LifeFight Segment 026: Team USA vs Cuba with special guests champions Brendan Raymer & Drew Gigax! Cuba has finally decided to open its ports to the US after a long spurt of banning Americans from their country. They highly dislike our “capitalist” ways and the dictator doesn't want us to influence his fellow countrymen! Sooooo… what do WE do as soon as young Castro Jr. decides to unclench his fist, open the ports and allow Americans the opportunity that his father would never allow? WE GO IN AND START A FIGHT! That's right. American kickboxing promoter Chip Post saw this as a great opportunity to celebrate this suggestion with a kickboxing match up of Team USA vs Team Cuba! Cuba accepted the challenge and lined up their best men for the battle. Chip Post then went on a search throughout the U.S. to find the top fighters to represent us. One of his stops was Andre's Academy where he asked for my two champions Brendan Raymer & Drew Gigax. We accepted without hesitation. Of course I knew the position that he United States was in with Cuba, so when I upped Brendan and Drew's training for the fight, I also included survival skills training just in case a war broke out. I educated them on how to make weapons from everyday items; rules on maintaining water & food; how to secure their hotel rooms from invaders and more. Raymer and Gigax would arrive in Cuba prepared to fight inside of the ring and outside of it if necessary. Now if Cuba was going to allow America to “invade” them with their fighters for the 1st historical Team USA vs Team Cuba event, there was no way in the world that Cuba wanted us to walk away with a win. So the dictator, who owns and runs everything in the country from the banks to the carwashes, was sure to find his top fighters to verse Raymer & Gigax. Raymer's opponent was Yosian Garbey, with at record of 13 wins – and 1 loss plus 20lbs on Raymer. Gigax's opponent was Javier Mesa with a record of 29 wins -1 loss and 10 Kos! His Kos equaled the number of fights Drew Gigax had within his young career. On this podcast you will hear the story directly from Raymer and Gigax regarding what occurred in their fights. And I guarantee you that that won't be the most exciting part. During this podcast I could barely get the two to talk about the fight, because they had so much more to tell about their experience within the country. Their experiences of a lack of food and water; hourly weight drops and gains; overheating; dehydration; and more importantly, their moments with the citizens of this country that once banned Americans from ever stepping foot on their soil. There's a great lesson for us all as Americans to learn that can only be taught to you in this podcast by our two American warriors and courageous top fighters who learned more about America while in Cuba, than they did while growing up on U.S. soil. I learned A LOT interviewing them and trust me… you don't want to miss it! You and everyone that you know needs to listen to this educational and inspiring interview because on this interview I'm no longer the only one in your corner… champions Brendan Raymer & Drew Gigax are too! Stay Strong!

LifeFight Segment 025: Why we overeat Just the other day I was explaining to Rebekah how I had eaten so much popcorn, candy, ice cream etc… in one sitting while watching a couple of movies that I made myself sick! I felt like I was about to puke at any moment AND moreover, I WANTED to puke. Now here's the catch… I didn't want to puke so I could feel better… I wanted to puke so I could continue to eat more! Yes, me. Now don't sweat me too much because I'm sure you've probably been there a couple of times yourself. But this almost gluttonous moment in my life helped me to realize a new enemy that we had all better learn to stand up to. And that enemy is called, “Overeating!” This is why I felt it was so important to do this podcast on “Why we overeat.” Overeating is becoming an epidemic in America opposite of other countries whose food epidemics usually stem from starvation or “undereating”. Now of course we know that one of the reasons that we overeat is because our food is easy for us to acquire. We don't have to hunt, grow or harvest anything! It all sits on a shelf just waiting for us to trade slips of paper for it. I personally feel that this process desensitizes us from appreciating a lot of the food that we can easily buy. We take it for granted which can easily lead to our neglect. In this LifeFight segment, “Why we overeat”, I give 7 reasons as to why we can't seem to stop from converting our spoons, and forks into shovels whenever we're around food. I feel that we all need to control our overeating and the first step is to know “why” we do it. Here are some of the reasons. Boredom is a big factor in our overeating. When the mind isn't occupied with tasks it easily steers towards food. Boredom is one of the worse experiences that we encounter as human beings, and we have learned how to battle it with food! No more boring work conventions or weekends at grandmas, because food will be there! So understanding that you may be overeating when you're bored, offers you some insight that could help you to control this behavior. Find something to do when you're bored so your mind doesn't shift to food! Peer pressure from family, friends, co-workers and even bosses can be a big part of your overeating. If you're attending lots of business functions that are always