When you are close to your opponent, you can do knee charge. This is very useful for self-defense. There are things that you have no control. Out of nowhere, someone attacks you. Before understanding anything, the attacker punches you. He is not going to stop after punching you. He will attack you more and take your money if he intends to rob you.
To punch you, the attacker is already in a punching range. You do not have to do anything. He is already there. You can defend the punch and do knee charge.
You attack the attacker in a certain way, and it is not that you plan to attack him like that. It just happens. If you learn the basics of knee charge, you can counter-attack and protect yourself from being robbed.
If the attacker attacks you with a baseball bat, you get in to defend that. As soon as he is about to swing the bat, you stop his hands. Now what would you do? You can do elbow strike and knee charge. You are in a close range. You can grab the back of the attacker's head, pull him, and do knee charge.
You can do knee charge to the thigh from outside. You can also hit the inner thigh. You should practice the basics of knee charge first. I'm going to share a video about knee charge at the end of this post. To do knee charge, you need to understand the distance.
Since you know that knee charge is very effective for self-defense, should you get close to the attacker directly and do knee charge? When you are in a kicking range, your opponent can kick, or you can expect your opponent to punch you when you are in a punching rage. In a fight, when you get close to your opponent, you use knee charge. How you want to deal with the situation, it is up to you.
You can use a kick bag to practice knee charge. Later, you can ask your training partner to attack you, you defend that attack and do knee charge. You will have a clear idea of how to do knee charge in combat. Let's watch this video. All video credit goes to Master Wong.
