A cool drill we did last night.


Recommended Posts

We did an interesting drill last night.

What we did is with a partner, one person closes their eyes, while the other person punches them in the stomach. The key is the punches have to come in random and not rythmiclly.

Some of you might think this is odd, but it really teaches you how important it is to breath properly while always having your stomach tense.

In a tournement, you can't always predict when you are going to be punched, and good fighters will watch the breathing of their opponent. When their opponent takes a big deep breath, the fighter punches in the stomach to wind them.

It's difficult, try it sometime.

Wouldn't it just be easier to spar with people? :lol:

We kinda do simular type training in my Krav Maga class. Although we dont close our eyes and just get hit (although the instructor may have it coming) but we will stand in the center of the room, eyes closed and the instructor will have like 3 or 4 differnt people attack from whatever angle they choose one may come up from the side and aplly a headlock and you defend, almost no sooner you have him off you, then another comes and chokes you from the front, the whole time, you keep your eyes closed so you cannot tell which angle the attack is coming from.

We also have drill where we stand eyes closed and someone with a tombstone Pad will come from whichever direction and shove it into you, and you immediately turn, identify and attack the target that is presented. the attacker will either be holding the pad for a groin kick, a left/right combo, or a hammer strike, etc. The key is to resond quickly and identify a target quickly under surprise attack from your blind spots.
