Will this be enough conditioning?

Posted at: 2015-05-07 
You have asked this question multiple times.

Here is my response from 3 days ago.

Not.

There is a thing called over-training. Your body will breakdown and not have what it needs to rebuild. You can do all of the exercises in the world and that will not prevent you from losing in wresting. None of the things you listed will make you good at wrestling.

In order to be good at wrestling you must at some point start wresting. While it is admirable that you want to go undefeated. It is unlikely. You will like face someone that is more skilled and have more experience than you do. It is okay to lose, but you should learn to learn from the losses. If you don't learn from them it was all in vain.

You have asked this the other day. Why ask this question again?

You are lacking in the back exercises. You need to work your lower back since you do so many situps. You also need to do shoulder work as well.

All wrestlers that are the great ones have done the wrestler bridge and pull ups. If i was your age again and in wrestling i would forget the curls. I would substitute it with pull ups. It works the lats and the biceps. You need them for pulling. You also need to work the shoulders do some headstand, handstands start them with time than add movement to the exercises.

You need to look for some books and exercises for wrestlers.

You also need to do the spineand lower back. The best exercise still to date is the bridge (wrestlers bridge), it also works the neck. Kurt Angle was a olympic wrestler long before he went WWE. He has a 20" neck and is total bad ***.

Here is a good bodyweight routine

push up

pull up

deep knee bend (squat)

handstand

leg raises

bridge

Those exercises are laidout by several wrestlers i used to train with in high school 2 of which were state champs in high school and 1 was undefeated his junior year. I had a great wrestling coach who at 1 time was on the U.S. olympic team.

Mainly you need to work with the bridge it strengthening the back as well as making it flexible.

Do you want to be good, or do you want to be great?

You need to run more. I ran cross country my first year of varsity wrestling which was my sophomore year. I ran 8 miles everyday and that was just hardly enough. It doesn't matter how strong you are, trust me. I beat a state champion that was 30lbs more than me my senior year. So what you need to do is wrestle and run. Don't waste your time with benching like high school kids like to do lol, it wont help.

Body building doesn't hold a candle to wrestling skills.

The best muscle tone in the world won't mean squat if you can't use those muscles to get out of situations...

You had better incorporate some situational training and drills into your workouts.

I want to be a top wrestler in my high school. I have little to no wrestling experience. I'm 150 pounds, 5'9 , and 15 years old going into 10th grade. We had a summer wrestling program but its almost over because summer is almost over but I'm going to join a week before it does. I couldnt do the summer program because I've been traveling. I have been doing a home workout. Is this enough conditioning because I want to be on top.

400 situps

100 pushups

100 curls with 30 pound

200 squats

100 bench dips

Run 3 miles

I do this everyday. My access to weights is little to none. I do four circuits of these. Each circuit consists of 100 situps, 25 pushups, 25 curls, 50 squats, and 25 dips then I rest as long as i feel i should. Should I increase the number of reps or do something else to become a top wrestler
