In this video we break down the absolute basics of 1-on-1 defense so you stop getting turned and stay in control of the attacker.
You’ll learn:
How to keep your hips up and strong the entire time
How to use your right arm to control a right-handed attacker’s left arm
How to use your free arm on the elbow, not on the ball
Why reaching for the ball gets you turned, and how to make the attacker drop it instead
This is a short, simple drill you can use in almost every practice. Master this first, and all the other defensive skills will be much easier to build on top.
