I can't move during an attack

The inability to move during an attack is called tonic immobility. It is a neurological reflex, not a choice. Striated muscles contract involuntarily and block any voluntary action for 10 seconds to 30 minutes.

למה זה קורה — המנגנון

Tonic immobility has been documented in humans since 1977 (Suarez & Gallup). It occurs when the amygdala detects a deadly threat that neither flight nor fight can answer. The motor cortex stays active but the brain blocks motor commands. Concretely: you think 'move', but no signal reaches the muscles.

כיצד שיטת אביקזר מתמודדת עם זה

The Avikzar System favors joint leverage (not muscle strength) because under freeze your muscles don't respond. A rearward elbow strike uses body weight + hip pivot: it works even partially blocked.
