Jenna’s mom brought her to my Elite clinic when I was living on LI and coaching at Hofstra. Jenna was a little kid. Her mom believed in her. Said she was special & was going to do big things with her life. Her mom was right.

My favorite thing about the sport of wrestling has always been the “chosen suffering”. The necessity to sacrifice more & deeper when resistance comes. Because of that requirement I have always been drawn to the deep respect among those who partake. Honor & respect among foes!

Any well executed double leg REQUIRES the offensive man to “bull” his neck. To decrease the distance between ones shoulders and base of skull. That’s the SAFEST way to attack an opponent. How is that a targeting? The safety of the tackler must be kept into consideration as well.
