What is Wrestling?
Wrestling is a combat sport that involves grappling techniques, including clinch fighting, throws, takedowns, joint locks, pins, and other grappling holds. The objective in wrestling is to gain and maintain a dominant position over an opponent, often with the goal of pinning their shoulders to the mat, which is a winning condition in many styles. Wrestling is one of the oldest forms of physical competition, with its origins tracing back to ancient civilizations.
There are various styles of wrestling, each with its unique rules and techniques. The most recognized forms globally are Greco-Roman and Freestyle wrestling, both featured in the Olympic Games. Greco-Roman wrestling prohibits holds below the waist, emphasizing upper body strength and technique, while Freestyle wrestling allows the use of the legs in both offense and defense.
Wrestling is not only a competitive sport but also a method of physical training and a foundational skill for other martial arts and combat sports. It is highly valued for its ability to develop strength, endurance, agility, and discipline. Wrestlers learn to understand leverage, balance, and the mechanics of body movement, making it a comprehensive discipline for physical and mental development.
