Watch as Coach Dalton Jensen explains and demonstrates this warmup, working on pulling an opponent and preparing for a shot. He emphasizes pulling and letting the hips do the work and how to release the hands by letting the fingers go straight with a palm release. It is important to make a quick level and speed changes when taking the shot. He wants his wrestlers to bring their chests to the opponent's legs and allow the knee to float as long as possible while delivering a blow.
