It is imperative that we get the concept that the first strike is the most important strike after all negotiations have been exhausted in the face of a street confrontation. Now comes the question, should you always look to execute the preferred or the favorite first strike, or should you execute whatever first strike that is available and that you see that would be effective in that particular situation?

There are 4 reasons why you should always execute the most available and the most effective first strike rather the preferred first strike.

The 4 Reasons To Attack The First Vital Area Versus Your Favorite First Strike

Reason # 1 - Street Fighting Is Dynamic And You Can't Always Predict In What Position The Opponent Will Be - Depending on whatever the angle and position of your attacker, you may have to use alternative preferred first strikes that will be as equally as devastating and that will enable you to put momentum on your side in order to be able to finish off the attack and end the threat.

Reason # 2 - There Should Never Be Any ONE Preferred First Strike Technique - You should have at least 3 or 4 multiple variations of effective preferred first strikes. Many of the expert street fighting instructors that I know of utilize - foot stomps, throat strikes, eye jabs and even throwing liquid and objects like dirt and sand into the eyes as the first strike.

Reason # 3 - Your Distance And Your Environment Will Determine What The First Strike Will Be - If you are in a corner with your back to the wall, and an assailant has approached you and is in your face, then the most obvious first strike in this situation would be a sudden and ferocious head butt to the bridge of his nose with the hardest part of your forehead, the part where your forehead meets your hairline, which will cause your attacker's eyes to water thus mess up his vision.

Reason # 4 - Street Fighting Is ALWAYS About Implementing That Which Is Most Obvious And Logical For That Particular Situation - This means, you must always execute that which is available and will be most effective. It may include your favorite first strike or it may not, but you must always adapt yourself to what's before you in order to make your first strike the most effective and the most devastating.

So, these are the reasons why you should always execute the available first strike rather than waiting for the opening to apply your favorite technique.
