Hand-to-hand combat using the Kadochnikov bugry system. Kadochnikov system: what it is, fighting style and equipment, differences from other combat disciplines

In this series of articles we will introduce you to a unique methodological approach, thanks to which you can quickly and easily master the basic motor skills that are the foundation of the Kadochnikov System. Even if you don’t have an instructor or the opportunity to attend seminars and trainings, you will learn how you can start learning correctly on your own, at home.

  • Part 2.
  • [Coming soon] Part 3. How to Properly Dose the Load When Self-paced learning Kadochnikov system

Everything ingenious is simple, but not primitive - said Einstein. It was on this thin border between simplicity and genius that unique system hand-to-hand combat and effective self-defense, which has no analogues in the world and is accessible to people of any age.

Because to master it you not needed neither sports training nor specialized knowledge. Quite the contrary. Once you start getting acquainted with the System, you yourself will want to learn more about the capabilities of your body and psyche.

Having quickly received what they came for - self-confidence and effective self-defense skills - many people continue to study the Kadochnikov System for self-development in order to better understand themselves and their purpose in the world.

Schematically, three levels of practice can be distinguished in teaching the System.

The first level is combat skills.

The main task at this level is to teach your body to move in an optimal mode and free your muscles from fear and tension. That is why training begins with working on fear with the help of special exercises, which have the full range of necessary effects on the body and psyche: this is a special massage, and the skill of muscle relaxation, and the ability to get around corners and obstacles.

The main task at this level is to teach your body to move in an optimal mode and free your muscles from fear and tension.

Performing these simple exercises will allow you to activate the muscle memory mechanism.

After your body stopped accumulating fear and tension in the muscles, you can learn to control it as a single coherent mechanism. After all, energy goes where your attention is directed. A prepared body is able to perform delicate work controlled by the brain. You will no longer need the rough and sharp mechanical movements that your body performed like a robot.

Instead, you will learn to move smoothly, with your whole body, consistently distributing efforts. In this mode you can work as much time as necessary, and at the same time you will not get tired. You won't even break a sweat.

Is it hard to believe? Yes, that sounds fantastic. But only at first glance. Because there is a scientific explanation for this.

The point is that fatigue begins to accumulate in the cerebral cortex. And only after that the muscles begin to get tired. That is why when the brain is not ready for a situation, does not know how to solve a problem, a person begins to fuss and very quickly loses energy.

The same thing happens when a person relies on his physical abilities, learned techniques and patterns of behavior. The body takes all the energy, leaving the brain without the necessary nutrition to assess the situation and make the necessary decisions in accordance with the situation.

A sharp surge in physical energy is followed by a decline, and the person becomes defenseless. At this moment, neither trained muscles nor the baggage of hundreds of memorized techniques will help him.

The behavior model in which a person relies on his physical capabilities is shown in the figure (red). It is characterized by the maximum manifestation of physical strength, in which there is no energy left either to maintain the volume of attention to assess the situation, or the ability to manage the situation and make the necessary adjustments to control one’s body and the opponent(s). And, of course, it is limited in time.

Human physical capabilities not limitless. Alexey Alekseevich Kadochnikov compares this model of behavior to driving a car that is rushing along the highway at breakneck speed.

On high speed it is almost impossible to fit into a turn. Nevertheless, 99% of all existing systems are to a greater or lesser extent based on precisely this model of behavior. Despite the fact that modern scientific research proven: for effective control situation, a person should not spend more than 20-25% on physical effort.

What is this connected with? First of all, with the amount of energy that the brain needs for active activity. The fact is that the brain is the most energy-consuming organ in our body. Even when our body is in a calm, relaxed state, the brain consumes 20% of energy, and the same internal organs for example, twice as much.

Scientists have proven that to operate effectively in a dangerous situation, we must see and evaluate the environment around us in a range of at least 270 degrees, as well as use other analyzers (hearing, smell, touch). All this requires energy.

By teaching our body to spend no more than 25% of its energy on proper motor activity, we leave the necessary amount of energy so that our brain can correctly assess the situation, identify the problem and set a task to solve it, taking into account various options(depending on the time, effort and means we have at our disposal) at the moment). Only in this mode can we work effectively in potentially stressful situation without giving in to fear or panic and solve problems of any complexity.

Level two – combat kinematics

At this level of practice, we help the body free itself from stiffness and muscle tension during various movements, learn to work in contact with the enemy and at the same time not strain either physically or mentally. Correctly choose contact zones and influence the enemy not by force, but by controlling his movements. We master protection against any enemy attacks by using not only linear, but also angular speed.

