In the recent Bethlehem Holiday Classic, Two NJ Wrestlers clashed in the finals, Andrew Campolattano of Bound Brook and Mike Evans of Blair Academy.

Andrew Campolattano was 100-0 going into the tournament and Mike was a Beast of the East Champion.

Since late August, Blair Wrestlers have been going through specialized workouts as Coach Buxton and I consult on an almost daily basis.

The New program has made the Blair Wrestlers faster, stronger, more explosive and better conditioned.

When the workouts were first implemented, Mike Evans was actually struggling through them. Like anything else, with practice and commitment, he overcame and is now dominating the workouts that are coming his way.

BIG Lesson # 1: Most wrestlers, and athletes in general skip in season workouts and treat it as if it is not important. This is a HUGE mistake, especially if you end up competing against an Underground trained athlete who IS following a time tested system.

Here is some footage of Blair training at The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ…. You can see BIG Mike Evans in there tearing it up as well…..

Another BIG Lesson here is the way Andrew handled his loss. He was upset that he lost, but he did not throw a fit, he didn’t cry or make excuses, instead, he got busy the very next day and went to wrestling practice.

This loss is perhaps the BEST thing that ever happened to Andrew. It will fire him up and push him to even greater levels of intensity, commitment and desire.

Who knows, perhaps Andrew will also make the trek to The Underground, Bound Brook is a lot closer to Edison, NJ than Blair is.

But, for the dedicated, distance doesn’t matter, excuses are not made, only action is taken and desire to win followed by massive action is what builds champions.

Congrats to Mike on this victory, AND, congrats to Andrew for being a true champion with sportsmanship and getting back into the practice room the very next day.

My old Wrestling Coach from high school is back in the game, coaching at the high school level again.

Problem is, he works the kids too hard.

You’re not allowed to work kids hard nowadays.

The kids will quit.

Their parents will complain to the administration and you’ll be out of the job.

Hard Work isn’t valued as it once was. Expectations are less and people are always worried about offending others.

Boo Hoo.

This is why I run my gym the way I do. You don’t work hard, you’re GONE.

I don’t encourage mediocrity or allow excuses to be made.

Today’s Generation needs a change.

You’re either part of the problem or part of the solution. Make up your mind.

Most athletes do NOTHING extra. Not even an extra inch. They get discouraged because they think they need to go the extra mile.

Before you go the extra mile, you need to go the extra inch.

Watch and Learn…..

The speech given above doesn’t just apply just to football players, but for ALL NJ ATHLETES!

Here’s what I KNOW:

- 8 kids just quit a high school wrestling team because it was too hard. Their Coach is actually my old high school wrestling coach. He was awesome…. sounds like he STILL is awesome.

- It’s a sign of the times. Most athletes don’t wanna do any extra. They want facebook, cell phones, video games and fast food. I call this the pussification of the human race.

- Many Varsity athletes can not perform these basic physical tasks:

A) 50 push ups

B) 10 pull ups

C) Jump Rope

D) 10 Bodyweight Squats with proper form

I have more “basics” to add to the above list, BUT, movements such as push ups should be a staple in every athlete’s daily ritual.

- Most athletes skip breakfast because they don’t have time. Translation: “I’m too lazy and not dedicated enough to wake up early and cook myself my own breakfast.

It’s time for athletes to start working on inches.

Here’s an 8th grader training at The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ.

Last Spring he broke his wrist and had to get his hand and wrist reset in place. In June, Dylan could barely carry a pair of 36 lb Kettlebells.

Below, he swings an 88 lb Kettlebell and carries a pair of 88 lb Kettlebells!

Dylan’s main sport of focus is Football, BUT, he also wrestles to improve his conditioning, athleticism and mental toughness.

Young athletes should engage in a variety of sports as well as a properly organized training program, which is what we do for the many middle school athletes who train with us at The Underground Strength Gym.
