In wrestling and grappling, snapdowns are used quite often. This movement lowers your opponent’s head level and brings him into a front headlock. Wrestlers can easily put their opponents on the ground from the front headlock position and secure points. Additionally, the front headlock is a great position to attack with various chokes in submission grappling. Because of this, many opponents will try to avoid this scenario, and they will always give a reaction to snapdowns. These reactions can often open them up for different attacks, such as double legs.
