My SABRE Pepper Gel expired, so I'm looking for a replacement to keep in my car.
I want the most effective option possible—something that can stop an attacker as quickly as possible. From what I've read, a spray/stream seems like a better choice than gel, but I'm open to hearing otherwise.
Is POM actually better than SABRE Red, or is it mostly marketing? If POM is the better pick, which version would you recommend?
I studied Silat for a number of months only and while it was fun I was skeptical of effectiveness of a lot of the drills. I am curious on what others think of this art?
In BJJ even a child can quickly perform a takedown on me if I stand still and let it happen. Then thats only the beginning.
In Silat if a student was shorter or weighed less than me they would really struggle to pull a move off even if I stood still and let them step, push, pull and do whatever to manipulate my balance while I held in place.... then the drill would end after the move was performed.
Has anyone read Timeline of Self Defense by
King? I just got it and it is really diffrent… Not sure my opinion yet! It is a fun read. But very different from other books I have looked at. Just curious if anyone else has read it?
Faced a guy walking towards me and started shouting at around 50m distance. He moved his arm. I quickly scanned him and didn’t think he was a danger, more deranged, so I walked past him calmly.
In case he would have been a danger and I sense I must dash. How do I dash. Walking backwards? Walking on right lane, he’s moving towards me from the left. To my right brick wall. To my left open street.
What is the best option here to remove myself from his attack range?
I appreciate your help.
I’m a male. The class I joined teaches a variety of martial arts styles, such as Karate, Taekwondo, Krav Maga, BJJ, Judo and some Boxing.
What should I expect ? I’m an introvert so I’m a little nervous about meeting a bunch of new people. I don’t imagine we will have to talk much lol. The classes are one hour long.
