Today we executed Full Mission Profile (FMP) Close Quarters Combat (CQC).

FMP from Coach Ord's website - www.brassringfitness.com.

Close Quarters Battle (CQB) or close quarters combat (CQC) is a type of fighting in which small units engage the enemy with personal weapons at very short range, potentially to the point of hand-to-hand combat or fighting with hand weapons such as swords or knives. In the typical CQB scenario, the attackers try a very fast, violent takeover of a vehicle or structure controlled by the defenders, who usually have no easy way to withdraw. Because enemies, hostages/civilians, and fellow operators can be closely intermingled, CQB demands a rapid assault and a precise application of lethal force. The operators need great proficiency with their weapons, but also the ability to make split-second decisions in order to avoid or limit friendly casualties. CQB is defined as a short-duration, high-intensity conflict, characterized by sudden violence at close range.

The following training method grafts some concepts of CQC with Physical Training to create high intensity training that pushes the body and the mind while teaching individuals to work together in an extreme environment.

CQC Room 2
  1. Team enters the room as practiced, executes movements, and calls out “CLEAR!”.  When all members are clear #4 calls out “ALL CLEAR – MOVE”.
  2. All members move clockwise around room until each person has executed all positions.
  3. Final “ALL CLEAR!” clears the room and stops time.
