Guest wrestler92 Report post Posted November 21, 2007 The body fat tests that most people have done are so unreliable and inaccurate I can't believe that we really do them and trust the results. Many results I have seen you can look at and then easily tell it's not right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

125kid 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 8% at 119.7 i wont be going 112 til after christmasThose numbers yield 118.4 as your minimum weight... how do you figure making 114? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wrestler92 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 maybe it was actually like 8.9%? and kentucky allows a 3% variance to the test, so that drops it another 3+pounds too. i don't like that kids can wrestle a weight without ever hitting the base weight first.Those numbers yield 118.4 as your minimum weight... how do you figure making 114?

So even if you were 7% bodyfat, you would still be allowed to cut 3% of your weight? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wrestler92 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Once someone is under the &% bodyfat naturally that's a whole other story so i don't think the variance applies to them as they are locked into that weight class already.Are you sure about that 3% variance? So even if you were 7% bodyfat, you would still be allowed to cut 3% of your weight? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
125kid 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 Hmm but at 7.1% would you then get the 3% percent variance? Or only 0.1% to get down to 7%? If you're only able to get down to 7%, then I don't know how shawn112 would be able to make 114. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charger Coach 14 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 You can be below 7%. You just need clearance from a physician to participate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
true pioneer 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 Don't you have to be naturally below 7% to wrestle under it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tc125 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 you have to make the base weight at least once to wrestle that weight at state. if you never make 112 then you can't wrestle that at state. even if you make 112 after the raise to 114 you still have to make 112 at least once.

grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted November 24, 2007 Scratch weight does not have to ever be made. Once Christmas comes the weight class changes. Example 103 becomes 105, 171 becomes 173. If you have a skin fold that says the lowest possible weight is 126 then you cannot wrestle 125 until after Christmas. Then you can wrestle 125/127, and compete in the post season at that weight. This is a huge change for many of us old timers. We remember when we had to certify and make scratch weight. Today kids don't have to make scratch. I'm not sure I like it but it is the way it is. It is made this way to protect kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wrestler92 Report post Posted November 24, 2007 I don't like how it is, of course we never used to get any extra pounds either. It was 135 from December 1st until mid February. I do like the body fat testing, but wish it was a little more regulated somehow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
