The Chemical Cocktail...

In reading Sgt Rory Miller's fantastic book, Meditations on Violence: A Comparison of Martial Arts training and Real-World Violence,
one aspect he discusses at great length is the chemical cocktail,i.e., the adrenaline dump that takes place in your body prior to any physical altercation. He states that while the chemical cocktail makes most people more dangerous, it tends to make trained fighters LESS dangerous because while it increase strenght, short-term speed and pain tolerance it DECREASES fine and complex motor skill activity.

In other words, the old "if someone grabs your RIGHT wrist, do THIS," type of crap just doesn't cut it. Self defense is all about applying the maximum amount of damage to the opponent while sustaining as little damage as possible in the quickest way. And, based on the statistics from Miller's research, the only sure-fire way to achieve such goals is to employ GROSS motor skills consisting of simple, direct, efficient and thereby practical moves designed to target an opponent's vulnerable points.
