I'm only cutting 5 lbs so I can wrestle at 195. It's been really tough being the lightest person in the 220 weight class.

[jojijoestar]

I’m a senior this year and I never did sports in my life and so I wanted to make this year a year to be proud of so I’m gonna do wrestling so thanks coach

[mycheesesteak]

I wish I had this knowledge back in the 70's. Thx for posting.

[argyriosglykis]

Thank you so much for this channel, as a wrestler this is one of the most important channels I follow. Thank you.

[nilsrpj]

Im an ex wrestler and gained 40 lbs since i graduated. Going to use this to get myself back in shape. Thank you

[multiverseproduction]

This helped so much! I gotta lose 20 pounds to be in my weight class lol, and this video has helped so much

[DustBunny-xdrz]

Looking to cut about 8 pound over the next 8 weeks for an upcoming tourney and this definitely helps💪🏻

[nametook]

I’m usually 160 and thanksgiving got me to 165 I have 2 days to cut this five lol let’s pray 😌

[dariusabron]

I use to cut like your brother I loss an extreme amount of muscle but my endurance was absolutely insane

[abbymuller]

I should be able to make my cut from 116 to 106 but damn my body is just not dropping the pounds so I’m looking at a ton of these wrestling weight loss videos so I can understand nutrition better and be strong while bringing my walking weight to about 109 hopefully.

[kingkia]

Me sitting here at 260 trying to be 220 at the end of the season 😂

And I also would appreciate if you share your opinion on heavy sandbags and barrels lifting&carrying for wrestlers. Back in 2007-2008 heavy sandbags (80-95kg) really improved my mat strength and endurance. I don't know why coaches don't include them in their training routines - it's cheap, functional and brutal.

[KevinGonzalez-enfd]

Holy shit I’ve been subconsciously doing refeeds, I always have a little more chicken and veggies every other 3 or 4 days

[youngsuit]

i have so much respect for wrestlers. i truly think it's the hardest sport in all of the academically-recognized sports. however, it seems extreme in a lot of aspects for these young people. we had people that were collegiate wrestlers that would join our rugby team when they decided it was enough and they would be insanely good rugby players but they would have randomly horrible things happen to their health like intestinal issues. i don't have the answer here to anything, just be careful please y'all!

"How To Cut Weight" Laughs in heavyweight .

[aideng]

I naturally weigh around 117 or 116 so I cut to 113 and I lose it in literally one practice I have no issue, but my teammates struggle unfortunately and I feel bad seeing my best friends suffering.

[alyssabarker]

I’m trying to cut weight because of pole vaulting I’m a 117 and I need to be 115 in 8 days

[ethanmoses]

I’m usually 170 but Im injured and have gained like 5 pounds and want to be 160 for the season
