The Tucker Max Experiences Tucker Max

"What do you do when the most important people in your life don't see what you see or grow the way you are growing?"

That is one of the hardest questions I have faced in the past, and still face today. In this episode, I walk you through how I deal with this issue in my life.

In this episode, Tucker describes everything he's done to develop his self-defense system, including who he learns from, what skill he practices and how, and how to figure out your own self-defense system. 

In this episode, Tucker talks to Tim Larkin about what a self-defense mindset is, and how to cultivate one. 

Tim Larkin is the founder of Target Focus Training. For 20 years, he has been well known in the self defense and close-combat training world but "under-the-radar" to ordinary folks like you. Tim is the guy operations like the US Navy SEALs, Army Special Forces, and the US Border Patrol call in behind-the-scenes to teach them when it’s “kill-or-be-killed.”

During the last 20 years, he’s trained not only these elite military special forces and law enforcement units but corporate and civilian clientele in New York, Las Vegas, London, and other cities around the world using a combination of live training sessions and DVDs.

A sought-after public speaker, Larkin has spoken to CEOs, government officials, and business leaders in over 40 countries on how to use these same principles of surviving life-or-death violence in the less life-threatening environment of business.

Larkin is co-author of the best-selling book, How To Survive The Most Critical 5 Seconds Of Your Life, and the highly acclaimed online newsletter, Secrets For Staying Alive When Rules Don’t Apply.

Tucker sits down with Jeff Gonzales to discuss all things related to carrying a concealed handgun. Jeff, a former Navy Seal and long time firearms instructor, walks Tucker through everything he has to think about; which gun to use, what holster to use, what else to carry besides a gun, and much more. 

In the second installment of this two-part episode, Tucker continues the conversation with his primary self-defense guru, Clay Martin, who helps walk Tucker through the exact and actionable steps to take once you have committed to becoming serious at self-defense.

Clay Martin served in two branches of service, the USMC and the US Army. In the Corps, he was in the infantry, a Scout/ Sniper, and a Recon Marine. In the Army, Clay served as a Green Beret, with most of his career spent in 3rd Special Forces Group. He was an Operational Detachment Alpha (ODA) Communications SGT, Intelligence SGT, and ended his career as an SFAUC instructor.

He has served as a CQB Instructor, Sniper Instructor, and Master Breacher. His professional education includes LRSLC, Pathfinder, HALO, SERE, Urban Sniper, SOTIC, SFAURTEC, and a Doctorate in Counter Terrorism from the University of Baghdad. His clients in the past have included Special Forces (foreign and domestic), USMC Force Recon, SWAT teams, and High Net Worth individuals.
