Wrestling is really awesome if your trying to loose weight. I lost 3 pounds in one week and 7 pounds all together on my high school team before I got taken out. And no it wasnt because I got kicked out because Im fat. It was because my parents wanted me to "Focus more on school and not get hurt".

Its still a really badass sport. Even though I really hurt my shoulder blade from it.

It also relies alot on your arms strength when you are in the down position or top position. Especially if your on the bottom. You really are going to want to be able to get the hell out of that position and/or reverse it for a point. And if you get out (Its an escape) you get 2 points. So it feels really good not only physically by emotionally as well when you get those points.

You also (at practice) do alot of running. So yeah you better be good at that and hope you dont have an asthsma attack. The minimum we did was 55 sprints accross the gym. It sucks ass at the time but it actually really helps.
