Wrestling Something that is special to me is wrestling, wrestling is my favorite sport because I really enjoy; I like the work and effort you have to put in and how it's all on you to decide how you do. I have been wrestling since 8th grade, and it has become my favorite sport sense. I will tell you why it is special to me and how it has become my favorite sport and everything you need to know about wrestling as a sport. Wrestling during a match. You don’t need much gear to wrestle, all you need

Wrestling requires two things: those who fear and those who are fearless. Two men face off in a glorified street fight to determine whose hand will be raised and who will receive the pitiful remark-- “good match kid”. As the fearless stare down their opponent from across the mat, the fearful stare down their shoes feeling the icy, petrifying stare of a man who wishes nothing more than to embarrass his opponent in front of everyone he loves plus one hundred others filling the bleachers. From my seven

else matters inside this room besides one thing and that is improving your skills as a wrestler. Unlike a basketball court or a football field, which are used for many different activities, the wrestling room is for work only. Isolated from the rest of the school with a set of heavy metal doors, the wrestling room contains two full sized mats that cover the floor and go halfway up the walls along with a speaker mounted up in each corner. The parts of the walls not covered in mat, are decorated with

Beginning of junior year, as I was walking towards the 8100 building, I was contemplating the fact that I was going to start walking all the way across campus and go up a lot of stairs. It was a hot morning and I was late to class when in the morning announcements they announced off-season practice for wrestling. I was excited because that meant soon I would attend the wresting tournaments again. Whenever

Wrestling has and always will be a big part of my life, that’s not to say I have had a pleasant nor a fair time on the wrestling mat, but I guess life’s not fair. I have always enjoyed wrestling from the first time I stepped foot on a mat in kindergarten in my singlet that was 2 sizes too big, from the last time leaving the mat as a junior in high school limping off the mat in some of the worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life. It’s been in my family for as long as I can remember. My uncle has not

The therapeutic properties of light have a long history. The ancient Indians discovered, in 1,000 BCE that light therapy, in addition to psoralens, a plant compound, could cure vitiligo (Barr, H. et al., 2002). In the early 20th century, Niels Finsen’s and his wife’s treatment of lupus vulgaris with ultra-violet light notably earned them the Nobel Price (Barr, H. et al., 2002). A more modern application of light’s theraputic properties is photodynamic therapy. Photodynamic therapy destroys tumours

danger all for fun and games, maybe because wrestling is the sixth most popular sport in the world, it requires extensive training and full dedication and it has for years. The art of wrestling was found to be dated over 15,000 years ago in the time of the cave man, in France, then through Egyptians and Romans it was changed to be more of a sport than a defensive skill, therefore it was less brutal (“History”). The Egyptians started a style called belt wrestling and the Indians created a loose

The sport of wrestling has been going on for thousands of years. Our earliest ancestors have been known to play the sport. Back in the caveman times in France the drawings have showed us two men grappling and fighting (College Sports). This is showing the two men wrestling. Wrestling to me has been the toughest sport I have had to participate in so far in my athletic career. Why do I call the title ancient you ask, well it’s because wrestling has been on earth for a very long time. Like I

Football season just ended, meaning I had a couple weeks to recoup until my favorite season started--wrestling. Wrestling has run in the family for decades, each generation breaking a record or making it to state. With the few weeks to recoup, I picked up some extra hours at work. I clean at the local YMCA, so I don’t have much interaction with kids or anyone really, but I like it that way. My friend who works the front desk, Jimmie, greets me as I walk in, “Hey Porter.” “Hey Jim,” I give him a quick

In 1962, Norman Cousins wrote an essay about the dangers that came with sport of boxing called “Who Killed Benny Paret?”. His essay focused on a match that resulted in the death of a boxer named Benny Paret. The Investigations on Paret's death reflected on many aspects, such as the role of the referee who did not act in time to stop the fight, the doctor's examinations if he was really fit, the opponent who did not stop when Paret did not respond to his punches, and Paret's manager and boxing authorities
