be swole and lean
know how to fight - you'll hold yourself better
don't dress like a dandy

Start with the basics -lift, and really learn posture

Mix in some common sense: Be aware of your surroundings.

Travel in groups (this can mean friends, or a just staying in touch with the herd).

Walk with a purpose.

Have your phone handy.

Stay out of grey-area crime/drug situations.

Try not to walk around alone at night. Walk confidently dont look scared. Buzzcut makes anyone looks more scary but it might look shit on you. But it all depends on circumstance. You could be the biggest motherfucker out there but still get jumped by a big group.

It's actually a vicious paradox in terms of looking like a guy not to be fucked with.

Get muscular, tattoos, a Mohawk haircut and a mean death stare... Well you'll do a great job at scaring off the wannabe thugs. Problem, you'll attract the attention of people you should fear.

Don't merely look intimidating, learn to fight, lift and be an emotionally stable but still dangerous guy.

I'd say being past 60 is prime age for being robbed. At 17 your are basically on gear and can easily escape, have smartphone etc. You aren't an easy target at 17.

To look more intimidating you got to lift constantly and do bjj. Take more risks and put yourself in difficult situations and navigate/maneuver your way out.

55 comments in this threat telling OP how to fuck with crazy and dangerous people, and not a single one telling him to get a job, earn some cash and the fuck out of that city before he gets fucking killed. Everyone would rather feed OP’s fantasy instead of giving him advice that could actually save his life.

A Real Red Pill would be to reject the frame and system you are in and move to a place without stabings. However that is Intellectually beyond the capacity of anyone here.

Notice how askTRP respondents instantly fall into the scarciy mentality frame of the beta asking the question. Such is the logic of betas trying to help betas.

Embrace the culture so you dont get stabbed. Make sure you dont look like a g but that you look like u are about

Honestly, I’d move from Londonistan ASAP, it’s a shithole

get lean
grow a beard

- lift (prioritize your neck, traps, and forearms)

American police officers and soldiers are taught two things that convey intimidation without inviting a fight:

I think the very baseline you should start with is building up your body's core. It will change how you stand, and that will change how people see you.

In general, learning the art of surveying people works well.

I'll disagree a bit with the folks in this thread who tell you to learn to fight. More accurately, don't start any type of combat training unless you're willing to engage in a lot of learning. Short training courses tend to teach small pieces of something like judo or krav maga, and I've thrown every guy I've ever seen in my life with that minimal level of training to the ground in seconds.

Minimal training, especially if it instills confidence, will get you killed. The first move in such fights makes it so obvious what's coming next that it's nearly impossible not to kick the slightly-trained guy's ass.

Go to uni in another southern city

maljo24 · 2019-04-07T21:48:43+00:00

Move.

Get a gun and carry it on you

Grow a beard and don't have to buy anything expensive people can rob

Wear a black hoody with the hood on and bummy clothes at night. Nobody will try to rob someone who looks like a vagabond
