    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

Yes I know there’s a whole saying of power through it but the knee pads would prevent may burn, And kinda once I started I felt no reason to go back, I can wrestle without any past today and do occasionally but it always hurts a bit more after practice.

    What is funny is these are all true most of the time. But if you know that, you can use this to play mind games with your opponents. I wore two knee pads, always. I would sometimes wear ankle socks, soccer socks, high socks, or no show socks. At tournaments I would rarely warm up.I would usually sit next to my opponent while they were warming up and I would try to look as disinterested in wrestling as humanly possible. I won the vast majority of my matches. They think you're trash until your first match, then after you trounce some known guy, you can only mess with newbs who you were going to brutalize anyway. You do this at one tournament and you become known, immediately. Especially if you consistently take home hardware.

The "Weak Handshake", at least for me, was always a tell tale sign that you're about to destroy this kid standing in front of you. I remember I shook one kids hand my 8th grade season and almost literally crushed it. BUT, I do have one disagreement with you're list. The "Double Knee Pads" I was a double knee pads guy, Jr High all the through my Senior season of high school. Now I wasn't a State Place Winner caliber wrestler, but I wasn't a push over by no means and I rocked the double knee pads basically because they kept my knees from getting mat burn and I felt I was able to slide into my double and single leg attempts more quickly and smoothly. I never thought wearing double knee pads made a guy look goofy, but maybe when my back was turned everyone was pointing and laughing 😂, who knows. Great video and topic guys!

    I used to yank my singlet down when I first started cause I was used to long basketball shorts since middle school. Then I actually just let it go high cause I saw my favorite Stanford wrestlers in hs wearing it high. The high look just started looking more badass. In terms of warm ups, I need my neck stretches at the very least, or else imma be sore af. I used asics headgear in hs. It was Velcro and cheap from big 5 but it wasn't the old school model. But it was comfortable for everyday practice. I needed double knee pads tho. I shoot with my left but also i tore my ACL on my right leg. Before surgery, it was there to defend my leg. After, it was there to hide the surgery scar cause any injuries are green lights for dirty wrestlers.

    I have a friend who uses double knee pads. He puts 1 on his dominant leg for practice so it gets all scuffed up and dirty (they are white kneepads) then at tournaments and meets he puts the dirty one on his non dominant leg to try and make the opponent think hes gonna shoot with that leg. Its kinda dumb because he still steps up to the line dominant foot in front. Thought it would be funny to share tho.

    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.

    4:18 actually I yank my singlet all the way down to my knees and tbh it makes me feel more comfortable😂 but In all seriousness though this was my second year of wrestling in high school though ended the season 15-7 (10 of them were pins) so I hope I get a varsity spot for next year.

    one you missed is; a wrestler that worries about how they look. A good wrestler doesn't care about socks or headgear or sizing up opponents on how they look. I had to ban kids from that sort of behavior when I coached. They would talk amongst themselves about who beat who and were always looking at the bracket to figure out who they might wrestle next. That s@*+ shouldn't matter.

    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

    I wear my Singlet High and Socks High. I had custom made socks that my school gave me. I also wore Ankle Braces on both Ankles because I had a lot of Ankle injuries during my high school wrestling Career.
