Multiplying Motivation in various training

[Anonymous 26]

I want to embark on a training regime with various angles of disciplines… (maybe am wanting to bit off more than I can chew). But am talking about cardio, resistance, martial arts and combat training (CQB), and weapons trainings.

Are any of you training in a multitude of angles (for lack of better terminology)?

How are you managing your training?

What pumps you up and gets your motivation fueled?

I don’t because my body can’t recover from all that. The other thing to take into consideration is that spreading your efforts across multiple goals will result in less achievement within each goal. Consider simplifying your routine if you feel tired/and or arnt making as much progress as you want.

This guy motivates me.

Because in order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.

Here’s what I did back when. I took my martial art of choice and simultaneously lifted free weights. I added and subtracted exercise programs to best further my martial art training.

Tiga K…. I hear your warning loud and clear bro, There are certain aspects of the training I want to embark upon where the physical effort won’t be like that of resistance training. But rather where am training in techniques like Tai Chi or Wing Chun where the mind muscle concentration is more at play with repetitious training. This is when tired and sore muscles will be focused into a muscle memory condition with techniques of blocking, sweeps, traps and the like. Am training solo so I need to think outside the box.

I completely agree that if efforts spread haphazardly across multiple goals the results can not only be less achievement but also running a greater risk of injury.

BulletDodger………… yeah see this is good stuff! I can download that video as an mp3 and close my eyes to listen too and light a fuse to a fire with. Even though am not in law enforcement or military, the Navy Seal mindset is another aspect or source of motivation I’ve started looking into.

RoyDal…………….. great advice, I read it as “keep what works in the whole scheme of things and eliminate what doesn’t”. AND granted, if I come off the day before doing some heavy duty leg work with weights….. am not going to follow it with extensive kicking drills.

Not to discredit Tae Kwon Do, but I always felt that trying to knock an opponent’s head while he’s standing as a big effort of energy requiring a lot of skills and assurance of kept balance. Why aim and shoot high when a low sweep brings an opponent closer to the ground.

I’ve been watching Doug Marcaida vids on YT and that guy’s armed/weapons techniques are pretty impressive.
