love your vids

[@Mrbeachtold1234]

Congratulations dude u deserve it 🎉🎉🎉❤❤ I wrestle too and I love the sport Hardest sport out there ☝️☝️

[@scourge8097]

Awesome man. Nick and Craig seem like he's got you guys peaking at the right time. Looking great. I think you could add a few 10-12 seconds to your RT on some of those escapes with some mat returns that you're good at. Those come in huge at the Nationals. And I think you're missing an opportunity on that front head, but damn, that shot has come along so well. Quick, clean finishes. Doubles. And more than anything, just outworking the other guy. You're catching a leg and then just chasing the other. Also, outstanding scrambles. I can tell you don't love scrambles. I hated being out of position(which is necessary for a scramble) but your chain wrestling is great and...get the job done. I think you're ready to finish near the top of the podium this year. And 2 more years left(3 maybe...with the Covid year?)...I'm definitely seeing a NC coming around the corner.

whats the song called in the begging

[@Vortex1x1x1x]

Dude thank you so much for inspiring me I want to join my high schools wrestling team next season (in my sophomore year) any tips on how to prepare over the summer? I am already pretty fit and workout 4-5 days a week but have no wrestling experience.

[@kchall5]

Dude, you are just a totally different wrestler from last year. Your offensive arsenal has expanded greatly. Last year it seemed like your offense was mainly single leg attacks, and now its slide-bys, ankle picks, blast doubles, fireman's carries, etc. And your defense is on point. I hope you go far in nationals.

[@CaydenHenschel]

Means a lot!

[@ChunkyLover420]

I would say that his best improvement on last year is his ability to scramble and end up in a advantageous position… Last year it seemed like once they got a good hold on your leg then they would take you down… That’s completely different this year

[@oreos2653]

@@CaydenHenschel whats your workout you do for like strength and stuff maybe a video on that

[@mauricioglass3449]

Nah he winning nationals

[@shadowlimes66]

He just has to focus on his top game, kinda just sits behind the legs and rides out time... His offense on his feet is nasty and quick but near fall points would help a lot

[@averygaming8707]

Revenge tour continues after going 0-2 last season. Now champion onto the next tournament 141lbs 💪🏿💪🏿

[@CaydenHenschel]

Oh ya!!!

[@ApexWrestlingHighlights]

It’s crazy how time flies, and there’s proof that hard work pays off. I remember when Cayden didn’t make the starting spot, and went 1-3 his first year in college wrestling. Now he’s a Super Region Champ and is ranked No.4. True 🐐

[@connorarmstrong9020]

Cayden you really inspire me my start of my wrestling career started last year and I thought I was pretty good but then I got into hs and made varsity and had a pretty rough year didn't qualify for sectionals but I'm ready to come back next year as a 10th grader and continue the journey and make it to state and you've really helped keep me motivated thanks man keep up the good work

[@CaydenHenschel]

Love to hear it, keep it up

[@timothyrice9161]

This is why it’s awesome to finally have a great wrestling KZbinr. Shows the in and outs of a wrestling season, good times and bad times and it shows how consistent hard work and passion can drastically improve your skills. Awesome to watch all of last season and the see your improvement this year. So awesome! Congrats man! I’ll be pulling for you at nationals

[@bergretrobowl]

Thanks Cayden, I've been running at 6:00 AM nearly 2-4 miles each time, lifting, working harder in practice, and overall performing better due to your inspiration. I manged to take first at my regional tournament on Saturday, and am ready to wrestle sectionals. Thanks so much for posting! EDIT: Took second, state run time baby!

[@Uyeo]

Good luck

[@ethan_fitness4150]

Yo how do you keep track of the distance you run do you got a app for it or something?

[@Uyeo]

@@ethan_fitness4150 yea probably an app

[@lebooselover978]

Honestly I think running distance is pointless for wrestling. Do sprints. It mimics the short explosiveness of wrestling.

