*bump*


Any boardsies go back more than the two or three times reported in the last few pages.

I found a MMA club on my doorstep last summer and have done about 15-20 amateur wrestling sessions since which have been brilliant but I tempted to give the pro wrestling a go...

I think that Dick Mcsavage was the only guy who became a regular. Haven't seen him around here in ages, I hope he's made it as a Pro and had a couple of matches.

Thanks dude.

Anyone know what happened to those who went to the first 2 or 3 nights?
Was it too physically demanding, too time consuming, too expensive?

Hats off to those who had the balls to go and give it a lash all the same

Can't speak for anyone else obviously, but I work every other Sunday and every other Wednesday night, so I wasn't able to give it my full attention.

It was physically demanding, could hardly walk the next day, but I loved that side to it, I was buzzing for days afterwards.

Not too time consuming or expensive, think they train two days a week for around 50 quid a month for lessons from professional trainers, Phil Boyd and Jordan Devlin have recently wrestling in Japan for Zero One. Can't speak highly enough of them and Justin Shape/Ternet.

I have trained in BJJ/sub, done a bit of amateur, and have a rugby background. Bodybuilding is currently my passion. I have also done two intensive weeks of pro wrestling training (chain for the most part), as well as one or two weekend camps. Always fully intended to build on this but life kicked in and moved down here to the South East. If a pro wrestling school opened down this direction (i.e. Waterford/New Ross) I'd be back at it like a bullet. Best cardio imaginable and great thing now in my case is I am sculpting a strong, impressive body which I reckon can withstand the pain and give as good as it gets.
