Yojo Uetake was excellence on the mat. After his college career ended he was a Grad Assistant at OSU. I know from friends back then he would get frustrated as the wrestlers could not keep up with him doing his workout and warmup routines.

Anyone have video of him doing these they can share?

Not an answer to your question, but this was a fun interview with him about 10 years ago.  What he has to say is still very relevant. Good guy. When he came back to wrestling after being gone 30 years, he was an assistant high school coach.

Its wonderful how most of the absolute killers in our sport are sweethearts.  I think its cause you are typically humbled a million times before you get really good.

Yep... loved the part in his interview where he was brought to tears by the standing ovation at his last home match and how fun it was to coach high school kids. A true legend. 

Edit: Can you imagine being one of the those HS kids with an old guy walking in the room and thinking you are going to smash this senior citizen...haha.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
