The bike is also better option than running because you avoid the pounding on your joints. Wrestling is already hard on the musculoskeletal system.

Would really love a video about wrestling diet. What to eat and what to avoid while training and on match day and for tournaments.

Cross country has destroyed a lot of athleticism in a lot of wrestlers, but it does help keep the weight down.

Running is so fkn hard on your Use an elliptical! Or use a bike! Go swimming! Use weight machines!

Running is hard on your body when you are fat and out of shape.

Invest in a good pair of shoes. Hit the road and get fit.

A wrestler who runs 15-20 miles a week is not going to tear up his body.

Wow guys. How soft have we become.

Just keep listening to these anti run guys and we will continue to beat the crap out of you.

Are wind sprints good for wrestling bursts of energy?

Wrestlers dont fuckin need it to run...sprints only, sparring end .

Jump rope on a padded surface way better then bike talk about twitch.

Not a wrestler, but a sstate level boxer in my country

Running is necessary.. But you should get your cardio work mostly from yohr fight training...

I run for good lungs and i have noticed anything more than 2 miles is just ppromoting weight loss😂 .. Run 2 miles but run it hard... Maybe 3 miles.. Thats it.. No need to do 6 miles..that will take both time and youre just losing weight at that point 😅

And yet, most of the most successful international programs are still running, many of them daily. Hills and stairs are especially popular in both wrestling and Judo. I'd pick running hills over the assault bike any day, as long as we are talking about a healthy athlete.

Uhhh, is that really the whole discussion?

Not good advice. Kyle Dake has a famous workout routine but is also recognized as being one of the slowest wrestlers to ever win a match.
