Summary
Wrestling as much as any sport requires a special type and level of courage. The arduous training, periodic weight cutting, and public arena for performing are challenges that intimidate all but a special breed of athlete. And that is not to mention the sport's very essence: facing off against an opponent who wants to do nothing less than dominate you physically, destroy you emotionally, and humiliate you mentally. Wrestling Tough is a unique look at the stuff that has characterized the greatest competitors to ever take the mat.

From there he details how and when these attitudes, thoughts, and behaviors manifest themselves in the training room and in competition."--Provided by publisher
