<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. In the top position,
hook one of your opponent's ankles in the crook of your knee, so that you are out to one side of him. You will essentially be sitting on one of his
ankles, with your calf threaded under it. The leg you use to hook his ankle should
be the opposite leg from the one you are attacking--that is, hook your right
leg around his left ankle, or left leg around his right ankle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Reach one arm
underneath your opponent's body and across, and the other over the top and
across, locking around his near arm and head. Your hands should be locked near
the side of your opponent's head and his ankle should remain trapped.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Use your locked arms
to suddenly and powerfully suck his head and arm down under his body.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. As his head goes
under him, sit out onto your side. His head will go all the way underneath
himself, stacking him up on on his shoulder blades. The hooked ankle is now an
anchor helping to hold him in place and prevent him from birding. Squeeze tight
until the referee stops you.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">1. Leg ride your
opponent. From the top position, slip your right leg inside of his right thigh,
or left leg inside of his left thigh. Then hook your toes around his ankle or
calf. This hooked leg will anchor you in position, and create one side of the
banana split.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2. Reach across and lock
both arms under your opponent's free leg, so that your hands lock on the inside
of his leg just above the knee. While leg riding you will not be square with
your opponent, but offset, so that you can attack any part of the side of his
body opposite your hooked leg.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">3. Rock backward,
pulling the leg you grabbed toward you. This will turn your opponent on his
back, while each of his legs are restrained, one by your hooked leg from the
leg ride, and one from your arms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">4. Use your arms and
hooked leg to separate your opponents legs as far apart as possible. This will
cause him to go flatter so you can score back points.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">5. If it is apparent
that you will not be able to pin your opponent with the banana split, roll
forward back into your leg riding position after you've scored your back
points.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">1. Assume the top
position, with your partner flat on his stomach. Your hips should be behind
your partners hips, and your hands should be in a position to reach around your
partner's waist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2. Plant one of your
hands behind the corresponding knee of your partner: left hand behind left
knee, or right hand behind right knee.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">3. With your other arm,
apply pressure across your partner's face with the forearm, and lift their
head, moving it toward the knee that is pinned in position. It can take several
lifting motions to inch an opponent's head close enough to their knee to lock up
the cradle when they are giving full resistance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 7.5pt 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">4. When your partner's
head is close enough to their knee, slip the arm behind the knee under their
leg, and and clasp your hands. One arm will be around the knee, and one around
the head. How far you must move the head to the knee is determined by the wingspan
of the wrestler using the cradle. A wrestler with long arms will be able to
clasp their hands without moving their opponent's head as far, and will
generally find the cradle more effective. Use a finger-on-finger grip instead
of a hand-on-hand grip. If you can reach far enough, a grip where each hand
grasps the wrist of the opposite arm can be effective, and will result in a
tighter cradle.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">5. When you have locked
your grip, rock backward, so that your partner's back is to the ground, and you
are off to the side, with your grip still locked. Putting pressure on your
opponent's side with your knee and extending your arms outward, while keeping
them clasped, will tighten the cradle.</span></div>

yours looped over his.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">1. Because the far-side cradle is
a versatile technique, there are several ways from which you can start it. For
beginning wrestlers, though, it is best to learn the move when the opponent is
broken down flat. Cradling your opponent when he is already broken down lessens
the chance of making a mistake and getting reversed. So, use whatever breakdown
you like — just get him flat.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Once your opponent is broken
flat, straddle one of his legs (the leg on the opposite side of his
body from the arm you want to secure in the cradle). For example, if you want
to secure his (far) left arm and cradle the left side of
his body, straddle his right leg. Don’t forget to keep pressure on
the center of his back with your chest to keep him from basing up.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">2. To gain control of your
opponent’s upper body, you will need to crossface him and secure
his far arm.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">1. Press the boney part of the inside of your wrist (near the thumb)
across your opponent’s face, towards the far arm that you want to control. This
isn’t a punch, so you can’t “windup” or pull your arm back to increase the
force. However, you may give your opponent a stiff crossface by applying a
steady, inward pressure as you move your hand across his face and towards the
arm.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">2. Grip his arm, high on the triceps, with your thumb pointing up.
