Hi,
So I am a junior in high school, and have never wrestled before, but I've always a keen interest in doing so. I previously did Tae-Kwon-Do for a good 3 years or so, obtained black belt, blah, so I do have some experience with controlled hand-to-hand (though a different sort). I work out every day, lifting more on each machine each day and I also run cross country.
Do you think it is a good decision to join up this year? I really want to try it, but I feel like my lack of experience is really bad. I don't know how to wrestled, really, at all. I probably won't be 'used' I suppose, until I know how... but it's always been something I want to try. How difficult is it to pick up? And can I just have some advice with pursuing this?
One more factor. I am a girl. And the first girl to ever join up in the history of my high school. Thoughts?
