How to unlock the Hustle and Muscle achievement in BACKBREAKER - Definitive Guide
Before selecting Tackle Alley from the menu and starting the game, you may want to switch the controls to the alternate setup (where A is juke and B is spin). Many other gamers have reported success with this setup.
As you progress through the Waves (there are 100 total), the number of defenders start at 3 and go to an insane 11. The more defenders, the easier it should be to reach a x5 combo.
Start with a spin or juke move on the first defender, you now will have a yellow combo bar in the upper lefthand corner of the screen. The yellow bar drains until you perform another spin, juke, or some sort of evasion. With each move, the bar restarts its countdown and you will be able to see the multiplier next to it.
I am not sure if you have to score a touchdown while you have the "x5 combo" active to pop the achievement or not. However, just keep trying to link your moves together and it will work for you.
If you are going to platinum this game you will get it. You can get it easily in one of the first few waves by just spinning around some defenders then showboating.
This is obtained when you reach a x5 at the end of any wave. A combo multiplier can be obtained by juking, or spinning defenders, entering a zone bonus pocket or making defenders miss their tackle by throwing them off you, or stiff arming them while they dive for you. This is easily done on wave 4
Spin past Every one on the field and by the time you get to the last guy the defenders behind you should catch up, spin in any direction to make the defenders dive for you, they should miss. Get a touch down to end the wave and get the achievement.
