Very Fit 60 Year Old




I refuse to let age be a hindrance to my commitment to be fit enough to survive an assault when I am old, beside the fact that training is good for your body and mind, feeling confident to have enough strength to be able to execute techniques is my goal to the day I die from old age, no street punk or gang banger will ever get the possibility to assault me without severe bodily damage as punishment, even if I am 60 or 70 year old. 

Magnitude 8.9 Survive & Thrive Clubbell Training


Read the complete article on



You’re at the kitchen counter filling your plate full of the mouthwatering food that was made for dinner. The smell of home and the solace it provides washes over you with a much needed moment of reprieve. Laughter rings through the air from your loved ones, reminding you, amongst all the bombardment of a modern age, what is truly important. With a smile on your face and an uplifted heart you make your way to the table to join them. One second, you hold a vision of your life’s fulfillment, the next, it gets ripped away from you in the blink of an eye. Your worst nightmare, a magnitude 8.9 earthquake takes your legs out from under you, shorts out all sources of light, and turns the structure that is meant to make you feel secure into a death trap as it shatters around you like a house of cards.

Spartan Training Gear Goddess Hoplite vest




For those women brave enough to challenge themselves, test if they can survive an assault, we have a set of the Spartan Training Gear Goddess Hoplite vest and complete protection from head to toe. Fitted for the today’ woman warrior, who need the fastest way to learn how to defend themselves in a busy life with children, job or studies. We can provide both, the functional skills set and the gear to train and fight hard without injuries that will inhibit everyday life.

At Copenhagen Combatives our goal is to acquire functional defence skills fast with the use of non compliant resistance training, no katas or forms, only technical training with aliveness and oppositional partner training. This method is used in our AMOK! training were this method comes from, in our Kratos Combatives training fighting with weapons from any time and place in history, predominately European weapons.


What the Shoulders Say About Us The most ignored area of our body communicates elegantly if we will but observe.



From:
http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/spycatcher/201205/what-the-shoulders-say-about-us



This part of the article is the most valuable information for those who are interested in self-defence.

“The shoulders communicate vitality but they can also communicate dominance and hierarchy. Over my career I have interviewed a lot of criminals and I always made it a point to ask how they assessed their victims before they acted out. Over and over three things stood out, how their victims looked (frail, weak, not athletic), their overall situational awareness (never go after someone who sees you first), and their arm swing (vigorous arm movement or passive subdued). And so to a criminal, our own intra-species predators, as Robert Hare would call them, how the shoulders look is a key factor for those who seek to prey on us. As one psychopath said to me, and this was very telling, “silverbacks don’t go after silverbacks, they go after everything else.” Good point.”
