Hi
I used to live in a place like that so I know what you mean My advice would be that you find some martial arts classes for self defense Kung fu is the best not just for self defense it hepls you a lot in self control,, and never let anyone push you around.

I think violent is great physically and Mentally too...
Boxing, or Kick-boxing.
I've been playing Boxing (and took some Kick-boxing classes) for 6 years now, and trust me, I got build great and no girl from the streets ever got across me.
Because Boxing isn't just for strength, it's smart too, For example =
If a girl that weights 20 kilos more than you strength wise, and she punished you (Not in a smart way because she doesn't know boxing) and you punished her back, you can knock her out, and nothing happens to you.
And you can also prevent her punish to getting to you, like you can punish someone and when they try to punish you back, you won't let them with couple tricks you'd learn.
Good Luck

its simple go work out at the gym or go do a sport boxing will be good for self defense or kick boxing because it works everything out

In fighting, it is all about heart. You should still work out, (swimming is still the best workout I know) but if you are truly not looking for trouble and someone puts you in a position where you have to defend yourself, remember this...Getting beaten up doesn't really hurt so bad, the worst thing is usually the bruised ego, but you have really won the fight if some bully starts to beat you up and all of a sudden you put up a legendary fight (no matter how clumsy you may look). Everyone will walk away like, "Damn, that girl has heart." You just keep fighting untill you make that bitch want to stop. Good Luck. Don't leave it all up to luck, though. Practice throwing a good punch.

I Kickbox. I didn't learn it for violence, but I learned it for self defense, releasing of negative energy and for discipline. I also gained self control for doing it. It helps build upper and lower strengths. I encourage you to try it out and check into it.

Aerobics are the best way to get started. This gets all the muscles working together. It will also give you good endurance so if you get into a situation that is bad you can outrun someone. If you feel you are in that much danger the best advice I can give is to take boxing lessons. There's nothing like a good jab in the eye to get someones attention. If the eye doesn't stop them a knee to the groin or a shot to the solar plexus is good for either sex. I have a website dealing with exercising. It is targeted mainly for overweight people but exercising is important for everyone. Copy and paste this link into your browser.
