I have watched som of these kids at the same weight for the past two years or better and don't understand how these kide don't grom My kids jump about 8-12lbs per year and about 3-5" height and these kids stay the same. If coaches are trying to keep the kids at one weight with normal groth sizes how can we have the same weight. If you grow and the weight stays the same then your muscle is not growing in proportion.

Some of us just have "little" kids. Mine has put on maybe 3 lbs a year for the last 3 years and not many inches. I have watched others in his weight bracket put on 2 or 3 inches a year and not much more weight. Hunter's just 11 but his muscle definately makes up most of his weight!

My oldest son has gained 6 lbs in 6 years. His coaches have him on 150 calorie a day diet. They also have me chain him up out back of the house between practices & weight lifting. It seems a little much but it keeps him competitive.

Kids are all different! My two kids are built completely different and grow different also. My Oldest gains a lot of weight in the summertime and loses it after he starts football and wrestling practice just because it is tough not because we cut him! The only cutting he has ever done was cutting out candy and pop! He gains between 10-20 lbs in the summer and loses between 5 and 10 during football and wrestling for a gain of about 5-10 lbs a year whereas my youngest could eat everything under the sun and maybe gain 3 lbs a year. My younger son is 20 lbs lighter and about 6-7 inches shorter than my older son was as his age. Any way my point is every kid is different not only in size but also in the way that they wrestle! I think sometimes we tend to forget that! smile

My son wreslted 10U 100 wo years ago then wrestled 10U 95 last year and is wrestleing 12U 110 this year. They all seem to jump in weight different times.

At 12U 110 I think KEvin Folsom has wrestled there some this year. It would not suprise me to see some of the 105 pounders moving around. The 105 pound group is real tough this year.

I guess I just hate the way people always assume that if your kid is a wrestler and loses half a pound you are starving him! LOL Yes there is some of that but not every parent sucks thier kids down just to wrestle and the ones who do often just end up with another stud to battle with other than the one they ran from in the higher weight! lol

Who all is out there at 8U 88. We have been a light 80 pounder all year so I have not really paid attention to the 88 bracket but he is in the middle of a growth spurt and since I can't convince him that it is not necessary to eat every single day we may have to consider moving up.

How bout 8 under 76? Numbers have been low at every tournament we've been to. Lot of kids jumping around due to growth spurts, ect and have seen a lot of kids at this weight that are around 71 - 72lbs also, including mine. Were not going to worry bout the weight as he started the year right at 75.

Thanks for the info. Hendrickson is from Newton and is probably the top dog. Hopefully this growth spurt will wait another month so we can stay at 80 but figured i better do my homework just in case.

How Much has dylan gained in the last week? they say you can watch that and judge how much he will gain depending on the spurt itself. My son has just been average 5-7 pounds every year. The only good thing is that these spurts have seem to come in the summer rather than in the spring. I hope he can stay at 80 as well we were looking forward to seeing how we would stack up at districts.

He has been between 76 and 77 all season until 2 weeks ago he weighed 78 for Haysville weigh in and last week for Ulysses he weighed 79.6. This week he is been between 78.5 and 80 everyday. If he stays in this range next week we will stay at 80. We have not wrestled much in this area this year who else is in d4 at 80?

There is Andrew Garcia (Garden City),Judson Wiltfong (Norton), Treylan Gross (Phillipsburg), Matthew Kirkendall (Stafford), and probably more but these names stick out to me as regulars for the d-4 area.
