The new and improved Takedown Defender is the most productive training device ever developed for wrestling and it's now available in a junior size made specifically for smaller wrestlers weighing up to 75 lbs.

can be practiced on the Takedown Defender to help wrestlers perfect
their defense and counter attacking skills. Skills that can be
developed using the Takedown Defender include:
- Front Head Lock
- Head Snap and Spin
- Shoulder block and back hand go behind
- Arm drag and spin
- Front head lock and shuck
Develop a quicker and more effective Sprawl
The sprawl is the most important defensive takedown skill a wrestler will
ever learn. Yet, in most practice rooms, the sprawl is given less practice
time than most other takedown skills. It is as simple as this. If you have
a great sprawl, you will be able to stop more leg shots and you will also have
better offence.
The Defender is the best training device available for developing
a great sprawl.
Improve Reaction Time
Reaction time is absolutely critical when sprawling or defending against leg
attacks. Quick reaction time is the key to stopping leg attacks. A small improvement
in this area will make an incredible difference. The Defender will help wrestlers
develop better muscle memory, anticipation and the quickest sprawl reaction
time they have ever had.
Find your most effective Takedown Stance position learn proper weight distribution
Each wrestler has a different takedown "SET POINT". The "SET POINT"
is the stance position that will allow a wrestler to assume the most
efficient position to attack as well as defend. The degree that the
knees are flexed, weight distribution, the vertical angle and the
spacing between the feet will determine how well a wrestler is able to
attack, defend and react.
70-80 percent of younger wrestlers rest to much weight on the heels. This
makes it tougher to sprawl, penetrate or react. Many matches are lost for this
reason alone. The Defender provides a great opportunity for a coach to teach
his wrestlers how to rest more weight on the balls of the feet and permanently
correct takedown stance flaws. The best part is that a coach can actually coach
a wrestler into his best stance position while working on the Defender.
