particular attention to these parts until
you feel that they are as strong as the
rest of your body. After this has been
accomplished You are fairly upon the

II you want to wrestler you must have

one Of his muscles must be well developed.
In addition to all this he must learn to
be quick-quIck on his feet and quick With
his hands and arms. Different forms OF

headwork as others. Perhaps the boxer
has more need for clear, cool headwork.
