Attack System Wrestling Camps: An Inside Look |
|
|
Specialized Training System:
1. Learn the technique, broken down as neccessary
2. Drill it in steps if necessary, and then in whole
3. Drill many reps with a good partner, light resistance
4. Use it in live wrestling situations
5. Review and drill same technique in later sessions
What you see, you Learn
Every evening we drill techniques taught earlier in the day (step 5), as well as
techniques learned earlier in camp. This
leads to high retention levels for our athletes, and is an essential component of our training system.
Essential Elements of the Attack System:
1. Stance and Positioning to shut down the opponent, including shutting down opponents' underhooks, 2 on 1, head ties
2. Breaking opponent's position so you can attack
3. Essential Scoring Techniques that work at the highest level, against the best kids, including leg attacks and counter attacks
Essential Top Position Wrestling: Bump-Spiral System
1. Pressure: Get pressure on your opponent so you can break his position.
2. Control your opponent by getting underneath him
3. Turn him using the easiest, most effective methods
4. Pin techniques - making your opponent want to get off the mat!
Down Position System: An attacking offense
1. Positioning (keeping your base) and handfighting
2. Escape methods: standup, granby, power sit series.
3. Down Counters: leg riding, spiral, tightwaist chop, tilts, cradle, etc.
3 Biggest Mistakes made by camps:
1. Showoff camps: Big name, high dollar athletes come in, flash their medals and awards and sell their goods, but aren't really training athletes. This can be entertaining for kids to see and hear, and has some motivational benefits - but usually very little learning takes place.
2. Show and Tell camps: Athletes are taught way too many moves, and don't get to work on them long enough to learn them.
3. Factory camps: Way way way too many kids! Big camps that are money making machines. Your athletes will learn more in smaller camps where the athlete-coach ratio is lower.
Attack System Training for the Youth Wrestler: Our Goals
1. Train them the Youth variation of our system, which will work for them as long as they are competing.
2. (And most important) We want them to still be wrestling a decade from now. In our youth training system, unlike many others, we see a very low burnout rate.
