Running the half nelson


some of my wrestlers are having trouble running the half, due to the fact when they start running half at a 45 degree angle to turn the the opponent, the opponent gets on their base and we fail to run the half. what do you suggest to keep the opponent down while half is being done.

Also, I have noticed if

Also, I have noticed if young kids don't hit the half with authority and pop it in, it will give their opponent time to build a base, if the half is just slipped in paused, and then driven over. As opposed to it being all one action.

off your knees

are your wrestlers on their knees when they run it? that is a major problem with young kids.
