The 3 Self-Defence Moves That Work at Any Age | Science Explains Why

Most self-defence techniques fail for one reason: they rely on strength, speed, or athleticism. But biology tells a very different story. In this video, we break down the 3 self-defence moves that remain effective at almost any age — using real biomechanics, neuroscience, and human anatomy research. From the palm strike that uses skeletal alignment instead of muscle… to the wrist release that exploits the weakest point in every human grip… to the shocking ear slap technique that disrupts the brain’s balance system itself… These are not “movie fight” techniques. They are movements designed around physics and biology — not power. Inside this video: Why palm strikes age better than punches The hidden weak point in every human grip How the vestibular system controls balance Why some techniques remain effective from age 20 to 70+ The neuroscience behind real-world self-defence This is a scientific breakdown of what actually works when strength is no longer the advantage.
