double leg
Both legs attacked
A double leg is a wrestling takedown where the attacker shoots in low, wrapping both arms around the opponent's legs to drive them to the ground: He hit a clean double leg and took top position.
The technique is fundamental in folkstyle, freestyle, and Greco-Roman wrestling, and has become a staple in mixed martial arts.
Often shortened to just double: She's dangerous with her double.
