@mois2202 like i said ,you mean weightlifters,there are no olympic powerlifters.powerlifting is a completely different sport.Theres no endurance required in weightlifting and no lactate generated in efforts that short and extreme.I work as an sports rehabilitator and physiologist for the last 11 yrs so I know just a bit about those subjects, i studied them fulltime for 4 yrs.
@kaliedoscopesharinga freestyle and greco roman wrestling are way more intense then mma, sorry. Your forced to come together and fight for position at all times and you wrestle multiple times per day multiple times in a month. MMA may be more versatile and exciting I understand but quite simply the most in shape athletes are as follows ,gymnasts,wrestlers,powerlifters. those are the top 3 I do know and you can look that up anywhere that goes by condition power speed strength and form.
@mois2202 @kaliedoscopesharing @ tkafakt Guys I'm a wrestler im even cocaching, but this is what happens when MY soccer playing friends go on my youtube account and go through my favorites....-_____-
@mois2202 I must have made a mistake or somethignor something because I havre no idea why i said that oin my last comment it is in no way true and I thought wrestling was harder back then too. Dont know what came over me that day.
@chicogentao Yea right, just ask Matt Hughes,Ryan Bader or Brock Lesnar. BJJ really helped Mir against Lesnar. BJJ really helped Royce Gracie against Matt Hughes.
@kaliedoscopesharinga Don't sell yourself short just trying to get to states, the kids in states are simply the kids who are serious about the sports once you get to a regional championship match youll be able to size yourself up and see what your made of, just study and practice practice practice do gymnastic/olympic lifts for explosive strength and tons of cardio.
@scarred10 Olympic powerlifters generate the most force that can be brought upon the human skeletal muscular system before seperation. The endurance to withstand lactic acid buildups within a short span of time such as that and lift in such proximity of maximum load is an extreme amount of stress on the Cardio vascular, muscular, and nervous systems, learn your physics and anatomy before you write something off as easy, do a snatch at 210% bodyweight then post.
@mois2202 Yes trust me I know, I started wrestling in november 2010. Haveen't stopped since. I've gotten to be a fairly good wrestler and I am looking to wrestle in the North Carolina wresting state championships later this year. Hardest sport I've ever been A part of.
@MrIvanreyes wrist control is probably the worst position to be in as a striker. Started striking moved into wrestling in highschool and fell in love with the sport. If you dont know how to stop a true takedown you will get destroyed everytime. BJJ does not save you if you have no control which is why wrestlers do so well against BJJ practioners in MMA. Striking is for dumbasses who want to leave themselves open for the kill.
