0300 – Safety as a Concept In Training and in Life

May 23, 2012 by PaulCarlson Leave a Comment

Sometimes it seems like we live in a world of rules. Often times these rules are in lists that are so long and complicated that they are impossible to “know” and even more difficult to follow and enforce. The barrage of rules can be so overwhelming that at times, by some, the rules are simply ignored. This obviously leads to the exact opposite effect that the rules themselves were intended to cause. Today we are going to take a look at safety in training and how we can apply those principles to life.

0299 – Getting Children Into Car Seats Safely

May 9, 2012 by PaulCarlson 1 Comment

Those of you out there that have children will understand what I mean when I say that my whole outlook on life changed when my kids entered my life. All of a sudden, it wasn’t just about me any more. A little person was dependent on my judgement and actions for survival. It was a big responsibility that resulted in a big shift. I recently got an email from Michelle that illustrates this point exactly. Today we are going to take some time to look at how we can keep our children and ourselves safe while we are focused on an important task, putting our kids in their car seats.

May 8, 2012 by PaulCarlson Leave a Comment

It seems like it has been months since I fought my way through the Extreme Close Quarters Tactics Course as this is the busiest time of the year in the industry and I have been hopping which of course is great news. I wanted to get this podcast out ASAP so that I am able to give a good picture of what the course was like, and how you might be able to benefit from The ECQT Course oferend by ICE Training. So take a listen to some background, how day 2 looked, some information about the Skill Development Cycle and who should think about taking the ECQT Course

0297 – AAR on ICE Training Extreme Close Quarters Tactics Course

April 26, 2012 by PaulCarlson Leave a Comment

Right now I am hanging out in the lobby of my hotel working on processing and recovering from day 1 of the ICE Training Extreme Close Quarters Tactics Course. Today was a good day. I made it through without major issues although a solid inventory of the day and my skill level leaves me wishing for another month to prepare and another crack at the course. At the same time, I know that my skill level has increased substantially in the past 24 hours. Baby steps…

0296 – Why I am investing in learning techniques for fighting in the Extreme Close Quarters Tactics Course

April 25, 2012 by PaulCarlson Leave a Comment

I feel that when we think about crime and violence in particular we tend to over complicate the acts themselves quite possibly due to our distaste for those acts. We have a tendency to try and distance ourselves from violence to make ourselves feel better. It is as if the less we understand violence the less likely we are to have it be part of our life. If only it were that easy. Violence and crime can effect everyone and as opposed to being complex, violence is often very simple. Today we are going to take a look at training for simple violence and the complexities involved in close quarters fighting.
