Home Country:  |  Should i join wrestling?!
Should i join wrestling? I want to do a sport and wrestling seems like my best option, because i take jiu jitsu. Granted, i am in 9th grade and weigh about 125 pounds, i don't have a gut and am not fat but im not ripped and don't have a six pack or anything...  . |

Home Country: | I agree, you should definately take it.
especially if you are in JJ. it helps a lot as 47martialman said.
hey, don't get discouraged, because I am in 10th grade, 135lbs, and i am ripped like crazy, but not buff at all.
i don't want to be buff, but i am too thin
I am here with ya buddy

i will love to learn it to help my MA and all but i guess it is just not my thing. I don't like classifying myself in terms of Striker or wrestler and all like in the UFC, but i guess wrestling is too slow paced/ action for me
