All athletes contested naked, so too did the wrestlers.

∙ 6y ago
Ancient Greek wrestlers competed naked as it was considered more practical for the sport. The absence of clothing allowed for greater mobility, reduced the risk of gripping and tearing, and eliminated any potential advantages or disadvantages associated with clothing. Additionally, the Ancient Greeks viewed nudity as a symbol of athletic prowess and celebration of the human body.
