All about mindset. You could have all the physical tools in the world, but if your mind isn’t in the right place it’ll eat you up. I always told myself that I could take down anyone, and that no one could take me down. If I got on bottom, I would say no one can hold me down. Pretty amazing how creative your mind becomes when these thoughts are floating in your head. You’ll do anything to get a takedown or not get taken down. Great tips!
Litterly every since I’ve been hearing myself pushing me hard everytime I want to give up on a 4 mile run my mind tell me keep going and some how I push through the mind is powerful for instance I would hear stuff like if your legs are able to walk you are able to run the motivation I’ve been having is insane I thank God for the spirit he gave me
Mindset and confidence is everything. If you’re not confident you can win, you’ll be afraid to shoot in or go for that throw when you see the opening. You need to believe you will win
During my ever first tournament, a player’s father noticed that I was looking a little nervous, and without knowing who I was or what school I was from, he gave me a pep talk. The most memorable part of it was “There are only winners and learners, no such thing as losers.” Love that guy wherever he is now.
Thanks for the nerves one cause I always get nervous before a match and it was starting to discourage me from the sport but this instantly calmed me down thank you
I didn’t start wrestling till junior year and had no prior experience with any sport but I really enjoyed wrestling and I had a really good first year and was 1 win away from qualifying for state but I struggled with my mind set and I can say that if I hadn’t gone into the district and regional match’s thinking everyone was better than me I would’ve preformed a lot better but I still enjoyed every minute of it
For whoever needs to hear this... Whatever your mind can conceive and believe, your mind can achieve. Whenever you go out on the mat think to yourself I am a national (or state) champion and I have to defend my title. Whenever you go to practice think to yourself I am the best but I have to practice harder to stay the best. This is your year and as long as you keep a mindset that you are the best and can prove it, there's no reason why you shouldn't win nationals (or states) this year. Practice hard, focus and just do it!
I struggle with confidence and don't know how to gain it, I'm 14-0 on my senior season rn and I still get scared before every match even against people who have a losing record
I love your videos. I just finished my 3rd wrestling season and missed out on state. I’m saving all your informational vids to help me become just as good as you
As a thin guy who has never really done any sort of sport. I’m really nervous to start wrestling freshman year with some of my bigger friends and season starts soon so I will keep these in mind while I workout.
My worst habit in high school was I’d tell myself the worst possible situation, didn’t matter how high level I got, state, nationals, I would get myself so psyched out that I wasn’t even there and it’d be surreal every time I won.
Awesome 😎💯😎 thanks I appreciate your information ℹ️. I wrestle for fun and fitness. I have no formal back ground. Their has been no opportunity to learn. Congratulations 🎉🎆🎉!
It does matter if you win or lose though. Because truly champions don’t really lose unless it’s to someone who out crafted them or has better conditioning
