PHYSIOKINETIC; SUB-PRINCIPLE: Attack Hubs

Blog Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)

I first heard of attack hubs from Marc MacYoung in his book, “In the Name of Self-Defense,” where he indicates that our main hubs, all humans have them, are the two shoulder joints/areas and the two hip joints/areas. Then he adds in sub-hubs such as the elbows and the knees. If a human moves those four main hubs will telegraph, tells, the movements. 

If a practitioner can train to see and predict movements with the four hubs they can achieve a faster through-put of the OODA loop and thus get a jump on defensive methodologies for self-defense. 

The attack hubs provide the means to telegraph how an attacker is going to attack you. This gives you time to see it then take appropriate non-aggressive actions to receive thus deflect or block the attack. It gives you choices vs. just attacking your attacker before that attacker can attack. The choices are to receive so that you provide yourself time while the attacker is restarting his OODA loop to leave, to avoid and to take actions that are perceived as a good faith attempt to deescalate by avoiding through actions in leaving to safety.
