Professional wrestling is one of those hobbies that I've been invested in for many years, so I feel like I have a good idea of what's good and bad in the business. I like to think that I enjoy it overall but that doesn't mean I can't speak my mind when something seems off. Nutrition suited for workouts should be seen throughout but there are points when I have to cry foul. It becomes especially bad when I see these performers try to work and they appear tired because exercise wasn't done enough.

When you get into this kind of business, or any which involves athletics, the nutrition suited for workouts should be seen more than just about anything else. People can work out well but I think that it takes a greater mindset to look at the way you eat and make changes to accommodate the exercise you do. It seems like this is a given and that companies such as Muscular Development would be able to easily relay this. However, there were examples in the past that made me scratch my head in wonder.

Matt Hardy, once one of the pioneers of what tag team wrestling could be about, slowly sank in terms of value. There were personal and physical matters which impeded him and he let himself go to an extent. It seemed like he didn't care about going to the gym as much anymore and his match quality suffered as a result. I believed that he was one of the better grapplers but it was almost like these changes caused him to become lazy in the ring.

What I've learned, though, is that not all wrestlers who seem out-of-shape have to be sluggish and tired. Bam Bam Bigelow, to me, is one of the finest big man wrestlers of all time and he didn't need a bodybuilder form to be capable. He was able to move at the pace of a light heavyweight, pulling off moonsaults as if it were second nature. It's clear that this level of conditioning made him into such a capable monster inside of the ring.

Nutrition suited for workouts should be found in just about any wrestler's regimen. While I'm not going to deny that some focus on aesthetics should be present, I feel like it's important for these athletes to stay in shape in all facets so that they can actually produce results in the ring. The matches that Ryback and the Rock competed were either very short or too extensive for their own good. I'm all for larger-than-life figures in this profession but they shouldn't take precedence over legitimate ability.
