macdobhran: Whoop Ass (Worst Case)
How to Take a Punch in the Stomach
_____________________________________________




  1. Tighten your stomach muscles.
    A body blow to the gut (solar plexus) can damage organs and kill.

  2. Do not suck in your stomach.
    Doing so increases the risk of internal injury.

  3. Shift slightly so that the blow hits your side, but do not flinch or move away from the punch.
    Moving away only gives the punch more momentum. Try to absorb the blow with your obliques, the set of muscles on the side that wraps around your ribs.
