Is wrestling too much cardio to bulk?

I'm 16 130 and bulking for 2 months, I heard you don't want to over do cardio on a bulk, just light 20min cardio session. But freestyle wrestling is starting and I can't go light when I'm fighting another guy. Will this have a negative effect on my bulking?

    good question, its all about calories bro

    when you are bulking you are eating lots of calories which makes you gain weight

    so anything that burns calories is not helping you

    wrestling burns calories since it uses up a lot of your energy

    but thats ok, just figure out about how many calories you're burning in each wrestling session, im guessing 500-1000 calories,

    so that means you should eat that much more that day so you're bulking will not be affected

    thats all there is to it, hope that helped :]

    No as long as u work out more on your lifting and stay away from running yojll be ok

    Wrestling will get u enough cardio since ur looking to bulk

    I myself am doing the same i recomend taking creatine it will definately help with gains (:
