Ignoring is the only thing that ever works in my experience. Let him run at you, kick, punch do whatever and be still as a tree. He will get tired without reaction from you. I have had 4 kids this age do this and with the exception of one kid I had to term because she would hit her head off the floor, ignoring worked within a week.

All children in my opinion had anxiety disorders and one has major sensory avoidant issues.
