[ QUOTE ]
For the record I wrestled in HS. You only have a 25 pound weight advantage while being 5 inches taller. I am willing to bet that your opponent is stronger than you where it counts eg core, hips, and leg strength. He will be much harder to take down than you because of his height and you will be a huge easy target for him. He will also, most likely, have your ass totally kicked when it comes to cardio. This is the most important aspect in wrestling aside from skill and 4 years of HS training will last through many years of slacking off. You are at a definate disadvantage but the best thing you can do now until the match is to train your cardio as much as you can. I wouldn't do this by jogging but instead do interval training and rope jumping. [/ QUOTE ] I can't get myself to believe this. This guy has been on a diet of Tyson processed chicken, soup (he says this is for his daily vegetables), potato chips, and beer for the last 2 years. He has not been doing any sort of athletic activities. I just can't buy this guy having more core and leg strength than me. There's also no way he has more endurance. I've also recently switched over to interval cardio training from standard even pace cardio. For the record: despite all this, I still feel like I'm a huge dog in this match. He's out of shape but he'll be better equiped to take me down. I think my strategy would be to just try to outlast him as long as I can and try to get him exhausted. |