catered heavily with food, this may be your vice. If some of your surrounding buddies are dedicated overeaters, they are going to be sure to always include you in the duty as they overstuff themselves. And definitely beware the baking grandmother or mother who may have you confused with Hansel & Gretel. This can be a hard battle because your family, friends, and possibly even boss could feel insulted when you don't eat the cooking that they put their heart and soul or money into. Visual attraction is another reason “Why we overeat”. Food companies load their products up with food coloring, carnauba wax, a ½ naked woman and anything else that can convince you to want it for any other reason than simply the taste of it. And if you're doubting me I want you to think about how tasty the following items appear: Cupcakes; Jelly Beans; Ice Cream; Birthday Cake; Cotton Candy. Now all of these things are basically the same forms of everyday sugar, but the colors and decorations make us want to gobble them down more than we would if they were just brown or white. Now of course I know that you know that it is my job to do more than just “inform” you of your enemies who make you overeat. I will also educate you on how to defeat them! But you have to listen to the podcast to get that info. But fret not! It's FREE for you to listen! See. You never have to worry because…Now, I'm your corner!

LifeFight Segment 024: Beyond CCW Are YOU ready to be a legal vigilante? Well get your tights and cape out because as of now, it is legal for you to be a superhero in most states in the U.S. How do you get signed up to play the position of Kick Ass in your neighborhood? Surprisingly you may be a citizen who already is signed up and has taken on the duty to kick some criminal booty, and in this segment, Beyond CCW, I'm going to give you tips so you don't end up with your Ass Kicked! As we zip through space and time things around us change. And if we want to keep up and survive among those changes, we had better make some changes ourselves. One of the changes that we're finding ourselves having to make as Americans is within our self-defense. Criminals are getting so bold and savvy that they're manipulating around law enforcement to comment crimes upon the everyday citizen. Carjacking, home invasions, attacking joggers in the park, are all sneaky crimes that have become so hard for law enforcement to stop, that citizens have voted to take the law into their own hands. And the tactic that citizens are using is to arm themselves with guns while away from their homes! Of course it always seems a sensible solution to fight fire with fire when your enemy is burning the crap out of you. For clarification, I personally do agree with arming the 75 year old woman with a .357 who has to walk past the group of gang members in North St. Louis to buy groceries. All citizens should have an equal chance at immediate defense against a criminal, and we all know that most if not all criminals use guns. Sometimes law enforcement can't respond before the criminal does his deed, and none of us feel that our life or the life of a loved one is worth taking the chance to see if the police can make it on time, this time. HOWEVER… even though this has proven to be a sensible solution, there are problems with gun carriers that are beginning to surface. #1: Some gun carriers feel that they aren't receiving enough training with the certification course so they still won't carry their firearm. #2. Criminals are targeting gun carriers and robbing them of their guns. Now you know as well as I do that I could hand you a certificate to carry nunchucks and it wouldn't matter one bit if you have no training with using them. Furthermore, it may be nice that you can swing them around with fancy moves while we're in the safety of the dojo and you aren't under any kind of real attack, but how are you going to respond when there's a serious threat in front of you? You don't know because you've yet to feel the pressure of an attack with that weapon in your hand. In this podcast segment, Beyond CCW, I talk about some of the incidents where legal pistol packing citizens are robbed of the pistol that they're packing by savvy criminals. I also cover the areas where gun carriers are extremely vulnerable to be attacked BECAUSE they are carrying a gun. I will give you tips from my Beyond CCW training course on how to assure that you don't end up on the embarrassing end of having your gun taken from you. There's much to consider in regards to self-defense if you are a gun carrier than just carrying and having the will to shoot. The most important is the action of making an effective draw. There are many things to consider when trying to make an effective draw such as; #1. Where your gun is upon your person. #2. What kind of clothing you have to maneuver through to get to your gun. #3. How close your attacker is to you. #4. What or who is between you and the attacker. That's a small example of some unconsidered things that can get you stuck in the draw during a panicking situation. And this podcast segment, Beyond CCW will cover many more of the angles that you and the certifying course may not have thought of. So be sure to listen to Beyond CCW and encourage any pistol packing friends that you have to listen also, because I'd hate to see your gun carrying intentions to backfire on you. Stay Strong, Jermaine Andre' “Now I'm in your corner.”

