Martial Arts!

[Snowflake]

I call that instinctive whoopin' someones behind...At times you'll surprise yourself with what you do when your instincts take over, moreover adrenaline! I dont know how it works but it can do mysterious things! It can make you jump over walls that on a normal day aren't possible when being chased by the police, hoestly, and no i didnt get chased by the police, im not that much of a chav, although there are those who think i am lol..

T'was actually a friend of mine, yes a chav lol...He said to me there was no way he would be able to jump over that wall, but he was being chased by the police, and there was also a BIG dog on the loose in the garden that he was passing by in, and somehow he managed to get over!

Chavs! i tell u chavs!

That makes me feel a bit better now. You're right it's instinct. The need to survive. And adrenaline as you say. I know what made me do it. It was fear that if I didn't hurt her, then she'd hurt me. But I never wanna experience blind rage again. *shudders*

I am? lol. Is that what it is? Oh man, I didn't know I had it in me That's horrible! I feel such a chicken nowadays.

natural instincts can do many things. i can make a mother lift a tree 10 men can't lift to save a child, make a person jump out a burning building and live where as normal fall would kill anyone. There was on time on Real TV, in one story, there was mass flood water in the area and there was a helicopter that some how got stuck in the raging river of water. There was like 10 guys trying to live the helicopter to get a guy out that was buried under it and in the water. This big fat guy almost single handedly lifted the helicopter up out the water while the others got the guy out. So we are weak by nature but miracle workers at times of desperation.:thumbs_up

When attcked:

If you can hit hard enough, then go for the nose- this will disturb his vision AND his breathing which means you can run, fast

Just on that, the best technique whether you study karate, taekwondo or whatever, is a simple vertical punch to the nose, its fast and will break through a tight defence even if his/her hands are up. If it doesn't go through it means his/her hands are practically in front of his/her eyes in which case a good palm strike to the ears would work well.

Remember though that simply throwing 1 punch and expecting the person to go down is not the best strategy, chances are they may have some understanding fighting experience (though very limited) in which case multiple strikes are necessary though do not aim to kill them. I.e nose, ears, solar plexus, shins, knees....and if they have earrings....even better!

Multiple punchs are needed most times, there are the odd occasions that the one crisp punch or elbow caught on ones chin, ear, solar plexus or nose can make them tumble down right before you.

When they can sense that they see/taste their own blood they go into a situation of panic, this can be either good or bad. Good because they'll sense that they are getting beaten up lol panic, breather hard, lose all sense and you can crack them again....Bad b'cos they could develop the adrenaline rush that will give them that one chance to retaliate, been there and did i retaliate!

So an easy place to bust is the nose, watch blood flowing out, and then throw a 'dummy' punch a bit lower dont actually land it, watch them lower their hands to protect themselves, hence they leave their face open...BIF BAM POW ZAZ KPOW! Batman and Robbin style

wowowow MashaaAllah, i never imagined this thread to become so popular SubhanAllah. im so excited to know so many people love martial arts as much as i do. Unfortunatly i havent read thru all the pages yet. So when i get to that InshaaAllah i'll join in on the chat!!

But in the meantime i want to know. What should you focus on mostly when you know very well that the person who youre facing is stronger. Not nessesarily(sp?) faster, but undoubtably stronger. How do you take down a person like this? where should your focus be? Because all the things ive read people say so far, they're good but normally a stronger person (sometimes) can endure more pain, which means it takes alot more to bring this person down, whereas in the contary if they hit you just the same you'll go down faster/easier. Anyone have any tips? any personal expriences even prehaps?

I don't think it matter if the person is stronger. They can still be just as sensitive to pain as someone weaker. So I guess the same techniques will work just as effectively. Hopefully the better informed bros can give you better advice inshaAllah.

However, if you literally want to knock your opponent off their feet, I do know one trick that works regardless of their size and strength. You gotta be fast though. What you gotta do is hook your leg behind both of theirs and at the same time push them as hard as you can in the chest. This will make even the tallest person go flying backwards if done properly. :thumbs_up

;D

lemme know how it goes.. can't wait

just make sure when you hook your leg behind his, do it behind his knees making them bend. So knees go forward, upper body goes back and person (or step dad in your case) goes flying backwards. Lol, make sure he has a soft landing. :giggling:

and make sure he doesn't grab you while falling and... hahahaha

yep a simple leg sweep can work, but realistically if you aint trained, you will be leaving your face open for attack...Even still a sweep from behind can also be affective...Another thing, once you hit someone, eventually their legs will go weak, and can end up like spaghetti hence they fall over, therefore they are prone to be feeling a bit out of line if you hit them sweetly on the face, and then it wont take too many more blows to drop them

This is why boxers and thai boxers train their legs alot especially the thai dudes for obvious reasons[they use legs to attack], for the reason that they do usually get hit quite a bit, and they are bound to get hit sweetly at some time or another, do stronger legs just helps them to keep balance and upright.

FiamanaAllah

We've been looking for a female instructor for taekwando but we can't find one anywhere :mmokay:

 

[Snowflake]

Where r u if you don't mind me asking sis?




Btw, punchbags are expensive so does anyone know how to make one at home? What would you put in it? And how much should it weigh? Please don't say put bricks in it.

 

[...]

I mainly did kick-boxing and i really enjoyed it.. I reached about the fourth belt and won the trophy :statisfie but...! I had to leave

That class isn't available anymore and we've been looking for taekwando recently but to no avail

What about you sis?

 

[HBot 5000]

Im Martial arts infatuated....Anyone else on here like/love or interested in martial arts?

I love taekwondo, and jujitsu....and lately MMA has drawn my attention. For any Martial Artist out there, what do you guys do for home excerise and to practise and stuff?

I feel you on this one. Over here its the same thing. All the teachers are male. And even it seems all the qualified students are male. Go figure.

neither does getting beaten up - its all just self defence

*sigh* May Allah teach us self defence so that we may carry out the fard on every muslim to defend his wealth, his family and his property... Amin!!

Ameen! And martial arts is so much more than 'fighting' only the one who only knows a little thinks that way. Even if you only learn Martial arts for self defense they never teach you 'violence' its always self benefit and fighting is ALWAYS the last result. So anyone who claims that Martial arts is violence has clearly never practised Martial Arts in truth.

But hay sis, are you only into TKD? or do you have any other style you like?
