They can try to make weight until time is up. If they miss the first time, they can do all the last minute weight losing rituals that have been around since the beginning of time (wrestling time). Spit, poop, pee, run with lots of extra articles of clothing on, cut their toe nails, shave their head, etc. Although I cut plenty of weight in high school (back in the day - see Vision Quest), I have never asked my son to cut more than 1 1/2 pounds at the end of the year. Since he has always been very lean, losing even a pound is difficult.
