Download or read book The Systema Warrior Guidebook written by Joseph Mayberry and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-24 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most complex yet simple, challenging and rewarding paths in the vast universe of martial arts is Systema, the Russian Martial Art. Systema is more than just a martial art. It is a complete and ever evolving process of mental preparation, martial training and health and longevity maintenance. Systema conforms to the individual, rather than asking the individual to conform to it. This allows people with differing abilities, and what some would call disabilities, to excel. The individual develops movement and applications of its principles which are not only suited to their apparent deficiencies, but are simultaneously more efficient, applicable, and effective for that individual. It is a way. It is a path. A path that potentially can change not only the way one fights, trains, walks, and breathes, but can also change how one conducts himself in all aspects of his life. This is your guide. All proceeds from the sale of this book goes to the Systema Warrior Foundation for the teaching of the Russian Martial Art to disabled children free of charge.
Download or read book A Warrior s Guide to Self Defense written by Kyle Swinehart and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a practical self-defense guide targeted towards the untrained individual who desires to embody a warrior mentality, and learn how to survive vicious life and death situations with the principles and strategies of close quarters fighting. It was written by former Marine Corps infantry machine gunner and martial arts instructor Kyle Swinehart. The sole purpose of his self-defense guide is to increase your chances of surviving a violent assault to the maximum potential. This is not a style of martial arts; these fighting tactics are extremely violent in nature because they were born on the battlefield, and designed for combating the most savage and deadly encounters in real world scenarios. It combines human biological instincts with self-control to form a completely fluid fighting strategy that is perpetually changing based on your threat and the environment around you. In this warrior's manual, you will learn how your body responds in an emergency, and what you can do to prepare yourself for violent combat. Kyle will describe the advantages of embracing the chaos, and how to respond to being assaulted. You will learn about the systems that allow your body to function, and the most effective way to target these systems on your enemy and successfully shut them off during a physical confrontation. Kyle will use simple physics to demonstrate the importance of speed in motion, and how to produce these effects with your body in the most efficient way. You will learn about his Spartan Defense, a close quarters maneuver that will maximize your offensive and defensive capabilities. He will also cover the various ranges of fighting in combat, and the safest way to traverse between them. You will also read about several of the most quick and effective methods of quickly taking your opponent down in close quarters, and the best strategies for fighting multiple opponents. This self-defense guide also contains numerous escape and evasion tactics Kyle learned in the Marine Corps infantry. You will learn how to be a hard target, what to do when someone is following you, and how to survive being kidnapped. It also includes various methods of escaping the most common enemy restraints. Kyle also teaches what your objectives are when you are assaulted with a deadly weapon, and how you must respond to being seriously injured by your attacker. This incredibly informative self-defense guide is packed full of tactics and knowledge that can potentially save your life, and should be available to everyone.