This allows us break down any impact into its components and always be faster than the enemy. We learn to create moments of vulnerability for the enemy after each of his actions.

At this level of practice, you aim to use no more than 25% of your strength, can see and assess your surroundings, and work effectively for as long as necessary. In this state, you take blows softly, because you use not only the linear speed of movement, but also the angular speed, so you always gain in time.

The softness, smoothness and seemingly harmless nature of your movements to an outside observer deceptive. Spiral movements performed by rotating your hands around their own axis create new trajectories that the inexperienced eye cannot even see. Although this is described by the elementary formula for circumference. As shown in the picture.

At this level of practice, it is absolutely obvious to you that angular velocity always above linear. Lung rotational movement with the hand or forearm, performed in a split second, changes the direction of movement of any blow, making it safe for you and forcing the enemy to become vulnerable at that moment.

This allows you apply force at the right place and time, moment, impulse to neutralize any opponent(s).

After all, any physical body has a number of parameters: mass, length, width, center of gravity, geometric shape, physical state. In dynamics (motion), a body acquires such parameters as vector (direction of movement), speed, acceleration, momentum.

When one body interacts with another, a contact zone is formed, which is measured by the contact area. The smaller the area of ​​the contact zone, the stronger the deformation of the object will be when exposed to this zone (all other things being equal).

When one body acts on another, fulcrum points and centers of mass rotation are formed. To reduce the directional impact, a force decomposition point is created. To increase the directional impact, a fulcrum is created and a lever or moment of force is used.

Used in strikes pulse(the principle of supersonic speed), which allows you to achieve a devastating effect with minimal expenditure of energy.

The main task of the first two levels of practice is to improve the quality of your body’s movements in different situations, including extreme ones. It is easier to understand if we draw an analogy of our body with some mechanism.

Any working mechanism is kinetic-kinematic system, which is characterized by two parameters - kinetics and kinematics.

Kinetics is the source of force (kinetic energy). For a car or airplane, this is the engine. For humans, these are muscles. Each muscle fiber- This is a mini-motor.

Kinematics is the transfer of force from a source through the elements of a given mechanism in order to convert it into useful action. The more efficient the kinematic transmission, the less force needs to be applied to ensure the same mechanical result.

Bone, articular and fascial structures - provide kinematic connections and convert muscle work into supporting and motor functions. The more efficient the kinematic connections, the less work the muscles need to do. It is the kinematic characteristics that determine how effectively our musculoskeletal system works as a musculoskeletal system.

Thus, the first two levels of practice allow us to do work by improving kinematic characteristics our body, and not the energetically expensive use of our muscles, the capabilities of which are very limited.

The third level is combat fencing.

At this level of practice, we transfer all acquired skills to work with edged weapons and improvised means. Special preparatory exercises will help us eliminate psychological blocks when working with edged weapons and avoid mistakes that 99% of students make. And finally, we combine all the acquired knowledge into combat algorithms for effective self-defense in any conditions and situations.

Training at all three levels of the Kadochnikov System is discussed in detail in one of the most effective video trainings for home training

Reading articles about ancient world and about the conditions of increased danger in which the first people lived, you involuntarily draw an analogy with what we have now.

Unfortunately, we cannot boast of a safe existence. IN modern world There are much more threats to human life than in that distant Stone Age.

The narrow dark streets of a modern city, like wild jungle, become a place potential danger and threats. In connection with this state of affairs, a person thinks that it would be nice to be able to defend himself and turns to hand-to-hand combat professionals with a request to teach him self-defense techniques.

What kind of system is this

Russian or Soviet hand-to-hand combat is otherwise called the Kadochnikov system. These are unique martial arts that combine the struggle of two rivals and the psychology of survival in the current difficult and, at times, even extreme situation.

It is worth noting that the founder of this system was V.A. Spiridonov, and Kadochnikov systematized the accumulated knowledge on self-defense and made very important additions.

The goal of the system is to create a fighter who is ready for any situation and is able to find a way out, no matter how difficult the conditions are. The basis of the system is ordinary physics and mathematics, knowledge of which will lead to a quick victory and a significant advantage over the enemy.

Peculiarities

Kadochnikov's self-defense system is not just hand-to-hand combat, it is a body of knowledge that allows a person to survive in extreme conditions. This fighting technique not only makes a person an excellent fighter, but also develops psychological
balance, a person looks at life differently, accepts right decisions, knows how to analyze situations.

