Bunkai Karate pressure points - they really work under pressure?

You get discussed from time to time on Karate bunkai (applications) with pressure point strikes. Some argue that keeping your pressure points ultra-effective techniques, while others, who in the heat of the moment, you will find the accuracy of the item while someone tries to take the same time.

So who is right? Well, in my humble opinion the truth lies somewhere in between, and depends on the circumstances.

If you have a quarrel with 6ftin part, quit, then the exchange of blows with an opponent capable of, I think it would be difficult (but not impossible) to find pressure point targets. Just think, if you are sparring against someone of equal skill can be difficult landing a blow on the chest (this is a great goal), much less championed the search for a pressure point to be very low. Also, if you're an adrenaline dump, your motor skills are not working as efficiently. For this reason, many people advocateFocus on the development of your techniques (regardless of type), which allows you to quickly and efficiently, and will hurt the opponent, where you met them.

Other side of the coin, however, very few fights start 6ft away. Usually start much closer to dealing with rude churches antagonists, such as "fornication, visually watch! Or something.

In this type of scenario if you truly believe that attacked, and hasunable to speak for your attacker at some point, you can take the decision that the struggle for a sense in him instead. I'm not talking about someone, call names or jump a queue, but a genuine threat of imminent violence. In this scenario, a preemptive strike to a pressure point will be much more successful. The enemy is still attitudes, even psychologically, he is not going right for him. There is no need to step back in a watch, as only he warns thatAre you an expert martial artist and tips him off to attack even more emphasis.

It is best with what Geoff Thompson "fence" to open his hand and calls down in a position of neutrality universal foot apart in a fixed rate (but not a martial arts attitude) to talk with some of his brain box ( nothing is ever - no matter about the polar bears!), then hit quickly and hard as you can in a sore spot.

Now some traditionalists may be a bit 'until it hung like Funikoshi (founder of Shotokan Karate), said in his karate not to attack first. It was idle you need there and wait for the other person has been interpreted to throw the first blow. That is obviously not very practical. What I really meant was that we are not looking for a fight. Elsewhere Funikoshi described as addressing an attack without any sign of struggle to get away with a preemptive strike thento help.

And, as I heard Kevin O'Hagan: "You do not really want a fair fight you"? At least she has not started.

There are also other considerations. First, if the attacker is drunk or drugs, they do not even feel much like the senses are dulled, their aggression can be increased.

Secondly, if your attacker is completely hyped Adrenalized will feel less. Have you ever cracked your shinbone against someone else in combat? Do you think"Ouch," to give a quick rub and go. But if you crack your shin on a table when you are completely relaxed, it seems to hurt like crazy.

Why do not you feel much sparring? Its because you were fully warmed up and your adrenaline flowing. However, if you (or attackers) are square real comparison, you have many more adrenalin in the body when sparring. They are worth much more without even thinking about it ..... absorband him! Kevin O'Hagan reports a case in America where a man attacked a policeman with a knife. The officer shot the man four times, but the attacker managed to get even the Police and Sting before collapsing. How well you know your pressure point striking Swing against a knife attacker, who with four bullets in it continues to work.

Boxers are known for breaking the bones of the hand early in a fight, but always end the fight.

I witnessed an incident in a pub, manyYears, when there was a clash between two boys. One, of course, wanted to fight, and not another. Very quickly, my friend, Daren, intervened to calm down. Daren is now a great friend solidly built, with a very friendly attitude, although not the kind of guy who would get the wrong side.

Daren as he tried to calm the assailant, was met with a total lack of reason and logic. Daren lost control and went for the boy. It took threeDaren hampering us, shouting and screaming with rage whole animal, with her sister tried to dissuade him from it. The guy who started it all was white. My friend Keith (who can be seen on my blog demonstrates bunkai to see me) tries to calm a pressure point Daren below. Daren in his fury to complete even notice.

After some 'calming Daren and the fact that other end to hasty (and clever). When Daren Keith met a few days later and asked him what was that allWere over, has a cheeky smile and Daren said: "Stress six months in a few minutes."

People are in a position a lot of offense, which puts angry, adrenalised, or just specific enough to finish the job, it is suggested that pressure points can be restricted at someone in anger or fully adrenalised.

That is, there are some points, no matter how drunk, high or Adrenalized is a person can not be countered. An attack on respiratory routesthat we breathe is almost always working, whether a strike or a strangulation. But a lot of anger if it could be someone who can not breathe, can not fight.

Attach the carotid sinus (side of the neck where you feel the pulse), causes blood pressure to fall on the brain and then the attacker off. This can affect the action (to do mostly hand knife) or Druze.

Even growing a blow to the chin or side of the jaw line causes the brain to bounce againstthe rear of the skull and non-reflexivity.

These points (and a few others) would normally operate in all conditions, even if you want to have a preventive rather than a struggle of all the success.

While I think that pressure points are valuable, and place himself there, should not be treated as a substitute or a shortcut to perfect your technique. While most of us recognize that technology can actually only 50% when under pressure, 50% goodThe technique is much better than 50% a bad technique. If you are unable to obtain a pre-emptive strike, it will easily hit with your offense as hard as you can wherever you can, to a good destination are available. Until then, however, can also be adrenalised the place of beginning, a side effect of adrenaline, the blood goes from the brain to slow down your muscles, your thinking process.

Even if you're lucky enough to get into a good pre-emptive strikeStrike, strike, which must be quickly, hard and often at a certain angle brings us back to good technology.

Russell Stutely is recognized as number one in Europe's leading expert in the fight against the pressure point. I remember writing one of its bulletins, where people asked him, because he spends so much time pressure points. However, his answer was that it was only a small amount of training on pressure points, with most of his personal training and power bases areDevelopment, etc. If you are looking for franchising Russell training program, deals with points of balance, power generation and other aspects before you start on the pressure points. So if Europe's number one expert on kata bunkai pressure points, no shortcuts and abandonment of its bases, we should not.
