How to Break Free From a Choke Hold - Elbow down technique

[coolmichael27]

i do muai thai boxing and i have a much more better technique than this

[lillan2]

That technic is just so wrong in so many was...

I am training the self defense technic called Krav Maga and have learned how to get out of an chock hold from the front, its much more effective and the exact same time that you get the hold from your neck, give them I kick to the groin and then a couple of hits in the face and back of the neck before you run somewhere safe!

If you want to learn it just send me and mail and I will try to explain it, but best is if you contact an local instructor!

[MannyFresh1254]

you CAN just hit them in the face -_-

[DaFallenOne1]

i love these wanna b videos i do MMA n this will never work the only way out of any choke is brute strength if ur strong enough to pull his arm down to release ur neck otherwise ur toast or in her case fucked...

[BCCmma64bang]

just kick him in the balls or go for an eye strike!! keep it simple

[costa200]

This frontal choke is mainly used with the victim pinned down.

[Simon0]

nice. i hope i never have to use it.

[pigat25]

this does'nt look very effective, i mean this guy is 6'1'' 210 lbs and she is about 5' 5'' 110 lbs, if this guy gets pissed she gets hurt plain and simple,unless she has some REAL hardcore self defense tactics unlike this bull shit here.

[donor09]

why you need to do something with your elbow ?if you can hit by your leg below his apdominal.

[Scipion121212]

Unless it is me. Lol. I can protect my groin without hands. guess how?

[donor09]

yh you can, but if only you are fast to reflex :PP

[Scipion121212]

Or when I predict? that might throw me out of balance, but that does not change the fact I am holding victims neck (theoretically lol) it will probably actually worsen it.

[landon99svt]

This is an invalid technique. 6ft 200lbs man is mad and decides he wants to choke out this lady. He will do just that....go right to the eyes and groin.

[kevsenior]

I don't think so , your solution will just make him madder . This way breaks his posture and grip .

[dewayneburford]

won't work on a mad high and stronger attacker try the groining kick first then eye gouge

[melchiordani]

Omg this technic is stolen from Krav Maga, but preformed (like many stolen technics) very very badly!!

She doesn't know what the hell she is talking about...

[ANT6184]

uhh, how long has Krav Maga been around, I pretty much guarantee everyt technique in Krav Maga was already done by other true fighting styles and by other rebranded ones.

[melchiordani]

Krav Maga is the best street and battle tested system in the world. True fighting styles?? Don't make me laugh you meen martial arts, kata bullshit. Krav is not a martial ART it's no nonsense defencive system that really works. Believe me I know what I am talking about. Barbie doll in the Vid doesn't...

[lillan2]

@melchiordani I know this is an really old post but just wanted to say, I totally agree with you!

I have started training Krav Maga sense January and its really fun and effective! Haven't learned so many techniques yet but I can I few... Like getting out of chock holds from the front, hammarpunch, elbow punch, educational block, open hand - and fist punch and kicks and kneeing the groin. Don't know the English word for the technics, I am from Sweden so our instructors uses swedish translations.

[LordSaradoc]

What about a simple swing? I mean he has no defense up or anything.

If you move like that with enough force and the grip is tight you just kill yourself.

[judgenoose]

when she elbows your arms down you can grab some titties

[onclickBR]

I saw j.lo doing this in that crap movie.

[WootWoW6]

I know how to win a fight, a straight shot to the throat. It works every time

[GiftedBalla]

she'll have the person choking her stop doing so by the time she finishes lifting her arm like that.

[SectorFour20]

titties

[cubfankid12]

stinky

[cubfankid12]

this video stinks. give up

[ifodtouch]

what the fuck is that birch doing out of the kitchen.

[twygsta]

YECCCHHH I just threw up a bit. It would be a bit difficult to raise your arm when you're not able to breathe. I wonder if they know the definition of priorities PROTECT THE WINDPIPE!!!!!!!. And to mike0060 you'd be surprised how many morons use a choke like this, I was. there are alot of people out there that suffer from THE DUMB.

