He has additionally, competed and won the Canadian National Wrestling Championships for three consecutive years in both freestyle and Greco-Roman styles, the only wrestler to have done so. In July 2016, he was officially named to Canada's 2016 Olympic team. At the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, he placed 8th in the 125 kg category in men's freestyle wrestling. Jarvis most recently placed 7th in the 125 kg category in men's freestyle wrestling at the 2017 World Wrestling Championships in Paris, France.
Jarvis studied at the Conestoga College, and has a daughter Brynlee. He took up wrestling aged 14. Between 2010 and 2014 he moved from the 96 kg to 125 kg class to avoid cutting weight before competitions, as he was normally heavier than 100 kg.
