A baggy singlet the doesn't fit. I did this one time when I accidentally grab my older brothers singlet to go to a tournament. i woke up late and had bed head. people thought I was a clown. I won the tournament down in delaware

I feel like that is such valuable advice when doing anything, even outside and of wrestling and in other sports. Having a mindset of "everyone is a state champ" is the best mindset for wrestling
Daniel Moucha what you said is mostly true but let’s say you walk out there and the dude you’re wrestling looks like he should be two weight classes below you and has no muscle definition. What would be the first thing that goes through your head?
Wearing double knee pads is actually a smart strategy. Wearing only one telegraphs your dominant shooting leg. I've seen guys wear both, it's a preference I guess.
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.
@@adrishqipe depends since sometimes you switch which leg you lead with when you circle or something so if you switch which leg you lead with they won’t know
Two time state champion here. I always wore two knee sleeves to combat mat burn. I think you guys are worrying about looks too much. Most of the multi title winners did not look like your typical wrestling prototype. Jason Nolf looks like a noodle and he’s one of the baddest dudes to ever walk on a mat (3 NCAA titles).
@@kenyalmb I said he looks like a noodle. I’m built just like him. Thin and lean. He’s not stacked up like Suriano and burroughs. That’s all I was saying.
I had the fish handshake, but was the most winning freshman on the team. I think we're all just trying not to come off rude, so we really really underdo the handshake. I think it's athlete thing, not peculiar to wrestling.
Padrino guilty of doing this throughout kids club wrestling all the way into high school. Along with asking kids how long they’ve wrestled in the bullpen in youth lmfao
Jonny AztcM lmao I tickled a dude in an exhibition match I was 150 but they didn’t have a 152 he was a 174 so I figured it’d throw him off and it did 😂
Jade Nguyen -- "Ringworm" = wrestling code for full erection. Why does nobody mention this most common side effect? Even know of some wrestlers who work it up before match to intimidate opponents.
Khabib and Matt Hughes aren't exactly impressive either. But technique wise they're the best of their era. From a mma perspective, the way a person looks means practically nothing.
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
@@djhypebeast3435 yeah you're right the whole singlet gets uncomfortable. Headgear also but my HS and college coach would get on to us for messing with your singlets, headgear, or kneepads "Stay Busy" was the motto
On my old team, we always treated the newbie wrestlers like Marine Corps recruits. Upon officially initiating them into the brotherhood, we educated them on wrestling etiquette and informal traditions.
We sit on the edge of the mat and cheer them on. You may be the one wrestlings but your teams the one that can give you that determining strenghth while you do it!!
I wish I knew this when I was wrestling in the 70's. I would do those things on purpose. Just to get into the other guy's head. They sounded like the valley girls from the 80's.
Yea man if u spend more than 70$ on shoes your stupid. Unless you dont rip through shoes as fast as I do, spending more than 70$ is dumb and the asics are comfy asf
NCAA National Champ Charles Jones of Purdue told me he always shook his oppenents hands "like a bitch". No one is going to blast double this guy into another dimension.
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.
I always do that😂 before my name even pops up on the tv I walk around sweats on, straps up, jacket on, and my headgear on sideways with earbuds in😂. I’ve never seen anyone else do it
No lie I had a teammate who was tall lanky pasty white had a bowl haircut always wore ankle socks and matflexs had the leg parts of his singlet pulled down and always wore a plain zip up jacket during warmups but he was a damn stud and spladled half the people he wrestled
@@gavingilburg2323 no one gives a shit how you look. it's wrestling, not a fucking fashion show. I only wore one knee pad when i wrestled, but only cuz i didnt want to pay for a second knee pad since i supported myself through wrestling. I woudlnt have minded having a second one. my left knee would've thanked me for that now.
I wish I wore double in hindsight. Especially for sweep singles. But, I didn’t cause I always thought it looked nerdy and I was all about that one white youth junior ASICS volleyball knee pad on the right knee and my Kendall cross adistars black or white. Or the black and orange zip up adidas. The first year they came out with the zip ups
My kid is newer, but there is a kid on my kids team, he is stud.. wins em all, beats kids 4 years older than him, ankle socks. If it was his way he'd wear none...weird I know
Oh yes... I'm older and forgot about that but that's a good one and nobody mentioned it yet bravo. It used to irritate me listening to those greenhorns thinking in fantasy land. Everything's a home run or not even realistic.

