i'm dating myself, but back in the late-80's chris campbell (olympian) had a great 2 week intensive camp at cornell. it was hard and i couldn't wait til it was over. we had a staph infection breakout, but the highlight was when dan gable came and showed us some pins. i swear i learned habits (diet, meditation, peak training, journaling) there that i still practice today, and i'm 38. wrestling is an amazing sport and it definitely builds character. stay with it as long as you can.
I am signed up for the 14 day. I am a freshman right now, and will be a sophomore after going over the summer. I have only wrestled for one season. I didn't really push myself that hard. I was just wondering, how hard really is this camp? Cause idk if I can do it. Please wright back I need some feedback!
@1kproductions HARD!!! i would only do it if your dedicated to the sport dont do it cause u feel like u shouild do it cause u want to kick ass next wrestling season and u love the sport and nothing can come in the way of it
I did the 28 day camp way back in 2000. The effects of those 28 days still resonate in my life and through the various things I've accomplished - athletically, academically, and professionally. The camp birthed a tenacity and work ethic that has permanently changed my life for the better - thanks JRob and the rest of the staff.
@bmx4life2124 won 1st match and lost next 2 junior and senior year. i beat myself at state senior year. i was ranked 2nd heading into the tourney. anyways, my technique got ridiculously better after jrob. it's expensive, but if you're dedicated and you want to get better, jrob is the place to go for sure.
When i was at camp the dorm we were at someone stole a pillow and nobody knew who did it so a couple of guys went to the store and bought one that looked like that and the coaches knew it wasent the real one but they let us off the hook because we tried good times
I think the last day before we where to finish,someone stole one of the coaches guitar from his room.Nobody fessed up to it,so we got red-flagged.That means we got to wrestle 3 hours straight,wheel barrow runs,suicides,live wrestling..just absolute madness.The funny thing is,is that coach who thought his guitar was stolen,forgot he put in the trunk of his car.Anyway..I can't say enough about how awesome it is to finish this camp and get that "I did it" shirt.
I have to say this..I attended the J.Robinson camp in 1985 which was held at Edinboro University.Dave Dean,Dean Hall,Melvin Douglas,Charlie Heard,Ed Giese,where all there as great coaches.This is by far the single most character defining experience any young man could go through.There where 345 kids at the beginning,and only 167 finished.Kids where leaving left and right the first day.The Johnno run,30 minutes of bleachers with Melvin Douglas,Shark bait with Dave Dean and Dean Hall,a 16 mile run
im thinking about doing the 14 day penn next year. I will be on my high school wrestling team this year, so i will have some sort of experience and this summer i did some stuff with my coach to prepare me for the season. I was wondering if this camp would be good for me, im very willing to work hard and learn alot. Thanks
Is the workout videos form Shaun T Insanity a good way to prepare for the conditioning for this camp? I'm also going to my school wrestling practices.
@manueat - we are not familiar with those videos. for the 10, 14, and 28 day intensive camps, we send out a pre-camp workout. it includes running, weight training, and some wrestling.
if you have any specific questions, please contact the main office and they can send you another copy.
@manueat again, we are not familiar with them. what is on the pre-camp sheet is what you will need to be doing. if you feel that is what the videos offer, then they might be a good fit for you.
Hello i have a question. I am attending 14 day pa which begins on June 20th. I have a Spanish regents on June 22. which means i have to miss the first 2 days of camp in order to take my regent. Do you have any advise on what i should do.
@agbimson we have replied to your emails, please check your junk mail folder. you cannot miss the first 2 days of camp. please call us to change camps or cancel.
@galwrestles4fun you will have to contact our main office and ask sarah...you can email her at the general info account and she will be able to let you know. please specify what camp you are coming to.
I've signed up for the MN 28-day, I have a question. I have decent endurance but I'm really lanky and can't lift too much weight, will I be able to succeed in this camp?
@Geometric805 So in short, absolutely you can succeed, it's more willpower than anything. Just stay positive and push push push. Speaking as someone who has been through military boot camp (navy) i did things i thought i'd NEVER be able to do, the same thing applies here, just stay mentally strong!
we take applications until camp is full. being that this camp is towards the end of the summer, i would say you would want to get your registration in before june. initially we just need the $300 deposit to hold your spot. after that you can make payments at any time and the remaining balance is due 3 weeks before camp begins.
@253Jerk check out our testimonials page...here is an example:
"I'm writing this e-mail the day after I won the Massachusetts Division 1 State Tournament at 171 pounds. This past summer I attended the 14 day J Robinson Camp in Susanville, California and I can honestly say the main reason for me winning my state title was attending this camp. I had been to many camps and clinics before and I always thought I had pushed myself to be the best, but after completing your camp..."