[mike0060]

Just a bit of logic, who uses a choke hold that often. Choke holds are only useful when used off by surprise. T_T

[nnorules1]

this bitch is no martial arts expert..

[breakinthebend]

Looks like he's practiced choking her in bed.

[aldemar868890]

she's more likely to choke on that dude's cock!!!

[strongestass]

her brain is adversely proportionate to her bust...

[DJMuppet339]

f home alone with webcam h

[Blackwing024]

haha this wont work... if i would want to choke someone especially woman i will press your neck so hard you would pass away before you cen even raise your hand..

[shenesky]

blondie....he will rape the shit out of you. end of story.

[roblee01]

he will just head butt you

[hardcorevnf]

jsut try and force ur fingers into the cunts eyes

[cheezeofages]

Useless if the foe is strong. You can't rotate like that usually. It's way easier to just yank the hands away at the wrist (your arms are much stronger pulling like that) or thrust both arms up through the middle and force them outward in a snap

[alexoidztube]

Not necessarily so, if applied with enough aggression- using the whole of the back muscles and momentum of waist and legs. but, yep, if the attacker is much stronger- I'd recommend a distraction technique.

The inside arms technique is good, too, but needs a follow up like cupped hand clap over ears and run like hell!

[cheezeofages]

if he is strong and has your neck all the muscle in the world really wouldn't help much, you'd just damage your neck. There are far more reliable ways, as we both agree.

But technically if a person is slow and dumb enough to get in a front chokehold they deserve to hurt themselves trying to do this or get strangled instead of breaking it properly.

[wesleyfilms]

I never use these moves. I just make up an escape plan as I go and out of luck it always works out.

[Jenna587]

The belt does not go with the outfit :)

[mrpapiou]

Yeah yeah yeah very nice Bruce lee..Why make it so complicated and dont give him nice kick in the nuts..ohh yeah of course..Because its your husband..Please ladies these things will not work if the other guy has hands like Rambo..Keep it simple and effective.Fingers in the eyes or kick on the nuts

[gaz4983]

if you want to watch real people, watch bob spour, richard grannon and bas rutten who have all been bouncers in a load of streetfights and bob and richard were in the SAS.

[gaz4983]

seriously take this fucking video off because some idiot is actually going to try this move and end up geting the shit knocked out of him/her or worse.

[gaz4983]

what a load of useless shit. id pay money to watch that skinny woman actually escape a choke hold in real life.

[kang174]

Useless.

[MattC1911]

That's great if Richard Simmons tries to choke you out, other than that it is worthless.

[Ronnell132]

many of you are missing the true intention. wonder why its called self DEFENSE and not self OFFENSE? your not tryna kill the bastard and go to jail for 1st degree murder..or is it 2nd i forget. i mean yeah with defense comes offense but on a certaint level.

[Bjarmi92]

lol that is such a bad tactic :'DDDDD !!!!!!! and the is no way that you can do that if you a woman :') guys a strong who attack.. there are not going to be skinny wimps attacking people you know.. and! the attack would never just stand still and just let you "lift your arm and rotate you body" MY ASS!! no way.. this is terrible !

[jackfire55]

lol u are going to get someone hurt. Cuz u have no clue what your talking about.

[Mikegutter]

Your better off just wheeling the elbow over horizontally as you step back with your foot. It is more powerful and more realistic against a stronger attacker. If a guy is really choking you, your not going to have the posture, time and composure to stay completely straight and twist on a vertical axis.

[slash763]

this is fucking gay why is this on youtube

[devilsknite1]

People may not have known this technique. Abused children may be watching this because there parent and/or guardian could be choking them. It can save lives. You may disagree with me, or agree. But I DO NOT think it is necessary to post such things.

[Spykachu78]

my god...seriously. Normaly Im more polite but this is idiotic no one chokes like that. What if the aggresor comes from the behind and chokes tightly what then?

