Archery and Children - What to Look for in Archery Products

Archery is not just for adults. It is a sport that almost anyone can become involved in and it is increasingly becoming more popular with children. For children, the benefits are endless.

Archery is physically demanding and a good source of exercise. Your child will develop a strong upper-body as an archer. Not only does archery promote strength, it also improves focus and hand-eye coordination. As this is a sport that can be done indoors or outdoors, there is never a bad day for archery. It is a sport that can be played year round and in any weather condition.

There are several things to consider before you purchase archery products for your child. It is essential to make sure that your child has a genuine interest in the sport before you waste money buying equipment that will just sit and collect dust.

Before shopping for archery equipment, keep the overall experience of your child in mind. While you should purchase good quality archery equipment, it does not mean you have to go broke buying the most expensive equipment. If new to archery, the best way to start is by purchasing mid-range priced bow and arrows that will last a few years before you have to upgrade.

The items that you will need to purchase include a bow, arrows and a target. Important to note is that when buying archery equipment, be sure the correct equipment for your child's size and experience is considered. Some children might not be strong enough to draw the bow and shoot safely. There are some bows that allow adjustments to fit a child as they grow.

A quiver, which is a container that holds the arrows, should be purchased. For protective gear your child should have an arm guard, which will keep the bow string from hitting the forearm, and a tab, used to protect the fingers when drawing the bow. All protective gear should be sized properly to fit the child.

Children new to the sport should receive proper training. Proper training means proper technique and an overall better and safer understanding of the sport. Children must know that bows and arrows can be lethal if used incorrectly. Supervision is critical. The fact that archery can be a dangerous sport teaches children safety and responsibility.

By allowing our children to learn and participate in the sport of archery, we are instilling responsibility, discipline, a sense of self worth and patience at a young age. Archery is also a wonderful social outlet for our children, where they can learn the benefits of competitiveness as well as team work. These are attributes that will stay with them and help them as they grow into adulthood.

Side Kick Defense Keeping the guard up

In the Martial Science we teach defenses to teach body movement and not specifically to defend against a unique attack (though it is possible). We name the files so people might be able to find them easier. Mainly this is for our students and those that have already read the Philosophy and System book. The side kick defense is applied by falling over the kick and striking with the forearm bone (ulna) onto the calf. Regardless of what side-kick is thrown, if the kick is committed to make contact, then the drill can be performed. Again, we are teaching the movements and not specifically the technique of defending against a side kick which is a small part of the drill and possible. I realize this is hard to understand, but an important concept to know when trying to grasp the way we train and why. Yes, practice drills do change. However, we have this in reverse. Students are learning to move as opposed to learning to defend against a specific attack. We use the attack as a way to train the movements. In a realistic self-defense situation, you will have to move according to the situation at hand - you must adapt. This is easier to do when you have solid control of your own body movement and used to manipulating opponents. Most likely you would end up in a situation that required one part of the technique and thus you could apply that one move or a combination from various drills. This is to say that you might perform a physical move from a punch defense as well as one from a ...

How to Use Everyday Objects For Self Defense

You might be surprised at all of the everyday objects that could save your life in a self defense situation. While it's fine to carry mace or a taser in most states, it's still best to know what you can do to keep yourself safe if you find yourself without a standard weapon nearby. In this article I've got a list of three ordinary objects that you might carry on any given day that can do serious damage in street fight and help you stay safe.

1. Walking Stick / Umbrella - Whether long and slender or short and compact, an umbrella or a cane can come in very handy in a street fight. A cane is obviously a good choice for fending off knife attacks and wielding like a club. They tend to be hard and solid enough to take a good swing with. Umbrellas, on the other hand, aren't well suited for bludgeoning but are perfect for striking nerve points. Even a cheap, compact umbrella can do a lot of good when slammed against the inside bone of an attackers forearm and wrist, or into the nerve cluster at the ears. Cheap umbrellas may not seem like much, but any weapon can help give you an edge and sometimes a slight edge is all it takes.


2. Wallet - This one surprises most people. A man's folding wallet is actually a great weapon for close quarters fighting. The reason is that they are usually reinforced with credit cards that make the wallets very rigid. To use properly, just place the open end of the wallet deep into the palm of your hand and use it to thrust the hard edge at your attacker. It's best used against the throat to apply pressure to the Adam's apple or as a strike to the bridge of the nose. Go ahead, take out your wallet and play with it, you might be surprised what you can do with it.