In this podcast segment, Beyond CCW, I talk about some of the incidents where legal pistol packing citizens are robbed of the pistol that they’re packing by savvy criminals. I also cover the areas where gun carriers are extremely vulnerable to be attacked BECAUSE they are carrying a gun. I will give you tips from my Beyond CCW training course on how to assure that you don’t end up on the embarrassing end of having your gun taken from you. There’s much to consider in regards to self-defense if you are a gun carrier than just carrying and having the will to shoot. The most important is the action of making an effective draw. There are many things to consider when trying to make an effective draw such as; #1. Where your gun is upon your person. #2. What kind of clothing you have to maneuver through to get to your gun. #3. How close your attacker is to you. #4. What or who is between you and the attacker. That’s a small example of some unconsidered things that can get you stuck in the draw during a panicking situation. And this podcast segment, Beyond CCW will cover many more of the angles that you and the certifying course may not have thought of. So be sure to listen to Beyond CCW and encourage any pistol packing friends that you have to listen also, because I’d hate to see your gun carrying intentions to backfire on you. Stay Strong, Jermaine Andre’ “Now I’m in your corner.”

LifeFight Segment 024: Beyond CCW Are YOU ready to be a legal vigilante? Well get your tights and cape out because as of now, it is legal for you to be a superhero in most states in the U.S. How do you get signed up to play the position of Kick Ass in your neighborhood? Surprisingly you may be a citizen who already is signed up and has taken on the duty to kick some criminal booty, and in this segment, Beyond CCW, I’m going to give you tips so you don’t end up with your Ass Kicked! As we zip through space and time things around us change. And if we want to keep up and survive among those changes, we had better make some changes ourselves. One of the changes that we’re finding ourselves having to make as Americans is within our self-defense. Criminals are getting so bold and savvy that they’re manipulating around law enforcement to comment crimes upon the everyday citizen. Carjacking, home invasions, attacking joggers in the park, are all sneaky crimes that have become so hard for law enforcement to stop, that citizens have voted to take the law into their own hands. And the tactic that citizens are using is to arm themselves with guns while away from their homes! Of course it always seems a sensible solution to fight fire with fire when your enemy is burning the crap out of you. For clarification, I personally do agree with arming the 75 year old woman with a .357 who has to walk past the group of gang members in North St. Louis to buy groceries. All citizens should have an equal chance at immediate defense against a criminal, and we all know that most if not all criminals use guns. Sometimes law enforcement can’t respond before the criminal does his deed, and none of us feel that our life or the life of a loved one is worth taking the chance to see if the police can make it on time, this time. HOWEVER… even though this has proven to be a sensible solution, there are problems with gun carriers that are beginning to surface. #1: Some gun carriers feel that they aren’t receiving enough training with the certification course so they still won’t carry their firearm. #2. Criminals are targeting gun carriers and robbing them of their guns. Now you know as well as I do that I could hand you a certificate to carry nunchucks and it wouldn’t matter one bit if you have no training with using them. Furthermore, it may be nice that you can swing them around with fancy moves while we’re in the safety of the dojo and you aren’t under any kind of real attack, but how are you going to respond when there’s a serious threat in front of you? You don’t know because you’ve yet to feel the pressure of an attack with that weapon in your hand.

