  1. Strength & Conditioning for Wrestling L. Patrick Borkowski Coordinator, Strength and Conditioning United States Olympic Committee

  2. Presentation Overview • Impact of the new rules • Periodisation of Training • Specific Phases • Special Considerations • Conditioning Aspects • Question / Answer

  3. Impact of the New Rules • Shorter periods • Higher intensity • Less grinding, more explosive • Best of three • Even higher intensity • Single day tournament • More matches, less recovery time

  4. Benefits of Strength Training • Increased performance • Stronger, more powerful techniques • Faster body movements • Increased balance • Increased endurance • Faster recovery from workouts • Decrease chance for injury • Decrease recovery time after an injury

  5. Force – Velocity Relationship

  6. Periodisation • Manipulating training volume and intensity • Systematically • 3 Week window for true peak performance • Olympics, World Championships • Parallels wrestling periodisation

  7. Periodisation • Base Conditioning • Technique training • Cross Training • Strength Development • Introduction of explosive movement technique • Progressive increase in intensity • Power Development • Emphasis shift towards explosive movements • Strength maintenance • Taper / Peak

  8. Base Conditioning • Hypertrophy / Endurance Training • High Volume, Low Intensity • 10-12 Reps, 3-4 sets, 3-5 x / week • 60 – 75% 1RM • 30 seconds – 1 minute recovery • General Exercises, Complexes, Circuits • Lactate Burn

  9. Strength Development • Gradual Increase in Intensity, Decrease in Volume • Base Strength • 8-10 reps, 3-4 sets, 3-4 x / week • 70 – 80% 1RM • 1 – 2 minutes recovery • General exercises, explosive technique introduction • Advanced Strength • 5-8 reps, 4-5 sets, 3 x / week • 75 – 90% 1RM • 2 – 3 minutes recovery • High force production exercises, continued explosive progression

  10. Power / Peaking • Highest Intensity, Fastest Movements • Explosive Strength / Taper • 1-5 reps, 2-5 sets, 1-3 x / week • 3 – 5 minutes recovery • Primarily explosive, Olympic style movements, minimal strength • Taper volume first, then intensity

  11. Special Considerations • Complex Training • Potentiation • Workout Guidelines

  12. Potentiation • The occurrence of an acute, transient performance enhancement of an activity as a result of the performance of a previous and closely related conditioning activity • An acute and transient improvement in explosive performance as a result of prior muscle activation • Post-activation Potentiation (Power) • Potentiation until fatigue • Warm-Up sets

  13. Complex Training • Examples • Back Squat Box Jumps • Bench Press MB Chest Throw • Pull – Ups MB Woodchoppers • Hang Clean Vertical Jump • Power Jerk Broad Jump

  14. Hang Clean / Vertical Jump

  15. Power Jerk / Broad Jump

  16. Implementation • Power and Peaking Phases • Early in workout, before fatigue • Initial power exercises • 40 – 60% 1RM • 2 – 4 repetitions • Initial strength exercises • 65 – 90% 1RM • 5 – 1 repetitions • Exercises must be similar in skill and execution

  17. Complex Training • Must not be fatiguing • Initial exercise performed in explosive manner • Advanced technique, requires a solid strength base and lifting experience

  18. Workout Guidelines • Always use proper technique on every exercise! • Almost every athletes weight trains; it’s the little things that will make the big difference in the end • Control the weight down, explode the weight up • Perform any explosive or speed exercises first • You want to be as fresh as possible • Make sure the workout is well balanced • For every pushing exercise make sure there is a pulling exercise

  19. Conditioning • What are the demands of the sport / activity? • Very High Intensity / Very Short Duration • Moderate Intensity / Moderate Duration • Low Intensity / Long Duration • Lower intensity interspersed with high intensity bursts • Does a typical competition consist of multiple races, games? • Wrestling is not cut and dry but will require a mix in training intensities.

  20. Conditioning • What energy systems are associated with each demand • ATP / PCr (0 – 15 sec.) • Anaerobic Glycolysis (15 sec. – 2 min.) • Aerobic Glycolysis / Beta Oxidation (2 min. – hours) • Work to Rest ratios to target specific energy systems • ATP / PCr – 1:3 – 1:5 • Anaerobic Glycolysis – 1:2 • Aerobic Glycolysis / Oxydation – 1:1 • Begin workouts with shortest, most explosive drills first

  21. Planning Out The Year • Hypertrophy Phase: • Develop base conditioning, i.e. aerobic base • Implement Cross Training • Strength Phase: • Increase conditioning intensity • Anaerobic capacity, Lactate Threshold • Power / Peak Phases • Plyometric, explosive movement training • Maintain Anaerobic conditioning • Maintain Aerobic conditioning ?? • In Season • Continue Plyometric and Anaerobic Conditioning • Let Sport practices dominate conditioning (Sport Specific)