A person begins to see his superiority over others, but he will never allow himself to talk about it openly. According to Kadochnikov, a fighter is restrained and reasonable, cunning and dexterous. He is able to control his opponent.

It becomes possible to achieve such an understanding of life and attitude towards oneself thanks to Kadochnikov’s special training scheme in self-defense, which is absent in other martial arts:

  1. Kadochnikov’s self-defense allows you not to waste energy, but to save it in every movement. But the system is built in such a way that the correct use of the enemy’s strength to achieve one’s goals allows a person to win.
  2. The lessons are not monotonous and there is no need to memorize certain techniques. Everything works according to the principle: “Repeat the blow, but in a different key.”
  3. The absence of a competitive spirit is also important, since this type of fighting cannot be called a sport, it is rather a school of life.

Main goal


The system is simple, natural and reliable. It is based on natural movements and is accessible to everyone, regardless of physical fitness. Kadochnikov's self-defense combines many different techniques and fighting techniques.

The main idea is to take control of the situation, control the enemy and use his power against him.

Kadochnikov’s self-defense – comparatively new look martial art, which contains the wisdom of our ancestors and, at the same time, adaptation and the latest scientific developments.

Of course, the system will continue to develop and become even more advanced. Naturally, the development of domestic hand-to-hand combat requires the support of not only interested citizens and masters of this art, but also the state and law enforcement agencies.

If you have decided to learn self-defense techniques, if you want to learn self-control and improve, then we advise you to turn to the self-defense system created by Kadochnikov.

I found myself in a dark forest,
Having lost the right path in the darkness of the valley

Again, a rather interesting mention about practicing the “pendulum” at the Krasnodar Kadochnikov school is in the article

According to the method of the Krasnodar school of Kadochnikov, in order to prepare the body for its mastery, one must repeat a certain exercise 150 thousand times. And if you interrupt for even a day, you will have to start all over again - “the speedometer is reset to zero.” The automatic use of the “pendulum” begins only after completing 300 thousand exercises!

As far as I remember in the “Kadochnikov System” - “the pendulum was not considered at all. (Perhaps if Alexey Alekseevich Kadochnikov was familiar with such an exercise, especially one that needs to be performed 150 - 300 thousand times, and at the slightest mistake “the speedometers would be reset to zero “We would, as they say, have known about it a long time ago.) And as expected, the “Kadochnikov pendulum” could not be found on the Internet, there are no mentions at all, much less a video, which is actually not surprising, of this type “ pendulum" apparently does not exist in nature - it’s just that the article probably contained such bravado: “Of course we know about the pendulum - and we do it, and everything turns out like Tamantsev, only it’s very secret and you need to train a lot - it’s not for everyone, and in general not everyone will succeed.

The only thing I could find was this video about the “Lavrov pendulum” - which I discussed in detail in a previous article called

Just in time, Alexander Lavrov talks in great detail about his “pendulum” and shows how to perform it. Moreover, we must pay tribute without hiding anything at all and showing several times various nuances and methods of practical application.

And in fact, this is the very “pendulum” of Tamantsev from Vladimir Bogomolov’s book “The Moment of Truth” - which was mentioned in the article

But I don’t know, I was interested in the “pendulum” only insofar as, especially since I had figured out what it was, even when performed by such an authoritative specialist in martial arts as Alexander Lavrov, I would never have taken such a technique any seriously. And even more so, I wouldn’t practice it 150,000 times - what’s so surprising that can come out of it, from repeating 150 thousand times stepping aside, obviously nothing. (And in fact, all of these only prove that in martial arts there are miracles It doesn’t happen. And it’s much more rational to choose the best thing to study, or the benefits for learning martial arts will be many times greater. And the “pendulum” technique, in the form in which Alexander Lavrov presents it, is an order of magnitude greater in boxing. more developed.)

And such techniques, of course, but only with children under 10, maximum up to 14 years old - and they can be practiced, but of course very carefully - in a playful way, to develop the child’s sense of distance, “game fighting” skills, body awareness and the like .

P.S. (from 01/01/2018) And in the end I came across a “very rare video” according to what I understand as “Kadochnikov’s pendulum” - shooting and hand-to-hand combat. It is clear that shooting should be based on this very “pendulum movement”, which should be practiced these same “hundreds and hundreds of thousands of times.” And it seems that one of the best students of Alexei Kadochnikov, the legendary Sergei Vinogradov, is showing - but also absolutely no mention of the “Kadochnikov pendulum”; nothing could be found. He showed how to shoot a pistol - from a standstill, in motion and with such peculiar rolls. (I’m not keen on shooting, but it’s obviously too risky for me to use such things - they’ll shoot you. Probably suitable for films - but in reality I wouldn’t risk such experiments.)

