      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.

    None of this matters in the long run. Never underestimate your opponent.

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.

      🤣 That's hilarious. Mind games are huge in wrestling. We had a guy on our team who shook hands with his left hand to throw guys off. And it worked. Btw, Brendan and I both wrestled for Canon-McMillan, so it's great to have you watching. Thanks for the support!

      That was my M.O. as well. At weigh-ins, roll my shoulders forward to look like I had a sunken chest and a wimpy handshake before the whistle, then light em up. It works until everyone knows who you are.

      @@michaelwernett504 Right, once they experienced it, you couldn't do it again to the same guy. My brother Ed also did the sunken chest - weak handshake and coughed. Funny - you two thought alike.

    I have new found respect for my coach for going through all the stuff you shouldn’t do. I would have done everything you just said if he had not.
