freestyle wrestling techniques

Freestyle wrestling techniques involve controlling an opponent through movements like takedowns, which bring them to the mat, and hold-downs, which keep them pinned. Wrestlers use grips, body positioning, and leverage to execute moves such as leg trips, throws, and arm rides. The goal is to gain points for successful attacks, maintain control, and immobilize the opponent for a pin. Techniques require agility, strength, and strategy, emphasizing balance and timing, to outmaneuver and score against an opponent within the rules.
