your question reminds me of an Argyll & sutherland Highlander Sgt who although he was not asking about self defence on a woman , asked me this question in a pub what would you do first. I said head butt him as i am fast with my head, he said no spit in his eyes. simple but effective.

also the most simple stuff is the best such as when i asked a similar question to a Wado ryu Sensei, he thrust one finger into my lower throat just above the collar bone and i choked. Itīs very dangerous.

Headbutts won't knockout anyone, just makes them go back. If the attacker has no balls he will stay at a distance figuring out what to do next. If he has them, the head butt will just escalate the situation and you better have a powerfull B plan, because it's going to get dirty.

Still training hard but neglecting the training log. I'm training for local charity type 5K so my concentration on that is taking precedent over lifting right now. The race is in mid July. My goal in this race is to win my age group. Getting better at running has been slow going. Maybe because of health and age my progress has been at a snail's pace but it is going in a positive direction. My cancer levels for blood cancer are low and stabilized for now. My oncologist that had me going for blood tests every month and saw me every month. Last time I  saw him he said he would now see me every six months unless my levels rose or I got sick. I'm 168 and four pounds away from my goal weight.

Maybe I will log what I am doing. Just thought it maybe wouldn't be interesting to those that pursue bodybuilding but might be of small interest to guys that pursue fitness. I'm always interested in what the other guy is doing. It's going to be a sunny hot day. I think I will run 5 miles on the boardwalk. Might see some hotties in bikinis walking. 

RIP

People constantly say creatine has been studied but are they real studies?  So much bull shit with supplements. They aren't regulated.

Just the fact that he had asthma or whatever + his gut blowing out so early in his "career" should have been enough for people to tell him that he wasn't built for the game.

Ok. But would he listen?