i've really been getting into wreslting the last 2 years. i've been doing off season mat clubs and joined my high school wrestling team. i love wrestling because it has got me in the greatest shape of my life. even though i'm limited on experience, will this camp still be right for me?
this depends on a couple of things. what goals you have for wrestling? how old are you? how long have you been wrestling? two years? or getting more involved the past two years?
if you are looking to get to the next level in wrestling, this camp would be for you. we have options of 10, 14, or 28 days...where the 10 or 14 day might be right up your alley.
i would recommend calling and speaking to someone here at our office (612.349.6585)...they will be able to help you.
i still carry the j rob lanyard with so i cn always remember wat pain sacrifice and determination reaaly is this camp had helped me in so many ways not just in wrestling but in the real world
so say my son wants to go to the camp, and he makes it thru, but he dosen't have enough points, he dosent get a tee shirt that says "i did it" on it? im not saying he will slack off or anything but im just wondering
no he will not get it. i am a 2009 camper and i attended the 28 day camp this past summer and i did graduate and get the shirt, but many of my friends did not. you start out with 1000 points and you need 700 to get the shirt, but they never tell you how many point u have or lost so youll never know so u have to always go hard at every session
you can earn points by having a positive attitude, working the hardest in your group for that session, etc. you lose points for just the opposite, slacking off, being late, etc.
youtube doesn't allow for us to post our website or email address, you will have to go to our site (jrobinsoncamps) and get it off of there.
um i was checking out the website and it says that your giving one shirt and the chance to earn 2 others can u explain what the other two shirts are and how you earn them.thankyou
intensive camp is based on a point system. each person starts with the full amount of points. you can earn points and you can lose points.
if you earn points (get a 'positive') you receive an "I'm Gonna Be Somebody" t-shirt. if you end camp with enough points to graduate, you receive the coveted "I Did It" t-shirt.
Everyone who attends camp, gets an Intensive Camp t-shirt.
any other questions, let us know, or email us, we can write more in an email than here (it is limited).
i have a question...im sure this pushes you and makes you much tuffer but im wondering about the technique. i know theres alot of mat wrestling but how is the tech compared to other camps...thankyou
we have 2 on the mat sessions each day. one technique and one what we call 'hard practice'...in addition most nights also include review.
both of these practices improve upon your technique. each counselor and coach will teach and review different moves. with the quality of staff and format of camp, our technique is top notch.
we have 4 camps during the summer. 1 is 10-days (in Iowa), 2 are 14-days (in Pennsylvania and somewhere on the west coast still to be determined) and 1 is 28-days (in Minnesota).
there are 4 sessions each day. you can visit our website or email us with any questions.
I completed Mr. Robinson's camp in 1986. I still hold what the camp taught me to be true. I believe the Jay Robinson is a great coach. I still have a white shirt in the bottom of my drawer that says I did it folded perfectly. So everyday I wake up and get dress. I remember Mr. Robinson's message.
i noticed that they had video cameras taping us on the last red flag day and on the 15 mile run from the 28 day camp. just wondering what that video footage was for? and if we can see it somewhere.....
This was the hardest thing i have ever done. Physically and mentally. There were so many times that i thought I was gunna quit and go home early but I'm so happy that i finished the camp and got my I DID IT shirt. I made so many friends there that I already miss and I will never forget them. I wanna thank all of the staff. J Robinson, McGivern, the hard ass, enoch, Ben, saunders, sunny, I.D. manny, the trainers, and everyone else. You guys are awesome. i will miss you and thanks for everything.
I was in running group 6: the slowest...and i was the 3rd lightest person out of everybody in camp:/ ha,
Well, im gonna miss all the coaches but i dont think ill miss the getting up at 630 and running or the hard drilling for forever or the 3 440's or any of that stuff.. aha.
This video brings back alot of memorys.. Its soo true. This camp does change your life.. Not just to be a better wrestler, But to be a better person. This was deffinatly one of the hardest things ive done in my life, Physically AND mentally. I always thought "Oh, i cant do anymore, i gotta stop, im too tired" But then one coach or another was there, pushing me to do as much as i could. I was the only girl there, so i wasnt very hard to miss. 5:34 McGivern...
I already signed up for the jay rob camp in minnesota. Can we also stick athletic tape on the back of our shirts and write our names on the athletic tape?
i am going to 28 day intensive, just wondering if we get a day of more rest than workouts and what can we do during our free time? is there a t.v. or something?
hey j rob im a 7th grader going in to my 2nd year of wrestling im going to try to go to this camp once i have a job save almost every penny, what advice do you have to be a state or ncaa champion at this level how stroung and how fast should i be and what stuff should i be going to like camps and extra activdes i should do please reply see ya later
this video brought back memories, this camp was definately to best. it's tougher than shit, but it's all worth it in the end. i was glad that i chose this camp over iowa's camp which was dan gable's at the time. i went to john smith's intensive camp in oklahoma state, and j's is still way better in my honest opinion.
hey so do we have to shower and wear clean clothes after every single workout(running/lifting/wrestling)? or only after the wrestling practices? just wondering so i can get an idea on how many shirts i should buy. thanks.
no you are not doing anything wrong, since it is your first time logging on there is no set password, so now when you go to log in click "forgot my password" and enter your e mail address and they will send you a password to you e mail. after you log in you can change it. i had to do the same thing when i signed up last month.

