I was apart of the GC team that weighed in and competed 3 days in a row and I have to say I think it was better in the long haul. It definitely built up our mental toughness. I remember I had a few pounds to lose for each weigh-in but I got it off and so did the rest of my teammates. Plus we all got in the extra match against a then high ranked team. We wanted to prove how tough we were by doing it. An actual example of preparing us for state was that one of my teammates lost at that Thursday night dual and then came back and beat that same opponent in the state tournament. 3 days of weigh-ins are tough, but manageable. Correct me if I'm wrong but don't wrestlers competing at the NCAA championships have to weigh in 3 days in a row, and being in Nebraska I learned their state tournament is 3 days long requiring 3 days of weigh-ins.
