Despite a growing body of evidence admonishing the behavior, weight cutting (rapid weight reduction) remains prevalent among wrestlers. Weight cutting has significant adverse consequences that may affect competitive performance, physical health, and normal growth and development. To enhance the education experience and reduce the health risks for the participants, the ACSM recommends measures to educate coaches and wrestlers toward sound nutrition and weight control behaviors, to curtail "weight cutting," and to enact rules that limit weight loss.
尽管越来越多的证据警示这种行为，但减体重（快速减轻体重）在摔跤运动员中仍然很普遍。减体重会产生重大的不良后果，可能会影响比赛成绩、身体健康以及正常的生长发育。为了提升教育体验并降低参与者的健康风险，美国运动医学学会建议采取措施，对教练和摔跤运动员进行合理营养与体重控制行为方面的教育，减少“减体重”行为，并制定限制体重减轻的规则。
