About this video

Executing a successful double leg run through:

  1. Avoid common mistakes such as shooting to both knees and relying solely on arm strength. This makes it easy for opponents with basic wrestling defense to sprawl and counter.
  2. Ensure your head is over your hips and drive off your leg while keeping your head up. This positioning provides better leverage and power.
  3. Instead of taking one big step, which may not be sufficient against a resisting opponent, focus on running through the double leg by taking multiple steps.
  4. Drill the technique by exaggerating the steps, taking around five steps to instill the habit of running through the opponent.
  5. Use any setup to get into the double leg position, grip behind the knees, drive with your head, and bring your follow-through leg forward.
  6. Drive across your opponent rather than straight back, pushing off your leg and running your feet continuously until the takedown is complete.
