““Most of the Folkstyle fundamentals needed to be a State Champion are very important in Freestyle & Greco-Roman. Striving to be successful in FS & GR will solidify the techniques and strategies that are essential in Folkstyle.”
“Bottom line – anytime you train for a different style of wrestling, such as
freestyle or greco, or even other disciplines like jiu jitsu or judo, it forces your
mind to look at things in a new perspective. It will cause you to see each
situation differently and get more creative with how you set up shots, defend
takedowns, score points on top, and so on. As you pick up new techniques in
other styles and disciplines, you’ll be able to bring those skills and concepts
back and adapt them to become a more well-rounded wrestler overall, in any
style. “”

“Out of season training leads to greater success in the scholastic season. By continuing to work on skills, competing, and training, you will grow as a wrestler. You grow as an athlete.”
““Exposing athletes to multiple styles of wrestling will allow them to develop at a much higher rate,” Nolan said. “The amount of mat time will be significantly increased and will provide them more opportunities to learn from different coaches and different athletes. Moreover, the exposure to multiple styles keeps wrestling fun and interesting and will help take away from an athlete feeling stagnant or bored.””
