Today girls sometimes have to learn to fight. To get rid of too intrusive and even boorish fans. To fight back street hooligans or rapists. And just to feel more confident in an emergency.
It so happened that nature has created women completely unadapted to successfully confront in a fight with men. But this does not mean at all that a girl cannot oppose anything to a bully or a rapist. A good level of physical and psychological fitness, knowledge of some techniques can help a girl in a fight even more than a man.
Physical training
Physical fitness is the foundation of all true martial arts. It is impossible to get good combat training without physical training. Also, keep in mind that the average bully is more busy drinking and partying than exercising. So it's not hard to get an advantage over him.
At home, you can perform complexes of strength exercises - push-ups, squats, abdominal exercises, and others. It is useful to run in the morning, but not jogging, but with the aim of developing sprint qualities. This will allow you to escape in cases where there is no chance (several people attack, they are armed, etc.). Being in good physical shape will improve your reaction and speed, improve your shape and health.
Combat training
Combat training is the development of specific techniques, strikes, blocks, escapes, captures. You can learn them from some self-defense manual or video course. And for practical training, it is better to invite a friend, boyfriend or girlfriend. If this is not possible, practice techniques in front of a mirror or with an imaginary opponent.. Still, it's better than nothing. If there are soft toys in the house, you can practice blows on them, and with large toys - some throws, grabs. Learn to hit your opponent on pain points: in the groin, lower leg, Adam's apple, eyes.
Practice techniques until they are completely automatic. Remember: it is better to ideally work out 2-3 receptions than superficially 10-20. Remember that the fight does not always take place in "ideal" conditions. Learn to defend yourself in an elevator, on stairs, on slippery surfaces, in heels and in tight clothing, while sitting and lying down.
Weapon
Think about the weapon and how you can use it. For a girl, this will be a good advantage in a fight with a superior opponent. In some cases, even a demonstration of a shocker, a gas canister or a knife will cool the attacker's ardor.
Of the improvised items in a fight, you can use a stone, a stick, a bottle, and even a stool. Girls often use sharp heels for kicks, long hairpins, spray deodorant spray into their eyes. It is also important to practice the use of weapons and improvised means at home, so as not to get confused at the right time and do everything right.
Psychological preparation
Remember that in a street fight there are no rules and no human relationships. Act with confidence, do the maximum damage to the attackers, do not think about the consequences. You are the weaker sex and any court will acquit you. Remember that "it is better to be judged by three than by four to bear."
Remember that it is better to avoid a fight than to win it. Don't look for trouble for yourself. This also means that if there is an opportunity to escape, run.
