What To Do When The Attacker Grabs Your Neck From Behind And Lean You Back

You cannot see what's going on behind your back. If there is a mirror or reflection in front of you, you can see behind without moving your head. When the attacker gets close to you, you might hear the sound.

If you are aware of your surroundings, it would be difficult for the attacker to attack you from behind. Still, sometimes you are totally unprepared and suddenly someone grabs your neck from behind and leans you back.

Here two things happen, first, grabbing your neck and second, leaning you back. You can apply different self defense techniques to defend against grabbing the neck from behind, but when you someone leans you back, you cannot apply the technique properly.

So why are you not able to apply your self defense technique?

It is because as soon as someone grabs you and leans you back like this, you will lose your body balance. You cannot even use your strength when you lose balance.

What can you do to defend yourself in this situation?

First of all, get your body balance back. You can move your one leg and turn back. Now you have the balance, so the attacker cannot do much. You can hit the attacker's groin. You can grab his neck and turn him with force.

When you get rid of this, you can strike more to the attacker so that he cannot attack you again. And you should leave that place as soon as possible.

To protect yourself against any attack, the earlier you can respond and make your move, the better. For example, when the attacker is getting close to you, if you realize that and turn. That can be the first defense. If the attacker has already grabbed your neck from behind, make sure that he cannot make you lose your balance.

If you have your body balance, you are in a better position to fight back as a defense. So what would you do if someone attacks you like this? Please feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section.
