Product Description
-------------------
If you've got the basic moves down but want to take your
wrestling to the next level, then your best move is to learn from
the master himself--coaching and wrestling legend Dan Gable. On
Gable's Advanced Wrestling DVD he shows how to master even the
most challenging wrestling techniques--the ones that make good
wrestlers great, and great wrestlers champions.
The Zadick brothers, Bill (a former NCAA champion) and Mike (a
three-time All-American), demonstrate the techniques and tactics
that will provide you the perfect blueprint for every maneuver.
The On Your Feet program covers techniques from a standing
position, including the stance and ties used in setups, headlocks
and bodylocks, double-hand drills, breaking ties on defense,
single-and double-leg attacks, tosses, and special moves. On the
Mat teaches techniques from the top and bottom position,
including arm bars, near wrists, arm and leg turks, sit-backs and
sit-outs, rolls and granbys, hip heists, counters and pins,
switches and stand-ups, standing rolls, and clearing legs and
ankles.
Throughout this action-packed DVD, Gable guides viewers through
each technique demonstration, then shows how small adjustments of
those techniques can give wrestlers the winning edge. The result
is easy-to-access, precise, top-notch demonstrations and detailed
instructions on attacking, countering, and adjusting to dominate
a match--all presented in the straight-shooting and motivating
Gable style. Previously released as a two-tape video series, this
DVD includes a bonus feature of Gable discussing leadership and
coaching style, focus and motivation techniques, discipline,
handling distractions, and what it takes for a wrestler to
succeed at the elite level.

About the Actor
---------------
Dan Gable's career accomplishments are etched in
wrestling lore, from his 1972 unscored-on Olympic gold-medal
performance on the mat to his record-setting 15 NCAA titles as
wrestling coach (a mark unequaled in wrestling history). He
became one of the few former dominant athletes in a sport who is
equally dominant as a coach, producing 152 All-Americans and 45
NCAA champions at the University of Iowa. He also coached the
1980, 1984, and 2000 U.S. Olympic wrestling squads.
Gable still coaches elite wrestlers while working as an assistant
athletic director at Iowa and maintaining a busy speaking
schedule. Recently he was selected by President George W. Bush to
serve on the President's Council on Physical Fitness.
In 2006, the greatest wrestler/coach in history returned to the
University of Iowa wrestling staff as an assistant to one of his
former wrestlers/assistants, Coach Tom Brands.