[@bergretrobowl]

@LebooseLOVER97 I mainly do it to increase my overall stamina level, I do agree though and am gonna increase it

[@cn4127]

your takedowns are truly outstanding! If you could get a little riding time and a few backpoints here and there youll be unstoppable. Congratulations , hope you take nationals.

[@DevinciElite]

What exactly is riding time? My kids are still in AAU and I don’t believe riding time is a factor for them.

[@chasewimbish9137]

@@DevinciElite in college a running clock is kept through the match to keep track of the amount of time that either wrestler is in control. A "riding time" point is awarded at the end of a match if a wrestler has over one minute of total time in control.

[@shadowlimes66]

I agree with this so much, on his feet he is always attacking but once he gets a takedown he kinda slows down, just rides behind the hip, not attacking.

[@DevinciElite]

@@chasewimbish9137 thanks for explaining that for me!

[@steventhury8366]

You had me literally turning and twisting in my chair Cayden. Great match in the finals!

[@georgewallace103]

You took the words out of my mouth. I was twisting and turning watching the final match as well. Cayden is fun to watch, aggressive on his feet!

[@jaxonpaulson]

Your my inspiration you’ve taught me a lot as a wrestler my self and I just want to say thank you for posting vids

[@CaydenHenschel]

I appreciate that!

[@jaxonpaulson]

@@CaydenHenschel no problem just keep doing what your doing

[@superman198224]

Congrats! This is a big deal. Putting yourself out there on KZbin probably just adds extra pressure and you have flourished this season.

[@CaydenHenschel]

Yep, Thank you!

[@papasitoz7891]

Been following you for just about a year now and I want to congratulate and thank you for allowing us to be a part of your journey. Nothing has been given to you. You have fought to everything you have and this is the key to what will make you a successful individual in our society. Keep up the great work young man. You are truly an inspiration.🙌🏼🤩

[@Vhantaa]

Cayden you inspire me to push myself harder and harder in the gym and on the mat. I’m so happy about your victory and it inspires me to keep trying to be like you💪

[@CaydenHenschel]

Love to hear it

[@itsparrhouseclips5780]

The table workers there were literally the best I’ve ever seen. Also watching you live was one of the best experiences I’ve had watching wrestling. Great tourney!

[@michaelmiller4777]

Going from 13-12 to 25-3 the following year great improvement

[@justlookupman676]

You know one thing I appreciate about you is your from Wisconsin and you make a lot of videos about your college that gives a parent an idea 💡 of what the college wrestling experiences is like and I can see you bringing a lot more athletes to the School of the Future. Thank you for taking the time

[@krimbeenhim]

From goin 0-2 last year to not just placing but winnin the entire thing is OD. Just shows hard work beats talent when talent stops working hard. Best of luck at nationals!

[@Webinho7]

That finals match was sick. Your offense vs his scrambles was awesome

[@Blackbelt9]

Truly Inspiring. Your crazy progress over the past two seasons is insane. Definitely motivating me to hit the gym in the offseason. 😂

[@coachstick2302]

Great job Cayden! My son and I have been following you since high school. He’s still wrestling but baseball has become his new fave. He made majors this year at age 10 (ahead of schedule.) Your talks on setting high standards and pushing yourself to achieve them have been a huge inspiration. Thank you. You are truly great!

[@sheluvsmat2690]

Hard work pays off, congrats Cayden🙌🏾

[@CaydenHenschel]

Appreciate it!!

[@cuepor]

You’re an inspiration, Cayden. Didn’t even make it past divisionals this year due to a low gas tank, but after a couple weeks of thought, I’m going to be continuing wrestling in the off season and in college as I haven’t proved myself yet

[@fadedum5007]

Man cayden your a legend. You grew so much in wrestling, and went from losing half and half to being one of the top wrestlers around. You inspired me and I went from losing all my tournaments with a barely positive record, to winning 8-9/10 of my matches and going to states. I just really wanna thank you and let you know how great I think you are and how much u influenced me

[@Fullsendfilosophy]

The great part about the wrestling mindset of showing up and putting in the work. It goes past wrestling, goes into life. It taught me how to show up and put in work everyday at work. It’s the reason that I am a guy, with no college degree I graduated high school, joined the Marine Corps and fast forward 6 years later have a great civilian career that I am working hard in and making more than most lawyers.

