This book provides an introduction to the basic throws and takedowns of freestyle wrestling (cross-buttock, double-leg pickup etc.).
The moves are presented clearly, and anyone interested in learning more about the techniques of this sport, or interested in incorporating a few new moves into their repertoire, would be well served getting this book.
An experienced grappler will probably know most of this stuff, however, so it is really for beginners.
waste of time and money. there are a vast array of books by actual wrestlers that give you a far greater insight into grappling.... a very thin and dissapointing book
