Greco-Roman wrestling is an amateur grappling style with historical origins in ancient Rome and Greece. This combat sport is among the most ancient, having originated thousands of years ago. Greco-Roman wrestling strictly forbids the use of the legs for tripping or executing holds; techniques may only be executed with the upper body and arms. This particular approach prioritizes the execution of throws, takedowns, and holds while upright. By holding the opponent's shoulders to the mat or earning points for various maneuvers and controlling positions, matches are typically decided. Greco-Roman wrestling is a globally recognized Olympic discipline that is actively engaged in for both competitive and recreational purposes.
