The perfect training partner for self-defense
The Bob Dummy (Ad) is the perfect way to practice some of your self defense techniques.
When you know you have to strike your opponent, you want to prepare yourself.
The first step of preparation is to completely relax your body so all the tension can leave and
you can better focus on your performance.
In many situations when you need to face your attacker, it’s rare that the fight will be long.
Usually, fights last anywhere from 15 seconds to max 60 seconds, which is why you want to
make sure that all your strikes are efficient and with purpose.
Knowing that you only have a very short period of time to neutralize your opponent, you want
to make sure that each hit you give is effective and to the point.
That’s why it’s important that each strike you give to your opponent is followed through with
another. You don’t want to be taking breaks in between each punch you throw.
The importance of movement during a fight

By stopping, you’re giving your attacker the chance to fight back and that’s something you
want to be avoiding at all costs. Therefore, it’s crucial for you to follow through each strike.
Additionally, you can’t keep the same position as you hit your target. You need to keep your
body moving.
Move your body as you strike your opponent, that way you are aiming other areas and your
strikes are much more effective.
By not staying in one place and continuously moving, you’re at an advantage because your
opponent doesn’t know where you’re moving and you’re not giving them a chance to trap you
in a position.
