Bronze Medalist At Paris Olympics, Aman Sehrawat Shed 4.6 Kg In 10 Hours In Such A Remarkable Way

Indian woman wrestler, Vinesh Phogat made her nation proud with her stint at the Paris Olympics 2024. Unfortunately, Vinesh, her coaches and the entire nation's dream was shattered when she was disqualified from the finals for being overweight by just 100 grams. Everyone sided with the wrestler after her heartbreaking moment, and she even announced her retirement from wrestling. However, following her, all eyes were stuck on the Indian male wrestler, Aman Sehrawat, who also weighed 4.5 kg more than the finale's limit soon after the semifinal round was over.

Aman Sehrawat shed 4.6 kg in just 10 hours and could grab the bronze medal at Paris Olympics 2024

Aman's match against Japan's Rei Higuchi concluded around 6:30 PM on August 8, 2024. However, the concern about the wrestler's few kgs more weight couldn't leave him and his coaches, Jagmander Singh and Virender Dahiya, to take any risk. Thus, they embarked on the journey to meet Aman's required weight for the men’s 57kg freestyle wrestling event at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Their hard work and perseverance undoubtedly paid off when Aman won the bronze medal, defeating Puerto Rico's Darian Cruz on August 9, 2024. Aman's achievement made him India's youngest Olympic medalist.

After the semifinal, Aman weighed 61.5kg, some 4.5kg over the permitted limit, which caused concern for his coaches, Jagmandeer Singh and Virender Dahiya. Thus, the three of them embarked on Aman's remarkable weight loss journey over the next 10 hours, and he could shed 4.6kg before the final event. Without taking any pause in their preparation for the finals, the wrestler began working out within an hour and a half on the mat, and both his coaches got engaged in standing wrestling. An hour-long hot bath session followed this.

At 12.30 PM, Aman hit the gym for an hour-long treadmill session. Aman was then given a 30-minute break, followed by five sessions of 5-minute saunas to help him lose weight through sweating. Despite this much effort, the 21-year-old still weighed 900 grams more than the permitted limit of 57 kg. Thus, Aman again began doing some light jogging, followed by five 15-minute running sessions. Between these sessions, Aman was given lukewarm water with lemon and honey and some coffee to drink.

It is noteworthy that Aman could not sleep all the while and kept watching videos of wrestling bouts the whole night. Along with him, the senior Indian coaches also stayed awake to support him in his remarkable weight loss journey. Indian coach, Virender Dahiya while speaking about the same to PTI, said:

“We kept checking his weight every hour. We didn't sleep the whole night, not even during the day… Weight cutting is routine, normal for us but there was tension, a lot of tension due to what happened the other day (with Vinesh Phogat). We could not let slip another medal.”
