Toe touches
Toe touches is drill where you and a partner stand in the 6 foot, by 6 foot (practice) wrestling circle and continuously lunge forward to try and touch their toes. Everytime you touch the opponents toe it counts for a point. Your opponent may try and avoid you to simulate a live wrestling match.
The toe touches drill enhances the muscles and movement used to perform the low single leg takedown.
Lunges
To perform lunges step forward with one foot and back with the other, than stand back to the starting position. Then step forward with the opposite foot.
This drill will increase muscle strength and endurance to enhance performance of the low single.
Other ways to drill the low single:
To drill the low single, practice your ability to squat low to the ground by doing up-downs. Also practice stepping and lunging forward to a designated target. This will increase your ability to grab your opponents leg during a match situation. In the weight room the exercise 'squats' will increase your strength in leg muscles.