LIFEFIGHT Segment #019: Special guest Shawn Stevenson of the Model Health Show On this segment of LifeFight I have Shawn Stevenson sitting in the studio with me to bring you some of the nutrition advice that I don't have the time or experience to give you. Lol! Shawn Stevenson is a bestselling author and creator of The Model Health Show, featured as the #1 Nutrition and Fitness podcast on iTunes. A graduate of The University of Missouri – St. Louis with a background in biology and kinesiology, Shawn went on to be the founder of Advanced Integrative Health Alliance, a successful company that provides Wellness Services for both individuals and organizations worldwide. Shawn is also a dynamic keynote speaker who has spoken for TEDx, universities, and numerous organizations with outstanding review. However, one of the main reasons that I chose to bring Shawn on my show is because he has an amazing story healing himself of an incurable disease through nutrition and fitness. During Shawn's younger years he was a highly accomplishing athlete with plans to take on the world! Everything was working in that direction for him until he learned from a doctor that it was game over for him. He was informed that he had an incurable condition that would leave him handicap, in pain and on medication for the rest of his life. The doctor informed Shawn that there was nothing that he could do about it. It was inevitable. Shawn respectfully took the professional doctor's advice and seized his mission in athletics. He gained bad weight and was quickly converted from Shredded Athlete Shawn to Fluffy Sit Around Shawn. The condition started to take Shawn to a state of depression and self pity. Shawn couldn't believe how this could happen to him at such a young age especially when he was such a healthy and athletically powerful person. And Shawn couldn't believe it so much… that he STOPPED believing it! I'm not going to go any further into the story because I don't want to spoil what occurred next, but I will assure you that you don't want to miss this inspiring story of how Shawn cured himself by going AGAINST the directions of his doctor. The steps that Shawn took can be the same steps that you take to get control of your body when the professional, certified experts tell you that you can't do a damn thing about it! I reminded Shawn of how 80% of the food that is sold to us is loaded with sugar and that sugar has been clinically proven to be 3x more addictive than heroin. I then informed Shawn that I love sugar just as most Americans do. And after throwing my own dirty laundry out in the street right in front of Shawn and my strong listeners, I assured that there was also NO way that Shawn to escape the studio without giving ME and my listeners some tips on how to break the sugar habit. Shawn gave exceptional tips on how to snap through this addiction that is advertised and programmed into our American brains all day long. One tip was to be sure to find a replacement for the sugar when you take it out of your eating habits. A great replacement that he named was sweet potato! So enjoy listening to The Model Health Show's Shawn Stevenson as we chop up some nutrition plans to help everyone not only get a little healthier, but to possibly even cure something that the experts are telling you is incurable! Thanks for always being a strong listener and please feel more than free to load me up with your reviews! Your reviews feed the needs of myself and my co-host Rebekah Beck.

LifeFight Segment 018: Youth Attacking Back in School Hello. I hope all is well for you. I'd like to congratulate you on your endurance to keep in stride with me on the past LifeFight Segments. There's been some very intense segments and some funny ones. A lot of life lessons have been taught and I'm sure some questions and thoughts have surfaced in your mind. And the best part of all of this is that we haven't even begun! In this LifeFight Segment, Youth Attacking Back in School we discuss whether kids should or shouldn't be allowed to fight back when attacked. But before we get into that conversation we discuss Rebekah's mysterious 2 week disappearance and how it happened. Rebekah is back in the studio with healthy and ready to blame everything on me. Lol! Of course we all know that we can cause serious harm to our bodies by over eating and not working out. But did you know that you can also cause serious harm to your body by not eating enough and working out too much!? This is what happened to Rebekah. She put herself on a cut and ate small meals while doubling her workouts. This didn't fare well and it even lead to the dehydration and malnourishment of her body. In the beginning of this segment we'll discuss how this occurred and how you can avoid this from happening to you. With regard to Youth Attacking Back in School, I'm sure you're more than excited to hear my daughter Kaitlyn's thoughts on this topic, and of course I have her in studio with me. My having her in studio with me also keeps me in check because I can't tell you to do something with your kid that I wouldn't do with mine. We all know that the word among the administration in junior and high school is that if a bully attacks you, don't fight back! Well, what do you think I tell my daughter Kaitlyn to do if a bully attacks her? You will surely learn in this podcast. Serious, permanent damage can be done during a bullying attack and this is one of the reasons that I am not a fan of a child allowing another aggressive child to just pound on them until adult help hopefully arrives. Teeth can be lost, bones can be broken and even serious