The Regulation Rule Book: says Your bangs cannot go past your eyes, and your hair can't go to your shoulders. Also you cant have any facial hair. From what you have said your hair should be fine to wrestle with but if your coach really wants you to you should or your gonna be sore at practice if theres a grudge between you. ok hope my answer helped.\n\n          Redbulladdict2005sugarbuzzyeah

Ask your coach. \n\nI asked the same question and that's really the best thing to do.\nThey should give you good ideas for your specific needs and such. =]

Assuming you mean like, competitive high school or collegiate wrestling....\n\nIt's both.  :)  From what I have seen, Greco-Roman does focus more on strength, whereas freestyle or folkstyle does more technique, but the differences are small.\n\nYou are going to need strength so you can maintain position and not get pinned or scored on by your opponent's technique.  Likewise, you will need technique so you can find the leverage *within the rules* to overcome your opponent's strength, as a lot of the ways technique *can* overcome superior strength almost require you to break the rules regarding "torturous" technique or illegal submission attempts, such as hammer-locking an arm past the 90-degree mark, for example.\n\nOne thing I would work on though, is doing diverse strength training....you likely know you should be doing squats to develop leg power so you can shoot in for a takedown...another idea is to work on pullups and/or seated rows to develop *pulling* arm strength to back up that shoot.\n\nBut yes, you need both.  Especially in freestyle, especially in the lower weight divisions.\n\nHope this helps.  :)

Here are some info that i have got: Hope that it would be a big help for you!!\n\n\n             The Rules of Wrestling & Wrestling Positions\n\n\nNeutral Position - The match starts with both contestants standing opposite each other with their lead foot on the green or red area of the starting lines and their other foot even with or behind the lead foot. In the neutral position, neither wrestler has control.\n\nDefensive Starting Position - The defensive wrestler takes a stationary position at the center of the mat with both hands and knees on the mat, as directed by the referee. The elbows may not touch the mat.\n\nOffensive Starting Position - The offensive wrestler is positioned on the right or left side of the opponent with at least one knee on the mat and head on or above the midline of the opponent's back. One arm is placed loosely around the defensive wrestler's body perpendicular to the long axis of the body, with the palm of the hand placed loosely against the defensive wrestler's navel and the palm of the other hand placed on or over the back of the near elbow. One knee is on the mat to the outside of the near leg, not touching the defensive wrestler.\n\nStalemate - When the contestants are interlocked in a position other than a pinning situation in which neither wrestler can improve position, the referee stops the match as soon as possible; wrestling is resumed as for out of bounds.\n\nPosition of Advantage - A situation in which a contestant is in control and maintaining restraining power over the opponent. Control is the determining factor. The offensive wrestler is entitled to this advantage until such time as the opponent gains a neutral position or a reversal.\n\nIn Bounds - Contestants are considered to be in bounds if the supporting parts of either wrestler are inside the inner edge of the boundary lines. A wrestler's supporting points are the parts of the body touching, or within, the wrestling area that bears the wrestler's weight, other than those parts being used to hold the opponent. (Down on the mat, the usual points of support are the knees, the side of the thigh, the buttocks and the hands.) Wrestling continues as long as the supporting parts of either wrestler remain in bounds. When the defensive wrestler's back is exposed to the mat in a pinning situation while at least the supporting points of either wrestler are in bounds, wrestling continues as long as there is a possiblity of the offensive wrestler bringing the opponent back in bounds. In this situation, the defensive wrestler's shoulders (scapulae) are the supporting parts. Near-fall points may be earned only while any part of the defensive wrestler's shoulders (scapulae) are in bounds. If there is no action at the edge of the mat and one wrestler is out of bounds, the referee may stop the match. Upon resumption of the match, the contestants begin in the neutral position at the center of the mat if neither wrestler has control. If one wrestler has the advantage, that contestant will take the offensive starting position at the center of the mat, and the opponent will assume the defensive starting position.\n\n \n\nScoring Opportunities\n\nTakedown - A takedown is awarded when, from the neutral position, a contestant gains control and places the opponent's supporting point(s) down on the mat beyond reaction time. For the purpose of awarding takedown points at the edge of the mat, such points shall be awarded when control is established while the supporting points of either wrestler are in bounds or while at least the feet of the scoring contestant finish down on the mat in bounds.\n\nEscape - A defensive wrestler is awarded an escape when the offensive wrestler loses control of the opponent while the supporting points of either wrestler are in bounds. An escape may be awarded while the wrestlers are still in contact. \n\nReversal - A reversal occurs when the defensive wrestler comes from underneath and gains c

I hate WWE. I'm a high school wrestler and it's one of my few passions in life. I will say that WWE wrestlers are in amazing shape and I think they were all actual wrestlers at one time or another. But it still needs to burn in hell. And will somebody please slap each and every one of these kids that calls real wrestling "gay"? They have no clue how hard this sport is and how much training it requires. I'd like to see them go 3 full periods on the mat. They wouldn't be able to walk off because it's that greuling. Fu*k WWE

Skin infections, such as ring worm and staff, are easy to transmit, BUT if simple proper precautions are taken wrestlers will stay safe! Wash your clothes after EVERY practice, shower right after practice, and use a mat cleaning agent, such as kinshield on the mat at least once a week and everyone will stay safe.

Tell him exactly what you just said.  Ask the Sophomore coach if maybe you can join in on one of the practices so he can see what you've got.  If everyone really thinks your that good...and they aren't just being nice, you deserve a chance with a non biased person.

Well, if you live in NY you should hand out flyers and post them around the neighborhood with a number that a female wrestler could reach you at. Or just post an ad in the news paper. If you don't live in NY you're going to have to search the Internet really hard or just fly out to NY. I live in NY but I'm not a female wrestler, lol.

Yes.  Not often but yes.  I'm very competitive but not very gifted.  While that can be frustrating it also makes the payoff when I win that much sweeter.\n\nI started wrestling in second grade in area that is known for its wrestling programs.  I was always third string a best, in fact the guy i moved thought the ranks with in my weight classes ended up winning the state championship twice.\n\nJunior I started going to a private school that didn't have a wrestling program and although I played soccer i really missed wrestling.  Senior year I approached a staff member who was a coach with the public school in the area and told him i wanted to go one last time.  He found me a tournament and helped me train.\n\nNow at the age of 42 I still count winning that trophy as one of the greatest moments of my life.

If you want to get your coaches attention then do all the dirty work that nobody else wants to do. Like diving on loose balls, rebounding, swinging the ball to the open man, and playing defense. Be the first one to practice and the last player to leave. Show the coach you are willing to do extra work to get your chance. If you are as good as you write then all you need is an opportunity.

You know, a lot of you just don't get it.  Do you see the physiques in the ring?  The majority of them are in tip top shape - and they have to be, in order to succeed in this business.  Why the hell do they have wrestling schools?  So that they can train their @$$es off, until they can do the moves in their sleep.  You have to take wrestling seriously.  An untrained wrestler who goes out there can really seriously injure a fellow wrestler or heaven forbid, even kill them.  It IS a sport, because with any other sport, you have to PRACTICE.  It is also entertainment to go along with the art of wrestling. You have to have some entertainment to go along with the feuds (ex. Spirit Squad vs. DX).  Unlike a lot of sports, they have no off season.  They work 300+ days a year.  That's a lot of endurance and dedication.  If it's so fake and dumb to you, don't watch it. I'd LOVE to see some of you get in that ring with a wrestler.  I'm sure you'd be crying for your mommy within seconds.
