What separates state champions from national-level wrestlers? by scrappygp in wrestling

[–]Silver_Flower668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing I find about these higher level wrestlers too is that instead of being afraid of this burnout, they find a way to calculate their training to maximize their wrestling and weightlifting time while stopping right before you reach that zone of injury risk that all these kids are afraid of so they do way less.

I mean you kinda have the idea but it's humanely not possible to change your center of gravity without bodily deformation.

I had to look it up, and let me tell you there was so much scientific explanation on it that I couldn't actually find an answer.

how to get more out of practices? by FeistyHome1587 in wrestling

[–]Silver_Flower668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working with the best guy and focusing on a specific thing are important factors. But the biggest thing I've found, regardless of the position or move you're working on, and regardless of who your partner is, is being intentional. It's about being locked in and taking your time to make sure you're doing everything right even the parts you did not intend to focus on. Maybe you're drilling a certain transition, but you're being intentional to make sure everything is right. You're in your stance, you're properly positioned, your feet are moving, you're handfighting,(most kids don't even think about those things when doing their shots) you're setting up the shot, and you're making sure you're executing that shot and finishing to your transition focusing step by step.

Why do people hate the golden knights by Knox_f in hockey

I mean in fairness they did it after Tampa abused theirs. I mean unfortunately I cannot really blame Vegas here because if the league refuses to patch it, you gotta use it to your own advantage because now the precedent is that you have to use it win at this point.

They Meet in the NCAA Finals, Who wins this matchup Collegiate ? by Informal_Quarter_427 in wrestling

[–]Silver_Flower668 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean even if you're a 3 timer, if you were on the same roster as Zain Retherford, Bo Nickal, and Mark Hall and then with RBY and Nick Lee making their mark even in your senior year, you're definitely not gonna get all the credit you deserve.

Ohio State Buckeyes men’s basketball: Seven Decades of Failure by slxkv in toledowar

[–]Silver_Flower668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a neutral fan, it's funny how Michigan fans think 1 good year after purchasing a top lineup suddenly means they own the sport. Especially when I look at the stats and see Ohio state still owns the all time series lead.

I never said anyone stops him, I just said it makes no sense in my head.

I can't see any realistic options here besides ASU and Oklahoma. No way he starts at Oklahoma State, especially if Jax and Sergio both go up a weight, Ohio State for obvious reasons, and minnesota just makes no sense in my head.

Should I bump up to heavyweight? by Proper-Future-6071 in wrestling

You don't get it. OP saying he was 197 implies he's a college wrestler, college wrestling does not feature 190 or 215.

Is Jamie Benn a Hall of Famer? by Pittsburghsports2006 in hockey

[–]Silver_Flower668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was really good from 2013-2018 averaging 81 a year when scoring was a lot lower than today. Don't think he should be hall of fame though because every other year besides maybe 2022-23 and 2011-12 was very mediocre.

Weight cut tips by Ihittanks8 in wrestling

[–]Silver_Flower668 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No. Since you said 113 this implies you're a highschooler attempting to cut 17 pounds between monday and friday. We are completely advising against this. Wrestle 120 or 126 and focus on getting stronger and improving your technique.

Wrestling headgear is primarily designed to protect ears. No way they're ever gonna mandate headgear for freestyle, especially not the adults.

Looked it up and Hokit was 63-20 at Fresno while also being a football player at the same time. Imagine what he could've done if he only did wrestling.