3. Car Keys - It's so easy to forget sometimes that most of us keep a set of jagged, pointy metal spikes in our pockets. Should you find yourself in a position to grab for your keys in a fight, don't hesitate. Grab the heaviest, longest key you have and grip it tightly between your thumb and forefinger. Slice if you must, but a well placed jab to the eyes, face or throat can end a fight very quickly.

Top 5 Submissions Every MMA Fighter Must Know

Ever since the beginning of MMA, submissions have been a centerpiece of the sport. Although some submissions are simpler than other, all of them can be effective when executed correctly. Here are the top five submissions that every MMA fighter need to know to be an efficient fighter.

1. Triangle Choke

One of most sufficient chokes in the sport, the triangle choke is easily the number one submission. While in the guard position, the fighter traps his opponent's arm and pulls it forward. From there, the fighter puts his leg opposite to the isolated arm behind the opponent's head and locks the legs together. Once the legs are locked, the opponent is trapped, and the fighter in guard applies pressure until his opponent either taps out or loses consciousness. While the triangle choke has been around since the early days of MMA, it's defense is taught very early into a fighter's career, so not being able to defend this move at the professional level is somewhat embarrassing. However, the triangle choke can a very sufficient submission when executed correctly even against the most experienced fighter. For instance, Fedor Emelianenko recently lost what most people consider his first ever career loss this past year to Frabricio Werdum in a triangle choke.

2. Rear Naked Choke

This choke is one of the most deadly when executed correctly. Often on his back and with his opponent facing away from him, the fighter will wrap one arm around his opponent's neck with his forearm pushing against one side of the neck and his bicep against the other side of the neck. The fighter's other arm will push against the back of his opponent's head and apply hooks to the opponent's flanks. The fighter then expands his chest until the opponent taps out or is forced to go unconscious. Unlike some choke holds that put pressure on a fighter's windpipe, this choke pinches the carotid arteries, which supply oxygen and blood to the head, making it one of the quickest and most dominating chokes in MMA.

3. Guillotine Choke

Although considered one of the most common submissions in MMA, the guillotine choke is very effective against fighters who lower their heads when attacking their opponent. To apply this choke, The fighter slips an arm under the opponent's chin against the throat then grabs the wrist with his free hand and begins pulling upward, cutting into the opponent's throat, cutting off the fighter's windpipe. Because of how versatile it is, the guillotine can be executed from both the standing and guard positions. This choke can also essentially make a fighter's career. For instance, UFC fighter Cody McKenzie has ten consecutive victories by guillotine choke, and although fighters know what he brings to the table, his choke is so sufficient that fighters can't guard it, making it one of the deadliest in the sport.

4. Arm Bar

The arm bar is a common submission lock intended to hyperextend the arm. The fighter will trap and isolate his opponent's arm by pulling it between his own legs. From there, the fighter arches his hips and leans backwards, which puts concentrated pressure on his opponent's elbow and hyper extends the opponent's arm. Ligament damage is common in this submission, along with the ability to break the opponent's arm or elbow when executed to it's fullest.

5. Kimura

This submission move is named after judo great Masahiko Kimura, who used the move to snap MMA legend Helio Gracie's arm in a match in 1955. This move can be applied from either the guard or side-control positions. The fighter in guard will grab his opponent's hand or wrist, open his own guard, and sit up or rotate to the side. The fighter will then reach over his opponent's arm that is being held by the hand, grab his own wrist, and start pushing the prone opponent's arm away from his body, moving it toward his head, causing hyper rotation of shoulder. This causes tremendous pressure on the arm, usually causing ligament damage or a broken arm. One of the most famous kimura submissions of all-time happened in the famous fight between Renzo Gracie and Kazushi Sakuraba in "Pride 10 - Return of the Warriors", where Gracie refused to tap against Sakuraba's kimura, causing him to tear numerous tendons and ligaments and break his arm.

As you can see, submissions that are executed correctly can result in a dominate victory, but can result in serious injury if not defended well. The defense for these submissions are just as important as being able to execute them, and when a fighter is able to execute the submission as well as defend it, it shows that you are serious fighter.
