Wrestling Scholar Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 A less serious topic just to create some laughs. The Scholar is doing some unscientific research and requesting that you post your high school weight class (the one you primarily wrestled or senior year) and then compare it to your current weight class. Reference the year of your high school weight that your using Lets be a honest, as I see you guys out there, and we've put on a pound or two. I'm hypothesizing that this will be interesting and that most guys will be up 3 to 4 weight classes. I also think there's a small percentage of guys that stay really fit and could still wrestle there old weight class. I bet a few guys haven't been on a scale in 10 years. Since this is my proposal the scholar will go first. Lets see who will play along. I say the reward whoever went up the most weight classes gets 100 bananas. I think they might need the carbs. The guy still at that same weight class as HS only gets 10 bananas. My weight class in HS was 167 lbs class of (1988). Current weight class HWY. I've been bulking up by hitting the weights. The good thing about being in HWY is you don't have to list weight Thanks, The Scholar ontherise219 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could run forever then, but cant do 5 mins now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piscis1956 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I finally made it up to 119 pound class during my senior season in 1975. Currently, I’d wrestle 195. (To my credit I did grow a few inches taller after high school ... but I’m still way too heavy. ) Wrestling Scholar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANMAN Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Last wrestled 119 in ‘91, I’m below 220 and working to get down to 185-190. Back injuries an a surgery have limited my workouts off an on the last decade. Four years ago I was about the same weight and had a good year with back problems ( no issues ) and got daily workouts in and got myself down to 174. A month after tho had some issues and gained it mostly all back. Wrestling Scholar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrecoCoach Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I wrestled 125 my senior year in 1996. Now I'd be 220. Started using a weight room in college, which added to some late growth spurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyquhp13 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Graduated in 88' wrestled 135. Would wrestle 195 today, but wouldn't make it through the 1st period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyquhp13 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Just a side note. At the Portage wrestling golf outing they have a scale and all alum have to weigh in and they give out a pig trophy for the person who gained the most weight.

I always joke that I wrestled 167 in HS, and I can make 67 again, but that would have be 267. 100 lbs is a lot of weight. Makes you wonder though, how about all us guys that used to cut weight then we'd binge, if that has had some long term affect on her eating habits and health. Or maybe just older guys just get bigger. Im with you on the weight room, I do hit the weights 4 -5 times a week and a majority of my gain is muscle mass. On the flip side, my wife complains every week the last 23 years that she gained a pound or two, but with all that weight gain she weighs exactly the same amount when I married her. The math doesn't add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like the game of life, but instead of getting little yellow pink and blue pegs to put in your car, you get fat and larger clothes. tyquhp13 and QuinnHarris 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangarrray Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 1984 was at 138 today walking around 175. If it were back then I'd go 160 but today's weight management program would keep me as the shortest 170lber. Good thing I'm built low to the ground for speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