Pull his arm in towards you to secure his upper body.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">3. Stay on your toes and circle to
the same side of his body as the leg you were straddling. For example, if you
were straddling his right leg, circle to his right side to
make your bodies perpendicular to each other. Make sure to keep your weight on
his back with your chest as you do this.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">While off of his body, post
your free hand on the mat in between your opponent’s legs, next to the
same-side leg as the arm you are controlling. For example, if you used
your right arm for the crossface and are positioned on
the right side of your opponent’s body, post your hand on the mat in between
his legs and next to his left knee. The placement of your hand will
make it easier to gather your opponent’s head and leg together.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">4. To begin collecting your
opponent’s head and leg together, or “crunching” the cradle, you must first put
your legs in position to provide the strength and leverage you need to get your
hands locked.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Place your knee (that
is furthest from your opponent’s head) next to his hip, and step up
with the leg nearest to his head. For example, if you are positioned
on the right side of your opponent’s body, place your left
knee next to his right hip and step up with your right leg.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">As you step up with your near
leg, lift your opponent’s body up and off of the mat. Keep your hand on the mat
next to his knee to prevent him from escaping. At this point, you can begin
pressing your opponent’s head to his knee. The most common mistake beginning
wrestlers make with the far-side cradle is trying to move their opponent’s knee
towards their opponent’s head in order to get their hands locked. Your
opponent’s legs are stronger than his upper body in this position, so use
superior leverage to walk his head to his knee.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Use the leg you stepped up with
to drive as you force your opponent’s head towards his knee. Remember that as
you do this, your opponent will be trying to turn towards you to prevent you
from locking your hands. Keep lifting his upper body off of the mat and driving
into him. This will be constant up-and-down motion, allowing you to
progressively working your opponent’s upper body to his lower body. Eventually,
you will be able to lock your hands.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">5. Once you get your hands locked,
you can begin to take your opponent to his back. But, first you must reposition
your legs:</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">1. Move the knee that you have closest to your opponent’s head to the
mat next to his lower back. (This will be the knee of the leg you stepped up
with to help you drive.)</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">2. Step up with your far leg. Imagine that you are on the face of a
clock and step toward two o’clock.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">6. Push off of the leg you stepped
up with and pull your opponent over the knee you placed in his lower back. If
done correctly, you will pull him to his back and your knee will be underneath
his lower back.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br /></span></div>
<u1:p></u1:p>

<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">There are several different
ways to keep your opponent secure in this position, but the most basic and
effective way to do this is to place your near-knee in his hip. (This will be
the same knee you took him over.) From here, keep your lock tight and pinch
your elbows. Also, pull your lock towards you as you use your near-knee to push
his hip.</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;"> 1. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Put
pressure down onto the defender's upper-body and post your hand on their head,
stuffing their face down and into the mat.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Spin
out to one side, staying off your knees, staying on your toes, and putting
weight and pressure fully onto the opponent. They should be unable to do
much about this except to just lay there. They may try to pull their legs up
towards their chests to try to get back to their base position, but that will
only help you pull off this pinning combination. You should be
perpendicular to them at this point.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. While
resting all your weight on your opponent, and keeping your hand posted on their
head, reach out with your free hand and grab/hook the ankle of your opponent's
near leg with that hand.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. Put
your head into their side. This requires that you take your weight off of
their back. Keep pressure down on their head with your hand, and keep hold of
their near ankle with the other hand. This motion of placing your head into
their side should be a quick one. NOTE: If your opponent bases up (gets
back to being on their hands and knees as opposed to being flat on their
stomach) put the head into their hip. However, if they are still
flat, drive your head into their ribs (this tends to cause the opponent
discomfort). Where you put your head determines what leverage you have and on
what axis they will be bent in half.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5. Drive
your head into their side (either the ribs or the hip, depending on their
position), and pull on their head and their ankle. This is like fitting an
arrow to a bow. Picture yourself as the arrow, and your opponent as the
bowstring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">6. As
you drive, and their leg starts to bend toward their head, monitor how close
your hands come to each other. Once you feel you can lock your hands,
slide the hand that is gripping their ankle down to their knee-joint and then
lock your hands. Your elbow joint should be in their knee joint while your
other elbow joint should be at the back of their head.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">7. Once
your opponent is on their side, Lock hands and squeeze.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">8. Finally,
drive your opponent to their back, staying on top of them with your weight
over their chest to force their shoulders to the mat. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. Stay
on your feet while your opponent does the same. While both on your feet, tie
your parter up with one hand cupping over his triceps. The other hand should be
around his neck and should be resting on the nape. This is a common position
when tying up, and it will not automatically signal that you are attempting a
headlock.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Step
in towards your partner quickly. Your leading leg should be on the same side
being used to cup the nape. As you step in, powerfully rotate your body inward.
