cutting weight causing weight gain in the long run

hey i was wondering if some of you wrestlers out there have had any experience with a lot of weight gain due to cutting weight during the season. I would think that the ****bolism is being slowed and also the body gets confused with the crazy dieting in the routine of making weight.
As a result of this perhaps in the long run the body will gain a lot more weight then the natural/original weight.

I am a natural 150 cutting to 141 for the season. Should i be expecting after the season to work harder to keep my natural 150 because the season will screw up my ****bolism? At least work harder til my ****bolism gets back in sync?

Cutting weight actually hurt me once I got older. I find it harder to gain weight now.

it all depends on the person i guess. in high school i cut bout 5 to 8 lbs give or take for wrestling and 6 years later, i only weight 20 lbs more, but ive been weight training and i move furniture for a living. i guess time will tell......

it depends on your cutting diet. the all natural peanut butter diet and the warrior diet will both cut weight fantastically, but they'll both effect you differently when you go off it.

one rasies ****bolism, one lowers it.
