Review

I am a high school state champion wrestling coach and a long time user of your wrestling book. The information and wrestling specific programs I've found in your book allowed my team to prepare professionally and has improved our wrestling. The strength gains during the off-season training were phenomenal. The customized programs for my lighter weight-class wrestlers were perfect as they gained strength and quickness without gaining a single pound. Thanks! --Leigh L, State Champion

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing Innovative for Wrestling Specifically, April 1, 2010

By 

Prepony Coach - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Wrestling (Paperback)

I am a wrestling coach and father to three boys who love the sport. I was looking for a book to give my wrestlers an advantage over their competition...geared more towards the off season and what we can do as a team to make a jump up to the next level. What I found in this book was nothing new to anyone who has any sort of weight training experience. It does contain some useful information, and for someone who is looking to educate themselves about weight training for wrestling or football or other similar sports, this book will definately help. But I was looking for something a bit more innovative and specific to wrestling. I was disappointed.
