US Olympian Ken Chertow demonstrates the techniques and drills that will enable you to learn and master a wide array of throws.

Coach Chertow covers throws from the set up to completion, sharing tips and showing how throw attempts can be chained to set up other throws. Topics covered include:

Drilling the Back Arch and Back Step - You cannot execute any wrestling throw without learning these two basic skills.
Lateral Drop - Learn the proper technique and setups from Coach Chertow that will make this a high-percentage technique.
Step Around Knee Block - A safer alternative than the lateral drop, apply this signature technique of NCAA Champion Quentin Wright from an over-under or 2-on-1 tie.
Body Lock - Use this move with intensity and aggressiveness to drive your opponent to the mat.
Pinch Headlock / "Cruncher" - A powerful combination utilizing a collar tie and underhook to throw your opponent directly to his back.
Whizzer - Use this versatile overhook position as a takedown or as a setup to your other throws like the lateral drop and step around knee block.
Screwlock - This combination of an overhook and collar tie will put you in a great position to attack your opponent with a throw.

Coach Chertow demonstrates counter attacks after an opponent has captured a single leg, both from the head-inside and high crotch positions. These counter attacks include the bundle arm step over, the chest lock, nearside cradles when your captured leg is on the mat or in the air, the flying cement job, and the neck wrench. Defensive movement drills such as sprawls, spins, and hip heists are also covered.
