Brandon--Effects of Wrestling

Brandon has been at a wrestling clinic this week. His body is getting beat down pretty hard. I forgot just how buised up my boys used to get when they were wrestling full time. This is pretty typical. Left eye bruised
Right eye bruised
Neck and shoulder rashed Arms marked
Back burned
Knees burned
Why boys like this...I do not know. I will say that wrestlers are the most conditioned people around. They have the best cardio available, and are a breed of their own. I can't wait to see some matches!!!

Those eyes have it all, even with bruises!! He has my dads eyes and profile when dad was young........
I hate to see him hurt hiself but you know how the boys love wrestling, be careful Brandon!
Love, Grandma

I don't understand what fun guys find in wrapping their sweaty body around another guys sweaty body all the while getting bascially beat up by the mat. Makes not sense to me!

I'd hate to see what the other guys look like! ;)

They certainly are there own breed! Kenneth comes from a line of wrestlers as well. He doesn't pass a chance to wrestle when it presents itself. Or when the young men undermine just how awesome he is at wrestling. lol. I say bring on the bruises! =)

I don't know cause I am still trying to decide, but I think this was just an excuse to show off some lovely muscles!! Lookin' good!

That's brave, going into something where you KNOW you are going to need more than just a few band-aids afterwards. It is great that your boys are so talented, though!
