Terry Brands lays the foundation for successful wrestling with this video, which is filled with skills and drills every wrestler needs to know to become successful. Brands begins with an in-depth look at the five most important skills in wrestling: Stance, motion, level change, penetration and drive to the finish. From there he goes into three different categories: Offense skills and drills from the feet, counter offense skills and drills and down position. In each area Brands interlaces skills with drills. This tape is a must for young or beginning wrestlers, and even for the more experienced wrestler who may have gotten away from the basics.
