EVAD
EVAD for wrestlers

Practice is already
the hard part.

Live wrestling is brutal conditioning and your coach already runs it. So EVAD's lifting is short and heavy — strength, pulling, grip, and neck — and its wrestling rules tell it not to bolt conditioning on top of what the room already did to you. It counts practice as real load when it sets your lifting frequency, and it peaks you for the date you name.

The rules EVAD follows

What it builds — and what it refuses to add.

NEVER

Extra conditioning

Live goes, drilling, and hard practice already cover it. Bolting a conditioning block on top is how wrestlers get slower in February, not fitter.

NEVER

Technique work

The mat belongs to your coach. EVAD writes what happens in the weight room and leaves the room alone.

BUILDS

Strength that holds

Heavy, low-rep work on the main patterns. In-season the goal is keeping the strength you built, not chasing new maxes between duals.

BUILDS

Pulling, grip, and neck

The three that decide hand-fighting and scrambles — trained deliberately instead of hoped for.

ACCOUNTS FOR

Total weekly load

Practice volume is treated as real load — it sets the lift frequency EVAD recommends for your week and keeps heavy work off competition day and the day before. A lift can still share a day with practice: EVAD writes the lift only, never your coach's session, and leaves the timing of the two to you.

ADAPTS

After a hard practice

Tell it how practice went and how you feel, and it offers a lighter next session — with the cuts listed — before you commit to it.

Why it fits

A season is long. The plan should know that.

Preseason, the middle of a dual schedule, and the two weeks before a conference tournament are three different training problems. EVAD builds them as different blocks instead of handing you one routine to run from November to March — heavier when there's room, lighter when the room is taking everything, and backing off as the bracket approaches.

"I don't touch your coach's practice. I make sure you show up to it stronger." — COACH EVAD

Start

Build your block.

A few minutes of setup — your practice schedule, your equipment, your tournament calendar. Every answer is editable before you build, and the account comes last.
