The trouble is, for every attack that you train to protect from, there are at least a half dozen others that don't conform to the program.
My belief, and it's only my belief, is that your attitude and commitment will matter the most. Most people can never train to cover every contingency.
Your mental attitude can carry you through some difficult places.
Be tougher than your attacker.
This stuff I hear about not being overly aggressive towards your attacker and escalating the encounter? BS.
If you're in a fight for your life, your attacker should be thankful they just survive the encounter.
