Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Biggest Weight Cut

alright, 2 questions
Who do you know that has made a big weight drop between years? like wrestling 119 as a freshman and 103 as a soph

and.. who has cut the most weight in a year?

i think it has to go for Jerad from Subway, he was too fat to wrestle 275, and the next year, after taking the Subway diet, he wrestled 112.

my freshman year I weighed 136 and got down to 119

Wow!! That's quite impressive. I know a kid who cut 17 in 2 days and Danny Mainus once cut 16 in 2 days. Good for you, but that's not that impressive.

THIS YEAR I WEIGHED 138 AN GOT DOWN TO 112.

My fellow teammate Tim Sprigg came in his freshemn year weighing around 190, and after being sick over christmas break he cut down to 145. it was pretty impressive and only possible because he was quite a little butter ball during football.

Hehe, a butterball indeed!

i believe jerad from subway won jv nationals at 112

last year i went from 175 to 140.

you must have been really fat

my brother's junior year he challenged at 140 and lose, then cut down to 119 cause that was the only spot open. he wrestled that same weight his senior year. Now he weights 160 and is in the best shape of his life

No actually he wasn't all that fat.

i start from about 135 and make 119. I was 16 over two days before the meet and by a miracle of god i made weight.

Clarence Sponsel (if I remember correctly) cut 15 pounds in one day.

Kenny Brown (152 state champ) weighed 175 in the fall and cut to 152.

prant garker cut from about 210 i think it was to 171 not sure if thats correct but close.

i wrestled 189 last year, and this year wrestled 145

As a sophomore in the early 80s (before the days of the "requirement" of a doctor's note to lose more than 10 percent of your weight), I started at 122 and tried to make 98 (this was in the days before the changes in weight classes)...I made it to 100 before I got sick and was forced to eat...

Ended up certifying at 105, but wrestled most of the season at 112 and 119...Even had a few matches at 132 (and won them)...I probably didn't weigh more than 110 after certification...

i cut from 125 to 103 last year and 22 lbs might might not sound like alot but when you think of it in perportion to my origional body weight it is pretty impressive

My sophomore year our 103 pounder went from 130 to 103. He was big.

after the change from heavy weight to 275, i saw a guy go from 340 to 275 so he could wrestle. That's a lot, but it is different when he was cutting fat. Imagine that. It's like a 171 pounder cutting to 112 or 103.
