I came here from Ireland and learned the Iowa way of wrestling and the culture surrounding it. I joined in and busted my arse. Iowa wrestling is a way of life.

Cael Sanderson is THE MAN! Pure and seamless technical perfection - look at Cael's eyes during the match, he's in his Zen space, totally in control. Love the use of the ankle pick and the cradle too - something the Iowa Hawkeye wrestlers seem to not use at all. I watched this whole documentary and I felt that the wrestler who didn't make the starting line-up, Josh Budke, would have benefited much more from going to a wrestling program that emphasized technique, holds and leverage - like Iowa State. Instead, the Iowa Hawkeyes all train in the Dan Gable style - endless conditioning, strength training and stamina work, but less emphasis on pure wrestling techniques. The most successful Iowa Hawkeye wrestlers tend to be squat, stocky, muscular wrestlers who use their strength and stamina to bully and wear out their opponents - which was NOT the right style for a wrestler who is lanky and lean and less physically strong, like Josh Budke. In the beginning of the documentary, I didn't care for Steve Mocco - who sounded like a bullying jerk. But, when it's revealed that he lost almost all his matches as a young kid, yet stuck with it and built himself into a wrestling monster - my respect for him grew enormously. I liked Mike Zaddick, but his dad seems kind of nuts - the stereotypical "sports-father".

Yeah I think one of the requirements to be a good Iowa wrestler is to be batshit-which is a reoccurring theme when you look at many of the old Iowa greats. I like how the good Iowa wrestlers today are much more likable, and wrestle more technically.

Cael’s technique was the closest thing to perfection in the sport that I have ever seen. Seldom made mistakes. Great capitalization off of opponents mistakes. Wish he had wrestled in the ‘08 and ‘12 games to try to become the first 3x gold medalist. But I can understand that the sport can burn you out quickly.

For people that never wrestled, typical practices at high school level start off with a 3 mile or longer run (depending on where you live, you could end up doing it in the snow), you drill and live wrestle for about 2 more hours, and then you have 30 minutes or more of abusive conditioning. You then check your weight (after about 4 hours of exercise with no hydration if you are cutting weight) and see how much more misery you have to inflict on yourself to make weight later on. The entire season is a constant battle just to make onto the mat. I wonder why I did it when I could have enjoyed snowboarding, hunting, and other fun during the winters.

I had 2 cousins call me "gay" when they found out i wrestled. Next year i was expelled and went to a school with no wrestling. All of a sudden i hear they were in wrestling. Unfortunately for them there records werent nearly as good as mine. But one day i went to a meet and wound up coaching 1 of my cousins to a victory since his coach didn't seem to have faith in him. Wrestling left me with good memories and i hope my son will follow suit with the family. If not; can't force him. The most unglorious sport.

@@Wecameformoore It truly isn’t a sport filled with glory. It however is very good at character building. More discipline is required. Our team wouldn’t drink alcohol or smoke during the season. It was about total commitment. The football team would get high before games (0-10 record proves how good of an idea that was). A lot of the football team are dead, in jail, or pumping gas. Most of the wrestlers have had successful lives because the sport taught endurance, perseverance, self-reliance, dealing with pressure, and how to be a good leader/follower. Humbling to say the least as sometimes you run into someone you just couldn’t compete with.

Settle down, I was being facetious. I know the history between Iowa and Iowa State. Only soft spot I had between either of the two is former ISU coach Bobby Douglas, especially after Cael took the coaching job and then bolted to Penn State after 3 years. Douglas is and will always be a class act. Having said that, if Iowa will ever get "back up there", they'll have to figure out how to have a deeper lineup than PSU, with Taylor / Ruth / Wright all returning next year. Who knows, we'll see.

@Daski69 If that camera was not in that back hallway you wouldn't have seen that. He shook the opponents hand, didn't flip the crowd off or anything, ran off into a back hallway where no one could see him and vented. There just happened to be a camera taping a documentary. I think if there was a camera showing every athlete after every event it might cause you to rethink your dogma which is nice but not the way it really is. Are you sure your not just looking for any excuse to fault Iowa?

@Daski69 I assume your talking about what happened after the IA St match,nothing was broken, the mess was cleaned up, how is it bad sportsmanship when you let out some emotion away from the public. I don't think that you have ever cared about something enough where you feel like your guts have been ripped out because you put so much into it and didn't get the result you want. That's what it feels like. No one is asking you to justify anything, just think about it from someone elses perspective.

could someone with knowledge in the subject tell me which physical aspect is the most important in wrestling, speed, power or endurance? I know that you should not have zero in any of them but which is the most important? Some wrestlers I've seen have been extremely ripped whereas some of them have excessive fat on their bodies. Is it maybe detrimental for a 185 pounder to have fat but not for a heavyweight? How can you go seven minutes if you have a high fat percentage?

@Daski69 in wrestling you combine all of them to just be a powerhouse,and have endurance but also most important technique and you can go seven minutes in a match with high fat because you can train your body like a madman and your body can get use to it and have the endurance to go seven minutes without stopping either that or pin your opponent early :)
