99% of athlete's offering tutorials, do so with an opponent that offers no resistance. This wrestling tutorial has an opponent, offering resistance...and the tutor out on the pressure, shows skill, strength and a far more realistic situation. This is outstanding
Your timing or your positioning is off. Unless you're not getting enough rotation in the process. As a beginner, Best time to hit a lateral in my opinion is when your opponent is coming up. (Ex: Shot, Far Knee Pick.)
Manjot Uppal If you arent tight such as deep inside over hook....it would definitely back fire Part of the truck to this move is you need to have your opponent tense so it’s best set up with an aggressive over hook from the tie up and I’m talking aggressive! Try to break his upper Lims type of tight. Make him get tight himself so you follow with an equally aggressive drive like a fullback would and then it’s all about foot work cuz you gotta place your feet from going a square up tie up to a cross tie up. Sorta like if would wanna knee trip. If you can knee trip then just finish that but they usually wanna square up again and when they do!!!! You do!!!! That’s when you cross hips almost like a head and arm but with the overhook instead!! It’s all the set up . Set the tempo!
This throw is all about timing and turning. Opponent must be positioned forward and you must turn, turn, turn; until they clear you and you are on top.
I hit this move twice in states AAU cadet. Guy faked cried Shoulder was in pain. But he was already on his back. Both times calling injury timeout. I didn't know how to defend leg riding then. I ended up loosing the match 14-15 hurt like hell.
Thank you so much i'm a freshmen in highschool i just started wtrestling and i am about to be in my first match your videos are saving my life the coach is really hard on me and i'm way out of shape the really help thank you
I got my lil bro to join wrestling, & I wanna help him out as much as possible & I came across your videos.. I have to say this instructional videos are great, I mean clear, easy to follow, step by step, in slowmotion, very professional!! Thank You!! for your time, effort & love for the sport.. Freaking awesome!!
I love having wrestling in my background. The lat drop is a great tool. More importantly is showing that all great throws in direction "x" come from faking/feigning a move in direction "y". I'm pleased you are out here showing the proper way to set up someone's momentum
Teaching some of my more advanced grade school kids this. They always got stuck on their back if they didn’t follow completely through with the underhook. Love the different perspectives and setups for this move. Great video! Thanks👍🏻
Been hitting this move consistently in my MMA class lately and wondering what other throws are available from that deep overhook position. Seems like when we clinch up I end up in that over/under position a lot when transitioning and just looking for other options available. Thanks! Btw, awesome vids! Learning a lot!
notice the arm across the back. Two different positions if the arm of your is up on the shoulder. Kolat is the best thing going on the internet right now. I watch and learn from him and coach against him in the NCAA
I love using submission wrestling against BJJ, but whenever I pressure into them, they just sit down. I don't think I get a lot of lat drop opportunities, but it's still a good one to know, and I love all the small but important details here!
I was down 6-0, got my nose broke from top at start of second, blew the blood out, coach ran tape around my head, a few lateral drops to near falls and i won. Greatest match i was ever in.
He forgot the most important part and I teach this to my son when I work throws with him. YOU MUST POST ARM OUT AS SOON AS YOU HIT THE DROP BEFORE HIS BACK HITS THE MAT!!!!!! I lost 3 of the biggest matches ever back in the 90s after I threw really good guys and would have beaten them with no time left all 3 times but I did not post arm and the rolled right through. It is very very easy to roll through with all the power hitting the mat all they have to do is roll with the momentum.
Jason Voorhees look at how hip heavy mr. Kolat is when he hits side control.. it's extremely hard to roll somebody that hip heavy.. he also has a deep under hook preventing him from getting rolled.. posting your hand out does not make sense in this situation.. but if posting your hand works for you then keep doing it
The thing you need to remember is he was talking about pressure and that’s very very important. Another thing is timing sometimes you are not using the timing properly and that’s why you’ll have a hard time even if you have the pressure that you need and if you can work on your timing on different take downs that’s one way to be unstoppable, my dad always taught me said you need one take down one escape and one pin over the years. I’ve learned lots I’ll tell you what…that’s all you need.
@@xgusto1235 What was the question though? Unless you meant to put a question mark in your reply. I didn't get too far into wrestling or mma that I wanted to because real life priorities outside my training took me away from it. Maybe if I ever get time to get back into it but I'm 45 now and that's too old to compete.
I use this move all the time I have a tournament this weekend and it catches them off guard because not a lot of people I know it. so to me its very useful thanks
A big move for me is the bear hug and my coach taught me that if your opponent doesn't straighten his back out enough for you to finish the bear hug, you use a body lock for a lateral drop another he taught was when you set up your over under tie up you take a half shot up in to your opponent, I'm just wondering if your familiar with these techniques
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVE! it can be used in bjj as well and make it to full mount ]the key is having the opponent pressure in if they give you the pressure they are asking to be thrown
One of the most important aspects of the LD is stepping in between your opponent’s feet. If your feet are wrong so will be LD. Pay attention to his footwork as he throws.
i watch this every time i train...and apply it in training...i used this in grappling matches...works 90% of my attempts...it would only work if you push the guy to the side, hold his hand, put your right foot deep between his feet and bridge up like in jujitsu...no strength needed and his land is not high, no need to carry him, just turn your body...bam!!! tell me if it doesn't work...
No, they are different skills. Lateral Drop uses a partial back arch and turn. Hip Toss uses a back step technique with a pivot to bring your hips through and throw your opponent over your hip. Hip Toss Example: th-cam.com/video/d4x2c_4mF1Y/w-d-xo.html
Kid from my team, 2x IL high school state runner up and NCAA DIV 1 wrestler Jeremy Castro use to use this so much it was his nick name. He even had it as his screen name for Illinois mat men. Personally, I was a fireman's carry thrower.
When I do this move I'm still trying to learn to spin from falling at the moment because I'm doing it way to early. This move is good to know, it's gotten me some takedowns
Hey Cary. Great stuff! Thanks a lot. I'm primarily a BJJ player so forgive me if this is a stupid question, but what situation would determine when you would want to use a lateral spin vs a lateral drop? It seems in the lateral spin you're first crossing the leg on the side of your under hook to the opposite side of your opponents body, whereas in the drop you just go right into the throw with a little more of a bridge. Thanks a lot.
It just depends on what tie-ups you are using or your opponent is trying to use and the kind of pressure you are receiving from your opponent. If you are good at pummeling and end up in the over under position and you feel your opponent is vulnerable because he is overreacting by pushing or leaning too much than the lateral drop is probably there. Likewise, if you can't get an under hook but can get a hold of a Russian arm tie and you can control your opponent with it and feel the pressure is there than you take the lateral spin.
+Jordan Samuel Lutsky big wrestler white belt here you can use this to throw to a full mount and usually since im a lefty that arm is just hanging for an americana/keylock
Use to be able to hit this move back in HS. But now I can't... Then I find this video. Can't wait to try it at the gym and see if I can't return to my former glory lol.
Im an ER doctor. Hit a lateral drop on violent guys we had in the ER on a couple of occasions in the past year. Security and staff know that when i get hands on to get out of the way now...
Me too, it would it helped me so much. I guess still can, because I never finish my last 4 credits in college. I need to go back & get it done. TH-cam is also good for grappling & BJJ.
This seems a lot like a Judo throw. Do they have something like it in Judo, or is it a pure wrestling techinque? I really like the way it uses the opponent's momentum against them.
@realmmj82 I'm not in mma or anything so I don't know what it's like with a punch being thrown, but you don't need to handle the wrist, you can just break the distance and clench, pummel in etc. You can also get here from a failed takedown attempt, shoot on the legs and just pop up into a pummeling position.
Wrestled my first match ever yesterday. Used this move and pinned him in 14 seconds. Thanks Kolat!

