SELF DEFENSE FOR BOYS, GIRLS, MEN AND WOMEN
THE HAMMER FIST STRIKE – VERSATILE, EASY-TO-DO, AND DEVASTATING.
This month I am conducting another 4-week Self Defense for Women program. I have 18 beautiful and energetic women all of whom are committed to protecting themselves so they can enjoy the adventures and joys life has to offer. The thought of some miscreant attacking, dragging off and killing any of them energizes me into giving them the best self protection techniques I know.
The problem in any class such as this, though, is to teach as many skills as possible in the short time I have them without teaching so many that they forget almost ell of them when the time comes to use the skills. It is a fact that the human mind can only absorb so much, and, worse, under stress, when the resting heart rate spikes from 70 BPM to about 250 BPM, it is only possible to retrieve a survival skills when the student has repeated the skill at least 25 times during training in correlation with the actual threat (The Condition/Stimulus Response Training Principle).
Thus, the Hammer Fist Strike. Second only, in my opinion, to the extremely versatile Palm Heel Strike (which I have extolled in past posts), the Hammer Fist is a terrific strike for any woman to employ against any attacker who attempts to drag a girl or woman away from the Initial Crime Scene (where she is found) to the deadly Secondary Crime Scene (where she is raped, injured, tortured and/or killed in an isolated, secluded environment)
WHY THE HAMMER FIST?
- It is easy to use. Easy to do. Just make a strong fist, which anybody can do. Strike with the bottom of the Hammer Fist on the opposite side where the thumb resides. This creates a hard, unforgiving surface, much like the peen of a hammer.
- It is very powerful because it is delivered in a downward motion, from shoulder height. Imagine you are going to deliver the Hammer Fist through the target to the other side of the target. If the woman/girl hits and sticks on the target – as opposed to bouncing off – the effect will be much more devastating.
- It is also a relatively versatile strike. Not only can it be delivered downward into the target, it can be driven backward into the genitals as the man attempts to grab the woman.
- The Very, Very Vulnerable and Effective Targets include the :
- NOSE. The nose, in my opinion is one of the five Primary Targets (Groin/Eyes/Nose/(K)Nees/Throat). Driving the Hammer Fist straight down on the nose will temporarily stop the attack because it will cause instant tearing, an inability to see, and, very likely, will break the nose. The nose is always a great target because, no matter the size and strength of the attacker, he can not develop any resistance to the punch in his nose! More than that, a good strike to the nose will result in overwhelming pain.
- GROIN. The groin is also a great Primary Target. Striking the groin with even a deflected strike will still startle and distract the Bad Guy at the very least, giving the woman time and opportunity to deliver another strike. A solid strike to the groin, however, will stop the attacker in his tracks! How to do this? Form the same Hammer Fist and imagine the Bad Guy is very close to you and standing behind you at a slight angle. Simply drive the Hammer Fist straight back (imagine you are facing away from a door and you wish to knock on that door with your fist.
- FLOATING RIBS. Can’t get at the groin with the first strike? No problem, deliver the same backward strike into his ribs. The ribs are a Secondary Target, but the affect will be toi open up other targets.
Remember. One strike will hardly ever stop him! Never stop hitting him until you are safe.
Until next time, stay safe.
