Regardless of whether you want to fight in MMA, work as a cop, or just be effective in self defense you have to know how to function in a stressful environment. Today with Jeff Quail MSc we dive into the physiology of the fight or flight reflex, stress exposure training, the balance between training safety and realism, the carryover between combative sports and policing and much more.
Jeff Quail served as a Winnipeg police officer for 25 years, has a Master’s degree in Applied Psychology from the University of Liverpool and is currently heavily involved in training police officers how to be more effective in stressful scenarios. And, of course, he trains jiu-jitsu.
His book, 'A Scientific Approach to Reality Based Training', is available on Amazon in both paperback and kindle formats https://www.amazon.com/Scientific-Approach-Reality-Based-Training/dp/177529840X/
