Some are blessed with an intensity, certain physiological advantages, and a will that others simply don\u2019t have so I always laugh at this \u201c3-1 for me!\u201d or \u201cIn real, that would\u2019ve taken you out\u201d mentality I see many sparring with. It\u2019s comical because that is an element you simply don\u2019t know and cannot build your house upon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. The ability to shift and intensify aggression levels. All, every single one of my students, past and present, have heard me say \u201cEveryone -everyone- has 2,3, 4 levels more of aggression than they ever show in class. In sparring. In resistance-training. In pressure-testing. Everyone. Now whether they know how to access or trigger those levels and access that animal-inside\u2026is a different thing entirely. And, yes, there are ways to do and teach that as well. Do not think that whatever you see me doing in the videos I put out is the same creature that you\u2019d be facing if you presented an immediate and direct threat to my family \u2013 it\u2019s not. (and many other experienced people in this industry undoubtedly – and justifiably – would say the same thing about themselves) This, again, can absolutely include fear, adrenal-stress response, innate resistance due to a number of intangibles as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. The attention to those \u201cmicro-movements\u201d that \u201cour group\u201d so often discuss, what an industry-friend terms so well \u201cnaturally-occurring technique\u201d. Figuring out what it is that you, the individual, does to super-charge your techniques, or whatever it is that drives your personal success and works specific to you. Systems so rarely teach this as it tends to go against their syllabus, chain-of-command, or mechanical-reproduction and assembly-line mentality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I so very\nrarely see these 5 being addressed, which would seemingly reflect the rather\nuniversal view of systemic (over-) reliance and a false sense-of-security in formalized\ntraining. Just my take, if needing ask for change back from my .02. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have always found personal success in the physical-arena: fighting, sparring, combat, violence, resistance, pressure due to a number of intangibles that have until now given me an distinct advantage \u2013 that rather huge thing that I see so few addressing in the field. 1.
