1/ This is an anecdote that describes seeing & riding a punch in boxing. When a boxer sees the hit coming, they are trained to brace for it appropriately. They ride the hit @NHL #tbi realclearscience.com/blog/2014/01/t…
2/ So take the 2 anecdotes I just posted together. If you don’t see the hit, you’re at greater risk for injury. If you are able to see the hit and are conditioned to take hits safely, you are less likely to get injured. This is a corner stone to what @clarkjf is trying to do.
3/ Improve vision and processing to react faster/better and body/brain/neck strength and conditioning to take hits safely. I’m sure you know that if you deliver a hit, your body is ready for it and puts energy into the other person’s body. If you know you’re going to be hit you..
4/ can yield & absorb energy or turn it around & deliver some too. Either way u are better off from a risk of injury perspective. U need vision & conditioning either way too. But if u don’t see it & or don’t have the time & conditioning to absorb the energy u r at risk of injury
