Product Description:
Wrestling as much as any sport requires a special type and level of courage. The arduous training, periodic weight cutting, and public arena for performing are challenges that intimidate all but a special breed of athlete. And that is not to mention the sport’s very essence: facing off against an opponent who wants to do nothing less than dominate you physically, destroy you emotionally, and humiliate you mentally.
Wrestling Tough is a unique look at the "stuff" that has characterized the greatest competitors to ever take the mat. Award-winning author Mike Chapman first presents the attributes that serve as a common link among wrestling champions through the decades. From there he details how and when these attitudes, thoughts, and behaviors manifest themselves in the training room and in competition.
Even the best athletes and most successful coaches will find something new to add to their skill set. Let Wrestling Tough be your guide to a championship-level mindset.

I've just started wrestling in my 40's. I did Judo and Jiu Jitsu in my 30's and Kickboxing/Kung Fu in my 20's. This is not only a great ... Read More

I REALLY enjoyed reading "Wrestling Tough". It's very motivational and has helped me push myself a little harder. However, there are a couple of drawbacks. Firstly, there seems to be an endless supply of name dropping which gets tiresome after 100 pages or so. Also, he uses one "inspirational" story which I think of as being borderline retarded. On page 207 - 208 he describes Phil Peterson who recognized that he had something wrong with his arm, showed it to the trainer who essentially told him he ... Read More
