In this episode, we catch up with Razor Rob McCullough and Nathan Broadmax to discuss the Razor Striking System (RSS), a self-defense system rooted in Muay Thai. We discuss the development of the RSS curriculum, its goals, and the importance of creating a supportive environment for students. RSS aims to make striking accessible to a wider audience.
In this conversation, Rob and Nate delve into their experiences in martial arts, discussing the differences between self-defense training and combat sports, the evolution of training, and the importance of building a community through martial arts.
We explore the business side of martial arts and envision the future of structured training programs for beginners and experienced practitioners. The discussion highlights the significance of self-defense, the growth of jiu-jitsu, and the potential for martial arts to be both a hobby and a viable business.
In this conversation, Rob and Nate discuss various personal and professional projects, including a science fiction novel, a growing YouTube channel for jiu jitsu, and the development of a martial arts program.
