So You Want to Be a Hero. [Friday, Period 5]
"Self defense!" Yang said cheerfully, slapping an inhibitor bracelet of her own on her biological arm as the students arrived. "AKA, 'How to Punch Someone Without Breaking Your Hand!'"
"Unpowered hand-to-hand is tougher than people realize," she continued, rolling her shoulders and started to stretch herself out in preparation. "How do you land a hit without someone just grabbing your arm? How do you know what to do? Or where the best places are on a humanoid body to hit?"
"Are you fast, or strong? Do you even know? How much pain are you willing to cause another person? Even one who wants to hurt you? Sometimes our hearts balk at the idea of causing pain, even during self-defense."
"So today, we're going to start with a very basic workout to get you limbered-up. If you need a spotter because you're not used to a physical work-out, either pair up with a friend or waive me down."
"After that, we're going to go over the very basics: how to throw a punch without hurting yourself. Usual weakpoints for humanoid opponents. Basic self-defense moves."
"For those of you with more experience, you can activate a training dummy to work on a more advanced setting, or ask me to tag in for a spar. Now, let's get ready to rumble!"
