Wrestling

Was wondering, what is the highschool wrestling season?

As in, when's it start, when's it end.

I thought it started the winter season and ended when spring started. But i really dunno. Always wished i took it though. Probably the most challanging sport you can take.

Wow.

:|

EDIT: Yeah uriel, I know we're in preseason right now, and I know it ends sometime spring, but I have no idea exactly when.

What?.

 

[sinkoman]

What?.

Just sit down and watch.

Don't hurt yourself.

EDIT: So as not to make a wasteful post, did you even go to highschool?

Hmm, I've never heard of a highschool wrestling season. So, meh.

I'd put swimming, running, bicycling, nordic skiing, rowing, and speed skating ahead of wrestling in terms of challenge. Wrestling takes muscular strength and skill. If you picked up the skills very fast you could become a good wrestler in a year or two. The sports listed above require years and years of high volume training to build up the fitness level required to compete at the international level as well as a high level of skill.

YEEHAW!

I think I found my perfect dessert diet:

Small cup of eggnog (about half a cup)
160 callories worth of cheese

Stripped down today after practice, and weighed in at 126. Yesterday I was at 131, but with clothes on, so about 129 probably.

Looks like a good dietary plan. Just eat one, and be done for the week

That is horribly opinionated. You can't judge somethings level of difficulty on your own, because it's just your frigging oppinion.

While you are correct that it is mainly strenght and skill, it's also mentally challenging, and is very tactical. Squared off with the guy, you can't expect to just overpower him. For example, you hand fight, try to get him concentrated on his arms, then when he's too bussy trying to get off the 2 on 1, or 1 on 1, then you swing around to his side for a left single, and maybe switch it off to a double.

Perhaps you are right, and maybe wrestling isn't as challenging as those sports, but I enjoy it, and it's the sport for me

Eggnog and cheese, yuck!

Anyway, mma I find much more interesting and challenging. Utilizing pressure points in combat makes things really interesting:
