The double leg is a high percentage takedown. The double leg can be performed using many setups and finishes. It is very important to get deep penetration on your shot in order to counter your opponent’s defense and be in a good position to finish. Learning to get good penetration on your shot requires a lot of practice and training. Using the penetration drill for warm ups and conditioning will enforce good penetration on shots. For this video, 6x National Champion and US Olympic Wrestler Heath Sims demonstrates the double leg penetration drill.