Vinogradov S.S. — Kadochnikov system — very rare video — Shooting + melee

If you want With complete zero quickly master the combat algorithms of effective self-defense, then the Kadochnikov System - best choice for you. However, before you begin to master the combat skills of effective self-defense in practice, which is based on methods of “smart and cunning” influence on the enemy, and not brute physical strength, you need to understand some things well. First of all, understand that real effective self-defense is fundamentally different from combat sports and martial arts.

You know that the Kadochnikov System is fundamentally different from all existing martial arts and martial arts, it is simple and easy to learn. In this article we will show you seven basic fundamental differences Kadochnikov systems for all types of combat sports.

Knowing these seven main differences, you can easily determine which training program is right for you and you will know what result you will get after training.

FIRST and a very important difference concerns mental preparation. Kadochnikov's system prepares your psyche for efficient work V extreme situations when life and health are in danger.

Any combat sport prepares a person to participate in competitions where life and health are not in danger. Judges, doctors, the athlete’s coach are responsible for this; spectators and fans are present in the hall where the competition is held.

Naturally, the level of neuropsychic stress in such conditions is not at all the same when, for example, you need to fight for your life and health on a poorly lit deserted street, and even against several, not just one, attackers, each of whom may be armed with a stick, knife or brass knuckles.

The most obvious indicator of these differences is the pulse. In a trained athlete, under competition conditions, the pulse rarely goes beyond 140-145 beats per minute.

In an extreme situation, any person who has not undergone special training, the pulse instantly jumps to 180, or even 200 beats per minute. And an athlete who acts confidently in a competitive environment is also helpless and subject to fear in conditions where life and health are in real danger.

When there are no judges or a coach nearby and he needs to fight not for victory with an opponent of approximately the same weight and level of training, but for his life or health with those who will most likely surpass him in weight and number, not according to the rules that he knows well, and according to the law of the jungle, where the best techniques are considered the most insidious and cruel.

How does our brain and body react when a person finds himself face to face with real danger?

Our brain, faced with a threat to life, sharply reduces the scale and volume of information that we need to process. This is why most of us get overly excited when we find ourselves in a stressful situation.

Having crossed a certain line, our body blocks too many channels of information, and we become helpless. When the pulse crosses the border of 145 beats per minute, the real problems of controlling your body begin.

Complex motor abilities are impaired. It must be said that the range in which we can work effectively ranges from 115-145 beats per minute. Moreover, its upper limit is 140-145 beats per minute, which is optimal for very trained people. For ordinary people the optimal operating range is 120-130 beats per minute.

But we remember that in a stressful extreme situation our heart rate instantly jumps to 180 beats per minute and even higher. What happens to our body at these rates?

At 175 beats per minute, information processing stops completely... The front part of the brain is blocked, and the midbrain - that part of it that is identical to the animal brain (and all mammals have it) - is activated and takes over the functions of the forebrain. Visual perception is reduced to a minimum. In this condition, people have frequent bowel movements because, at such an extreme level of danger, our body considers this kind of physiological control not essential for survival purposes.

In this state, he is focused on something else: blood flows from the external muscles and flows to the internal ones. Our body is evolutionarily predisposed to this at the genetic level, in order to turn muscles into a kind of armor and reduce bleeding in case of injury. But this makes us practically motionless and helpless.

In the USA, for example, people are advised to practice dialing 911, because there are many cases where people in extreme situations grabbed the phone, but could not perform this simplest action - dial 3 digits.

I believe you already understand what situations you need to prepare yourself for. Thinking that the skills acquired in sports club can easily be transferred to a real extreme situation, at the very least stupid, and by and large criminal, and first of all in relation to oneself.

The scope of this article does not include a description of real life stories, in which people, even with phenomenal athletic training, found themselves absolutely helpless in a real situation when their life or health was in danger.

There are hundreds of such stories, and if you want, you can find them yourself. This is the story of the famous wrestler Ivan Poddubny, who became a victim of a street robbery, and the story of one of the founders of modern karate, Masutatsu Oyama, who was beaten by black bandits in the USA (he himself described it in his autobiography) and a lot of other similar cases. Perhaps you or someone you know even has their own story on this topic.

SECOND The important difference is the rules.

No matter how strict the rules of the competition may be, they exist even in such types of sports as are called “fights without rules.” Even there you cannot gouge out eyes, break joints or hit in the groin. But these are the actions that every person tries to carry out first when he finds himself in a real hand-to-hand fight.