brain trauma can occur to a person who isn't fighting back when brutally attacked. So the protocol of “not fighting back” in school brings up the concern of serious injury to the child who didn't initiate the attack and may be innocent. I ask you… Is this the American way to lay back and accept an attack while hoping that someone may aid you? Is this a direct violation of civil rights to tell a child that he will lose his schooling if he defends himself? Many of us older folks know that when an everyday kid finally puts a smack down on the neighborhood bully, it shuts down that bully. I tell a story on this Youth Attacking Back in School podcast about my fourth grade experience in school with a bully, and how what I did to him not only shut down him as a bully, it shut down his bigger older brothers. This was always an effective way for youth to deal with bullying 20 years ago. But now with the “NO FIGHT BACK” clause in schools, this neighborhood remedy has been eliminated. You may know that I am no stranger to the hallways of at-risk schools and children. I spend my time in these types of schools teaching calmness and self-control to some of the youth through Mixed Martial Arts. This has fortuned me to see things from the administration and teacher's perspective also. Believe it or not, the teachers who work in schools that have bullying concerns deal with a high level of stress every second. AND through my experience in the halls with the fights, and the young mobs, I have learned the sensible reason why teachers, principals and school administrators must have a policy that DOES NOT allow youth to “fight back!” or things will get worse for everyone! It appears that youth today are in a predicament while at school that many times allows them only 2 choices. They can be on the bully's side as he picks on his victim, or they can be one of the victims getting picked on. Of course I do not plan to leave youth in this horrible position in the place where they are going to learn how to survive in this world, and I come up with some effective remedies that youth can use to shut down a bully... even an aggressive attacking one! And the administration can't label their defense as “fighting back”. Please enjoy your listen to Youth Attacking Back in School and assure that any youth that you know also get to listen. You will appreciate the questions and answers that we surface in this educational and fun segment. Thanks always for being a strong listener and remember than now… I'm in YOUR CHILD'S corner!

Is this a direct violation of civil rights to tell a child that he will lose his schooling if he defends himself?Many of us older folks know that when an everyday kid finally puts a smack down on the neighborhood bully, it shuts down that bully. I tell a story on this Youth Attacking Back in School podcast about my fourth grade experience in school with a bully, and how what I did to him not only shut down him as a bully, it shut down his bigger older brothers. This was always an effective way for youth to deal with bullying 20 years ago. But now with the “NO FIGHT BACK” clause in schools, this neighborhood remedy has been eliminated.You may know that I am no stranger to the hallways of at-risk schools and children. I spend my time in these types of schools teaching calmness and self-control to some of the youth through Mixed Martial Arts. This has fortuned me to see things from the administration and teacher’s perspective also. Believe it or not, the teachers who work in schools that have bullying concerns deal with a high level of stress every second. AND through my experience in the halls with the fights, and the young mobs, I have learned the sensible reason why teachers, principals and school administrators must have a policy that DOES NOT allow youth to “fight back!” or things will get worse for everyone!It appears that youth today are in a predicament while at school that many times allows them only 2 choices. They can be on the bully’s side as he picks on his victim, or they can be one of the victims getting picked on. Of course I do not plan to leave youth in this horrible position in the place where they are going to learn how to survive in this world, and I come up with some effective remedies that youth can use to shut down a bully... even an aggressive attacking one! And the administration can’t label their defense as “fighting back”.Please enjoy your listen to Youth Attacking Back in School and assure that any youth that you know also get to listen. You will appreciate the questions and answers that we surface in this educational and fun segment. Thanks always for being a strong listener and remember than now… I’m in YOUR CHILD’S corner!Jermaine Andre’
LifeFight Segment 018: Youth Attacking Back in School Hello. I hope all is well for you. I’d like to congratulate you on your endurance to keep in stride with me on the past LifeFight Segments. There’s been some very intense segments and some funny ones. A lot of life lessons have been taught and I’m sure some questions and thoughts have surfaced in your mind. And the best part of all of this is that we haven’t even begun! In this LifeFight Segment, Youth Attacking Back in School we discuss whether kids should or shouldn’t be allowed to fight back when attacked. But before we get into that conversation we discuss Rebekah’s mysterious 2 week disappearance and how it happened. Rebekah is back in the studio with healthy and ready to blame everything on me. Lol! Of course we all know that we can cause serious harm to our bodies by over eating and not working out. But did you know that you