I can't believe how much our way of speaking has changed in just 14 years since this video came out.
Is it speaking or wrestling?
@@KOLATCOM Speaking. And I mean it in a good way. You speak coherently and your vernacular isn't full of weird zoomerisms.

It is very very easy to roll through with all the power hitting the mat all they have to do is roll with the momentum.
in this vid it seems he's doing the same thing just instead of posting his arm he's pressuring his hips down hard to stop the roll
To be fair, this is a demonstration of the throw itself, *not* what can be performed from side control.
It's fricking Cary Kolat, he's not forgetting anything
Jason Voorhees look at how hip heavy mr. Kolat is when he hits side control.. it's extremely hard to roll somebody that hip heavy.. he also has a deep under hook preventing him from getting rolled.. posting your hand out does not make sense in this situation.. but if posting your hand works for you then keep doing it
OK now that that is taken care of. What can we do about getting those matches back for me?
I use this move every wrestling championship I go to and it always works!
these videos are pretty cool. well explained and specifically demonstrated.
Have a buddy who wrestled at 285 was ranked #1 In state loved this move
First video of watched and its great.
Simple, easy to follow and great demonstration.

The thing you need to remember is he was talking about pressure and that’s very very important. Another thing is timing sometimes you are not using the timing properly and that’s why you’ll have a hard time even if you have the pressure that you need and if you can work on your timing on different take downs that’s one way to be unstoppable, my dad always taught me said you need one take down one escape and one pin over the years.

Did this in MMA training once. Guy thought he took me down and face he made when he realized he was on his back was priceless.
Made possible by this video this is my go-to. Major confidence booster
this is a great move to use in jiujitsu a well, such an advantage to landing in side control with that arm and headlock.

The lateral drop is such a beautiful move
agreed
Cary, your videos are incredibly valuable for advancing wrestlers at all skill levels. Is a lateral drop and hip toss the same thing?
No, they are different skills. Lateral Drop uses a partial back arch and turn. Hip Toss uses a back step technique with a pivot to bring your hips through and throw your opponent over your hip.

thats not a lateral drop. THATS A LATERAL BOMB!!!!!!
