CONTROL BEFORE CUSTODY Establishing control before initiating the handcuffing process is optimal for officer safety and effective suspect management. Even when a suspect appears compliant or is in a seemingly disadvantaged position, there remains a significant risk of sudden, unpredictable actions. A suspect will look for opportunity and vulnerability in order to potentially flee or launch an attack. Without first establishing proper control the officer is left vulnerable to these rapid changes

TEAM TACTIC OPTION When at cover and contact the prone cuffing position is preferred over kneeling. If kneeling is the only option based on situational circumstances, see our previous video on handcuffing while kneeling. Once the subject starts to resist, the officers attempt to go high/low but both are working a takedown. This is a common issue we see. The top officers is responsible for the takedown and the low officer is just an anchor. | Effective Fitness Combatives

WHY YOU SHOULD RETHINK THIS HANDCUFF REMOVAL TECHNIQUE In this video, we discuss a commonly taught method for removing handcuffs: having the suspect place one hand on their head after removing one cuff, then the officer steps to the side to remove the other. While the theory behind this tactic is that distance is your friend, in reality, this creates the perfect angle and distance for the suspect to deliver a strike. This method leaves you vulnerable. We recommend taking handcuffs off the same w

WHAT IS POST IMMEDIATE USE OF FORCE? Most defensive tactic curriculums center around how to defeat the resistance of a combative suspect and take them into custody. But what do you do when they are in handcuffs and still fighting or require medical attention? A department must have an SOP on what to do in these situations. This is why EFC has an entire module dedicated to what officers should do AFTER a use of force has occurred and the suspect is now in custody. Training for cops, by cops. | Ef

THIS ISN’T DEFENSIVE TACTICS. THIS IS EFFECTIVE FITNESS COMBATIVES. What most departments call “defensive tactics” is often limited, outdated, and disconnected from the realities officers face on the street. A few hours of handcuffing drills or controlled takedowns in a sterile training room won’t prepare you for the chaos of a non-compliant suspect, a weapon retention fight, or extracting a noncompliant suspect from a vehicle. EFC was created to close that gap. EFC isn’t just a course. It’s a c
