Answer 1

Training

If you want to get big, you need to train big (like you haven't heard this before) so let me break this down. Train 3 - 5 times per week and keep your sessions short. By short I mean under an hour. Train one muscle group per week or every 5 days... do not combine 2 large muscle groups on the same day. Your big muscle groups are chest, back and upper legs. Below are three examples for splits:

3 Day Week

Mond: chest, tris, calves
Wed: back, bis, sholders
Fri: thighs

4 Day Week

Mon: chest, calves
Tue: back, tri
Thur: thighs
Fri: shold, bis

5 Day Week

Mon: chest
Tues: back
Wed: thighs
Fri: sholders
Sat: arms

As you can see no 2 "big" muscles are done on the same day. Now, for excersizes, do compound movements (like you haven't seen this either) such as bench press, shoulder press, rows, squats, and deadlifts first in your workout, and make sure you do the big muscles first as well. As for volume and intensity, these are inversly related, the more volume, the less intensity and vice versa. I like high intensity my self. For reps and sets, shoot to fail between 6-10 reps and if you are training intensly do only 5-8 sets per body part (more sets for the bigger muscles, less for the smaller ones, brain surgery, ehh?).

Next off, what many consider the most important part.

Nutrition:

Being young most of you probably have fast metabolisms (hell, going into my frosh year in high school I used to eat Crisco to gain weight for football, to no avail though). So, here's what you have to do to gain mass: EAT. We're talking every 2 hours if possible, but at least 6 meals a day. Each meal should contain about 17% of your daily requirements for protein and carbs.

As for the ratios of each, shoot for 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight (1.5 if you're really skinny) and 3 gms of carbs for every lb of body weight. This means if you weigh 150 lbs. you need 150 gms of protein per day, 450 gms of carbs per day, turning out to be about 26 gms of protein and 78 gms of carbs per meal. Sorry to make it complicated, but in essence you should have a ratio of 3:1 for carbs:protein per meal. Easy, ehh? Now for fat, as long as it is unsaturated (nuts, veggie oils, fish fats) don't worry about it.

These are necessary to build muscle. I also used to eat very little fat per day at one time trying to lean up for summer. It's not the way to go because you will feel like crap. Your 3 most important meals of the day are breakfast, after you workout, and before bed

Here's an example of what a 150 lb. pound teen should eat per day:

Breakfast:
6 am: 2 cups of oatmeal, 2 cups skim milk, 2 egg yolks, 3 egg whites
9 am: 2 cups yogurt, PB sandwich on 4 slices wheat bread

Lunch:
12 pm: can of tuna mixed in mayo, on 4 slices whole wheat bread, handful of nuts and an apple

Post workout:
3 pm: 2 bananas, protein shake in cup of milk

Supper:
6 pm: 5oz steak, rice, salad

Before bed:
10pm: sugar free pudding mixed in 2 cups milk, bowl oatmeal, 4 eggwhites

This is only an example, it doesn't have to be quite so bland and don't be afraid to eat "wrong" once a week. On a side note, only count whole proteins (dairy, meat, protein shakes).

Rest:

This is perhaps the easiest part to write. Don't overtrain. This means don't spend hours in the gym (we already went over this). Also, there's no need to run or do cardio since we are trying to get big. I'm not saying exclude it from your life, pick up games are fun, just don't purposely run the tread mill or ride the cardio bike. Make sure to use your days off as rest days, and get at least 8 hours of sleep per night. Your muscles grow when you sleep, not when your in the gym... in fact, the only time your muscles grow are when you sleep.

Supplementation:

For supplements to work properly the first three aspects must be on track. If your diet, training, and rest are not correct, supplements will do no good. They are like the finishing touches, you can't expect to put furniture into a house if you have no roof or walls, right?

Below are supplements that you SHOULDN'T take, these will screw with your hormone production, possibly giving you bad side effects (just what you need to get chicks: big biceps, little girlly nipples, rat sized nuts, and huge white heads), and should not be taken by young lifters. These supplements might work great for adults with no side effects, but wait until you are older. Supplements to stay away from when you are a teen: DHEA, Growth hormone, Andros, ECAs, Tribulus, any "all in 1" supplements.

Here is what I would reccomend using in order of importance:

Multivitamins- its hard to get enough vitamins from diet alone today
Protein Powders- pretty self explanatory, if you dont have enough protein, you're not gonna gain muscle.
Creatine- helps to volumize muscles, increases endurance and will help you get stronger
Glutamine- most abundant amino in the skeletal muscles, if you dont have enough your body will feed off itself, just make sure if you are taking it with creatine not to take them any closer than 2 hrs apart
Weight gainers- if you're really skinny, these are great to add calories.

