Very often, conflicts on the street end in a fight, often with the use of edged weapons or improvised objects. It is not always possible to avoid a delicate situation, but it is quite possible to prevent the consequences in the form of injuries and injuries. To do this, you must learn to defend yourself on the street.
Physical training
Physical strength and speed of reaction are the main components of victory in a fight with street hooligans, even for those who do not know self-defense techniques and cannot defend themselves with the help of improvised means.
Everyone who often fights knows that the most formidable fighters are village guys and athletes. Villagers who do not poison their bodies with booze, as a rule, have good physical characteristics. In addition, in the village, fights are a normal phenomenon, and in many villages the sports section is the only entertainment for teenagers who are not addicted to alcohol. Therefore, village men are often experienced fighters with high psychological training, not surprised by the presence of weapons in the hands of the enemy.
Almost all sports develop excellent general physical fitness, therefore, even non-combat sportsmen in a fight are strong, enduring and coordinated. Volleyball players and swimmers, for example, can punch hard, and football players kick. Team sports are strong in group fights. Titled wrestlers and boxers have a good chance of emerging victorious against an armed opponent or a group of attackers. Dangerous opponents are also considered pitching, if you do not use various chemical additives.
Even a simple run can save you from many troubles, because the most likely aggressors - hooligans, bandits and drunkards - are unlikely to be able to catch up with a trained person even at short distances.
Martial arts
As the name implies, they are designed to make a warrior out of an ordinary person, able to stand up for himself, for his family and friends on the street. However, in the second half of the 20th century, many martial arts commercialized and turned into one of the varieties of health fitness.
Therefore, if the purpose of attending a martial arts school is to learn how to defend on the street, choose the right type for this correctly. Firstly, in training, instead of gymnastics, religion and philosophy, there should be serious physical preparation. Almost all types of combat systems do not work without it. Secondly, competitions and training matches must be in full contact. Those who are afraid of punches in the face will never win on the street.
Useful Tips
Don't look for trouble. Even if you really want to, think: are you ready to risk your health or life in a fight with a crowd of hooligans? It is not a fact that this will happen exactly today, but it is quite logical not to meddle where it can happen. Therefore, it is foolish to walk the dark streets of dysfunctional neighborhoods, sit in questionable bars and nightclubs. It's even more stupid to do it with your girlfriend.
Don't give in to provocations. Most conflicts start with this. Do not sort things out with the scumbags who offend you and inadequate personalities.
Do not panic. Even if the situation is nowhere worse, panic can ruin everything even more. Think about what the aggressors want from you, what they are willing to do and how dangerous they are. Think about what you can oppose them. In many cases, you can find a suitable item to use as a weapon. A stick, a stone, a bottle, a belt with a massive plaque, a stool, cutlery - all this can be turned into a formidable weapon. Sometimes the surprise factor helps - to strike first so that the enemy does not get up. An unexpected blow to the jaw or groin, stunning with a bottle of beer or a chair - all this can resolve the brewing conflict in your favor.
In a situation where you have to protect your girlfriend or wife, sister, son or daughter, you have to fight to the end, by any means and with the use of any weapon. At the same time, the girl must run and call for help with all her might. If she stays, she still won't help. And if he runs far and reaches the police, the idea of bringing the fight to the point of murder will seem unattractive to the attackers. Running away together will not work either - usually girls run slower than men, especially in heels.
Think only before and after a fight. During a fight, unnecessary thoughts are harmful and dangerous, it is better to trust your instincts, physical data and well-developed techniques. Any, even the most logical and correct reasoning greatly slows down the reaction, and this is a guaranteed loss.
