      When a guy doesn't wear any knee sleeves, get a look at his knees. If there's no hair watch your legs, he shoots both sides and isn't scared of mat burn. If there's hair, stay out of upper body, he's a thrower and isn't worried about mat burn at all.

    None of this matters in the long run. Never underestimate your opponent. Some months ago I was in a high school wrestling tournament, and, even though I was holding up, the guy was slightly better than me. During the second period, after a short scramble, he put me on my back, but I managed to roll him over to his back, immediately after he did that too, but the momentum helped me roll him on his back, I ran my feet towards his head, and I secured the pin, almost out of the mat

    In defense of double kneepads, some people (myself included) really do need them. I would shot leading with either leg and the issue wasn't the mat burn. The problem was the impact. I had chronic runner's knee for years before I even stepped on the mat, then after just the first month of practices I could shoot more than a handful of times without immense pain. While I could have just focused on one side during a match, that was a no-go during practice since we all had to drill with both legs.

Ankle socks(not all the time but occasionally) singlet as low as i could although not ever lower than my knees and I didn't warm up too much i mean i would warm up before with my team and for a match or two before me but not much more than that.

    What is funny is these are all true most of the time. But if you know that, you can use this to play mind games with your opponents. I wore two knee pads, always. I would sometimes wear ankle socks, soccer socks, high socks, or no show socks. At tournaments I would rarely warm up.I would usually sit next to my opponent while they were warming up and I would try to look as disinterested in wrestling as humanly possible. I won the vast majority of my matches. They think you're trash until your first match, then after you trounce some known guy, you can only mess with newbs who you were going to brutalize anyway. You do this at one tournament and you become known, immediately. Especially if you consistently take home hardware.

    I used to yank my singlet down when I first started cause I was used to long basketball shorts since middle school. Then I actually just let it go high cause I saw my favorite Stanford wrestlers in hs wearing it high. The high look just started looking more badass.
    In terms of warm ups, I need my neck stretches at the very least, or else imma be sore af.
    I used asics headgear in hs. It was Velcro and cheap from big 5 but it wasn't the old school model. But it was comfortable for everyday practice.
    I needed double knee pads tho. I shoot with my left but also i tore my ACL on my right leg. Before surgery, it was there to defend my leg. After, it was there to hide the surgery scar cause any injuries are green lights for dirty wrestlers.

    I wear my Singlet High and Socks High. I had custom made socks that my school gave me. I also wore Ankle Braces on both Ankles because I had a lot of Ankle injuries during my high school wrestling Career.

    My brother Ed, who wrestled for Canon Mac in the 60s, would give the fish handshake once or twice a season to an opponent he never saw before. He would act wimpy, then hit the guy with a blast double when the whistle blew. The surprised look on the opponent was always comical. So beware - the newbie action may be a psych job. good stuff guys

      🤣 That's hilarious. Mind games are huge in wrestling. We had a guy on our team who shook hands with his left hand to throw guys off. And it worked. Btw, Brendan and I both wrestled for Canon-McMillan, so it's great to have you watching. Thanks for the support!

      That was my M.O. as well. At weigh-ins, roll my shoulders forward to look like I had a sunken chest and a wimpy handshake before the whistle, then light em up. It works until everyone knows who you are.

      @wglide444 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@michaelwernett504 Right, once they experienced it, you couldn't do it again to the same guy. My brother Ed also did the sunken chest - weak handshake and coughed. Funny - you two thought alike.

    I wear ankle socks and wear tornado headgear even though I’ve been wrestling for 3 years but I’m from the south. When you get on that mat that proves if ur a newbie not the hand shake but what u do then is what says if ur a newbie or not

    I know this video is 2-3 years old at this point, but I LOVE this topic. The "Weak Handshake", at least for me, was always a tell tale sign that you're about to destroy this kid standing in front of you. I remember I shook one kids hand my 8th grade season and almost literally crushed it. BUT, I do have one disagreement with you're list. The "Double Knee Pads" I was a double knee pads guy, Jr High all the through my Senior season of high school. Now I wasn't a State Place Winner caliber wrestler, but I wasn't a push over by no means and I rocked the double knee pads basically because they kept my knees from getting mat burn and I felt I was able to slide into my double and single leg attempts more quickly and smoothly. I never thought wearing double knee pads made a guy look goofy, but maybe when my back was turned everyone was pointing and laughing 😂, who knows. Great video and topic guys!
