Hand-to-Hand Combat

Description
The U.S. Army designed Hand-to-Hand Combat (combatives) training to ensure every soldier is tough and adaptive to changing conditions, more confident in their abilities, and equipped with the tools necessary to dominate their environment. Since our original version of the app, the Army has redesigned their program to focus on a more mixed martial arts approach called the Modern Army Combatives Program (MACP). The older manual (Field Manual 21-150), which grew out of experiences in WWII, is still included, but the focus is on the new MACP program. MACP stands apart from the vast majority of martial arts training in that producing actual fighting ability is of primary concern. The mental and physical benefits of training gain their worth from their usefulness in producing more capable soldiers. It bridges the gap between physical training and tactics. The products of a good physical training plan, strength, endurance and flexibility are directed toward the improving the fighting ability. The three phases of basic fight strategy are: - Close the distance - Gain dominant position - Finish the fight To accomplish this MACP took the concept of positional dominance from Jiu-Jitsu, expanded it to the other ranges of combat and blended in techniques from wrestling, boxing, Muay Thai, judo to name just a few. In addition weapons fighting lessons were added from Kali, the western martial arts and the Army Rangers’ own experience from years in the infantry. Hand-to-Hand Combat also includes video clips to help reinforce the material and fitness calculators to help with your training. If you are interested in hand-to-hand combat and military training, this app is one you won’t want to miss.

User Reviews
Bought the app and was/am extremely disappointed. First it’s mostly just telling you about the training. But not much in useful training. Second the sound doesn’t work. 3rd there is no way to contact the developer to fix the issues. So until that’s fixed it gets a 1 star.
I was very disappointed with this app. I returned it
The amount of info this happen is crazy! It's up to date with pictures straight out of the FM. Has everything you need to teach, refresh on, or study. On top of that you can save stuff to your favorites and print out any sheet you need. For the price you can't get anything better
Great book. Puts everything in order.
Great app! Pretty accurate to Army/Navy training.
This is a very informative book not only on hang to hand but on other aspects of physical activities such basic metabolism the amount of blood in the body how many calories are burned in different activities gives the reader complete control of their physical capabilities and knowledge of their bodies.
I like how the new Basic Combatives Course Techniques are on video. Great reference. I got the manual, but the app comes in pretty handy as a quick reference guide.
Just get it you won't regret it!!!
One of the coolest apps I've seen!
Great app for learning military combat skills and technics!
