THIS BOOK IS THE BEST TEACHING TOOL ON THE ART OF WRESTLING THAT IS OUT THERE. BEFORE THIS BOOK I HAD NOT WON ANY MATCHES. WHEN I FINALY USED THE TECHNIQUES FROM IT, I HAVE NOT LOST SINCE. NOW THE OLYMPIC PEOPLE ARE TALKING TO ME ABOUT WINNING THE GOLD FOR AMERICA. MY LIFELONG DREAMS HAVE ALL BEEN FULFILLED THANKS TO THIS BOOK.
Format:Paperback
This book from Art Keith is one of the best books on wrestling out there.
It covers all the basics in a logic order. Of course it doesn't contain
all the moves and variations that exist but sure this was not intended with the book. If you look for an encyclopedia you will find it in the book "winning wrestling moves", but in this title hardly any movement sequences are shown.
In "successful wrestling" you can see the movements with more detail.
And to be successful in competition you don't need to know all the moves in existance.
If you can perform high percentage moves with perfection surely this is more helpful. So this book will help you to develop a strong game.
Together with the title "Greco-Roman" wrestling higly recommended!!!

This book trys to explain the basics of wrestling, and how to coach the sport. It skips over many of the basics of the sport. Wrestling is a very complex and difficult sport, and although you must start somewhere, the book fails to recognize this aspect. This book also doesnt flow correctly and is out of order. Overall I would rate this book a one star, becuase it is too simple and most things are obvious even to a beginer.