can also cause serious harm to your body by not eating enough and working out too much!? This is what happened to Rebekah. She put herself on a cut and ate small meals while doubling her workouts. This didn’t fare well and it even lead to the dehydration and malnourishment of her body. In the beginning of this segment we’ll discuss how this occurred and how you can avoid this from happening to you. With regard to Youth Attacking Back in School, I’m sure you’re more than excited to hear my daughter Kaitlyn’s thoughts on this topic, and of course I have her in studio with me. My having her in studio with me also keeps me in check because I can’t tell you to do something with your kid that I wouldn’t do with mine. We all know that the word among the administration in junior and high school is that if a bully attacks you, don’t fight back! Well, what do you think I tell my daughter Kaitlyn to do if a bully attacks her? You will surely learn in this podcast. Serious, permanent damage can be done during a bullying attack and this is one of the reasons that I am not a fan of a child allowing another aggressive child to just pound on them until adult help hopefully arrives. Teeth can be lost, bones can be broken and even serious brain trauma can occur to a person who isn’t fighting back when brutally attacked. So the protocol of “not fighting back” in school brings up the concern of serious injury to the child who didn’t initiate the attack and may be innocent. I ask you… Is this the American way to lay back and accept an attack while hoping that someone may aid you? Is this a direct violation of civil rights to tell a child that he will lose his schooling if he defends himself? Many of us older folks know that when an everyday kid finally puts a smack down on the neighborhood bully, it shuts down that bully. I tell a story on this Youth Attacking Back in School podcast about my fourth grade experience in school with a bully, and how what I did to him not only shut down him as a bully, it shut down his bigger older brothers.

This has fortuned me to see things from the administration and teacher’s perspective also.

LifeFight Segment 15: Employing Your HatersHaters! We hear about them daily. We probably even talk about them daily. And whether we admit to it or not, a Hater can have a powerful effect on how others view us, and sometimes even on how we view ourselves. We must be careful in our dealings with our Haters or they can suck us right into their game, while using our energy to turn themselves into the star that we may be trying to be! And this is exactly why I am going to teach you in this LifeFight segment of Employing Your Haters, not only how to keep your Haters from bringing harm to you, but also how to employ them and their actions in your favor.Of course there are many who may “think” they have a true Hater or even falsely claim that they have Haters to try and boost their importance amongst others. It must be clarified that for us to have a Hater we must have truly accomplished something of value. The actions of arrogance and/or rudeness which could lead to the immediate disliking of us as a person, does not define those who hate our guts because we are a jerk or suck, as a true Hater. A Hater is driven by a heart of jealousy against one who is doing well without the fallout of harming others to reach his or her goals.WHO can be a Hater can be complex in this modern world for many reasons. One of the potential Haters that I uncover in this LifeFight segment of “Employing Your haters” is the old friend or family member who transforms into a Hater upon your success. This proves that we must always be prepared to run constant scans on those who surround us as we climb to the top. It can sometimes be possible that one of our closest associates hasn’t gotten infected with Haterism.So what are some ways to put your Haters to work for you? I will reveal a couple of tactics in this letter and then you HAVE to listen to the rest of the podcast to get your magazine fully loaded with ammo.One of the prestige jobs that your Hater does for you is to motivate you. When you hear someone speaking against you and trying to convince others of how “bad” you are, you need to use this as fuel to prove how good and powerful you are. Appreciate their challenge and use the anger that they create as energy to stop slacking off and to get out there and make their word garbage! With this energy you will win in more than one way in the end.Another prestige, unpaid job that the Hater does for you is running a free evaluation on your performance, and pointing out all that is wrong with you. Listen to our Haters’ complaints and look into what he or she is saying. Is there truth to it? Do you honestly agree? If so, you have them to thank for aiding you in correcting something that the important people in your mission may have soon recognized. I personally can remember many things as a fighter that my Haters pointed out about me. I listened to their every word and gave myself an honest check over. There were times that they were correct so I fixed the problem without ever having to issue a payment to anyone!Haters also help to boost your popularity by talking about you even if it’s bad. There’s an old show biz saying that says, “The only bad exposure is no exposure.” I have personally found this to be true and I reveal how in the podcast, “Employing your Haters”. Haters are working for free overtime to get people to know who you are for their claimed bad reason. And in America today we know that a bad boy, or bad girl reputation will most likely get you farther than not. So please enjoy this podcast on Employing Your Haters . It will be an educational and fun listen for you. You won’t view a Hater the same after hearing this. And neither will you ever fear another Hater because now… I’m in your corner.Jermaine Andre’

