    10:37 I remember seeing that Nikki Roberts match live on FLO! i was a freshman too just like zain and he inspired me alot to try and reach the next level in wreslting, seeing an unkown freshman upset the #1 kid in the country at his state tournament. Rest in peace to the legend Nikki Roberts! salute to zain (ps. im a hawkeye fan)

    Great interview. Back in the day when we watched tv in the evening as a family I would drop down and do as many push ups as possible during commercials. It definitely made a difference both in my strength and stamina. I picked college football and baseball over wrestling. To this day I regret that decision. I should have accepted the wrestling scholarships. I coach now and thoroughly enjoy it.

    i did 1000 push ups and 1000 dips and pull ups

  • @davidgantz9378
    @davidgantz9378 2 роки тому

    Great wrestler but is 1000 pushups a day a bit excessive?

    • @jordanbabcock9349

      Ask his NCAA championship belts SON! Different approach for different folks but it got him to where he wanted!

      3x a week actually

    • @davidgantz9378
      @davidgantz9378 2 роки тому

      @Jordan Babcock yes Jordan I guess you'd be right about that ? It's basically the volume of 1000 reps boggles my mind, the guy who commented below says it was actually 1000x. 3 times a week which still is freak amount of reps but at least recovery can occur

    • @daw162

      explains his cardio. I never saw him get tired and in an interview, he said "well, it's sort of something you have control of, so it shouldn't be a problem". Or something along those lines.

      I dont believe it. 1000 reps would take at least 8 hours if he somehow kept a steady pace. Wrestlers are known to add a little salt to their workout numbers.

    Most overrated wrestler in the history of the NCAA. He had zero competition in his weight classes at the end of his career. When he did have competition he finished fish. Bum.

      Cant say he had no competition when he’s a National Champ. Everyone’s he competing was at the Division 1 Level. He was that good of a wrestler he dominated.
