Very informative!

I’m not actually a wrestler, how ever I am a prior fitness trainer and specialist in nutrition. I had a conversation with a buddy of mine some time ago. He is a wrestler and even performed for the Marine Corps wrestling team. The stories he told me about making weight made me cringe. This author does a very good job of presenting the healthy methods of cutting weight for tape ins. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

I thought this was a great book for parents, coaches and wrestlers. As a nurse, I can vouch for the nutrition facts and information. Of course, because my wrestler is a teenager, he doesn't listen to me, so it is nice to have a book endorsed by his coaches to back me up.

This book provides wrestlers and parents solid, healthy plans.
