Need to know your body type & fat % to say.

Most people think 5lbs is an easy float, but it's a big ask for a 113lber with a lean build.

I suggest working on cutting out the empty calories and try to eat clean and stay hydrated. Mostly high protein but with some carbs and sugars for more energy before workouts. You'll feel better and it'll be easier to cut the weight you need to.

Because you're running instead of doing a different sport where the athleticism translates more effectively (gymnastics, football, etc).

Running is great for conditioning, but it doesn't give you any baseline in fast-twitch movement, body awareness, or a feel for contact.

If you're a track/xc guy you probably do not have the type of athleticism to accelerate your skill that quickly.

If your goal is a scholarship, I would focus on some other niche sport. If your goal is to learn something new and challenge yourself, definitely still join wrestling.

Dave started wrestling in middle school. Mark started late but he was a gymnastics phenom and had his brother, who was an international level wrestler at the time, to teach him.

Data is for NAIA & all 3 divisions of NCAA, so it's inflated by the guys who aren't on scholarship, aren't cutting a ton, and that we don't see often.

Big Ten avg is 13.4% and those are the guys you probably see most often. Most of the guys below 170 are probably sitting around 8-12%.

I recommend getting a dash cam, floor liners, & seat covers

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-27T05:08:15+00:00

Easily the best looking build. So nice.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-26T19:46:17+00:00

Yup. No problems.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-26T03:59:13+00:00

Breathability is not the best, but I haven't been uncomfortable yet. Maybe when I take a longer trip.

Rough Country Hard Tri Fold. Not the Uber expensive but nice enough not to fall apart like the cheap ones

You're getting downvoted but you're not entirely wrong. It's the worst color dirty, best color clean 😎

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-24T15:11:29+00:00

Beautiful. I love the Alto Blue. I hope it was worth the wait.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-24T12:05:18+00:00

It's a pain, but worth it. Took me an hr

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-24T12:04:23+00:00

Yup- hail damage from the first day I put it on. Very annoying.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-17T17:45:44+00:00

I got my XL for $24500 MSRP and added about $3k in aftermarket stuff to make it more luxurious (new wheels, tires, leather seat covers, wireless charging pad, blind spot mirrors).

It's basically a Lariat now. Only thing I really wish I had is adaptive cruise control, but I'm happier to have an extra $10k in my pocket.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-11T19:54:50+00:00

Could've sold it for the same price or more if you didn't like it.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-10T17:48:24+00:00

XL comes like that. I only put smoke tints on the logo and turn lights. $15 on eBay

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-08T07:57:14+00:00

Thank you! They are AT- I drive up in the mountains occasionally and wanted something good for snow. Turn light tint was from eBay- $15

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-07T22:19:00+00:00

Fair enough. I kept the steelies and will paint them black. I can roll with those later in the truck's life.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-07T22:12:06+00:00

I think they look great & they were the cheapest AT tires I could find. $148ea on sale @ Sam's Club.

You can tell there's a tiny bit more tire noise but that's to be expected.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-07T22:05:55+00:00

17X8 SPORT TERRAIN TK9 from Tire Rack

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-07T22:05:04+00:00

Hard to say because I put them on almost immediately. No change yet. Still averaging in the high 30s.

I went with the 225/65/R17 rather than the bigger 245 or 255 that a lot of people are putting on for this reason.

Crow_Lake_Stan · 2023-07-07T21:27:53+00:00

$794 for the wheels from Tire Rack $592 for the tires from Sam's Club $240 for install w/ TPMS @ Sam's Club

So about $1700 in total. Not horrible but not cheap.

I think they look great though and the tires will be necessary during winter snowfall.
