The debate about which is more effective in a fight \u2013 a fist or a flat hand \u2013 is an old one. Most often, however, your hand automatically clenches into a fist before a blow. The important thing here is to do it without injuring your fingers. Don\u2019t expose your thumb, but don\u2019t hide it under your fingers either: this can lead to fracturing.\n
Don\u2019t neglect using the flat of your hand in a fight: this type of blow will come as more of a surprise.\n
2. How to break free of cord:\n
\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nThe main thing you need to do is leave some room for air. If your hands are being tied, keep them clenched in fists. If your body is being tied, breathe in so that your diaphragm expands. The more room there is left between you and your ties, the more chances you have to escape.\n
3. How to break free of duct tape:\n
\n
If your hands are bound by duct tape, you can actually tear it apart rather simply: raise your hands above your head, and then thrust them down with a lot of force. This method can be applied even if your hands are bound from behind.\n
4. Remember the vulnerable areas.\n
\u00a9 depositphotos\nYou are likely to be less physically strong than your attacker, so you have to rely on the element of surprise. Remember to strike a blow as hard and as swiftly as you can. If you think or aim for too long, your adversary will figure out your intentions and get even angrier.\n
5. Use security apps.\n
\u00a9 depositphotos\nPut modern methods to use: applications such as Family Locator, bSafe, and others will allow you to track the movements of your friends and relatives or send out a distress signal if necessary.\n
6. Invent a code word.\n
In childhood, many of us invent codes, new words, or even languages. This seemingly impractical hobby could save your life. If you don\u2019t have a chance to talk or text, an encrypted SOS will tell of your predicament. And if you take your rebus-composing even further, your rescuers could learn the direction where you\u2019ve been taken or even the exact place where you were left.\n
7. Use the materials on hand.\n
\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nUse any object that could help. Your purse can serve as a shield from a knife assault (just don\u2019t press it too close to your body); your scarf can be thrown in an attacker\u2019s face to buy you a couple of seconds. Umbrellas, bags, and even small change in your pocket can be of help. Keys are one of the best tools \u2013 just don\u2019t waste time trying to use them as a knuckleduster.\n
8. Keep your pepper spray in the right place.\n
\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nThere\u2019s no point in keeping a pepper spray in your bag if there is a bottomless black hole inside. Assaults usually occur unexpectedly, and you have to snatch out your defensive tool as quickly as possible. Keep it in your pocket so you can promptly use it and run away.\n
9. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the hand:\n
\n
You can escape from a hand grip by using the “rule of thumb”: rotate your hand toward the attacker\u2019s thumb. Remember that you should do it in a quick, sharp jerk. If the assailant realizes your plan, he\u2019ll squeeze your hand with all his strength. In this case, use your feet: hit him in the groin and knees, and step on his feet with as much force as you can.\n
10. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the hair:\n
\n
One of the most common ways of assaulting is capturing the victim\u2019s hair. Not only is this technique painful, but it also provides almost total control over the victim\u2019s body. First of all, grab the attacker\u2019s hand with both of your hands: this will let you regain control. Then it\u2019s time to make use of your feet again. As soon as you feel that the attacker\u2019s hand has loosened its grip, let go of it and run.\n
11. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the neck:\n
\n
Hit the attacker in the groin, or poke his eyes with your fingers: pain will make him loosen his grasp.\n
12. In an elevator:\n
\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nEveryone knows that you shouldn\u2019t go into an elevator with strangers and that you\u2019d better leave if someone suspicious enters after you. Make it a habit to stand with your back to the part of the wall where the buttons are. It\u2019s better to press a button for your fellow traveler than to let him stop the elevator and get stuck between floors with him.\n
13. In a car:\n\u00a9 depositphotos\nAs in the case of the elevator, it\u2019s possible to prevent an assault. In addition to the standard rule of not getting into a car with strangers, you can pointedly tell someone on the phone (or at least write down) the car\u2019s number, color, and destination for your driver to see and hear. If an assault still happens, aim for vulnerable areas: groin, nose, and eyes.\n
14. Learn to administer first aid.\n
