How heavy should I go on my lifts?
Some exercises have percentages included that should be performed according to your 1 rep max in that lift. If there is no percentage, that means we want you to use and develop your autoregulation ability to determine to how heavy to go. Autoregulation is learning how hard your body is able to push itself and how to increase weights in a proper progression to ensure you are thoroughly warmed up and able to go as heavy as you are able without failing on any sets (unless specified).

When training explosive based work for wrestling we need to understand the key elements of the sport. We know that wrestlers need to have absolute strength, relative strength and we know, if in season, strength endurance is needed. However, when talking about offseason explosive training, we can take strength endurance out of the equation...
Hot take: bodybuilding is one of the most important factors behind becoming a successful wrestler working in the weight room.
Here at Garage Strength we have heard wrestling coaches say things like, “Well, that team’s got a lot of good bodybuilder physiques on them, but how good are they on the mat?” Reasonable question, completely understandable. We have even...
Anytime anywhere training for wrestling! We are big proponents of lifting weights to improve sports performance. Saying we are big proponents of lifting weights to improve performance is actually quite an understatement on our part. We’re actually HUGE proponents of lifting weights to improve sports performance. So, lift weights to improve sports performance....
Folkstyle, Greco-Roman or Freestyle wrestling strength coaches are constantly wondering how much strength, speed and endurance the wrestling athlete needs. Honestly, they need um. All. Strength. Speed. Endurance. On the mat, you can’t have one without the other. If one is lacking, the others are not operating at their full potential on the mat. That isn’t good. That’s a problem....
Who hasn’t heard a horror story of a wrestler cutting weight? The stories come across as part demonic possession mixed with zombie slithering. Wrestlers projectile vomiting prior to crawling across the floor to stand on the scale, eyes glazed as if in death throes, all to make weight for the match. High school coaches, children’s own parents even, force their kids to run around in trash bags, covered in sweats, while in a sauna, only to chastise the athlete’s poor performance on the mat...
The sport of wrestling is conducive to a wide range of body types, sizes and builds. There isn’t a composite of ideal human dimensions to be used to create the perfect human body type to be checkmarked off a dossier sheet to determine if a person will be more suited to be successful at wrestling.
Long and lanky people are successful at wrestling. Short and stocky people are successful at wrestling. You name it, there is a body type that has found success in the sport of wrestling....

The man’s ability to go on the mat and prove how good he is is clear. The performances speak volumes. Nick goes on the mat and defeats his opponents time and time again...
ItalyI’m a bjj and wrestling competitor, I have tried this plan at believe me it’s really good, I fell my body on point, my performance on the mat are sensibly grown in terms of stamina and power!
United States United StatesI bought this course for my 12 year old son/wrestler. To be honest, I was shocked by what I thought was something that would be to difficult to be able to teach him to do and get him to safely execute. However, I was completely wrong and overthinking it. I am not a guy that has in depth knowledge of some of these lifts and that worried me, but it didn’t need to. There are provided links to each exercise and I YouTube searched for additional information. We started out the first week with light weight and worked on his form. The next week he was confident and added weight. Now, in his fourth week, I can’t believe what I see when we go to the gym. Don’t be afraid of this, just do it and you won’t regret it!
RussiaTo my regret, I was not able to try out the program. I am still recovering from covid-19 and have some breathing problems. But I showed this program to a friend of mine who is an expert in crossfit, functional patterns, fitness and more. He positively assessed this program, saying that it has nothing superfluous and has a competent re-design. Since I have little experience in Olympic weightlifting and have read the main Soviet books on the preparation of athletes in this sport, I can also assess your program as very high quality. With enthusiasm I look forward to the opportunity to test these trainings on myself, and a little later to add freestyle wrestling and summer training camp in Dagestan to significantly improve my technical and tactical skills, when the respiratory system is fully restored.
United StatesI'll start by saying I bought this program as a 31 year old coach, not a high school or college athlete. I predominantly got it to help change up our current program but also to help get me in better shape to continue to effectively work in with our better wrestlers. This program in the first month seems to be right thing for what I was looking for. Its introduced some great body weight exercises i can use mid practice and also some weight items as well. I delayed my review for a bit as I didn't notice much back work in the dirst month but that area seems to be more of an emphasis this month. On a personal growth level I've definitely saw results especially in my hand stand push ups and gwiz jumps. Its challenging enough to keep you engaged and focused during it but not so much that it wipes you out to the point you can't do things on the mat. The fact that it changes every month helps prevent falling in ruts or just stopping from boredom. For the price I would highly suggest thisto any athlete or another old guy trying to hold on to what they still have.