Pull your partner's arm across your waist, using your handhold on his triceps.
As you turn, catch your partner's head in your armpit. Extend the hand that was
resting on his nape. Wrap it further around his neck.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Fall
backward. Keep your partner's head and arm held fast. When you go down to the
mat, your partner will be on his back. Lean on him with your back. Place one
arm around his head. Pull his arm across your waist. At this point, lock your
hands. His head and one arm should be stuck in your grasp.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. Keep
pressure on your opponent, Stay on your heels and squeeze the headlock as tight
as possible. Lift his head so that he cannot bride off his neck.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5. Try
to keep your body at a T with your partner. Staying perpendicular will enable
you to exert more pressure. Prevent escape by paying careful attention to him.
Make sure to keep your center of mass from straying too far to the opposite
side of your opponent, or he will be able to roll you over and escape. At
worse, he could even reverse your situation. If you feel yourself being rolled
over, arch your back and attempt to stop the roll by propping yourself up with
your head.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. Assume
the referee's position; get on your hands and knees, and have your partner
place one hand on your elbow and the other on your stomach.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. As
soon as the referee starts the action, throw the arm on the side that your
opponent is covering across your body and plant it near your other hand.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Rotate
your your body upward, supporting yourself on the newly planted hand, and bring
the leg on the side your opponent covered underneath your body and out in front
of you, so you are sitting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. As
you complete the sit motion, slip the arm opposite your planted hand between
your oppnent's legs and hook it around his inner thigh on the side opposite the
side he covered. You should be sitting offset from your opponent with an arm on
his thigh for leverage.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5. Scoot
along the ground and get behind your opponent, scoring a reversal. Use the arm
you have hooked between his legs to pull and assist you as you get around him
while preventing him from following.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. In
order to arm drag your opponent, you must first gain control of the arm you
want to attempt the move on. Do this by grabbing his wrist with an over-handed
grip (thumb facing up). This should be done using your near hand. For example,
if you want to arm drag your opponent’s right arm, secure his right
wrist with your left hand.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Once
you have secured his wrist, pull his arm towards you to straighten it. This
will make it easier for you to control his arm throughout the move.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Next,
bring your free hand to the inside of your opponent’s arm and grasp it just
above the elbow near the triceps. For example, if you are arm dragging your opponent’s
right arm, bring your right arm inside of his arm (near the arm
pit) and grasp it just above the elbow with your thumb pointing up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Begin
to pull your opponent’s arm down and away towards your foot that is opposite of
his arm. That is, if you are dragging your opponent’s right arm, pull his
arm down and towards your right foot. Pull his arm by using the drag, or
the “hook,” you have on the inside of his arm. Then, use the grip you have on
his wrist to help guide his arm down and towards your foot.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. As
you perform the arm drag, your opponent’s body will turn and his back will be
slightly exposed to you. Take a big step behind your opponent with your leg
that is on the same side of your opponent’s body as the arm you are dragging.
While you step, release the grip you have on your opponent’s wrist and reach
behind him to secure his hip bone.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">As
you step in, make sure to keep dragging your opponent’s arm down and away. Keep
your hips in towards your opponent once you grab his hip. Allowing space
between your bodies will give him a better chance to escape.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5. You
should be almost completely behind your opponent in this position with one hand
on his hip and the other hand still gripping the inside of his arm. Now,
release the grip you have on your opponent’s arm and force that hand towards
the hand you have securing his hip. You can do this by trapping your opponent’s
arm between your arm and his body as you reach to lock your hands together. You
can also move your arm underneath his arm to get a body lock. Either way is
fine.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">1. While
on your feet, tie up with your opponent and secure underhooks with both arms.
