“Mindset Training has made a huge difference in our son’s development as a wrestler as well as in other key areas of his life like school. Sophomore year was a huge disappointment for my son as he went from placing 6th at states as a Freshman to not placing at all. He just was not wrestling up to his potential. We set him up with Wrestling Mindset the next week. After a year of Mindset training, it was clear that Max was a different person. Confident, calm, and expecting to win. Junior year ended as a PIAA state finalist in a deep bracket, and he fully believes that he will be state champ next year.”
