Great success was the overall feeling coming out of the 2013 Maximized Living chiropractic conference held in Denver this past weekend, May 3-4. 

USA Wrestling and the Committee for the Preservation of Olympic Wrestling (CPOW) joined forces in an effort to promote Olympic wrestling at this conference as part of World Wrestling Month. 

The initiative included two booths promoting Olympic Wrestling and the appearance of two top athletes, 2012 World Champion Adeline Gray and 2013 National Champion J.D. Bergman. USA Wrestling’s marketing staff and athletes handed out over 1,000 Olympic Wrestling packages that included 50 Keep Wrestling in the Olympics cards and display cards for the Maximized Living doctors to put on display at their practices.