An underhook is simply putting your arm around your opponent, under his arm,
rather than over it. Underhooks are generally a desirable position when tying
up, so your opponent will try to deprive you from getting two underhooks in.
You may have to pummel with your opponent for a while before you can get both
in.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2. Lock
your hands behind your opponent's back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">3. Squeeze
your opponent in toward you while lifting upward, straighting him from his
normal stance. This will make him less stable. When he is straightened,
pressure forward with your chest and pull him in with your arms, drawing his
mass under the forward pressure of your chest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">4. As
you try to force your opponent over straight backward, you can step forward
around the outside of one of his feet as you push forward in an attempt to trip
him up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">5. If
your opponent falls straight to his back, which is likely, keep your underhooks
in, or take one out to switch to a grip around his arm and head. Stay face to
face and parallel with your opponent and wrap both your legs around the
outsides of his legs. Squeeze and arch your back for additional pressure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. From
referee’s position, bring the hand you’re using to control your opponent’s
elbow underneath his body and reach across to grasp the knee furthest from you.
For instance, if you’re lining up on your opponent’s right side, you will reach
for his left knee. Your palm should be in contact with the outside of his knee
in this position. Bring your free hand off of your opponent’s naval and grip
the foot of the same leg in which you are controlling the knee.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. While
gripping your opponent’s far knee and far foot, pull this leg in towards you to
take away his balance and keep him from defending against the breakdown.
Remember to keep the shoulder of the arm you used to grasp your opponent’s knee
underneath his body.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Get
on your toes and drive your opponent in the direction of the leg you’re
controlling. He will not be able to use this leg and will fall flat onto his
hip. From here, continue to wrestle on offense.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. From
referee’s position, release the hand that is on your opponent’s elbow and reach
under his body and across his midsection. The hand that you have positioned on
your opponent’s naval in referee’s position will reach down to his far ankle.
That is, if you are lining up on your opponent’s right side, you will reach
your hand down to his left ankle, and vice versa. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Grip
your opponent’s ankle at the very top of the laces on his shoes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Lift
your opponent’s ankle up and slightly away from his body. Try to lift your
opponent’s ankle as high as you can in order to make it difficult for him to
defend and regain control of his leg.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. With
your opponent’s ankle in the air, get off of your knees and onto your toes.
Keep your chest in contact with the center of his back and use your legs to
drive your opponent directly forward. Doing so will put a great amount of
weight on your opponent’s hands and cause him to fall flat on his stomach.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. Use
your hand closest to the leg being attacked and create separation by pushing on
your opponents shoulder. You don’t need much separation but this will keep your
opponent from locking in tight and will make breaking the hold easier.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Push
off with your toes and turn your hips from facing your opponent to the
direction of the attack.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. At
the same time you are twisting your hips pushing your far hip against your
opponents body. Use your far hand and arm to push under the armpit of your
opponent. If you can reach the leg being attacked grab on to it and as your
center shifts as described below this will create a lot of pressure on your
opponents shoulder and arms. During this motion drop your shoulder into the
movement and push your legs away in a sprawling motion.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4. Move
your center of gravity from over your hips and legs to your chest and upper
body as you put your chest upon your opponent.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1.
From referee’s position, you have to adjust the way you start if you want to
gain the advantage over your opponent with the spiral. While on top, take the
hand you are using to cup your opponent’s elbow and turn your palm up for an
underhanded grip. Your thumb should now be on the outside of his elbow. This
will give you the ability to quickly get your arm under your opponent’s
near-side arm once the referee blows his whistle. Your other arm will remain
around your opponent’s midsection, as normal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. On
the whistle, release the grip you have on your opponent’s elbow and place your
arm underneath his near-side armpit. For example, if you used your left
hand to cup his left elbow, release that grip and place your left arm
underneath his left armpit. Keep your palm up and place the inside of your
forearm — just above your thumb — high on his triceps, near the armpit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">The
placement of your arm should be “shallow.” That means you shouldn’t get your
arm too far “deep” under his armpit. If you can touch the palm of your hand to
your opponent’s near-side pectoral, you are in good position. This depth will
allow you to block and drive against your opponent’s arm in order to break him
down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3.