In sports you need entertainment and showmanship, in real combat you need efficiency. This means the goals are different. And since the goals are different, the training is completely different. After all, on the street or the battlefield, the outcome of the fight will not be determined by a judge in a smart bow tie and white shirt, but life itself will judge who is better prepared and trained.

And here we are faced with THIRD An important difference is the content and teaching methods.

We remember that in ANY combat sport there are rules. Consequently, it is these rules that determine what and how an athlete should be taught. In boxing - strikes, defenses against strikes, maneuvers, battle tactics. In wrestling - throws and falls while standing, wrestling on the ground, tactics, etc.

Plus, you need a good level of functional and special physical training, without which it is impossible to perform many complex coordination actions or survive five rounds in the ring, for example.

Therefore, every sport MUST have a multi-year training program, in which all training and TRAINING are divided into main stages. Start training with a group initial training, then those who cope are transferred to educational and training groups; then the most capable are transferred to groups for sports improvement, and only after that the most gifted move to groups of higher sports excellence.

It is impossible to master the technique and tactics of any combat sport in three or even six months. You need to count on years of study. Moreover, training is built on the principle of a pyramid. At the base - maximum quantity techniques and their combinations that an athlete must learn. Above - optimal set technical and tactical combinations suitable for each specific athlete. That is, we learn as much as possible initial stages, but we only use 20% of this at the stage of highest sportsmanship.

In the Kadochnikov System, even if we wanted to go this way, we still would not be able to do it. In sports, thanks to restrictions in the form of rules, we can create a model of all possible technical actions and, based on this model, train an athlete.

IN real life this is impossible, since there may be one enemy, there may be several of them, they may be armed, etc. - this is why we cannot allow ourselves to form stereotypes in the form of techniques and their combinations. We have only one way out - to teach our body to move in such a way as to instantly react and work in any situation with one or more opponents, against any type of bladed weapon. And to do this not over years of study and training, but in the shortest possible time.

FOURTH The difference is the volume and intensity of physical activity.

In sports, the task is to bring the athlete to peak physical shape for the main competition of the year. Therefore, the entire training cycle throughout the year is divided into certain stages- macro- and microcycles combining periods heavy loads, recovery after them and following periods loads

To achieve this goal, both pedagogical and pharmacological agents and methods. All this is done to achieve main goal- victories at the main tournament of the year. But you must always be prepared for an extreme situation, at any time of the day or night.

Such emergency situations cannot be written down in the competition calendar or asked to the gopnik: “Wait 5-7 minutes, I need to warm up my muscles and do a warm-up.” Therefore, training in the Kadochnikov System is organized so that any person: man or woman, weak or sick, is in excellent physical fitness or with shortness of breath after climbing to the fifth floor, he could work in an extreme situation if he had to fight for the life and health of himself or his family and friends. And this is achieved by the fact that we use only 25% of our strength in our work. Here we come to FIFTH the difference between the Kadochnikov System and combat sports.

Use not 100%, but 25% of your strength to work effectively in any condition for as long as necessary. How this difference works is very clearly shown in the diagram below:

SIXTH the difference is more related to thinking processes than to motor activity.

Despite the fact that in combat sports tactics are very important, and its application is even broader than just the tactics of a sports match (they also consider the tactics of competitive training in general), and in fencing, for example, there is even such a thing as the strategic doctrine of a fencer - it is limited.

You probably already guessed what it is limited to? Right. It is limited by the competition rules. In our System we cannot afford even the slightest restrictions in either tactics or strategy. Because all preparation is subordinated to one goal - to survive and complete the task. For you, for example, the task may be to repel a bully, while minimizing the injury factor as much as possible, avoiding injury and damage.

To do this, we use all the resources at our disposal at the moment, the principle of the trinity of forces (physical, spiritual, intellectual), and interdisciplinary communication. We do not have stereotypes (any restrictions) and should not have them.

And finally, one cannot help but say about SEVENTH An important difference is working in different environments.

Preparing a person to work in the same environment, under the same conditions, will not allow him to work in a situation where the conditions will be less comfortable. A body falling on a soft carpet is not at all the same as falling on asphalt or on a staircase in an ordinary entrance. If you know how to work with stairs, having prepared your body to smooth out its hard edges, you will somehow be able to cope with a soft floor, but the opposite is unlikely.

We examined seven main differences between the Kadochnikov System and combat sports within the framework of this article. Of course there are more differences.
