Head and Arm Throw 101

The head and arm throw is a great tool for young wrestlers. The key is there has to be a set-up to the move. If an athlete just turns their hips and throws the move, they run into problems as they get older when others can defend it . Always teach this with the good habit of staying in a proper stance. The key to the move is to pull on the elbow, not the head grab as most coaches think.
