Staying in Shape

This almost goes without saying since wrestling is a physically demanding sport, but here are some ideas that hopefully simplify this for our wrestlers.

Great wrestling strength training ideas: https://www.youtube.com/user/ZEvenEsh/videos

The Keys are as follows:
  • Set a goal and be consistent (3x each week I will do _________ workout(s))
  • Ramp up your training in the pre-season once school starts in the Fall 
  • Carrying your training into the season a short in-home workout:

When does training make sense?
  • Spring --- to do some prep for spring wrestling tournaments
  • Summer --- to get more out of summer wrestling camp(s) by being in shape going before that camp
  • Fall --- to gain that mental edge as you get back on the mats
  • Winter --- to stay strong and sharp during the season by doing a little extra 

Simple In-Home Options

Here are things you can do at home --- with little or no equipment
  • Body weight training: Push-ups, Planks, Mountain Climbers, Burpees, Squat Jumps, etc.
  • Barbell workouts: curls, shoulder presses, lunges, etc.
  • Circuit Training --- Think of Coach Kam and modify for your own home as needed

Add Oomph to your In-Home Training

Spice up your in-home and body weight workouts. These challenging alternatives help build muscles you need in wrestling don't break the bank or don't have any cost at all. These are just examples to show that you can train very hard with little to no equipment. Find your own ideas and share with your coaches and teammates:
