- This week, Wrestling Mindset founder Gene Zannetti sits down with Olympic Gold Medalist Zaurbek Sidakov.
Together, they discuss how Russia managed to standardize practice routines across the country during communism; even though this may have hurt innovative practice methods, it set values and goals for all to aspire to and strive for.
They also talked about the difference between static stretching and dynamic warmups and how warning up is a part of the workout and not just something we have to do. And how giving your absolute best in any practice or match can help build your confidence more.

This channel doesnt get the respect it deserves, thank you for making this happen. Very interesting to get to delve into the russian mindset and Sidakov's mindset at that. Keep it up man, really appreciate the hard work
Sidakov does not have the typical “Russian” mindset. In Russia we have many ethnicities, especially in Caucasus. Zaurbek has Ossetian mindset (we actually do have very different mentalities, it’s not like “same thing with some nuances”)
@@cityhunter6969 I agree, every human being has a different mindset, but they have a similar way of doing many things such as the warmup mentioned, maybe mindset was bad word choice on my part.
@@Th3Chuzzl3r ah I understand now. But there’s also some differences😂😂 Ossetia has best wrestling school on the planet. I admit that I’m flexing rn but I’m not lying😂 our number 1 opponents are Dagestan and we have differences even in wrestling styles. Like Ossetian school is more based of thinking, and Dagestani is more based of strength. With time of course we get something from them and they get from us, but if you see “Russian wrestler” it is 95% either Dagestani either Ossetian, because we are best in the world
@@cityhunter6969 Very interesting to hear a locals perspective. I am very aware of Dagestan, Ossetia, and also Chechnya. I love hearing the nuances between them all, because sadly the outside world kind of just groups all of you together which of course is very ignorant.
Do you have any other information to share? What are the schools names? Do they prefer certain techniques such as the world class slide by that Sidakov hits? How do the schools work, do the people that attend those schools represent them when they compete as children and teenagers? If you dont mind answering I have many questions, I am from America and love the sport of wrestling, I have massive respect for your people, the dagestanis, and chechens.
@@Th3Chuzzl3r nah, I do understand why people think that “we’re all the same”. Especially western people. No problem. I’ll answer other questions but little later, I’m a bit busy rn
Excellent points! A dynamic warmup accessing the transverse plane is essential to combat ( if not all) athletes. Having trained with Russian strength and conditioning trainers for 6 years taught me a great deal and changed my approach.
Awesome. What do you think the biggest difference is between American strength and conditioning vs Russian strength and conditioning now a days?
Growing up poor and cold in the mountains is the mindset training.
The warm up is probably the most critical part of practice. Having trained with the Dominican national team, they share the same style of warm up: 15 minutes of dynamic warm up, followed by 6 minutes of specific drilling warm ups before technique and then live. If you're not warmed up, you're likely to get injured
Where can I find video of the warm up? Thanks for the great interview!
Great video. Where can I find the film?
of the training ?
