'Flinch response' can be used in self-defence...
How this natural reaction can be used in a
street situation...?
"Forget the simultaneous defence and
attack nonsense - that ONLY comes with
prior knowledge of the assailant's
attack with Krav Maga conterreaction ,but if it is an ambush or sucker
punch, you AREN'T working with prior
knowledge otherwise you would have
pre-empted it or escaped in the
first place!
It is EASY in training if I know
what sort of attack to expect!
Let's say that my attacker is going to
grab my coat lapel...in response I
simultaneously trap his hand and
counter strike. Easy!
But if I tell him to attack me with
anything he wants, then that is a
different matter. Plus, remember you
are STILL waiting for an impending
attack.
If you didn't have a clue it was coming
anyway then you CANNOT react that fast
no matter how good you are.
You need to train fast reactions after
the flinch reflex. This is where it counts -
to be able to mentally and physically
counter attack and get off that back foot.
You should practice fast rapid fire striking
combinations varying the targets and totally
'blitz' the attacker until you are safe.
Learn to CHAIN your strikes together in a
flowing fashion just like machine gun fire.
'Use joined up handwriting and not block
capitals' .
Speed and aggression are vital to keep
your upper hand.
Train these strikes from close up and
in your face.
This is where you will have to use them,
not from four feet away!
Learn to be explosive over an 18'' to 12''
gap.
Use Krav Maga skills with hands, elbows, knees and your head
in rapid combinations - BATTERING through
your attacker's defences.
You must keep going until they are down or
you can escape."
