Training Differently

To get improved results for your defense capability against multiple opponents you need to approach your training differently. The key to getting real improvements for your group encounter work is to ensure your weapons do not dominate your actions.

You have to reprogram your coordination so that your legwork drives your actions as this is the first step to achieving full energisation. You need to ensure your coordination and your mind does not revert to a focus on your strikes, kicks, etc. when you encounter resistance from your opponent/s.

The lower half and top half of the body have to be able to keep working effectively together under resistance and be able to transfer some of your mass effect to your opponent without locking up your body. Core training has two parts i.e. with resistance from an opponent and without resistance.

In terms of weapons you have your mass effect but you also have reflex actions and to sharpen your tools you should train the forearms and hands so that they will react when you are in real time.
