Originally published in 1991, the first edition of The Wrestling Drill Book was purchased by more than 15,000 coaches and parents. Now we bring you the second edition, Wrestling Drills for the Mat and the Mind. Author Dennis Johnson, a former wrestler, successful wrestling coach, and expert in the science of sports skills teaching and instruction, provides coaches with a wealth of well-thought out drills for running an effective practice at any level. This book includes 142 wrestling drills, 43 games and mat activities, and 24 warm-up and conditioning ideas.

Johnson understands the latest sport science research showing that champions in any sport, but especially wrestling, must develop more than just technique. They must also develop their mental game. Johnson enlists the help of one of America's best sports psychology specialists, Larry Lauer, who contributes two new chapters on developing and drilling key mental skills wrestlers need for success in wrestling-and in everyday life.