LifeFight Segment 14: Attack Back Shock Training! Good Day! Have you seized your chance yet to guide a LifeFight topic? Well if you haven't, you're missing out! You can influence our topics through reviews on I-tunes or on my Facebook page, “Jermaine Andre'.” Many have already taken this step by sending in reviews, and even requests on what they would like Rebekah and I to speak on. Don't miss your chance to guide the direction of a LifeFight podcast with the simple click of a few computer keys! In the beginning of Lifefight Segment, “Attack Back Shock Training”, I elaborate on the selected chapter, “The Annoying Co-worker” from my book, “Dealing Effectively With Idiots”. It seems that many of my Facebook friends have people at work who they don't want to be associated with. Well I'm sure to give some awesome and even extreme strategies on how you can dodge the annoying co-worker if you have one. One of the strategies that I give is to always pretend to be on the phone when he or she approaches you. I even give away a secret tactic on how to make your annoying co-worker dodge you! You won't believe these hilarious and effective techniques but keep in mind that it is my job to give you EFFECTIVE techniques that are waaaaaaaaaay outside the norm! Even my co-host Rebekah shook her head at my mad, but sensible, methods! Getting back on a more serious note, it has taken many years of experience, testing and even teaching to finally come up with a self-defense formula that fits today's citizen under today's conditions against today's attacker. Most if not all former martial art styles were created during ancient times for people during ancient times against criminals who used ancient techniques. This is why I felt the need to come up with something that would be more applicable for people today and I've finally created an effective, easy to learn training program that I trust can aid the modern individual in defending his or herself. From my martial arts experience I noticed that the biggest concern with modern day people learning to defend themselves was the lack of time. Very few could commit the time that was necessary to study an ancient martial art and become effective with it. So the first thing that I had to assure to do with Attack Back Self-Defense Program, was to design it so the modern person could attend it without disrupting their everyday prior commitments. Attack Back Self-Defense Program has 3 phases and 9 classes. Three (3) classes in each phase. Class 1 of Phase 1 is Awareness & Grab Escapes. Before I teach you how to defend yourself I feel that it is important to teach you how to not have to defend yourself. Awareness can arm you with the sensory system to never end up in a position where you will have to defend yourself. Grab Escapes are also a pre-requisite because they offer you the power to free yourself and escape without having to hurt someone. It's very important that you are armed with non-deadly force if I am going to arm you with lethal weapons for life and death situations. Blocking is also included within the classes of the formula. Blocking is one of the most neglected lessons in the martial arts and self-defense because, it is boring to teach and not very exciting to practice. This is why I make it one of the first things that you must learn. If you don't know how to block, you will automatically panic as soon an attacker raises a finger at you. This panic will force you to slam your eyes shut and possibly even turn your back towards your attacker. This won't be good. Of course you have to know how to unload with strikes and hits on an attacker who is trying to take you down, and I have discovered that Palm Strikes, Eye Flicks, Ear Claps and other non-sporting martial arts techniques are the best for the everyday person to use for self-defense. Attack Back Self-Defense Program arms you with lethal hand to hand techniques that you should assure you are always ready to fire if needed. Striking allows you distance and impact that can knock your attacker; send him to the ground and/or knock him unconscious. Strikes also offer you the choice of escaping after Attacking Back if necessary. An occurrence that can make you immediately fail in a self-defense situation is the shock that the brain goes into when an attack happens. This is where most self-defense fails. When the brain enters a state that is new to it there is always the possibility of the mind and body “freezing”. This causes the victim to forget everything that he or she may have learned while waiting in fear to see what the attacker is going to do next. Of course this is not good and Attack Back keeps this in mind and this is why I have devised a process in Attack Back Self-Defense Program that takes the brain into the room of shock so it becomes familiar with it. This training tactic of Attack Back is so intense that it put Rebekah into tears of intensity when she experienced it. So enjoy listening to Attack Back Shock and learn some things about what you should expect and develop in your self-defense training. And if you feel that you're up to it, get signed up with Attack Back to experience the real deal and get armed for today's streets. Thanks for listening and be sure to hit us with reviews so we will know how we're affecting your daily life if at all. Take care and remember that now I'm in your corner!

