Target Areas of the Body

A key element to finishing a street fight quickly and safely is to target the most vulnerable areas of your opponent’s body. Ideally, the best target areas on your opponent’s body are those that render him unconscious or prevent him from fighting back. Target areas are best attacked with combination strikes (example: jab to the eyes, kick to the groin, hammerfist to the jaw-line). To improve accuracy with combination strikes, use shadowboxing, cooperative partners and marked punching bags or training dummies.
