Here's the breakdown:\n<ol class=\"blog-lists\">\n \t<li>You check him with both of your forearms against his shoulders. This ensures that he doesn't get a tight hold on you and prevent you from getting the guillotine.<\/li>\n \t<li>Next you get the guillotine hold and drop to the ground. It's very important that when you get the guillotine hold you have your forearm against his trachea.<\/li>\n \t<li>As you go to the ground you keep one leg bend so that your knee is into his abdomen. Next, you utilize your momentum and a push from the knee that's into his abdomen to flip him over.<\/li>\n \t<li>This is where this self-defense technique gets lethal. If you retain control of his head in the guillotine as you flip him it will break his neck. This is not usually the goal of a self-defense technique, but there may be times when you have no choice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n[dfads params='groups=292&amp;limit=1&amp;orderby=random']\n<h4>WARNING<\/h4>\nBecause this is a lethal technique you should <strong>NEVER<\/strong> practice it full speed, there are just too many things that can go wrong. In fact, I wouldn't recommend practicing the flip part at speed unless you and your training partner are very experienced. It's just <strong>TOO<\/strong> dangerous. Once his weight and momentum send him over in the flip, there is very little you can do to stop it. You'll also want to make sure you have training mats for this one.\n\nThis is a great self-defense move, but should only be used when your life is in serious danger.\n\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"read-more-link\" style=\"clear: both;\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/fightfast.com\/nbcv\/QK-2\/ntbt-k.php?utm_campaign=BillyMonkeyFlip&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_content=0D4E9E9F&amp;utm_term=existing-list\">Click here for more training by Billy Burke!<\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Lethal Defense Against A Front Tackle A front tackle is usually used by a bigger man who is using his larger mass to take the advantage.
