Olympic champion David TAYLOR (USA) took viewers on a captivating journey through a day in his life as a wrestler - from his intense training regime to his life outside the wrestling hall.
At 11:05, Taylor arrived at ‘K2 Roots’, a business he runs with his wife Kendra in State College, PA since 2017. Taylor dropped in K2 Roots for juice, coffee and to help behind the counter.
Taylor arrived at Penn State University for practice which began at 13:30. He focused on working through some positions, going through drills while wrestling with four-time world champion Kyle DAKE (USA).
The Penn State hall had seven current and former world and Olympic medalists practicing simultaneously. This includes Taylor, Dake, Kyle SNYDER (USA), Thomas GILMAN (USA), Jake VARNER (USA), Cael SANDERSON (USA) and Geno PETRIASHVILI (GEO).
After practice, at 17:50, Taylor headed home for his birthday party.
After cutting the birthday cake cut, Dake and Taylor moved downstairs to play a game of pool. He explained his brotherly relationship with Dake and his family as they both chase Olympic glory.
For the record, Dake won the pool game.
The day is not done yet as Taylor leaves for the M2 Training Center in State College at 19:10. It was created by Taylor to help wrestlers learn and achieve their goals on and off the mat. The curriculum, technique, and training are all based on what Taylor has done in the past and what he is doing today as he pursues his international wrestling goals.
He turned coach for young wrestlers, pushing them for practice and techniques like finishing and defending leg attacks.
Taylor is a world and Olympic champion but there’s a lot of behind-the-scenes which he shares in the video.

I’m seriously so happy that David and Kyle work together like this. So good to see once rivals to training partner
Their dads introduced eachother when they were young so they also trained a bit in their youth before college which makes it even cooler
Bro I’m literally getting chills just watching this like this room is full of the greatest wrestlers in the world
There's a 3-time D1 AA, and he's the LEAST experienced guy in the room. That's insane.
A varsity high school wrestler would just get murdered in that room. He'd be smashed into a ball and kicked around like soccer.
@@777Skeptic this sport is so great I love it even tho I wasn’t fully all in to compete anymore after high school I still watch it to this day it’s rlly a beautiful thing to watch and learn
@@777Skeptic dude, a higshscool state champ would get murdered, much less a varsity wrestler
@@ladev91 You're absolutely right. Which really puts into perspective how insane that room is.
David Taylor represents the sport of wrestling better than anyone else
Great work UWW team!
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
No disrespect to Iran, Cuba, or Russia but I’d walk into the gates of hell with that room at State College. The collection of talent in PA is second to none.
All due respect to Penn, but russia has produced more champs, multi oly, and world champs, that would take us a dozen Olympics to even catch up too them
Aren’t they still banned for all the doping?
@@saljablo2767 damn I actually don’t know, but we still not catching up to them lol
@@Arminsaf2 guess you missed the subtle point.
Well said
Wish you all the best Champ ! From Germany 🇩🇪 and Iran 🇮🇷
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
@@-clipz-
Amen
آمین
I love what United world wrestling has done to spread wrestling with amazing content like this
imagine saying Kyle Dake will be in the penn state training room in like 2011
Wish you the best from Iran 🇮🇷
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
Americans, we love Iranians. Both our Governments SUCK. We love you!!!!
@@-clipz- they're Muslim brother. They have a differ deity.
@@DeleteLawz1984 that’s fine I’m just spreading mine ❤️
@@DeleteLawz1984 It's ok. Jesus is prophet in Islam, we love Issa (his Semetic name). Ameen.
2:47 Roman Bravo-Young with that Dominick Cruz footwork.
We might as well just move the Olympic training center to State College... NLC is the place to be for international wrestling. Lol. Pretty awesome to see them having fun at practice.
That Penn room is crazy! Wow, the talent in there!
Really great content! Thank you!
Insane talent concentration in that room.
Gilman, KD, DT, and Snyder under the same roof is insane
So excited to see all these young kids that are training under DT soon wrestle on the international arenas
I wish I had that type off opportunity’s here where I live no wonder that PA has the best wrestling
Where are you?
@@opaca512 New Mexico
Лучшая борьба в Дагестане
А так Тейлор Дейк и Снайдер очень хорошие борцы на мировой арене
@@justlearning6371That being said man - work with what you have. I had crappy jigsaw mats and would just rep sprawls and drop steps 100s and got so fast I got really good. Use every resource you have and when you win more you’ll get access to better resources.
The more you use what you have the more you get to use
What a great guy, cannot love this video enough
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
one of the legends like hassan yazdani the iranian wrestler
cant wait to see the final between them❤
Good lucks for all you champs, the honor of great nation of the America
Damn the talent!
this is awesome
Wow Geno is HUGE makes Snyder and Taylor look like Kids- and at that size he can move
great guy
Нельзя не уважать Дэвида! Невероятная сила воли, то как он вернулся после нокдауна от Куруглиева на мире и как он потом выиграл его, не каждый боксер на такое способен
More content like this video pls
Logistical questions for those kids coming directly from HS practice to m2, are they showering or using defense soap wipes in between?
That room!!!
DT is my favorite penn state wrestler
We drove 4.5 hr round trip to Pinnacle 3 days a week..Detours I hate, and snow drift across the road sucked in a prius! Sometimes you had to turn around because the drift was 4 ft high..Always loaded up a shovel in the car..Other than that is was a great time with the boy.
David Taylor better be training hard, he has a hungry young Lion coming his way! Aaron Brooks!!
Yesss, he's the man! 🔥
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
Where is this location would like to roll with these fellas 😮
Do wrestlers cross train with other wrestling styles catch, Greco-Roman freestyle ?
Big respect from georgia(country)❤❤❤
00:50 jumps on the register lol imagine you order a juice and the cashier is the Olympic champ
All American 🇺🇸♥️
How many World and Olympic Champions can you fit in a few minutes of training video?
he is not just physically good, his mental preparation is so well!
imagine a gym that has Kyle dake, David and snyder
I wonder if Yianni will follow Dake down now that he is done with Cornell college wrestling.
Wondering that too.
❤️🇮🇷
NLWC is the new team foxcatcher
Prayers turn to God may everyone everywhere be blessed and healed and protected in Jesus name amen.
💙☘️💙
Imagine if an Adcc competitor spent time in that room.
M9 will be at Final X. It's time to circle the wagons and saddle up. We have had too long of a sabbatical. Let's Go Magic Man
The size difference Gilman hugging Geno.
That was David Taylor.
So glad that David hung the torn Olympic singlet
Just hasan yazdani❤best in the world
Incredible talent in that room.
I have to say I am annoyed to see that they invited Geno into their practice. That guy is a huge threat at heavyweight to Gable, and they are making him better. I know there is precedent for this type of thing, but it’s still not cool.
So you only train once a day? No way
🇦🇿🇹🇷❤️👍
первый
This rond in paris just HASAN YAZDANIIIII 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷
به گوشت آویز کن اسم حسن رو یره🇮🇷
Highly doubtful he beats Taylor after the adjustments Taylor made last match.
bravo bravo USA pharmasitc USA sport only dopingh!!!!
Your lazy
