An alpha male is someone who is a protector, male or female. Why has society made it wrong to be an alpha? Do you know how to protect yourself and your family if you get into a dangerous situation? On this episode, Krav Maga expert, Marcus Torgerson talks about the way modern day society has changed, the lack of real male role models in the world today and how to solve the problem.

I am trying to redefine what alpha means to me. It means I am going to protect my friends, my family and those that are not able to protect themselves by whatever legal means necessary. –Marcus Torgerson

Three Takeaways

  1. Alphas are construed as the bad guy in modern society and the media have made it frowned upon to be one in recent years.
  2. There will always be predators and predators will always sniff out the weakest link.
  3. Every person on the planet can do Krav Maga, whether you are able bodied or disabled.

We began this episode by discussing just what an alpha is and how it can be a man or a woman. We talked about how males have changed since World War 2 and how the media portray alpha males nowadays. Marcus went on to talk about his experiences in school yard fights and all the things he learnt from scrapping with other kids and how you never truly know the real you until you have been punched in the face. We finished off by talking about Krav Maga and the ways it can help you in a dangerous situation.

We also discussed;

  •      Confidence issues of modern men.
  •      The importance of strong male role models in societies.
  • How the internet has helped martial arts but also the problems it has raised.

Over the past 60 years, men have gone from being alpha heroes to sitting in their basement playing video games. Most people have lost that confidence now and are either too afraid or not even wired properly to offer help or to stand up to someone in pressure situations. You need to get out there and learn something that might save your life one day and build your confidence. Krav Maga is the perfect form of self defence. Anyone can do it, and it’s battle tested.
