Defense in Neutral Position in Wrestling

In this section, we are going to be working on defensive scoring from a neutral position. We will be using our head position, a good stance, hand fighting, our elbows, and our hips as all means to stop our opponent's leg attack. The best defensive position is our good stance that you have already gone over. Lots of times, we tell our wrestlers no matter what's going on in the match, if they are tired, if they are losing, they are not sure what to do and they are on their feet, just maintain a good stance or do different drills or practice, wearing them out and keeping them in a good stance at all times. A good stance is your best defensive position.