Release the tight waist and move your hand down towards your opponent’s
same-side thigh. For example, if you initially used your right
arm for the tight waist, move it down towards his right thigh. From
here, spiral his thigh (reach your hand inside of his thigh) and place your
palm against his inner thigh.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4.
With your arms placed in the correct position, get on your feet. Make sure to
keep your chest in contact with your opponent’s back as you do this. Your chest
should be positioned high on your opponent’s back, near his shoulder blades.
Your head should be over your opponent’s shoulder on the opposite side of his
body, next to his head. (If you’re positioned on the left side of his body,
your head will “hang” slightly over his right shoulder.) Position your legs
slightly behind you so you can pressure into your opponent. This is the
spiral ride.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5.
With your hips parallel to your opponent’s body, start taking big steps and
walk your feet in a circle towards his hands. As you circle, use your forearm
to push his arm forward and press against his inner thigh with the palm of your
hand. Essentially, you are moving both of your arms away from one another in
opposite directions. Use your legs to pressure into him as you do this.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">You
may not be able to break your opponent down instantly with the spiral. However,
if you stay heavy on top of him, circle your feet quickly, and continue to move
his arm and leg away from each other with your spiral grips — you will
eventually break him flat!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1. Start
with either the staggered or squared stance. With either foot take a large step
low and forward towards your opponent.
Keep your weight balanced over your leading leg and do not over extend
your upper body too much in order to keep this balanced position. Your hands and arms should remain in close
to your body (to avoid getting hooked).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2. Continue
to step through while keeping your trailing legs knee off the mat. If it does hit the mat make sure it does not
slide and that no weight is distributed to that knee. (it should bounce off the
mat)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3. Continue
the step though all the while avoiding your leading leg knee to touch the mat.
(This is difficult to perform at first but with leg strength and practice this
will be easier to do)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">4. Finish
the move by moving back up into your original staggered or squared stance.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2.
Circle in the direction of the arm you placed on his neck. This forces him to
step to follow you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Put one of your knees on the ground right between both of your opponent's legs

Secure an inside tie. This is done by grasping one of your opponent's triceps
with an overhand grip.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2.
Pull your opponent's arm over your head and behind you, as you drop to one knee
and shoot your free arm between his legs. The knee that you should drop down is
the knee opposite the side you have your inside tie on.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">3.
Lock your hands around your opponent's leg.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">4.
At this point you can drive up to your feet with the single leg locked, and
trip your opponent to score a takedown, or switch your grip so that you are
hooked around both his legs, and drive to the side, finishing the high crotch
as you would.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

opponent's lower back.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

about how your feet should be positioned, jump in the air—when you land your
feet should be roughly in the position of a good stance.</span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;"><u2:p></u2:p>2. Bend
your knees until your forearms can rest on your thighs, which will also help
you understand how low you need to be when facing an opponent. It may take
several practice sessions to get comfortable in this position and to strengthen
the muscles in your legs and back that are critical for maintaining a low
posture.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;"></span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;">3. Your
back should be straight with your buttocks down and head up. Your weight should
be evenly distributed between both feet and slightly forward, but make sure to
stay on your toes and off of your heels.</span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;">4. Once
your body is in good position, bring your hands out in front of you. Your hands
serve as your first line of defense, so dropping them at anytime could mean
takedown points for your opponent, or worse.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;"></span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";"><br />
<u1:p></u1:p></span><span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;"><u2:p></u2:p>5. Keep
your palms facing upwards, or next to each other (like the manner of holding a
ball). Never face your palms down—this is called “heavy hands.” Holding your
hands in this manner dramatically slows your reaction time and makes your
wrists easier to tie up.</span></div>

circle or move from side to side, keeping your feet and base wide. Never cross
your feet when moving in your stance as this will leave you open to be taken
down and also create make you more vulnerable to injury.</span><br />

out.</span><br />

body leave you more open to an attack.</span></div>
