All the best martial artists have studied world wide incorporate the different variety and ways to win fights. Self defense training increases physical fitness and muscular endurance levels too. Today I would like to talk about reality based self defense tips showing you how to win a street fight:

Here are five rules on self defense training:

#1 - You won't win a street fight on the ground. Your opponent could have friends that can out muscle you, stomp you and knock you unconscious. If you have a chance to get up and leave the combat circle the better. Keep the street fight on the feet to win.

#2 - Don't use all your power on your lead strike. Most people that haven't studied self defense training, attack with all the power and ability in the first strike they throw. The key is to quickly adapt and throw a barrage of strikes with intensity and the ability to break leverage and control over your attacker to increase chances of winning a street fight!

#3 - Always be aware of your surroundings. If you can be aware and keep an attack from happening in the first place will save you a lot of stress and pain. Being aware of your surroundings like looking behind you via car windows and store front windows, listening to the sounds and being consciously aware of shady people will keep you safer and is an essential part of self defense training.

#4 - Be properly street fighting stress trained and prepared. You must actually practice combat under stressful conditions and adapt and get used to being hit and overcome the fear of taking blows. You can read all the articles and books you want, but without sparring your training will be in vain.

#5 - Know how to win a street fight with little strength or speed.. I have been in a lot of life threatening street scenarios and would like to remind you what's easy and works are the only things you need for proper self defense training.

Always use common sense and remember if you can run away from a fight happening that is considered self defense too!