I use the Tornado headgear because that’s the one I got in 7th grade and I’ve been using it ever since. I’m in 10th grade now and I still use it. The headgear you wear doesn’t mean jack shit. A real way to spot a newbie is his stance before the match begins and how he warms up
@@jacobmiller3933 well if that works for you then great ig, but if you have a bad stance at the beginning, if the other person attacks immediately your chances are worse unless you're trying to bait them into one hell of a sprawl or something
First off, double kneepads. I wrestled for 7 years and always wore them. I was ranked top 10 in western New York my senior year so I will have to disagree with this one. Also just throwing Michael K in there supports my argument. Good content tho guys much respect.
The one about the weak hand shake is true I wrestled a kid today who gave me a weak hand shake and I got called for clasping and stalling and still won
My HS wrestling coach told me to shake with a weak grip at the beginning of the match all the time. I caught a lot of my opponents off guard. Tight grip afterwards win or lose.
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.
@@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 got a kliff Keen singlet (L) at 5'11 175lbs that still comes all the way down to my knees. I have this dilema where I'm to tall for a medium but to light for a large. It's weird.
I’m 2nd in the county and I’m the ankle sock kid, also like to talk to the kids I’m wrestling about shake shack even if it’s just me speaking out loud to them, makes winning so much more fun and hilarious, thinking about getting pink shoes and knee pad with shreck on it too, but wouldn’t do it at a big tournament
I actually think it's funny when great wrestlers do these things, we're just messing around anyways. But the Shake Shack thing is hilarious. Keep it up! 🤣
They arnt bad shoes the grip is good and have good ankle support I had them my first few years they are good it’s just that’s all stores sell in person abs everyone had them
Underestimating your opponent is the worst possible mistake anyone could possibly make. I've done in and got my ass kicked. Naturally, sometimes your gut is right, but if you go in thinking you got it in the bag, you're making a mistake

What if you can wrestle in two different stances wouldn’t that be a good thing to have double knee pads
Not warming up is sketchy. They're either trash or a stud. No in between
U are correct

That's true because you have some guys who warm up in the hallway or mat room, and you don't even see their intense warmup.

The first wrestling move I teach as a coach is the good, firm handshake. No wet fish handshakes with my kids.
First off, double kneepads. I wrestled for 7 years and always wore them. I was ranked top 10 in western New York my senior year so I will have to disagree with this one. Also just throwing Michael K in there supports my argument. Good content tho guys much respect.
Smart wrestlers always give a weak handshake, never show your strength until it's needed, it's part of the psychology of wrestling!
Dude I’m a beginner and I don’t do any of these lol
Clan PLAN B how is it? I’m thinking of joining
Shaine Cortes lit
no way you have to do atleast one
The one about the weak hand shake is true I wrestled a kid today who gave me a weak hand shake and I got called for clasping and stalling and still won
NCAA National Champ Charles Jones of Purdue told me he always shook his oppenents hands "like a bitch".
My HS wrestling coach told me to shake with a weak grip at the beginning of the match all the time. I caught a lot of my opponents off guard. Tight grip afterwards win or lose.
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!
Ima try both of these now
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.
@@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.
Why don’t y’all just let guys wrestled the way they want too, you guys are newbie
I did the whimpy hand shake it the state finals my senior year of high school 😂😂. Then won the match easy
Bull crap ur like 11 😂😂
My school doesn’t even have a wrestling program, just everything else but wrestling and I still watch these
Dude that's awesome! Glad that you're a part of the community! 👍
I got a kliff Keen singlet (L) at 5'11 175lbs that still comes all the way down to my knees. I have this dilema where I'm to tall for a medium but to light for a large. It's weird.
I’m 2nd in the county and I’m the ankle sock kid, also like to talk to the kids I’m wrestling about shake shack even if it’s just me speaking out loud to them, makes winning so much more fun and hilarious, thinking about getting pink shoes and knee pad with shreck on it too, but wouldn’t do it at a big tournament
Just to clarify shake shack talk happens before the match not during
I actually think it's funny when great wrestlers do these things, we're just messing around anyways. But the Shake Shack thing is hilarious. Keep it up! 🤣
The good ol mat flexes every noob has them
That's not a terrible idea, but it will only work until you meet a guy who will wrestle with you the same way no matter who you are
My friend Trenton wore them and he’s placed at state for the last 3 years
They arnt bad shoes the grip is good and have good ankle support I had them my first few years they are good it’s just that’s all stores sell in person abs everyone had them
If he keeps putting the chin strap on his chin but doesn’t have a actual chin cup
Kyle Dake wore tornado headgear too I think he was also a double knee pad at times
Dake and IMAR kept the Tornado headgear sales above water! 💰
the low singlet and double knee pad ones are so on point LOL
Ppl who wear there sweats with no shirt and single straps up
I know people who purposely gave out a weak handshake. To play mind games with their opponents.
U forgot when the opponent moves away from u right away like it's his first match (which it might be)
Underestimating your opponent is the worst possible mistake anyone could possibly make. I've done in and got my ass kicked. Naturally, sometimes your gut is right, but if you go in thinking you got it in the bag, you're making a mistake
Lol my first year I would always “flex” my flabby noodle arms after a win thinking i was cool😂
Member of the Tornado posse here 💪
More comfortable and you’re able to hear the coaches a lot better. Vito also rocks rocks them
Keeps pulling singlet below the knee caps because he’s self conscious 😂😂
I went 8-1 and in school with double knee pads
The fact that you've only had 9 matches tells me you're a middle schooler, and middle school is light work
Here in Texas if you have a USA tattoo you were a stud😂
The number one way to tell if a wrestler is a newbie is if hes wearing a loose fitting singlet or headgear that doesnt fit properly.
The over sized singlet😂
If it's to small then they grab their junk for the whole match lol