Attack Back Self-Defense Program has 3 phases and 9 classes. Three (3) classes in each phase. Class 1 of Phase 1 is Awareness & Grab Escapes. Before I teach you how to defend yourself I feel that it is important to teach you how to not have to defend yourself. Awareness can arm you with the sensory system to never end up in a position where you will have to defend yourself. Grab Escapes are also a pre-requisite because they offer you the power to free yourself and escape without having to hurt someone. It’s very important that you are armed with non-deadly force if I am going to arm you with lethal weapons for life and death situations. Blocking is also included within the classes of the formula. Blocking is one of the most neglected lessons in the martial arts and self-defense because, it is boring to teach and not very exciting to practice. This is why I make it one of the first things that you must learn. If you don’t know how to block, you will automatically panic as soon an attacker raises a finger at you. This panic will force you to slam your eyes shut and possibly even turn your back towards your attacker. This won’t be good.Of course you have to know how to unload with strikes and hits on an attacker who is trying to take you down, and I have discovered that Palm Strikes, Eye Flicks, Ear Claps and other non-sporting martial arts techniques are the best for the everyday person to use for self-defense. Attack Back Self-Defense Program arms you with lethal hand to hand techniques that you should assure you are always ready to fire if needed. Striking allows you distance and impact that can knock your attacker; send him to the ground and/or knock him unconscious. Strikes also offer you the choice of escaping after Attacking Back if necessary. An occurrence that can make you immediately fail in a self-defense situation is the shock that the brain goes into when an attack happens. This is where most self-defense fails. When the brain enters a state that is new to it there is always the possibility of the mind and body “freezing”. This causes the victim to forget everything that he or she may have learned while waiting in fear to see what the attacker is going to do next. Of course this is not good and Attack Back keeps this in mind and this is why I have devised a process in Attack Back Self-Defense Program that takes the brain into the room of shock so it becomes familiar with it. This training tactic of Attack Back is so intense that it put Rebekah into tears of intensity when she experienced it. So enjoy listening to Attack Back Shock and learn some things about what you should expect and develop in your self-defense training. And if you feel that you’re up to it, get signed up with Attack Back to experience the real deal and get armed for today’s streets.

LifeFight Segment 14: Attack Back Shock Training! Good Day! Have you seized your chance yet to guide a LifeFight topic? Well if you haven’t, you’re missing out! You can influence our topics through reviews on I-tunes or on my Facebook page, “Jermaine Andre’.” Many have already taken this step by sending in reviews, and even requests on what they would like Rebekah and I to speak on. Don’t miss your chance to guide the direction of a LifeFight podcast with the simple click of a few computer keys! In the beginning of Lifefight Segment, “Attack Back Shock Training”, I elaborate on the selected chapter, “The Annoying Co-worker” from my book, “Dealing Effectively With Idiots”. It seems that many of my Facebook friends have people at work who they don’t want to be associated with. Well I’m sure to give some awesome and even extreme strategies on how you can dodge the annoying co-worker if you have one. One of the strategies that I give is to always pretend to be on the phone when he or she approaches you. I even give away a secret tactic on how to make your annoying co-worker dodge you! You won’t believe these hilarious and effective techniques but keep in mind that it is my job to give you EFFECTIVE techniques that are waaaaaaaaaay outside the norm! Even my co-host Rebekah shook her head at my mad, but sensible, methods! Getting back on a more serious note, it has taken many years of experience, testing and even teaching to finally come up with a self-defense formula that fits today’s citizen under today’s conditions against today’s attacker. Most if not all former martial art styles were created during ancient times for people during ancient times against criminals who used ancient techniques. This is why I felt the need to come up with something that would be more applicable for people today and I’ve finally created an effective, easy to learn training program that I trust can aid the modern individual in defending his or herself. From my martial arts experience I noticed that the biggest concern with modern day people learning to defend themselves was the lack of time. Very few could commit the time that was necessary to study an ancient martial art and become effective with it. So the first thing that I had to assure to do with Attack Back Self-Defense Program, was to design it so the modern person could attend it without disrupting their everyday prior commitments.
