fighting drunks, dopers, the deranged and others who tolerate pain


There is a truth in the world of hand-to-hand combat that too many martial artists aren't aware of or refuse to believe: Every time you discover a sure-thing technique, one that makes all your training partners groan and writhe in agony, there exists out there in the mean streets, a host of people who won’t feel it. People like these:

• Attackers with large muscle bulk or large fat bulk
• Attackers intoxicated on alcohol
• Attackers under the influence of drugs
• Attackers out of control with rage
• Attackers who are mentally deranged
• Attackers who feel pain but like it

This book isn't about working out with a training partner - it's about surviving a desperate street attack against a nightmare who doesn't acknowledge what you thought was your best shot.

Best selling martial arts author Loren W. Christensen's service as a military policeman during the Vietnam War, his 25 years as a street cop, and his training in the martial arts since 1965 have provided him with real-world experience dealing with violent people, especially those who have a high tolerance to pain. Loren shows you dozens of tried-and-true, step-by-step techniques that target specific parts of the body that will disorient a pain-resistant assailant, destroy his will, and disable his physical ability to keep attacking.

once again I am indebted 5

Reviewer: Tim Crews from N/A

You have taught me many things over the years Loren, and once again I am indebted to your writings. A couple of weeks back they brought in a female for an emergency committal hearing to the state hospital. She had assaulted the officer who picked her up for court before he got her subdued.
As soon as I got her she refused a pat down. At this point, I got a call from the undersheriff indicating she had been seen earlier in the day with a handgun. I immediately secured her hands to the booking bench and we proceeded to search her. That’s when she suddenly flipped out. She got a hold of my pectoral and twisted it so hard that if it had not been for my undershirt, she would have likely ripped off my nipple.  I applied pressure to the mastoid process, which I learned from your book Fighting the Pain Resistant Attacker. This move was the only way we could get her to release her grip on me. We got the search done and transported her to the hospital without further incident.

changed my point of view on self-defense 5

Reviewer: Papa Brehuescu Delia Mihaela from Italy

I'm Michela from Italy and I've read your book "FIGHTING THE PAIN RESISTANT ATTACKER". It's really cool! It's funny, too, with lots of stories. It treats the vital points in an easy to learn manner and includes applications.
 
It changed my point of view on self-defense. I'm impatient to see / read the next DVD or book I'm going to buy. I'm not sure which one as there are a few I'm interested in. As soon as I finish Kim Sang's book "Vital Points Striking".
