Synopsis

Richard Brownell provides an in-depth look at the scientific principles behind collegiate and scholastic wrestling, though fans of the W.W.F. can still appreciate this volume about their favorite sport. A brief history is offered followed by chapters that cover the scientific concepts behind training and conditioning, the application of force and leverage in various wrestling moves, and how stability and balance factor into moves. Readers will learn about the psychological aspects of the game as well. Includes graphics to help explain the scientific principles being discussed and a list of sources for further research.
