evolved defensive mechanism

We all as humans are imbued with defensive or survival mechanisms, i.e. adrenaline dump, fear, etc. Long ago it may have been enough then things evolved so that the human learned various things to enhance or piggy-back those defensive mechanism for survival to coincide with changes in the environment. This is the evolution of defensive mechanisms.

This works if the new information is somewhat easily attached or associated with those inherent instinctual defensive mechanism the human has encoded for survival. This is how is is and always will be and will work as we evolve and progress.

This theory speaks to how we should train to provide enhanced and evolved defensive mechanisms and at no other time in history has this been more difficult and convoluted - simply because of technological advancements and a slow process of human evolving.

Recognizing those physical and mental defensive mechanisms allows us to achieve success in developing more up to the times defenses and protections. It is this simple method that achieves great results as long as the whole is taken into the learning processes, i.e. sense modes, physical characteristics of fight/combat mode, instinctual defense mechanism of humans, the mental defense mechanisms that contribute to success or discord in defense mechanisms, and so on.

The wonderful thing about all this is that these methods, the essence of martial arts, can be used in daily living. Knowledge is power. Putting that knowledge into actions is truly powerful.