Ok, that's my run down on supplements. Now, really quickly how to take them. Multivitamins- just pop them in the morning. Protein- really, can be taken at any time. Most effective after workouts and before bed. Creatine- first 5 days take 5 gms 4 times daily (loading, I'm sure you already know this), after that take it every day (5 gms) for 4 weeks after you workout. Glutamine- make sure you take it 2 hours apart from creatine. Most effective times are first thing in the morning and right before bed.

So there you are, supplements in a nut shell. Another side note... MAGAZINES ARE BULLCRAP. The guys in them spend $1,000's a month on juice and other drugs. This allows them to workout longer and recover faster. Alright, thats it, for all of those who had the patience to read the whole thing down to here, good for you...

Remember: eat big, train big, sleep big and soon you too will be big results come with time and patience.

I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner, a wrestling/bodybuilding article would really help a lot from someone who's been there. So far I've just talked to people individually but so many wrestlers are wanting to bodybuild I decided to write this. It should be short, bodybuilding and wrestling really boils down to a few basic guidelines:

Workouts must be as short as possible while working as many muscles as possible, so short and intense.
Workouts should be infrequent enough so that your wrestling doesn't suffer and you don't lose muscle, but frequent enough to cause your muscles to adapt and become strongers
Don't concentrate on gaining loads on your lifts, focus on stimulating muscle fibers to prevent muscle catabolism, trying to gain on you lifts will only distract from your wrestling which is much more important in seasons
Those are the basic principles, short and intense so you don't overtrain, plenty of rest for the same reason, and focusing on preventing muscle breakdown rather than trying to build yourself up. Those are the principles, but what style of training employs them? Not a traditional bodybuilding approach, something many meatheads don't even discuss because it sounds like a wimpy form of "fitness" not hard-core muscle building. I'm talkin' about circuit training. Where you go between stations without any rest (intensity), do only 1 or 2 sets of an exercise (low volume to prevent overtraining) and you can train the whole body in a short time so you only need to do it once or twice a week (frequency). It also sounds a lot like the HIT philosophy of just 1 or 2 sets to failure of an exercise, with little rest between exercises.
Its simple, a total body routine twice a week if your not under a lot of stress, or if your trying to lose weight to get into you class you should probably just go with once a week. You should try to eat right all the time and stay in your weight class, but I know most wrestlers don't have the discipline for this and just do a "quick fix" the last week or so and crash diet and run constantly, or take diuretics or wear hot clothing to sweat their weight out. That's very unhealthy but I know most of you will do it anyway. The best way to lose weight quickly is to go on a low sodium diet, eat low sodium tuna, plain noodles and rice, etc. I'd go on this diet for about a week, its really strict and very difficult, just read some labels and do some research and you'll find out how much sodium is in most foods. While on this diet I ate a banana or two EVERY day because sodium and potassium play similar roles in the body, except potassium doesn't cause fluid retention, and is much healthier, and bananas contain a lot of potassium. Don't severely restrict your carbs or protein, though you might wanna cut out some fat. You need those carbs and protein so you can concentrate in your match. So, a low sodium, high potassium, low fat diet combined with a total body circuit once or twice a week should help loads with your wrestling strength.

The workout. I'm gonna suggest a workout here but its only a recommendation. Basically you should work the muscles from largest to smallest, in quick succession with each set to concentric failure. Here's what I think is a very good workout for wrestlers:

Squat: 2 sets 6-8, 1 minute rest between each set
Chins: 1 set to failure
barbell rows: 1 set to failure
Arnold press: 1 set to failure
Lateral raises: 1 set to failure
Flat bench: 1 set to failure
French Presses: 1 set to failure
barbell curls: 21's
Calf presses/raises: 2 sets to failure
You probably do plenty of ab work in practice, at least we did, so I won't include that. You should go from one exercise to the next, with no rest. The key is to get in there, hit your muscles, and get out before they start breaking down. You shouldn't ever be so sore during practice that it hinders your performance. You shouldn't get very sore at all unless your just beginning, if you just beginning you might be sore after the first couple workouts but it'll go away so don't worry too much about it. I included calves because strengthening these muscles are important to wrestlers, any time you on your feet your using calves to maneuver and to generate power, so don't throw them by the wayside. You can substitute dumbbell rows for barbell rows, dumbbell presses for bench press, dumbbell curls, skull-crushers for French press, etc. etc. there's a lot of potential for variety so don't get bored. That's about all I have to say about wrestling and bodybuilding, until next time.
