1 - The Wake-Up Call
Ever so frequently we all get a reality-check that this world can be troublesome. Not every time, not all the time, but ever so regularly, if you live like me - a little bit of violence touches your life. Something goes down in your neighborhood, or to a friend or relation. You thought about it and just sat down at your keyboard and want to see what sort of free resources the Chaotic Wonder of the Interweb has to offer on the theme. Time to master the art of self defense by burning up up the search engine.
You avoid the youtube videos of teenage street fights over nothing. You skip the UFC highlights and interviews. You skip all the fancy martial arts demos with fancy spin moves. You get to Krav Maga, presented as the best self defence anywhere. Crap. Even those guys have got hundreds of techniques listed, and online training that costs more than the Blu-Ray box set you were planning to buy this weekend.
The TV is on in the background, and the Simpson's theme song just started. What can you learn and still be in front of the Television in one minute? The two most vital physical skills you can know:
2 - The Crucial 2 Methods
The right cross punch - yes, punch - not open-handed strike or slap. The power punch that ends more boxing matches, MMA fights, and street fights than any other strategy. If you only have one technique to train, with the certainty you would be facing violence without a weapon, this is the one. Thrown low on the head at the jaw line.
Basic dynamic pummeling - clearing control of our wrists, arms, neck, and body and building control over an attacker's. The fighting skills technique book at Barnes & Noble for $24.95 will have hundreds of static strategy counters to regulate holds. Chuck them out the window, learn basic pummeling, and then the proper way to strike behind it. (Dirty boxing, like MMA)
Don't spend $24.95 on the book. Get the free things, and learn these 2 methods - the one's you will need if trouble comes drumming on the window.
