Forearm strikes against the neck are extremely powerful; they can be delivered with such force that it feels like the head is being torn off the body. Wind the arm around/across your body as if you were going to make a hammer-fist strike; of course, you will be much closer to your assailant when you are striking with the forearm.

Unwind the strike, aiming your outer forearm at your assailant’s neck. Power should come from the turning action of your hips, coupled with the pulling action of your back muscles. It should be the body moving the arm, not the other way around.

Strike at a 45-degree angle, hitting downward into the base of the neck.

Keep transferring your weight into the strike and driving through your target. With a solid, driving strike you should be able to knock your attacker to the ground.
