www.rugbyworld.com Rugby Wrestling Drills

Tackling, rucking, mauling and so on use concentric and eccentric actions and varied movement patterns all at once unlike traditional gym exercises. Many of the gym based exercises are very good at developing raw strength and power but wrestling transfers that adaptation into a functional, rugby specific application and is good fun!

i play rugby and I didnt understand what the floor to stand one was about, wat it did and what the people doing it have to do?

@lrobert98 it is just a non specific wrestling drill - the one lying on his back has to get up to his feet and the one standing has to prevent him getting to his feet.

Wrestling is a vital part of rugby, be it union or league. Teaching good technique is vital too. Agility warm ups can also be fun.
