How to fight right: a practical guide

Do not think that this article is an attempt to call you to aggressive behavior or distrust of others. But each of us can find ourselves in a situation where the power of speech, conviction and reason will be meaningless against someone's fists and anger. Of course, normal people rarely like to fight, unless they earn it in sports competitions. But in the modern world, every man should be able to stand up for himself. But how? Correct fight - it's not as simple as it seems.

First of all, let's figure out when to use force. Situations in fact are different, and before you hit a person, you should be completely sure that you can not do without it. In which cases you can not doubt:
- if a person swings at you or your companions;
- if he pestered with threats and did not react to reasonable arguments;
- if he is trying to take away your property.

There are times when it is better to run away, rather than engage in a hand-to-hand conflict, especially if you do not know how to fight correctly. On the street there are always ways to retreat, and in the event that you are fast enough and you do not have satellites that can not run, it is better, of course, not to expose yourself to unnecessary risk and retire.

What if the fight is inevitable? The ability to rebuff in many respects depends on your psychological attitude. If you think at the time of the attack that now you are hurting another person, then you are focused on the wrong things. The impact will be soft, and you yourself will become a simple target for your abuser. Do not feel sorry for someone who has become an aggressor towards you: you are defending your life and personal independence. Justice is your blow, not pain.

Remember that a person is very dependent on circumstances, and he will learn to fight if this is required of him by the conditions. Even if you were all hurt at school, and there was liberation from physical education, it does not mean that you are not able to stand up for yourself, even if you do not know how. Correct fight - does not mean to have excellent physical training. There are several useful tips for street fighting:

- if possible, get rid of the clothes that bother you or in which you can get confused (including scarves and ties);
- keep calm and cool, look the enemy right in the eyes - there is a possibility that he will be frightened and retreat, or simply lose his former self-confidence;

- evaluate the situation, see if there is a stick or other object nearby, which can be resorted to in case of extreme need;

- Calculate the path to retreat, if you have several rivals.

Do not forget that it is very important to properly clench your fist: press four fingers to the palm of your hand and close the top with your thumb. Straighten your fist only directly on impact, otherwise quickly die out. Movements should be accurate, but not strained. Maximize your focus on the object of your aggression; To mark better in the most vulnerable places, such as groin, face, neck. If you fall, but the opponent continues to strike, close your head with your hands and try to stand up. The outcome of the fight depends largely on your self-confidence, so do not lose your self-control.

Now you know how to fight correctly. Let's hope that you will never have to apply this knowledge in practice. In any case, remember that there is nothing more valuable than human life.
