<p>To the charging-in wrestling, is that each one is the first, you should not only use charging-in,<ref>''Zulauffen</ref> rather you are trying and hunting the body-wrestling,<ref>''leibringen''</ref> and this take thus: When you are charging toward him, then fix your right arm over his left and throw him overhead, as selectively the Zettel says a thing twice in these techniques.</p>

Zulaufenden ringen ("Wrestling on the run") is an anonymous German wrestling manual from the early 16th century. The first known version appears in the MS Dresd.C.487, dated to 1504-1519. It is also included in a now-lost manuscript from 1539 which was documented by Karl Wassmannsdorff in 1870.[1] In both cases, these devices are preceded by a fragment of the second half of the treatise of Ott Jud, though there is no other evidence connecting them to Ott.

Treatise

Though the Dresden is older, the order of plays below follows the Wassmannsdorff as the more complete version.
