2x World Medalist and NCAA Champion Vito Arujau breaks down one of the most important skills in wrestling: the down block into a reattack. Learn how to shut down an opponent’s shot using head-and-hands defense — and immediately flip the position in your favor. Vito shows how to read your opponent’s lead hand, replace your leg with your hand, and transition into arm drags, leg chases, or cross-block reattacks.

You’ll learn:

• How to shut down shots with the down block & cross block
• When to chase the leg or arm drag for the reattack
• Key positioning tips: head-hand timing, level changes, pivot angles
• How to turn solid defense into instant offense

This is high-level technique from one of the best wrestlers in the world!
