If you're going to do a penetration step then you need to actually step and not just fall on your lead knee. Step with lead foot and drive with back foot through opponent. You do this to penetrate through your opponent, otherwise you'll get snapped down by any decent wrestler. Try it and it will dramatically improve your takedown.. This is a typical beginner error especially with BJJ guys trying to learn traditional wrestling takedowns.
I really like this instructional and the detail you mentioned completes it. I have been watching tape on wrestling greats Like Bruce Baumgartner and Stephen Neal. They definetly do a subtle shift back then foreward as they step and launch into their shot. For a split second they even pick their lead foot up slightly as they recoil back to explode. It makes all the difference in the world and its also alot of timing as to not blatantly telegraph their shot.
VERY True! I'm a relatively new 1 year white belt and wanted to improve my standing/takedown game to compliment my BJJ, I struggled with pen-step for so long and as you said I event got snapped down several times by ex-wrestlers. Thanks a ton, I'll try that next time I drill!
I did this throughout high school and my lead knee hurt by the end of every practice. 😂
@@redpepper313me aswell
What they don’t tell you is that your trail foot needs to be facing forward during that penetrating step not off to the side. Feels weird but it’s a must
Really useful, thank you
🤗👍🏻
Thanks for the tip brother!
🔥
My lead knee always feels like it's going to explode trying to do this. Why would that be? I'm 6'4 with very long legs if that makes it more difficult.
It could be because of your leg not being strenched out enough. Most moves wont work if your not flexible. But i might be wrong so dont take my word for it.
Nutrition?
@@abraham132100 wtf?🤣
@@RustyIsScared Colagen, and gelatin
@@abraham132100 Yeah its not about that bro. The guy is saying hes afraid of pulling his knee. The issue isnt how much protein the op is consuming lol.
Good job sir
🤗👍🏻
Nice technique sr ji
😀
Ohh my knee😫😫
I've been having an issue with planting my knee as opposed to the smooth motion I see being demonstrated. Is this just a mobility issue? Are there any stretches or exercises that I can use to remedy this?
@Dalton Swabb Thanks for the reply, I totally agree with the level change point. It's become a lot easier for me since I was able to make that connection over the last few months.
A great exercise for this would be duckwalks, start slow and smooth and the speed will come
So much harder that it looks!
Drilling is the key to get there!
“Give that a shot” i see what you did there😏

My right ankle is injured can I still learn wrestling? I can do the penetration step without issues over my left leg tho
You will always be injured in wrestling just gotta grind it out
@@CS-rw4es i cannot perform this movement with the right ankle
@@Salamaleikum80 just tough through it if you wanna wrestle because if you don’t you won’t be able to wrestle, this is the base to wrestling is shots.
Dunno if im doing this wrong but
My toes feel like they about to snap
My hip flexibility sucks for this
What is the purpose of the knee? Every video shows how to do it, but not why it's done.
What do you mean? You have to get low to take someone down
@@morenoh149 well that's not strictly true, but that's also not what I mean. I can get that low and move forward without putting my knee to the mat, so what is the knee for?
I've asked several different practitioners and coaches in real life since asking here, and got the following answers:
Several people said "I don't know"
A few people said "it allows you to cover more distance whilst low, acting like one leg has two feet"
And another said "it acts as a base, if you get sprawled at least one point of contact is on the floor and your foot/ankle is still free"
Just to cover distance really, its for if youre shooting from further out. dont need to fully touch the knee to mat if theyre close@@fromthegamethrone
i get mat burn on my knees as fck :-( but long shorts sucks imo