i have a question...im sure this pushes you and makes you much tuffer but im wondering about the technique. i know theres alot of mat wrestling but how is the tech compared to other camps...thankyou
agbimson 2 years ago
we have 2 on the mat sessions each day. one technique and one what we call 'hard practice'...in addition most nights also include review.
both of these practices improve upon your technique. each counselor and coach will teach and review different moves. with the quality of staff and format of camp, our technique is top notch.

cudderfan1110 2 years ago
we work on all aspects of wrestling...so yes, weight is definitely something we go over.
we do not allow weight cutting at camp, but teach you how to do it correctly.

I completed Mr. Robinson's camp in 1986. I still hold what the camp taught me to be true. I believe the Jay Robinson is a great coach. I still have a white shirt in the bottom of my drawer that says I did it folded perfectly. So everyday I wake up and get dress. I remember Mr. Robinson's message.

This was the hardest thing i have ever done. Physically and mentally. There were so many times that i thought I was gunna quit and go home early but I'm so happy that i finished the camp and got my I DID IT shirt. I made so many friends there that I already miss and I will never forget them. I wanna thank all of the staff. J Robinson, McGivern, the hard ass, enoch, Ben, saunders, sunny, I.D. manny, the trainers, and everyone else. You guys are awesome. i will miss you and thanks for everything.

Ahh, Crazy old man he was.
I looked at him and i thought
"Why is everyone saying he's good? He's old.."
Well, i saw him wrestle and then i knew why..
I was in running group 6: the slowest...and i was the 3rd lightest person out of everybody in camp:/ ha,
Well, im gonna miss all the coaches but i dont think ill miss the getting up at 630 and running or the hard drilling for forever or the 3 440's or any of that stuff.. aha.
But like J says
Get up and train while your apponent is sleeping.

gatorwrestling12 2 years ago

jrobinsoncamps 2 years ago
I already signed up for the jay rob camp in minnesota. Can we also stick athletic tape on the back of our shirts and write our names on the athletic tape?

what about headgear and knee pads? mine are pretty worn out and they dont sell any wrestling equipment where i live.
kev1nater 2 years ago
these are not required, but are recommended. we do have some knee pads in the camp store, but not headgear.
if you really need them, i would suggest ordering them and having them delivered to your dorm address.
jrobinsoncamps 2 years ago
just wondering how much soap and shampoo should we bring for 28 day intensive? also will there be meals served the first day of camp?
xbigtunax 2 years ago
you will be showering about 4 times per day, so enough for that many showers.
dinner is served on the first day of camp.

i am going to 28 day intensive, just wondering if we get a day of more rest than workouts and what can we do during our free time? is there a t.v. or something?
xbigtunax 2 years ago
generally, you have sunday mornings off, otherwise it is 4 workouts each day. not a lot of resting.
in the lounge there is a tv and we provide some movies in the evening.
jrobinsoncamps 2 years ago
I know we run a timed mile sprint at the beginning of camp. Does this determine what running group we are placed in? Thank you in advance.

yes.

ncaawrestler4life 2 years ago
for intensive camp, after you sign up, you receive a 'pre camp work out'
this helps prepare so can be somewhat ready when you get to camp.
jrobinsoncamps 2 years ago
any past campers got any advice on some stuff to bring while were not training? to keep us entertained
kev1nater 2 years ago
do we have to bring a jump rope to camp because thats what it said in the confirmation materials?
xbigtunax 2 years ago
yes. or you can buy one in our camp store, but you will need one.
jrobinsoncamps 2 years ago
this video brought back memories, this camp was definately to best. it's tougher than shit, but it's all worth it in the end. i was glad that i chose this camp over iowa's camp which was dan gable's at the time. i went to john smith's intensive camp in oklahoma state, and j's is still way better in my honest opinion.
volkce28n 2 years ago
hey so do we have to shower and wear clean clothes after every single workout(running/lifting/wrestling)? or only after the wrestling practices? just wondering so i can get an idea on how many shirts i should buy. thanks.

all. you will be going through about 4 sets each day.

5tichezakaclip5e 2 years ago
no you are not doing anything wrong, since it is your first time logging on there is no set password, so now when you go to log in click "forgot my password" and enter your e mail address and they will send you a password to you e mail. after you log in you can change it. i had to do the same thing when i signed up last month.
