Download or read book Survive the Unthinkable written by Tim Larkin and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately 1.9 million women are physically assaulted annually in the United States alone. In Survive the Unthinkable, Tim Larkin empowers women to understand that surviving a potential attack isn’t about being physically bigger, faster, or stronger; it’s about knowing how to self-protect, not self-defend. Survive the Unthinkable reveals the effective, proven principles behind Target Focus Training, the system Larkin has used to train Navy SEALs, celebrities, and soccer moms. It’s a counter-intuitive mind / body approach women can use to protect themselves and their loved ones. Readers learn how to identify the difference between social aggression (which can be avoided) and asocial violence (which is unavoidable), recognize personal behaviors that may jeopardize safety, and target highly specific areas on an attacker’s body for a strategic counterattack. Larkin discusses how predators think and teaches women how to spot them, outsmart them, and stop them in their tracks. With principles proven to work regardless of size, strength, or athleticism, Larkin’s approach revolutionizes women’s perspective on violence and self-protection. Armed with the tools to neutralize any threat, readers will blast through the victim mindset and live freer, safer, more peaceful lives.

Download or read book A Girl s Guide to Self Defense written by Paul Gillel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why write a book on 'Girls guide to Self defense'? Primarily because I'm a guy and it makes me angry to constantly read about guys attacking girls, usually for sex, but often it is just a dominance issue. Evidently, man is the stronger more aggressive gender and women are perceived as the weaker gender. As a general rule those stereotypes are correct. It has often passed through my thought process that strength is not the main issue when it comes to self defence. It's a lack of knowledge and confidence that makes the female cower and become passive when they are attacked by a perceived stronger male. This book is designed to give the reader some knowledge and confidence for when the invasion/attack occurs. It also shows that lack of physical strength need not be the deciding factor.
