Aiming for the right Targets in a Reducing Situation!


When discussing self-defense primer and those new because realm of self-protection, We're often asked...

"If I just want to get out of there and need to shut this guy down short, what are the best facets of his body to to strike? "

I love questions by using this method, because it tells me when a person asking it is thinking "strategically" and not simply mechanically. If you ask questions, not related as much to "what" it is that you can do but, "how, the reason is "where, " "when, " as well as "why"...

... it tells me that you're thinking about results, effectiveness, and amount...

... all signs around a true martial arts wizard or self-defense expert.

As I realize it, there are seven body targets that are ideal for the beginnner to increased exposure of if they're looking to write drop an assailant effectively. As a quick side-bar, let me also say that there's many ways of getting to each target and choosing the right one in an bash situation will take not knowing it's there.

That explained, here are the 'Dirty 7':





  • 1. Nose - Nothing stops an attacker, or anyone else the truth is, like a quick shot to a possible nose - in SUCH A LOT OF direction! Even a light reputation instantly brings tears to a possible eyes and disorientation. As well as... NO! It's not constantly considered a killing reputation by 'real' experts!









  • 2. Eyes - Human beings are very sight-oriented creatures. And, our bodies are hard-wired to protect our eyes from even the slightest danger. Even the mere threat of attacking your opponent's eyes will have him changing his tactics at the least, and running for the hills consequently best-case scenario!









  • 3. Jaw/Tip of Chin ; A well-placed palm-strike to people tip of the chin, or even a thumb-tip driven up around the jaw-line will send an attacker realing in pain rrn addition to knock him out snowy!









  • 4. Throat - Just as with the eyes, our our bodies are wired to protect one of the better vulnerable areas. The airway, arteries, and veins that pack neck of the guitar area are all life-sustaining body's. And... they are exposed anywhere int he planet and without their rush defenses! A firm grab or perhaps sharp blow to these kinds of systems can shut an attacker down - permanently!









  • 5. Sternum/Solar Plexus - The cheapest tip of the breast bone, or breat bone, is referred to as the xyphoid process (pronounced "zie-foid"). It is a small, triangular shaped, boney protrusion that actually work has some flex to that. It points at top of the the abdominal cavity aware that, itself, is sensitive. These defensive "alarm" triggers were there to warn the body of attacks to a possible heart, lungs, and other organs WON'T protected by the ribs in this region. Even a light punch or kick to this area can leave high quality assailant breathless - or to worse.









  • 6. Groin - Do I really want to describe the effects via grab, punch, or give up here? Didn't think so they. However, it would be must get the notion which is only effective into men, right out of your head!





    And lastly...









  • 7. Knees - Sure... the knees. Everyone seems to think the knees are normally found weapons and yet, size-for-size, they're one of the weakest joints within your body. In fact, it takes about 65 lbs of pressure to pop an adult knee joint. And I can't care if we're speaking about mine, or Arnold Shwartzenagger's!





    Appreciated, there you have against each other. A quick list of the best targets for quickly conclusion a self-defense attack. This time around... all you have to regulate is learn "how, the reason is "when, " "where, " to attack.
