Has anyone invested in Matt Furey's Combat Conditioning stuff ?. If so I wanted your thoughts and feedback on his techniques, Cheers
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Combat Conditioning: Functional Exercises for Fitness and Combat Sports
- Thread starter englishcrap
- Start date
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Hi English,
I've got it and do the royal court, but I'm convinced Hindu pushups have contributed, not help a mild rotor cuff problem.
I also know a few people who won't do the neck bridge because they had problems.
Also he's not exactly the pinnical of abdominal midsections is he?
I prefer the Ultimate Warrior Guide, that's well cool, have you got that?

Hey Alpine,
I heard so many different view points on the Hindu Squats. My instructor was also convinced that they are the best and simplest form of exercises to build endurance in the lower body.
I think everyone has somthing negative to say about everything but yeah I agree with you.
Thomas Kurz wrote a brief article on Hindu Squats but I feel Matt Furys stuff might be better as it goes into depth on the subject.
I am planning to invest in Matt's Combat Conditioning videos next month. I just wanted to justify that it is money worth spending.
No havent got the Ultimate Warrior Guide
Did u get my emails ?.
Cheers..

Hi err,
I don't think I've had one I haven't replied to.
I'd check out bear share (one word) first Matt's stuff was on there last time I looked, you really need broadband though if you download the vids.
Hindu squats are ok. I think the trick is build up slowly. I do about 50 in one go which is nothing, but I'm doing other stuff as well and deadlifting.
Had a go with a kettlebell yesterday, they are fun, but bloody knackering.
Check mail then.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

He may have been good in his day, but he's out of combat condition, no two ways about it. He's a fat bastard.
Having said that, some of the best brains of the Bodybuilding world were never body builders- Arthur Jones being a good example. So I don't feel it devalues the quality of the teachings.
