Freestyle wrestling was first introduced to the Olympics during the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis and was only disputed by American wrestlers. Freestyle is a big part of Olympic wrestling along with Greco Roman. Freestyle is very similar to normal folkstyle wrestling. In Freestyle holds are basically unlimited if they are not dangerous. You can lock up on basically any part of the body. Freestyle is much more open than all the other styles of wrestling and you can do much more.
