3 Crippling Leg Pressure Points. How to take the legs

Today, we will discuss the Top 3 Crippling Leg Pressure Points for self defense you need to know! There is an old saying, that when in doubt, attack the legs!

But what is the most effective way?

3 Crippling Leg Pressure Points

The bigger, the attacker, the most fragile the legs. Therefore, knowing the Crippling Leg Pressure Points is a must!

Legs do a lot of work, as I am sure you realize. But when someone is BIG, they work beyond what they should. Today, there is an epidemic of obesity in the world. Especially in men.

But that does not stop them from wanting to fight, or be a criminal! And you must understand your attacker, and what his weaknesses are. That is part of the study of the science of pressure point self-defense.

Crippling Leg Pressure Points - Let's Attack the Knees.

This is the usual train of thought in the martial arts. And yes, the knees are a weak area, especially on heavy people.

There is a cluster of 4 pressure points around the knees that make great targets! I discuss these in DEPTH in the Novice Kyusho Jitsu Home Study Course!

But today we will bypass the knees and go for PAIN.

Crippling Leg Pressure Points

Let begin with the first of 3 leg pressure points with GB-31!

1) Gall Bladder 31- This point is located, as you can see on the thigh, midway down on the Yang side. It is hit straight in like an arrow! The knee makes a GREAT weapon against it too! What happens? The leg will CRAMP. If you strike it hard enough when the leg cramps, the quadriceps will cramp so badly they will TEAR.

This pressure point is also often called the Charlie Horse Point. You can read a full article on the pressure point Gall Bladder 31 here.

You cannot walk, let alone continue to fight under these circumstances.

2) Bladder 56 - As you can see from the diagram, this one of the leg pressure points that lies mid-calf.

Striking this point, like GB-31, will cause an INTENSE calf cramp. I accidentally hit this point once too hard on my Uke, and he ended up with a muscle tear. I know you are getting the idea! The best weapon for this is the heal of your foot! If you have heave boots on, you will get an even better result. You can also use BL-57 or BL-58. But I have found BL-56 the most effective.

If you can't walk….you can't fight. The power of Crippling Leg Pressure Points.

3) Spleen 11 - I have talked about SP-11 many times! Located mid upper thigh on the inside, this is perhaps the BEST of all leg points. I know people expect me to go with SP-6, which is a great point! Most of all, it is a setup point.

But today, I want PAIN.

Because of where the point is located, it can cause a neurological knockout if your strike is hard enough. The attack is straight in like an arrow. The knee is a great weapon, and so is a front kick. If you want to know HOW it can cause a knockout, read 5 Best Knockout Pressure Points Here.

There is also an excellent possibly with a hard strike of cracking or breaking the femur bone in the upper leg. As I said before, this ends the altercation. Here is a full article on SP-11 too! As you can see, how important it is to learn the Crippling Leg Pressure Points.

ST-09:

Pressure Point ST-09 is situated right over the carotid sinus. The carotid sinus is a Baroreceptor, whose purpose is to detect an increase in blood pressure. When it detects an increase, it sends a signal to the vasomotor center of the via the vagus nerve. This initiates a Vasodilatation, and slowing of the heart rate to lower the blood pressure to normal.

When struck this pressure points is struck there is an immediate, violent and dangerous response from the brain. The blood pressure will drop quickly causing a "vascular faint" or knockout. This can be accomplished with a low to medium strike.

A harder strike can cause serious damage to the nervous and arterial systems of the area which will result in death. ST-09 is also Dim Mak points because an energy strike to this part of the system, both nervous and vascular, will cause enough "dysfunction" to result in death overtime.

Carotid Sinus Reflex:

The serious martial artist should be concerned about Carotid Sinus Reflex when it comes to this pressure point and ST-10. The effect is temporary loss of consciousness or a knockout that sometimes accompanies convulsive seizures. This is because of the power of the carotid sinus reflex when pressure builds up in one or both carotid sinuses.
