Cover: leg tilt series for any wrestler
Leg Tilt Series for Any Wrestler
with Brendan Buckley, Cal-Poly Head Coach;
former Columbia University Head Coach;
2005 EIWA Coach of the Year; All American wrestler at Fresno St. University

Many wrestlers get in trouble when they try to force the legs in which puts them out of position and gives their opponent an easy escape - or worse, a reversal for back points. In this instructional DVD, Brendan Buckley demonstrates a simple and effective leg series that will give your wrestlers the tools they need to dominate on top.

Coach Buckley's leg tilt series covers it all: Set-ups to get into legs, six turns to score points and accrue riding time, and different transitions from one turn to another. Buckley shows two set-ups to start the series that are easy to hit and won't alert your opponent to what's coming next.

Buckley demonstrates six positions that can lead to points once the legs are in:

  • Hook an ankle
  • Half nelson to "create a window"
  • 2-on-1 tilt from a belly down position
  • Cross body ride
  • Ball and chain
  • Power half
In each position, Buckley shows how to use hip pressure to make the turn easier. You don't need to be strong to make these positions work! These turns are effective for any wrestler at any level.

Along with detailed technique, Buckley demonstrates different ways to transition from one move to the next. What makes this series so effective is that your opponent, while trying to defend the move, will set you up to easily transition from one position to another allowing you to rack up back points and score a technical fall.

Buckley also shows how to transition smoothly into a bar series when running the cross body ride and ball and chain series.

This series was a favorite of Buckley's when he competed and produces great success for the Columbia wrestlers. Incorporate it into your system today!

Motor skills are vital for any wrestler striving to reach the highest levels of the sport. They are the base for his success - and the wider the base, the higher the potential for success

In this instructional wrestling DVD, Coach Guerrero covers nine drills that will help you develop your sprawl, circling, back arch, penetration and hip heist skills. In addition, you will improve your flexibility, agility, and core, hip and shoulder strength.

Building up these motor skills will broaden your skill base, give you a better "feel" for wrestling and help you reach highest possible level you're capable of reaching.

Guerrero's drills include:

  • Back Arch Drill - A great warm-up drill that helps build essential core strength.
  • Wall Drill - Develops shoulder strength, lower back strength and flexibility.
  • Sprawl Drill - Improves your positioning, minimizes potential scoring threats, develops change of direction speed and instinct, so you can pursue the score until you get the points.
  • Fake Shot Drills - Sharpen your reaction skills.
  • Motor Skill Defense Drills - Learn to position your head to take away scoring area, and create scoring opportunities by effectively moving your opponent.
  • Motor Skill Offense Drills - Learn the keys to finishing takedowns and getting opponents to their backs without getting into a scramble or funk defense position.

Not only does Guerrero thoroughly demonstrate each drill, he shows you how each drill is applicable in a match situation.

Once these motor skills become second nature to you, small technical skills become easy to fix.

Discover how to use the momentum of a takedown to score back points.

One of the biggest misconceptions in wrestling is that the differences between folkstyle and freestyle makes it hard to be good at both. In this instructional wrestling DVD, Olympic Bronze medalist Terry Brands demonstrates that is not the case.

Coach Brands covers the key to success to both styles - transitional wrestling. To achieve success at any level, in any arena, you need to make a seamless transitions from set-up, to takedown, to turns to pins.

Brands teaches the philosophy and techniques you need to be a great wrestler in both the freestyle and folkstyle arenas. He focuses on four areas:

  • High Crotch - Learn head and hand placement to start turns earlier.
  • Double Leg - See how to get into the best position for back points.
  • Trap Arm Gut/Wings- Learn to catch the arm and drive to the mat to get tilts and falls.
  • Power Singles and Extended Singles - Learn the key to producing drive and power in your singles.
  • Throughout the DVD, Brands demonstrates technique for both freestyle and folkstyle and shows you the fundamental positions that will move you closer to becoming an elite wrestler.

    Wrestlers struggle when they wrestle in "chunks." Learn to eliminate that philosophy to expand scoring opportunities.

    This DVD is for all wrestlers aspiring to get to the "elite" level.
