    Krav Maga

    Generally, there are no rules in Krav Maga, as it is a defense fighting technique which is not regulated, but utilized to keep the user safe and incapacitate the opponent by any means necessary. Men and women generally undergo the same drills. It has no sporting federation, and there are no official uniforms or attire, although some organizations do recognize progress through training with rank badges, different levels, and belts.

    General principles include:
    * Counter attacking as soon as possible (or attacking preemptively).
    * Targeting attacks to the body's most vulnerable points such as the eyes, jaw, throat, groin, knee etc.
    * Neutralizing the opponent as quickly as possible by responding with an unbroken stream of counter attacks and if necessary a take down/joint break.
    * Maintaining awareness of surroundings while dealing with the threat in order to look for escape routes, further attackers, objects that could be used to defend or help attack and so on.

    Basic training is a mixed aerobic and anaerobic workout. Protective pads and other personal protection equipment may be used during initial training. Scenarios are used to train personnel for situations typically encountered in street patrol or combat situations. Training scenarios teach students to ignore distractions. Other training methods to increase realism might include blindfolding or exercising trainees to near exhaustion before dealing with a simulated attack, as well as training outdoors on a variety of surfaces and restrictive situations.

    Training also covers situational awareness to develop an understanding of one's surroundings and potentially threatening circumstances before an attack occurs. It may also cover ways to deal with potentially violent situations, and physical and verbal methods to avoid violence whenever possible.

    in my personal opinion, Tae Kwon Doe is better for real life situations. My cousin takes classes for it and it has helped his family defend themselves more than i've seen before.

    I agree with Tae Kwon Do as well. Im a second degree black belt in it and it's really helped me a lot. Not consciously much but I have self defense instincts, I live in a rough area so i've had to fight a few times in the past couple of years and the techniques i've learned in Tae Kwon Do give me an enourmous edge against knuckleheads.

    In terms of CQC, I'd probably say the most dangerous is the US Army Combatives. Get in a chokehold or a joint lock and you're as good as dead on the battlefield.

    Not really sure about this one. I mean, probably one of the most deadly in the world is chinese wushu, but the most practical martial art that can produce the most sustained amount of damage would have to be Muay Thai; primarily because it relies on both solid locking holds as well as force striking.

    That's actually a good point. A lot of military combat techniques and abilities are based off that specific martial art. Do you have experience with i t? It might be a good insight for us to bounce our own ideas and thoughts off of ^_^

    well.. I was Marine Infantry, and I have had experience in Muay Thai, so I suppose the answer to your statement would be yes, some.