\u00a9 depositphotos\nIf you have ignored them until now, here are the essential rules of providing first aid. There may be a situation where you or someone else is injured, and a hospital might not be immediately available. In this case, your first aid measures could save a life.\n
A few more rules you might find useful:\n\n- Be on guard. Music in your headphones, the screen of your smartphone, or just the habit of looking under your feet might distract you from noticing a perpetrator. Look around and behind you from time to time: if the assailant loses the element of surprise, he might change his mind about attacking.\n
- Keep your distance. Try to avoid being cornered at all costs. Even if the assailant is bearing down on you, don\u2019t step back. Move aside, and try to change your movement trajectory.\n
- Keep your palms in front of you. This is not only a defensive position (just make sure that your hands are on the same level with your chin and your elbows are half-bent) but also a conciliatory one. This is a way of saying, “Calm down. Let\u2019s settle this in peace.” At the same time, you let the attacker know that you\u2019re capable of fighting back.\n
- Run. Even if you master all the tricks, you won\u2019t become a superhero. There\u2019s no need to try your physical strength against an assailant. Your main objective is to stay in one piece. These are your 3 immediate goals: wrench free, disorient the attacker, escape.\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

- Keep your distance. Try to avoid being cornered at all costs. Even if the assailant is bearing down on you, don\u2019t step back. Move aside, and try to change your movement trajectory.\n
- Keep your palms in front of you. This is not only a defensive position (just make sure that your hands are on the same level with your chin and your elbows are half-bent) but also a conciliatory one. This is a way of saying, “Calm down. Let\u2019s settle this in peace.” At the same time, you let the attacker know that you\u2019re capable of fighting back.\n
- Run. Even if you master all the tricks, you won\u2019t become a superhero. There\u2019s no need to try your physical strength against an assailant. Your main objective is to stay in one piece.

Use any object that could help. Your purse can serve as a shield from a knife assault (just don\u2019t press it too close to your body); your scarf can be thrown in an attacker\u2019s face to buy you a couple of seconds. Umbrellas, bags, and even small change in your pocket can be of help. Keys are one of the best tools \u2013 just don\u2019t waste time trying to use them as a knuckleduster.\n
8. Keep your pepper spray in the right place.\n\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nThere\u2019s no point in keeping a pepper spray in your bag if there is a bottomless black hole inside. Assaults usually occur unexpectedly, and you have to snatch out your defensive tool as quickly as possible. Keep it in your pocket so you can promptly use it and run away.\n
9. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the hand:\n
\n
You can escape from a hand grip by using the “rule of thumb”: rotate your hand toward the attacker\u2019s thumb. Remember that you should do it in a quick, sharp jerk. If the assailant realizes your plan, he\u2019ll squeeze your hand with all his strength. In this case, use your feet: hit him in the groin and knees, and step on his feet with as much force as you can.\n
10. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the hair:\n
\n
One of the most common ways of assaulting is capturing the victim\u2019s hair. Not only is this technique painful, but it also provides almost total control over the victim\u2019s body. First of all, grab the attacker\u2019s hand with both of your hands: this will let you regain control. Then it\u2019s time to make use of your feet again. As soon as you feel that the attacker\u2019s hand has loosened its grip, let go of it and run.\n
11. If you\u2019ve been grabbed by the neck:\n
\n
Hit the attacker in the groin, or poke his eyes with your fingers: pain will make him loosen his grasp.\n
12. In an elevator:\n\u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos, \u00a9 depositphotos\nEveryone knows that you shouldn\u2019t go into an elevator with strangers and that you\u2019d better leave if someone suspicious enters after you. Make it a habit to stand with your back to the part of the wall where the buttons are. It\u2019s better to press a button for your fellow traveler than to let him stop the elevator and get stuck between floors with him.\n
13. In a car:\n\u00a9 depositphotos\nAs in the case of the elevator, it\u2019s possible to prevent an assault. In addition to the standard rule of not getting into a car with strangers, you can pointedly tell someone on the phone (or at least write down) the car\u2019s number, color, and destination for your driver to see and hear. If an assault still happens, aim for vulnerable areas: groin, nose, and eyes.\n
