Jun 22, 2021 
by Corey Beasley
Nick Knowles put together a great video packed full of 13 partner drills that they use with their wrestlers.
These drills build a variety of strength and skills needed to compete on the mat.
'Hands on', sport specific strength that can be used by wrestlers, jiujitsu players, and other grapplers.
Appropriate interval periods can be anywhere from 30-60 seconds. A good place to start for unconditioned athlete would be a 1:4 work to rest ratio. However, I have seen some high caliber wrestlers perform these exercises for 30 minutes straight without a hint of rest.
