What Are The Effective Strikes In A Close Range?

There are strikes that can be very effective if you are at a certain distance. If the attacker makes the distance or gets close to you, you might not make your move like that. You can kick the attacker if he is in a kicking range and hit properly.

In case the attacker steps back and makes the distance, you might not be able to hit him. Again when you are in a close range, you cannot do kicks like side kick, front kick, or roundhouse kick. Does it mean you cannot use your legs to hit the attacker?

Of course, you can. You can do foot stomp, using the heel of your legs to hit the attacker's foot. This is actually painful. You can grab the attacker and control his movement in close range.

As you know, elbow strike is a very powerful and effective strike. You can do elbow strikes when you are close to the attacker. You can do knee charge. This is dangerous. You can make some serious damage by knee charge.

You can do hammer fist, chop, and shoulder strike. A shoulder strike is not possible if you are not in a very close range. By the way, whatever we talk about here about strikes, you have to practice and be good at that. Otherwise, in a stressful situation, you cannot use that in a fight.

Thanks for sharing those close contact self defense strikes. I have never taken a class in self defense so I would need a whole lot of learning and practice before I attempted any of these moves. I guess for now I am fortunate that I don't go anywhere by myself especially at night. I heard car keys can be an effective close contact weapon when used properly as well. But again that would take practice learning to not panic and drop my keys.

Yes, you can use car keys as well. Anything can be used as a weapon. Of course, you need the training to use that.
Thanks. Good to see you :)

Good for you. Always recommend learning martial art and self-defense from martial art instructors who have experience.
