The trip thus far. by Matt Gentry

Thursday, April 19, 2007 at 06:14
I'm exhausted. And jet-lagged and trying to stay up so that I don't wake up at 5 AM again. I guess I'll start with the flights, which weren't too bad. I lucked out and had the seat next ...

So I've been getting a lot of questions about the process and what the nationals all means, so I figured I should try and clear things up.

Thanks to everyone who has called or emailed. I appreciate your thoughts.

Nationals by Matt Gentry

Saturday, March 31, 2007 at 17:38
I won!

So I'm pretty happy, needless to say. I didn't wrestle my best, but coming off the ankle injury and not having the momentum and training time that I would have liked, I still felt really great and was ...

I’m not exactly sure, but last year the matches were being webcasted live on the website, www.wrestling.ca . I’m not sure if they will be doing it this year or not, but if interested, you can always check it ...

So for some reason, about 3 days ago I started receiving spam in the comments page. My good buddy Mike, who designed this site said that my blog has been spidered and that a robot is uploading jargon messages ...

Pac-10's by Matt Gentry

Monday, February 26, 2007 at 17:15
I just returned from the Pac-10 wrestling championships last night (early this morning actually). Being a coach is so exhausting, more emotionally draining than physical and I am wiped out today. I slept till almost noon- I haven’t ...

Wednesday, December 06, 2006 at 21:53
I was asked some questions about my training and how I train in mini cycles that fit into an overall training plan. Specifically it was about how I usually work out 3 days on, one day off. I ...

NYAC Wrap Up by Matt Gentry

Wednesday, November 22, 2006 at 18:32
Well, again I have mixed feelings about the tournament.

I ended 2-2, and feel that I wrestled well, but bottom line is I didn’t get it done. I started off wrestling the Russian, who apparently is quite good. He ...
