John Smith's Defense from the Feet

with John Smith, Oklahoma State University Head Coach,
2006, '05, '04 & '03 NCAA Champions; 2X Olympic Gold Medalist and NCAA Champion

Hall of Fame wrestler and coach John Smith of Oklahoma State University believes a good defense will lead to a potent offense. The theme of his defense is a strong head, hand and hip pressure. With that in mind, Smith covers defensive technique in five areas: High Crotch defense, single leg defense, chest over head, leg in the air and sprawling. Each section includes at least three different techniques, which include: sit through, body lock, butt drag, limp leg and more. Excellent instruction from one of the best teachers in the sport!
