4. Execute a reverse push drag maneuver as you force the opponent’s arms forward, down, and back toward you to whip his body so that he ends up almost horizontal to the ground, face upward.
5. With your opponent about to fall to the ground, continue to pull the opponent toward you as you deliver a right knee kick to his upper spine.
