Suples dummies were the very first in a product line of world-class training devices created in 2004 by world-class athlete and coach, Ivan Ivanov. The Suples dummies were originally designed to take wrestling performance to a new level of excellence then later adapted to be used effectively in other sports like: Judo, MMA, Grappling, and yes- even American football! Training with Suples dummies is NOT like training with any ordinary dummy-- Suples dummies were expertly designed by Coach Ivanov through his own years of training and studying of athletes to ensure precision and functionality. The expert design of our Suples dummies was NOT created just to practice basic techniques or to sit passively in the corner of your practice room like all other dummies, but to actually IMPROVE & ADVANCE your skills by giving a realistic feel & response while training, which makes this entire Suples product-line of sure to be used in your daily practice and training routines to provide the best outcomes!