Download or read book Continuing Actions written by Dan Sheehan and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've paid our dues in service to our country-and earned scars we bear with pride. But something is missing from our understanding of these marks. Our scars, both visible and invisible, are not just reminders of the incredible highs and lows of our past. They are much more than that.They are the gateway to our future. Memories of combat do not have to be curses. To those brave enough to face them, they offer the means to move forward in life, not burdened by past experiences but transformed by wisdom paid for in blood, sweat, and tears. These opportunities pose serious challenges rarely mentioned in our training-a knowledge gap that leaves us exposed to needless and predictable injuries. Closing this gap requires us to take action, individual action. We've not been trained for the phase of the Warrior's Journey that continues beyond the battlefield. This book is a reconnaissance into the dangers, and opportunities, of this final stage.The challenges of coming home are real. These Continuing Actions can help you overcome them and finally, fully, return home.Continuing Actions: A Warrior's Guide to Coming Home is Dan Sheehan's second book. His first book, After Action: The True Story of a Cobra Pilot's Journey, won multiple awards and continues to help many to understand the human costs of going to war.Drawing on his own experiences and the works of mental health professionals, scholars, and other veterans, Dan shows how warriors have always had to face challenges when coming home after combat. Far from aberrations that effect only the weak, these challenges are integral to any warrior's journey. Unfortunately, modern warriors have not been trained to deal this them--or even told that they exist. With a Foreword by Dr. Jonathan Shay, an esteemed leader in PTSD research and treatment and bestselling author, Continuing Actions exposes this gap in preparation and provides pragmatic solutions for how each individual veteran and active duty service member can overcome it themselves.
Download or read book The Complete Book of Combat Systema written by Kevin Secours and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998 while changing after a kali training session, a friend approached Kevin Secours with a videocassette and asked, "You ever seen the Russian martial arts?" Looking at the Cyrillic label on the video, Secours asked, "Any good?" "It's interesting," the friend replied. "Weird as hell but interesting." Little did Secours know that tape would be his introduction to a 16-year (and counting) journey into the unorthodox world of the Russian martial arts, including years of high-level training under top Russian masters. On the video Secours saw mobility exercises unlike anything he had ever experienced. As he was to learn, the uniqueness of the Russian martial arts stemmed from the uniqueness of the country itself. The Cold War in the 1950s, during which the superpowers battled for supremacy, was the final forge that refined the Russian martial arts into what they are today. In anticipation of global warfare, the Soviet government commissioned combat researchers to travel throughout the world to study different approaches. They tested these methods and integrated the best concepts with their own native traditions. This period of development led to the creation of distinct Soviet martial arts, including Sport Sambo, Combat Sambo, and Samoz, which was later modified and became known simply as Systema (literally "the System"). Approaching Systema from a decidedly Western perspective, Secours pressure-tested the strengths and benefits of every concept and technique, and ultimately took only what served him. He built his Combat Systema curriculum on a scientific approach to bio-mechanics, breath training, and combat psychology. In The Complete Book of Combat Systema, he keeps things practical, provable, and profitable for you to incorporate what works into your self-defense training.

The information and wisdom is also gleaned from over forty years spent in the martial arts and gaining over fifteen black belts in various arts. During that time, I have run numerous academies and been able to work as private protection for numerous VIPs, including the stars of film and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, Arrow, and others.The lessons I've learned have shown me that, despite the many obstacles that make life feel impossible at times, there is a way forward for anyone dreaming of becoming an elite-level performer, athlete, businessman, or anyone simply seeking a happier, fuller life. I have been low and discovered what it took to get back up. And I have had people from all across the spectrum come to me for guidance, and I have shown them the steps that I took, and that other masters before me took.We are all down at some point. It is inevitable in this life. But there is a process to recovery, steps that one can take to redeem one's body, mind and spirit. This book is a collection of those steps, a set of guidelines I have found to be universally beneficial to those that have decided to opt out of the quitter's mentality and finally seek a higher awareness and greater happiness. A sigma personality.I have taught soldiers, and soldiers have taught me. I have been in the company of killers and monks, and found that there are a surprising number of foundational habits that they all have in common, habits allowing them to reach a higher state and keep themselves sane, aware, healthy and clearheaded.In this book you will learn techniques on breathing and exercising more intelligently, but you will also see highlighted the many ways you can alter your thinking to reach greater physical and mental goals.This book is not just about how you should think differently about your body, but also how you should rethink your thinking, and begin a journey of self-discovery that, if you're lucky, will last until your dying day. There is a way forward, a path one can take to rejuvenate themselves and ascend past the normal limitations set not just by others, but by oneself.It is not hopeless. You are not hopeless.

CAPABILITY means possessing the knowledge and training to act correctly and effectively under any circumstances, using skills both innate and learned, to defeat human enemies and challenges of environment - and achieve success, whatever the odds. The combination of these qualities creates the warrior - a person whose greatest asset is not the mere capacity to apply violence, but the ability to walk tall, confident and unafraid in the face of any danger.