[giannhsfgr]

if he comes from the behind, then fuckin watch the rest of the videos you idiot. they cover the rest of the situations

[Vincenthusky]

hey guys type in Bas Rutten and watch his how to attack and slit people's throat video and street fighing don't listen to this pussy shit

[olgeta]

This is just crap, nothing more and nothing less. It is like something out of a movie. recommend if you are interested in learn such things, go to a place where they teach many forms of fighting and blend them together to suit modern day enviroments.

[hunggarguy]

i would never grab her throat id grab those tites 1st.

[vmiester0007]

yea u kno every one chokes like that these days!!! one solution if hese that stupid 2 choke u right in front on you.........kick him in tha BALLS!!! c'mon

[julmajuha]

:D who the hell tries to choke like that? Frankenstein?

[kidkaos53]

OK I have taken Karate and we did a similar technique. I am 190lb 5'9 male just a normal sized guy and I was partnered with a girl. I did a choke hold on her and she couldnt get out of it.

The way your supposed to do it is when the guy COMES AT YOU with both hands at your neck you STEP BACK throw your arm up and come down with elbow FAST and HARD or else it wont work and you have to do this whole maneuver in under a second.

[japanesescott]

I have to say that, the demostration just shown is very poor, one reason if u twist ur whole body to try and make the attacker release his/her grip uve just unbalanced yourself loads.

Which then the attacker can just use a little force to push you over & thus ready for another attack on you while your lying on the floor. thats just one reason I might add :(

[krankykubby]

Who would grab her neck..id grab those fake knockers.

[RadenMan]

What is this for f*cking bullshit-shit!

How the hell are you going to rotate if a crazy guy (that problaby is much stronger then the women) your body when he holds your neck with a iron grip ?

I hope nobody take those shity women self defence shit in a serious way.

I you wanna learn to defence yourself, start training a serious martial art.

//Raden

[cruzieal1]

kick in the groin always works! but yeah, real stuff please who mugs/attacks anyone in front with hands around the neck? A bloke could easily pin a woman up with one hand if he wanted, if you have never experienced being strangled then this technique will not work, the panic will set in before you can think rationally. Its a start though...

[gwok0]

actually a kick to the groin is one of the worst things a woman can do.

[blackvans1234]

quick comment/ question

after you do the elbow down (at around 28 seconds, and while you're both bent over) do you think its possible to sweep one of their feet out from under them making them fall? (insted of an elbow/backfist to the face?

jw

[gaz4983]

haha i laughed so much when she demonstrated a backfist to the face. if she did that 2 someone then he would laugh at her. you need to fucking put them out if they are trying to kill you, not slap them a bit.

[iluvturts]

how can u fight with a manicure?

[gwok0]

and fake boobies

[knifinwar]

Give her respect, she's helping out others that starting to learn self defense. Why don't you make your own video and post it. I bet you suck !

[ternaldo]

I can't wait to get choked...

[Kuntawista]

Agreed. I've been watching a series of videos with these people, and the majority is absolute crap. This one isn't too bad, but I felt they could have done so much more with this technique than stand on their attacker's center line and try to issue strikes to the face.

[jsstevens]

One way to enhance this movement is hold on to the wrist of the arm you are striking, turn the attacker's wrist pinkey side up then strike down with your elbow just above the wrist... now the technique is an incredibly painful joint lock / wrist break that will bring a 300lb man to his knees.

[jsstevens]

I think you should demonstrate with force against a partner wearing tons of safety gear to demonstrate effectiveness. Since your partner is not offering any resistance how can the viewer have confidence that this will work. The slow examples are great, I just think you should also add a fast example where you break free against a real choke. Thanks for putting stuff like this out there.

[cpilfold420]

That choke is pussy..wtf. its SO easy to get out of, and doesnt incorperate real life situations. These guys think they know about self defence. What if somebody whos actually putting force into it and comes at you. THIS VIDEO IS COMPLETE CRAP!!!1
