How to Take a Punch in a Fight (and in Life)

Whether you're training in the martial arts for sport or self-defense, learning how to take a punch is a crucial skill. Here's an important tip to survive on the mats and off!
►BUY ANDO A PIECE OF PIE: (Thank you!)

SUMMARY:
The basics of taking a punch are pretty simple: Keep your mouth shut, tuck your chin, and roll with the punch.
But what do you do when you can’t roll? What can you do when you get rocked?
Here are two training tips that might help.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a medical professional. Take my advice and practice at your own risk.
Tip #1: When you get hit, focus before you quit.
Time will not stop for you. A bad guy will not stop for you. When you get rocked, you must get your focus back right away. It doesn't matter what you do, but when you take a hit, train yourself to move through the moment, instead of trying to stop it.
No, I’m not telling you to ignore your pain, I’m telling you to control it. When you get rocked, take a breath, protect yourself, and focus.
Tip #2: Give yourself a "trigger word".
Security dogs are trained to attack when they hear a secret code word. You can do the same thing!
Don't get lost in a fog of pain and panic. Clear the clouds as fast as possible by repeating a trigger word in your head.
Maybe you say GO or FIGHT. It doesn't matter. Just pick a word that fires you up. Don't let the voices in your head turn on you!
This is the big lesson on how to take a punch: You can’t control the fight if you can’t control your mind. So, give your mind something to focus on.
Of course, there’s a life lesson here. We all take hits every day. Each hit you take is a chance to strengthen your fighting spirit. No matter what happens out there, when you take a hit, take a breath, make a decision, and follow through.
That’s not just the secret to winning a fight, it’s the secret to winning at life.

[@Kennedy00Louis]

This is like the "It's not about how hard you can hit, but how much you can get hit and still keep moving foward" Rocky Balboa line, but elaborated to a whole new level. This was a great video, very useful, specially the mantra part. I once broke my arm near the wrist while in high school, first ever time I broke a bone, it was awfully painful but I was able to walk normally holding my arm with the wrist all crooked, smiling through the pain saying "I'm fine" while my friends were all "oh shit" and I waited for the ambulance, I like to think that because of that I found out that I'm not a quitter, but we can never know for sure, and honestly that was physical pain, emotional pain can be a whole new story, at the moment of writing this I'm fairly young and I haven't lost anyone dear to me, but the moment will come soon or later most likely for my grandma, I'll be sure to cheer the current moments we can have, and when the time eventually comes the things I learned from this will certainly be helpful to keep going, I wouldn't be who I am if it wasn't for her.

This is a great video. I remember in my old jiu jitsu class, i used to get knead and elbowed in the head A LOT. And for some reason my way of being able to keep going was to start laughing after getting hit😂 it was involuntary but IT WORKED SO WELL! My mates looked at me like i was crazy😂 but they got used to it. I suggest trying it, i think in a real fight that would probably scare the person too.

You’re wired a little differently, but in this case, I’d say that’s a good thing!👍🏼

Most of the time the suggested videos that pop up mean nothing, but this time, your video has been exactly the help I needed. I'm not talking about a physical fight (thankfully I can take care of myself in those) but I'm talking about being continually hit by a large group of assailants emotionally and psychologically and over the weekend I've been very close to being beaten down and spark out. But from this moment on I'm going to apply the techniques you have kindly offered and by God I am going to rise up again and fight like never before. Thank you Sensei Ando Sir. 🙏 I'm liking and subscribing. 👍

I appreciate and respect your mentorship . So well explained. Helped me so I may take the next step. I'm very self motivated . I like to work, meditate Practice my mental and physical being. And in secret I try and always aim for excellence. In everything, I try to put 110 percent. There's no such thing as "if", if stands for I failed. And no such thing as "I can't". Because there's no such thing as you can't do anything ...until you try, and then it's only then up you how hard your willing to really work for what you want. Sorry for elaborating my thoughts here. It just got me thinking. Thank you for your awesome videos.

I came into this video looking for how to take a punch (even though I don't actually fight anywhere) and came out with life advice that I can apply to every aspect of my life. I just discovered that I quit after taking a hit in life or when things don't go my way. Now I know what I must work on for myself to live my life better. Thank you Sensei Ando, truly.

When he said control your pain I remember my dad hitting me with a belt and instead of cowering I looked him in the eye in silence. That surprisingly works. Edit: By work I meant the pain did not register.
