How Do You Spend Your Training Dollars?

Look, assess, react. Muscle memory helps the react to happen as an automated movement but in no way replaces look and assess. Muscle memory is what makes the difference between winning and losing in the "fight". Anyone who has been in a real situation that their training got them through can attest to that.

People that react without these initial phases and are hurting friends should reflect if they really thought they were in danger, were wired a tad too tight or simply would like to put on the show of the wired tight, always ready security guy. Not a poke at anyone friends, I've been wired way to tight too and can relate, but in retrospect can also see just how tight i was wired and how totally useless it was/is.

It is normal to be wired tight for some time, but one must know how to move past that and this should come with maturity in the field (again, not to be understood as a poke). Keep in mind if you're wired this tight in a friendly env/sit, what wil it be like when the real crisis happens?

Stay safe all
