Two Practices Left

We open at home on Wednesday the 1st of December and I can't wait to get this show started. It's been a good 3 weeks of intense training and the boys are ready to let loose. We will have a full line up for the first time in a very long time. That is of course if every makes weight. I am a bit concerned that some of our guys think that weight cutting only occurs in the room. This is not the case. I've never been a huge believer in cutting a drastic amount of weight, but if you are with in 2-3 lbs of a lower weight class and have 10-15% body fat, it would be in the wrestlers and teams best interest in more times than not to drop the weight. Eating right is the biggest contributor to proper weight loss. Smaller portions and a bit of sacrifice with pop and the sweats will make a huge difference. I am hoping that we can get our guys to buy into that truth.
Come out and support us on Wednesday. The guys and I are excited for the product we hope to put out there this year. This Saturday we are traveling to near by Plainfield South to take on a big 3A team that I think we will compete with very well. Already spoke with their coach who says that they will not have a full lineup. Looking forward to a good first week of wrestling before the Classic next weekend. Thanks to those that have and continue to support the sport that put Plano on the map.
