Pre ordered!!!

When the athlete believes characteristics of the training style matter, they do, regardless of the training style. When they don't and instead focus on being prepared, whatever the training characteristics style, they usually fair better psychologically. From a non-cognitive or non-conscious standpoint, the less organized preparer is preparing their mind or getting their mind in the habit of adapting to uncomfortable situations whether they realize it or not. So when the need arises to adapt, the athlete who is less organized doesn't have to think very much and can respond more creatively and quickly. While the more rigid preparer hasn't created the neural pattern of adapting to uncomfortable situations and must think in the moment in order to respond. That's how I analyze it and think about it (with some help 😉). Maybe I'll read the book. But I'm more about imbalance. The way I look at it, nothing happens there's balance. Appropriate inbalance given the situation can move mountains. That's where I live to get things done. Good stuff.

You're an inspiration.

?? If Marine Le Pen would have been President of France, then no Olympic Games? I thought that the point of the Olympic Games is *TO PUT POLITICS ASIDE* ..... so maybe rename this thing to *THE POLITICAL GAMES* so that way we know. Anycountries that President Biden/Harris (USA) does not like is AUTOMATICALLY out of the Olympic Games. Maybe put a banner so that it is clear!!??

In my opinion you would have been a great choice to star in the mandolin!! I could see you in all that armor

When is the book coming out? I’ll definitely buy a copy or two

Yeah why is wrestling considered "Amateur wrestling". That doesn't even make sense. It's elite, world class talent that can out condition any other sport in the planet. What's "amateur" about that?

You know why im not upset...because its a nation of terrorists

This came right on time, gotdamm.

Figuring this thing out. Thanks!

An impeccable video.

thanks for the wisdom thanks man

A mentor should give advice which is future oriented (ex. Let’s work on your cardio next month). Criticism, constructive or not, focuses on the past

Priceless wisdom! 🙏 HUA

Great Dave Shultz t-shirt picture for this topic...Dave honed the craft, if not artistry, of mentorship engaging with, and supporting, in a host of circumstances, Mark Shultz...both suburb talents...one versatile mentor...and, from what I understand through Mark's book, he fondly cherishes that memory...

I was brought up, and tried to pass to others, you can do whatever you put your mind to.

Dan Gable said it 40 years ago, stay middle of the road. He learned it from someone else along the way.

Why else will the US win 3 or 4 medals? Because the Russians aren’t there….if the were, they would win 6 Greco and 5 FS medals.

6:45 If we hadn't assisted RVN, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines would be communist right now, probably a part of China actually. Hell it might have even strengthened China enough for them to win the Sino-Vietnam war and that would be part of China too.

Ben- make the pro league. You would be the best representation and mind for it!!

Flo needs to start the pro league. They already have the paid subscription. Even if they bumped it up $50/year and then included all the pro league fights it would be worth it. There’s a lot of big money out there that wants to see wrestling. If there’s NIL money, then there’s more where that came from

I hate that sport is politicized but the fact of the matter is, since the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, it is. Mexico City 1968, Munich 1972, Moscow 1980, Los Angeles 1984, Sochi 2014, etc.. Athletes become the pawns.

Well said Ben!

They should wrestle in CLAW.

Bens looking skinny! Did he finally get in shape? Started TRT?

The wrestlers aren't doing what their governments are and you can't tell someone not to support their country. Here's a little story. In 2003, the United States attacked Iraq and ended up killing about 500,000 Iraqis. There was no reason for that attack. It was all based on information the government KNEW to be false at the time. They didn't do 9-11, there was no yellow cake or babies in incubators. It was all BS. Americans supported their troops as they are literally their families. Did the US go to the 2004 Olympics? the 2008 Olympics? Hypocrisy is always hypocrisy.

Ben you keep railing about startimg a pro league. CLAW is literally that. Get involved. Put your name behind it and help give it some publicity

No one likes it, but they made the decision not to go. How many decades did they get away with using performance enhancing drugs?? To me they won a lot of the Gold Medals they did because their athletes were using them and the Russian Government did everything in their power to hide and mask this.

People need to remember that living in Russia is nothing like living in the US or England or most countries really, their athletes do not have the freedoms ours do! For them it can be like you take this substance and compete or your family does not eat or they send the athlete to jail. We are talking about a country that has made many journalists disappear for writing things against the Russian government and they do not even try to hide it! It is a different world over there and their athletes have to do what they are told or else, and it is not the athletes fault what their government is doing but there is no way they can speak out against it because there is no freedom of speech in Russia! People are so spoiled living here in the US and have no idea what other places are like!

some of these athletes are openly supporting the war and eradicating the ukrainian people.

They aren’t allowed at the Olympics.. that sucks. When has the USA ever been held away from the Olympics for being in a conflict. I bet I can’t find other countries in conflict right now that will be at the Olympics. What a petty way to flex your power over global politics. Oh well, I hope Russian athletes can find some way to compete.

The Olympics are fake and lame.

I’m with Benjamin on this topic

I hate it, too.

Russia is a bunch of drug cheats.

Does the IOC have an alternative agenda with this ruling? Less eyes, less interest. More of reason for them to try to remove it again. Seems fishy

Ben is missing one big point NBC is pulling the strings not the IOC . NBC pays the bill it’s their Olympics. They hate the male toxic sport of wrestling.Thats why they tried to get rid of it. They cut the weights to 6. The only reason they’ve held back is because of women’s wrestling. NBC HATES Putin. They will not let him bask in 2 or 3 Gold medalists.So they attack the innocent athletes. Vindictive bastards, boycott the NBC Olympics!!

Thanks for everything that you have done for wisconsin wrestling and the kids you are making into great men and women..

A point I might add about the U.S. Going to Vietnam, vs Russia “visiting” Ukraine is that Vietnam was fairly split among U.S. involvement in the war. 95% of Ukrainians want Russia out. You could ask the same question for Afghanistan and Iraq too and your answer would be the same. Russia isn’t in Ukraine for liberation.

Hi bennie

Ben being very prophetic, and it turns out very accurate. Too bad he has no interest in becoming a college head coach. He's a smart dude. I wouldn't worry about Coleman Scott. He will eventually be offered a head coaching job, or an assistant coach at a high level program because of who he is. When he took the job at OSU he stated that he was not told he would be the next head coach. He said John Smith and he only talked a little about that before he accepted the job. But in reality, no one leaves head coaching job to be an assistant coach unless they expect to be the next head coach. And most fans realized John Smith was looking tired and not having high level success lately, so his time at OSU was about over.
