Why should wrestlers lift heavy? Why doesn’t lifting heavy feel intense? Am I wasting my time if I am not tired while I lift?  

Wrestlers need strength. It’s a non-negotiable. Adding strength through lifting heavy is one of the easiest ways to compound your skillset in wrestling. It's not just about the specific strengths in wrestling, it's about the ability to adapt and train a new skill set. Taking the right rest breaks to maximize power and strength is an uncomfortable feeling for wrestlers but this discomfort will result in benefits. Wrestling practice is all about capacity, and we tend to ignore the absolute outputs of strength and power on that journey. A slight focus on the output of quality not quantity can overhaul your wrestling game. Try something new, and get strong.
