Why do the marines have to be stubborn and make mcmap just invite a krav maga instructor from Israel to train you guys how to fight, because I have taken mcmap and krav maga, krav maga is a 100x better, it prepares the mind, body, and teaches many different skills, that actually work
My Grandma could take down most of iraqi s in hand to hand. TRUTHFULLY.

So fuckn' useless
we're the same we always exercise
mcmap sucks, it's mostly endurance drills with mediocre techniques, i was in when they were just introducing mcmap before it became mandatory to get a tan belt and I remember thinking back then that it sucked. Years later I still think it sucks. It's better than nothing and I understand the reasoning for it, better to have Marines doing mcmap instead of just pt alone but let's face it this sucks monkey balls. Take criticism and adapt, don't just give blind allegiance to things just because the Corps adopted it.
I've used my MCMAP knowledge more out of the Marines then I ever did in. I worked in Jails and Prisons and personal security. But I also continued my training as anyone should do.
It seems to me more relies on counterstrikes and blocks rather than any real offensive moves
If you're in Toronto go to Mr. Fitness. They got some real ninjas there; I'm talking Bosnia war combat veterans, Kali folk, Ju Jitsu masters world class boxers the like. It's at the warehouse at Highway 27 and Albion and it's also a fitness gym.
Ask to speak with Jim if you're interested in combat training. I'm studying to be a military cook and actually graduated high school doing Co-Op at this place. It's pro legit. If you want to do combat training talk to Jim. (416)-749-4202
We've already been to the Philippines
What a joke! And just to let everyone know, I was a Marine with 2/5. When is the Marine Corps going to apply some real fighting techniques?
I agree completely. Spend eight years in the Corps with the MCMAP program, and I learned significantly more in roughly two years spent in Kali. It always amuses me how goddamn delusionally arrogant the MCMAP black belts are.
GO TO PHILIPPINES AND Learn some KALI
you guys believe it all don't you.
1.) "Afghani" is an offensive term when used to refer to the people of Afghanistan. Ask them and they'll tell you it's the name for their money, not their people.
2.) Not all of them are terrorists in disguise, dickwad. Many of them are good, trustworthy people.
3.) Please stop being such an asshole.
as for the norm mcma not effective no hip no focus stiff robottic movements over built marines using brute force that afghany is d o a why dont they just ask the israelis to teach the usmc krav ma ga mcma is a failure or just take the time to learn shoto kan or ju jitzu the are no short cuts lazy america mentality
You're right, a friend of mine just got back from basic training in the marines and I asked him about what kind of hand to hand they do and he confirmed what you say.
what a a bad posture and stance the most important…very bad osotogari…very bad applied judo, aikido, muay thai techniques…
first this proves the saying those who cant do teach honestly how can u train someone if ur techniques and posture are shit too
oorah
I wouldn't let those Afghanis behind me with a weapon or into the perimeter without frisking them. The marines are just showing the muzzies how they're going to die.
But then again all Infantry Marines are required a green-belt which I say seems an intermediate level.Hey can you explain to me what the battle for marjah was?
You guys ever train in silat techniques of any sort.
