A young woman is winning national praise for fighting off her attacker at the gym. Now, some women are taking self-defense lessons. Nashali Alma was working out in her building’s gym in Florida. After she opened the door for a man, he tried to attack her. Alma relentlessly protected herself before the suspect fled the scene. Experts say her using a forceful voice sent a message to her assailant that she was not gonna back down.
I wanna say that Ann Mercogliano is definitely pretty and looks really nice in her attire. On a serious note, that woman did a good job by defending herself. Some people will say that it was fake or staged. That guy was arrested so it was definitely real.
This is exactly why I do kickboxing. Iβve never gotten into a physical altercation before, but I think itβs definitely important to know a thing or two just in case, especially as a woman π€·πΌββοΈ also that womanβs courage is extraordinary
I don't understand why she didn't pick up a barbell or kettlebell or other piece of equipment and whack him in the head with it! She was surrounded by potentially lethal weapons!
I'm happy she is alive but the guy looks like he was drunk and sloppy or God protected her no way a girl can fight of a guy so easily either that or he was hesitant to get caught or her fight back thru him off guard, she did good in what she did but she should have never opened the door for him, I experienced something similar as a 13 year old went to visit my friend and her brother said to come in he used to date my sister and called me cunada which is an endearing word for sister in law sat with him in the couch and waited he said his sister would be out in a bit I was very naively calm he then told me to go check in the room after I did that's when he tried to force me I was so scared I started fighting back and he acted like this guy sloppy I feel like he was enjoying my fear because he even laughed at me at one point I said a lot of things I screamed and even got scissors at one point to scare him towards the end of my struggling him I cried out to God and don't remember the rest I just remember leaving and walking home that's when I saw a friend and told him what he tried to do and he hugged me and cried with me I feel like it was God that protected me because , what rapist let's you walk away, he litterly looked like the devil possessed him and I'm just thankful that nothing happened because no one would have believed me, knowing how it is in Mexican traditions they would have said why was she so stupid to go in the room with him , when I told his sister once that her brother tried to hurt me once she put a sad face she didn't know how he hurt me but In her eyes I think she did I feel like he might have done something to her too
Yeah the way he was trynna throw her to the ground instead take her away, assumed as much. He is a perverted monster. Great job defending yourself sis, next time and for all ladies, pack pepper spray, a taser and a gun/knife.
Just stick your thumbs in his eye socket
He didn't want to hurt her you can see he just wanted to put the head inside π
wheres the training for men?

Do not go to a gym without staff.
It honestly amazes me that more people don't hit the male attackers in their weakest spots lmfao

That is why itβs important to close the gym at night hours. So no one gets attacked.
Not impressed π
You should be equal
Swear simple moves go for the balls or poke a eye snap a finger backwards last resort bite his dick
It takes a real real coward to lay his hands on a woman
Rather keep my gun on me. And stay away from gyms like that one.
Great job π π π π ππ―

This was staged
1) opening late???
2) opening alone???
3) cameras so very well placed????
I like the message of I wasnβt scared but letβs be honest when a dude comes out of no where to attack u, ur gonna be scared
Seems rehearsed
A paratrooper explaining combat? They need an MMA coach or fighter in there.
It's always them
I am a street fighter I give πππto that girl..

Why is nobody at the gym ποΈββοΈ? Or outside
Should have kicked attacker in the balls.
She should've hit him in the groin.
She would do good in BJJ and wrestling
