Why most professional pressure point can not use the vital points effectively in most situations of self-defense? If 'll pardon the pun, why not work … under pressure?

Pressure points have many uses in self-defense, if you know how and when to use them. And yet, you have to overcome logistical problems.

Pressure Point Problems and Solutions: Unable find the right place

Hmm – the pressure point worked in practice martial arts, but when I tried at full speed, it just seems that may not cause pain, limited movement or strength of the attacker to move. It does not work.

One of the main reasons this happens is a failure to generalize martial artists. It is not enough to apply a pressure point for the same type of class in week after week. Body sizes vary, and this can make it difficult to find the exact point on the right.

The solution is to work at the same point again and again … first with the same person, and then, with many practice partners different (10 to 20). Believe me, if you practice the same place again and again, week after week, on different martial artists, you get an idea of the exact place that causes more pain.

Pressure point problems and solutions: no in the correct position to Apply pressure

You know a lot of pressure point – Let's say one of an inch above the elbow on the inside.

Then in a fight, his attacker follows kicking you. This keeps you away from your enemy. How do you defend yourself with a pressure point?

You too far.

And even when they manage to pass the defense of the leg, still can not get to a point in the one on the inside of the arm. What do?

The solution to the problem of point of pressure to expand their repertoire of pressure points. If you can not reach the inside of the arm, and then find one in the leg of his attacker. Once you get past the leg, find the pressure point that is close to the kidneys. And so on.

If you have a pressure point or two in reserve for each area of the body, then no matter that you can not get to your favorite area vital one.
