Designed for the serious wrestler who desires
a highly competitive and intense training experience. All
aspects of the sport will be covered, with special attention paid
to the psychological and physical development of each wrestler.
Campers will be exposed to the training techniques of some of the
world’s most accomplished wrestlers. During the weeks of June
28-July 2 and July 12-16, intensive campers will have the opportunity
to test their newly acquired skills by competing against teams from
the team concept camp. This camp represents an excellent opportunity
to really learn how to train like, and become a champion. Train
like the best, with the best!
For 2009, many of the Intensive Camp sessions
will be held in the new Friedman Wrestling Center. This facility
features three mats, air-conditioning, a weight training facility,
training room and video review room.
Held on Cornell's hilltop campus,
the Intensive camps features a run/lift session at 7:00 a.m. each
morning. Wrestlers face the challenge of Buffalo St. and Cascadilla
hills! After breakfast campers receive instruction and drill new techniques.
The afternoon sessions includes hard drilling and live wrestling,
while the evening sessions are dedicated to open wrestling and education
about: goal setting, mental preparation, conditioning methods, nutrition
and proper weight loss.