[@cwaite487]

Dude. Thank you for this channel. My son is 7 and has been wrestling very well the past two years. We watch your videos and he gets pumped. I learned too late that anyone can be a champion if they really try. Glad you understand this at your age. Keep getting after it

[@cultbender]

so proud of you cayden!!!!! on to nationals!

[@joshuamarish4765]

This young man is the definition of wrestler. He works hard. When he comes up short no excuses. He works to improve. Watched his content in high-school when he missed stayed and came back the next yr and became a state champion

Young man... I watch a lot of Freestyle and NCAA wrestling during the months of wrestling season. I was a pretty good high school wrestler 1967-71 and later a personal techniques coach for several high school wrestlers 2005-10. All that aside, I want to commend you on your Channel and your very professional and entertaining delivery of your experiences as a D-2 NCAA wrestler. I have been following your Channel for a few months now and I have come to see what a dedicated young man you are to the sport that you love. You train hard and with purpose. You relax and enjoy yourself "moderately". I have a great appreciation for your positive attitude and your amazing skill level. I will most certainly be watching the upcoming NCAA D-1 Conference Tournaments as well as the Nationals. I will also be following your journey to D-2 Nationals. Congratulations on your Super Regionals 1st Place. Good Luck to you.

[@ChunkyLover420]

Your ability to scramble into an advantageous position has Improved so much since last year and I think that might be the big key

[@RC_Channels]

I used to watch you when I wrestled in high school. I've since graduated, but you are pretty entertaining and you remind me of what I miss...

this guy is one of the most hardworking and motivated guy in this sport today your always working your but off you don’t even bet care abt the wins or losses you just always keep on going and that motivates a lot of us out there that want to do a sport or dream job you motivate us to make us know we can do what it takes to reach our goal but real question is if your gonna make a change on your name then you gotta make it happen boss and we all know you can do good luck at National we all know you will do great

[@SaltyArmy]

I've been watching this channel since you had less than 50/100K back in HS when you started this channel. I must say, it's well deserved Cayden! It might've even been longer than that. But nonetheless, you deserve not only all of the success on the mat, but also on these platforms for bringing more awareness/exposure to our greatest sport on the planet. And showing kids that hard work pays off. Congratulations Cayden & See You At The Top! 🥇👏 🏆

[@georgematranga166]

really enjoy that content cayden. i had a partial scholorship to wrestle for central washington out of high school but went to work in an oil field instead. ive always sorta regretting missing the experience. one sugestion that always helped me is when on top and the whistle blows knee dude in the back and chop the wrist hard as u can. breaks him down and u can catch a wrist. hardest guy u wrestle is in ur head. congrats man proud of u

Went to Findlay college in Ohio and didn’t wrestle but lived with two wrestlers and just understand how much of a lifestyle choice this is keep up the fight can’t wait to see you on the podium!

[@celica96]

Your shots are really crisp and explosive. I like how proactive you are especially in the final match. You were pretty much dictating the pace and constantly shooting, and I think your opponent didn't even get to take a shot or at least score off his own shot. Good job and hope you perform well at Nationals. Looking forward to watching the video 2 weeks from now.

[@alaynasolly]

Congrats on making it to nationals! Going from 13-12 to 25-3 is a huge jump. Keep up the work.

[@drewabove572]

I feel like a majority of the guys you wrestle from what I’ve watched, you can easily widen the gap and score more points! Your leg attacks and slide by are smooth!

[@arthuralexander0918]

Great job. You learned to time your attacks on those taller opponents, when they cross their feet! Great!
