He is, without question, the most famous American wrestler ever. He’s also the most successful college coach in any sport in NCAA history. He won nine straight NCAA Championships and 15 in a 21-year stretch, while serving as a head coach at the University of Iowa. When people find out that I wrestled for, and coached with Dan Gable for 15 years, they always ask the same question. What was Gable like?

Mental Toughness in Wrestling by Jon McGovern - University of DuBuque

By Jon McGovern

 

In wrestling we learn through physical conditioning to become physically tougher through the sport. You learn to work through pain, muscle soreness, and fatigue. In essence you become a tougher person through the sport of wrestling by never quitting. By definition the word toughness means strong and resilient and able to withstand great strain without tearing or breaking. Wrestlers that endure are tough by definition, so the next step is to turn this physical toughness into mental toughness to optimize one’s potential on and off the mat.

Here is a photo album we started. We have added the entire line up. Check it out and then post a comment under this blog posting.

The Tyrint III will retail for around $60 and the Attak's will move up the pricing scale to around $100.

The Attak's are made of better material and technology thus the move up in price point.

The New John Smith shoes are going to be the high end shoe with a price tag around $118. There will be two colors of the John Smith shoes. They will be worth checking back here frequently. We may add them sooner then expected...

For the most part Asics, will be bringing back most of this years collection with a new high end shoe replacing the 54. A new Gable that should bring a little fire power to their line up.
