7 warning signs of an impending attack

Just as it's important to learn hand-to-hand combat skills, it's also important to learn the potential warning signs of an attack. Why? You'll have the ability to asses the situation and prevent conflict all together. How can you determine whether or not someone is a potential threat? One method is by reading body language. Most of our communication is through body language. Below are a list of seven warning signs of a potential attack with a helpful resource.

* The pupils - When someone is in a flight-or-fight mode, adrenaline will rush into the bloodstream which causes the pupils to dilate. If you're approached by a potential threat, watch the pupils. 

* The pulse - When someone's about to become violent or aggressive, blood flow and blood pressure increases. You should notice a pounding pulse in the neck or temple areas. You don't need to worry about them concealing it as it's very difficult for most people to control. 

* The hands - Another huge indicator of a potentially violent person is the hands. When someone is violent, he or she will usually ball the fists. Pointing or making threatening gestures are also other signs. If he or she is armed, he or she will usually hide the hands. Pay close attention to the hands. 

* The mouth - If someone is about to attack, breathing will be heavy and he or she will likely gasp for air. Sometimes the lips will be parsed. 

* The shoulders - If someone is about to attack, the shoulders will give it away. Tight and raised shoulders indicate a potential threat. The person might lean forward a bit. 

* The legs - If someone is a threat, there will usually be a dominant foot forward shoulder-width apart. If the person is armed, he or she may shield the weapon from view. 

* Body tension - If a person is violent; there will usually be tension in several areas such as the neck, jaw, arms, shoulders, etc. Pay close attention to the person's posture.
