    When we talk about using a chair, we automatically think of WWE or professional wrestling and the infamous chair shot. Thinking of how you would use random every day objects in self defense is a valuable visualization tool, and can cut down on the time it would take you to react.

    I completely agree with you! The surface area from thrusting would create more damage due to the smaller surface area. Plus it's the safest option and a higher probability of making contact.
    This is why Aikido is far more useful when looked at from a weapons perspective.

    Jay is back! :) Whenever I think of improvised self defence weapons I am thinking what has the shortest amount of backswing so my attack is disguised and what gives me the most amount of distance from my adversary. Throwing weapons is an on the street thing for me as its normally the precursor to running away and so not something to consider for home invasions. Love your videos guys and the podcast Mike, its weird because I am seeing them all in different order due to RUclips recommends.

  • @EVENINGWOLF666
    @EVENINGWOLF666 4 года назад +1

    So what about using it defensively, to block or parry? I was thinking when you were holding the chair up when it was folded that if someone were to take a swing at you and you put the chair in the way their fist hitting the metal seat of that chair could do some damage to their fist...or using the chair to hit their arm as they swing, or their leg as they kick...and those are just the first things that come to mind...I"m sure with a little thought you could come up wit more options for blocks and parries with the chair, either folded or open.

  • @danpearman270
    @danpearman270 4 года назад

    A quick story that shows why Mike is right about the need to have a plan - a few years ago, around 3am, I was sat in my living room, heard a noise from the other room and went to investigate. I found a guy halfway through my bedroom window. I was able to deal with it by talking to him very clearly while holding both sides of his head with my thumbs just below his eyes, and encouraged him to leave (what's the alternative - pull him in and have to fight him, or push him out and have him kick through the glass?). I was extremely lucky - 10-15 seconds later and he would have been on his feet inside the room and things could have gone quite differently. But what really irritated me afterwards was the realisation that on the way to investigate the noise I had passed a good dozen or so usable weapons that could have been important difference makers if the situation had gone differently and I didn't pick up a single one of them - because I didn't have a plan...

  • @DoomRater
    @DoomRater 4 года назад

    Also I'd be pretty happy controlling the chair with one hand while open and finding myself something long but also one handed, which basically gives me Mace and Shield style western martial arts options. Not quite sword and shield but close enough where there's carryover. Use of the chair one or two handed beats a knife, so there's that. Bas Rutten even says in his Lethal Street Defense video "create some distance and grab a chair" while picking up a bar stool. It's legit

    Hey Mike love the videos bro. But wanted to ask a question. I am 55 and am getting back into boxing training on a double ended back and slip bag. The problem I have is the best way to train for self defense as I am getting older and am vulnerable for the following reason which is which I stopped many years ago doing any club training. I have a rare condition which result in multiple tumors over 30 plus in my torso which cause chronic pain and other issues. Yet I still want to train at home to improve my technique and speed so at least I might make a mugger or asshole starting trouble to think twice and hopefully back off. Because of my condition training in a gym or dojo is no longer viable but in self defense I want to have the best chance. So how do you train on your own to give yourself a fighting chance. Thanks as always Mike any advice is appreciated. Thanks JF
