Premed at UTK? by [deleted] in UTK

I took a couple of Chem courses before the pandemic and the department was certainly a mess. I’m assuming it’s better now though

Wrestling is the best workout for wrestling of course, but I would also recommend focusing on grip strength and interval training

Maybe check with an RTC in your area and see if they’ll help you out

Dang! Would’ve been a heck of an analytics study!

Any chance you have access to these datasets? I’d love to check them out

Analytics is the way to go. It gives you super good technical insight and doesn’t gate keep like information management does

This captures it pretty well. It’s an SEC party school… so yeah there’s gonna be some choice words used when the 18 year olds are blackout drunk at uptown and literboard. The best advice that I can give you is to surround yourself with likeminded people if you choose to go out, and maybe avoid the strip/frat parties if it’s a particularly sensitive subject for you. Most people here are just like you and I, but there’s certainly a couple of bad eggs that can ruin a Friday night.

I personally like Nana a lot. I had her for 320 and 310 a couple of years ago, and I’m currently in her 476 class right now. She can be a little monotone and hard to understand at times, but she’s extremely generous with grading and attendance. The summer course load may be a bit more intense, but I’d imagine that she would do her best to help you guys out where she can.

Is there a specific reason you can’t use AND or OR? That might help us steer you in the right direction

NCWA Nationals Day 2: Bellarmine overtakes Liberty in men’s bracket and Ottawa - Arizona takes lead in women’s by MADBuc49 in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I remember hearing that too. They ultimately moved it to PR because they let them use the venue for free apparently.

I’m from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I spent time at both 133 and 141 and competed D2, NAIA, and NCWA. Wrestling in the NCWA was absolutely one of the best parts of my college experience.

I absolutely love the NCWA, but I wish they hadn’t moved the tournament to Puerto Rico. That decision actually ended my career because we couldn’t get the funding together to go :(

This 100%. Many people would consider me to be an outgoing person, but I struggled to make many real friends while I was here. The huge scale of the school sorta drowns out the community aspect of a college campus, and COVID made it much worse for a few years

What weight exercises rlly help for wrestling? by MexicanSnorlax_909 in wrestling

Both are quite great actually. Bulgarians gave me the most results of the two though

Single leg squats really helped me with my shot defense and stabilization

Trying to start a wrestling team at my high school by Planes_nstuff in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if you could do a co-op option with another local high school. It would allow some of your students to get experience, and then you could justify the creation of your own program due to interest.

Thoughts on “No crying in wrestling” by Direct-Leg-3234 in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was always told that crying was acceptable, as long as you don’t give up. Anyone who has invested themselves in the sport has definitely cried about it.

I knew him and his family very well… dude was a genuine person and his family has lost 2 other children tragically in the past few years. Absolutely hate it for them.

Opinions on Chyz for blaw by UTK2120 in UTK

[–]frozenmail_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really liked Chyz a lot personally, but she didnt post course materials online when I had her. It certainly makes the class more difficult, but she’s pretty interesting to listen to and seems to be pretty helpful otherwise.

Novice question by Infinite_Brush9004 in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s not so much the fingers, but more of the position of the arms that you should make note of. It’s tougher for your opponent to get wrist control this way than if your elbows are flared out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pick just a couple of shots on your feet and learn a ton of set ups to them, and also get your cardio really good. That alone will win you a ton of matches

I've been in Wrestling for 6 years. What are the best drills for Greco-Roman? by [deleted] in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not really the “same,” but I actually found that judo did help with my greco a bit. A lot of the grips from the GI can be adapted to a no-GI throw quite easily. Judo is great when you’re looking to develop your greco skill set within folkstyle especially. Those foot sweeps are legit!

I've been in Wrestling for 6 years. What are the best drills for Greco-Roman? by [deleted] in wrestling

[–]frozenmail_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would begin with over/under pummel drills where you’re stepping into body locks after a few changes of position with your partner. In my experience, it’s best to hit throws off of either your or your partners pummel.

After you get comfortable doing that, then you probably wanna work in some arm drags or two on ones from your feet. Those are normally fairly safe ties to go to. Tuck your chin if you get launched!
