Re: Real Life
Beat you to it. Check out the “dog bite” thread posted on this page.
Here’s the deal, IMNSHO: Krav Maga gets us prepared for the “Oh ****!” moments. Most people (decent people, anyway) have a natural hesitation when shocked by an unexpected threatening situation. Because Krav Maga trains us under stressful conditions, we are better able to deal when confronted by such situations. Our training breaks us through the hesitation and teaches us that the aggressor will prevail.
We revert to our level of training. Every time. For example, I teach palm strikes to our new police officers, telling them that this technique will keep their hands protected. But when I’m in my situation the other day, I hit the bad guy with a closed right fist. The reason – I boxed all my life. I simply defaulted to what I knew best.
Train hard. Push yourself and those around you. Good luck!
