...een gigantisch zelfvertrouwen krijgen en denken dat ze nu iedereen met gemak een koppie kleiner kunnen maken

Net weer een discussie met een krav maga tutje, man man hoe delusional kun je worden. Ze zou al die WWF wrestlers makkelijk afmaken omdat dat allemaal show was en ze niet echt kunnen vechten (figuur in kwestie is 17 jaar en weegt <50kg

). Na een zoek-de-verschillen 'zou zij toch wel winnen want ze was klein en daarom sneller en niet zo log'
Dit is echter een trend die steeds vaker voorkomt, neem bijvoorbeeld dit filmpje:
en dan 2:25 (for the record: ja ik zou haar ook doen ja), met zo'n grote overtuiging zo ongelooflijk veel onzin uit kunnen kramen... die video is overigens op een ander forum gepost door de trainer, wat excerpts:

Looks like a very physically demanding class, and I know you've got the right mindset to teach it.
Just make sure you take care of that hot little blond who took her first class and thinks she can brawl with a guy.

Interesting except that none of this would work against even an average man that wants to create mayhem on a woman...not to say women shouldn't learn to fight. But women shouldn't be under the delusion that they can kick a man's ass...it won't work out too well for them.

Well, I happen to know a few psychos who would want to prove how big their balls were (figuratively, of course) and try this shit out on a dude. The guy would either back down or kill the chick.

Fun but useless... if you are a small woman you can't do much (keyword here, 'not much' does not equal 'nothing'). Knees in the groin area can be misplaced very easily, it's just that a lot of people associate a knee with pain in the crotch due to cultural reasons... A kick in the crotch is a very effective weapon for a woman when defense is needed against a male opponent because you do not need to employ a lot of force behind it.
All the other things, mainly the elbows/punches displayed in the video... well... just no. Chokes and perhaps some locks/bars might also work but meh.
Best thing to do is focus on endurance/speed and some techniques that allow you to stun/flinch the opponent and then just run.
en als klap op de vuurpijl een 'drill'

quote:
greed, this is always a struggle. I seek out real-life situations either by talking to cops, reading newspaper accounts of attacks & books like Meditations on Violence & Gift of Fear, then design a drill around it. The skills that will be used in the drill are what I teach in class. For instance, I read that when someone's adrenaline spikes & their fine motor skills go to hell they often can't dial 911. If they can punch the numbers at all they'll often forget to hit "send" (cell phone) or hit 9 first (office building) or they'll hit 411 over & over (information #). So the drill is to have them turn off their cell phones & place them on one end of the room. I also have 2 dead cell phones over there with buttons in case they have iPhones that can't be dialed when turned off. Students begin on the opposite side of the room from the phones. One person has a large kickshield held against their body & stands right up on the "defender", nose to nose. On my cue the defenders give the "attackers" a hard shove & start fighting their way across the room to the phones using punches, palmheels, elbows, & knees. The whole time the padholder is giving strong resistance & screaming in their face to crank up their adrenaline. Once they finally reach the phone they grab it & dial 911-send while their pad holder is screaming various numbers at them to try to throw them off - kind of like when someone is counting out change & you start giggling & saying wrong numbers to throw them off. Same concept. So, knowing that's the drill, we work punches, palmheels, elbows & knees in class that day. Then I talk about the effect adrenaline has on the body & mind, & the concept of moving to harder techniques when what you're doing isn't cutting it. Then we do the drill
