Health tips for the wrestlers

Wrestling is a sport that involves strength and power and it requires a great skill of lifting and pushing. The different categories for the wrestling match depend on the weight of the players. The match takes place between two players of same weight and similar age. This weight is needed to be managed and maintained in a proper order so that the player can play in her/his own comfort zone.
The ratio of protein, fat and other nutrients are to be maintained properly if it is not the wrestlers will face some serious problem. This will lead to deterioration of the player’s performance and ultimately in the degradation of the game. Signs of low protein in the young wrestler may show up as one or more of the following:
• Problems with sleep
• Problems with concentrating
• Constipation/diarrhea
• Fatigue
• Unexplainable injuries or multiple injuries with little trauma
• Problems with skin, nail and/or hair
• Unexpected broken bones
• Problems with emotional stability
• Problems gaining strength
• Consistent problems with muscle strains/ligament sprains
To maintain the weight it is very necessary to follow some simple rules everyday
• Concentrating on wrestling rather than on cutting weight will make you a better wrestler.
• To grow naturally and increase strength, wrestlers need the same nutrients as other teenagers, but need more calories to meet the demands of daily training.
• Fasting causes the body to use muscle proteins for energy even if fat is available. This limits muscle growth and strength development.
• A proper diet will help wrestlers lose fat weight without sacrificing muscle tissue or becoming dehydrated.
• Dehydration is a major cause of losses in strength and endurance.
• Losing weight rapidly results in a loss of both muscle tissue and water.
• Losing weight gradually (2-3 lbs/week) is the best way to lose fat and keep muscle.
• Proper training includes practicing proper nutrition every day.
• Practicing good nutrition and proper weight control methods is vital to achieving peak physical performance.

Yoga

Wrestling requires immense physical and cardiovascular strength and stamina. Yoga eases pain and reduces injury especially for wrestlers who often suffer from shoulder and knee injuries. Increasing shoulder flexibility as well as lower back, hamstrings, chest, and the cervical spine help reduce suffering and injury for wrestlers. Physically, yoga also improves strength, balance, and flexibility. Wrestling is all about focusing on the moment and anticipating the next. Yoga impacts a wrestler’s ability to focus on the present moment. In addition, yoga increases the ability to focus and concentrate. Wrestling on its own cultivates and promotes humility, holding the head high at the end of wins and losses. Yoga increases the wrestler’s ability to stay humble and encourages “work ethic” by stressing the importance of practice and progress, not perfection. In my next blog I will provide a list of Yoga Poses beneficial  for you all.
