know how ligaments, limbs works and what would injure
or permanent damage them. Most of the time I was always dominated and my 1st
single goal was just to survive as long time as I could, as the majority were
world BJJ champion, but defeat taught me how to survive and avoid being
submitted, the day I could roll and not tap out before switching partners was
awesome as it was my goal, some of the more experienced did not like it and against
the rules went for leg locks which I didn’t complain about but managed to escape
every time, suddenly I could be attacker than only trying to be defensive.
