In this video we look at three options for guarding against fast, aggressive punches. We demonstrate conventional and unconventional guards, test the techniques under pressure and explain how the elbow can be used as an effective weapon to enhance your defensive guard and potentially disable your attacker by breaking their hands. It is important to note that no matter how effective your defensive guard, it will be overcome eventually. An attacker only needs to get lucky once. This is why counter attacking, gaining the upper hand against your attacker(s) and making a swift escape is vital. This video focuses specifically on the guards. We will look at options for counter striking against punches in future videos! We hope you enjoy :) Cheers Ryan
