Best way to get into wrestling?
Question
I'm a freshmen and wanted to know the best way to get into wrestling. I wanted to know some of the most common moves, some of your favorite moves, and some sites that really go in-depth about moves and wrestling in general. Any help is appreciated.
Answer
Dear Chris,
The best way to get into wrestling is simple, just go to a practice. You can't read about moves because you have to see the move and do the move yourself in order to understand it. I recommend to start to weight lift and join a wrestling camp for the summer. You might also want to look up some wrestling camps who teach u the basics and help you develope your skills. Also, tournaments are always helpful because you don't wrestle the same person over and over again. Some common move names are things like double legged take down and a single leg take down. Trust me when i say this, just becuase you read about the move doesnt mean u know how to do the move so go into your coach's office and ask him if he could show u some basic moves and get the 411 from him because some states are different. If you have any other questions please feel free to email me again. Good luck
