WRESTLING

Strong and quick. Wrestling is an individual sport that requires both, and in just the right amounts. Wrestlers need to be constantly aware of their body weight as they increase strength. Additionally, the individual's wrestling style as well as his strengths and weaknesses will direct his training. This is a very specialized sport.


Wrestling teams and individual wrestlers that use the SmartVest enjoy the intensity of the workout and the fit of the product. It can be utilized during nearly all exercises and drills. The athlete can be quick and rely on leg power, or take advantage of his arm length and leverage. Different exercises and workout pace are required, but the additional functional load can feel right at home in both scenarios. It can be used by all wrestlers. Any size. Any wrestling style.

This focused training demands distraction-free loading and movement cooperation. Poorly distributed force will cause problems with balance and technique. Heck, don't wrestle with your vest, save it for the mat.

Daily wear of the SmartVest is a great method of maintaining, as well as increasing functional strength, without building large, heavy muscle. You'll forget you have it on. Good posture is promoted because of the snug, compression fit and it helps to keep you trim and toned. We have users tell us they have lost 2-3 inches around the waist since using their vest. The inner-belt stability system is the reason. How about endurance?

Wrestlers are forced to work through the "fatigued state" during matches. You have to persist or you lose. Workouts have to be sustained to force match-like conditions, so they can teach their body to work through it. Let's salute the unsung wrestlers. Hard working and dedicated warriors. Well, let's giv'em some assistance.

Vested(smart) exercises, loaded for controlled power, will help build that needed stamina and provide the confidence that you can "bust through that wall" during competition. What do you think you will feel like when you shed 10 lbs of body weight (the vest) right in the middle of the workout? You might call it aggressive quickness. We call it contrast training, the loading and unloading process that gives the sensation of being lighter and faster. It works for other sports, it will work for you. It certainly will add a little excitement to your workout.

Once again, progression and natural weight dispersion are paramount to getting the best results. The weight should not be on the shoulders and distributed around the core. Sounds like a SVest. The benefits......

+ Enhanced balance & agility
+ More explosive movements
+ Accelerated running workouts
+ Increased speed/strength
+ Burning more calories, and
+ Developing optimal stamina.

This may be the just the ticket you need to break through that plateau. And remember the guaranteed custom fit. It's the key.

Take care.
