Controlling adrenaline shakes....

[SevenStar]

Adrenaline shuts your mind down...bad for fighting...good for running.

 

shuts down you mind.......i dont think so,

 

if anything its like a boost for your neurons, opening new pathways for information to reach the brain, and allow quicker response of muscular and vascular systems, including the synthesis of ADP/ATP.

 

sure, it 'could' cause a sensory overload of the brain when too much information hits the CNS, that is, assuming the user is completely unused to adrenal situations.

 

otherwise adrenaline, (epinephrine,) is pretty-much the chemical that chemist mock to make speed, (psuedoephedrine,) and many military agencies mock in the production of combat-drugs.

 

1kickko was right. once the adrenaline begins to flow and the heart rate elevates past a certain point, you forget anything that is not ingrained into you. This is why you see some MA who are good in class but get killed in streetfights. their techniques aren't ingrained well enough. this is also why some people freeze in the face of danger - deer in the headlights syndrome. It's beacuse the brain is not functioning at it's normal capacity. you have forgotten everything that wasn't ingrained. That's why people say "you fight how you train"

you'd be surprised how many people - both trained and untrained - aren't used to it.

i wannabe used to it

one focus of any style which emphisizes self defence should definantly be addressing the nature of adrenal induced states.

 

i wouldnt be surprized at the amount of people who cant control motorreflex after a hit of adrenaline, trust me,

 

i enjoy adrenaline, but i still cant completely control my adrenal hits, its just something to try to train towards.

 

if we have no exposure to the nature of one thing, how can we possibly understand, let alone have a degree of control of that thing?

 

one thing i cant argue with SevenStar, is that the brain isnt working at normal capacity.

 

the nature of adrenaline is to open up numerous different pathways within the CNS, possible doubling the amount of sensory information on route to the brain, if one was not used to this sensation-----sensory overload, if one can control themself under the adrenal induced state------advantage.

The only time I like adrenaline is when I have to run...hahahaha.

[krzychicano]

hahaha run like speedy gonzalez!

[1kickKO]

yeah you know it.

adrenaline shakes might be good for mixing up your own margaritas?

it's an experience thing. One good way is full contact sparring. you train to defend yourself, but until you've really been hit a few times, people still tend to have a hint of doubt in the back of their minds. That hint of doubt is magnified 100 fold when adrenaline rushes.

 

I fully agree, experience on learning to take hits (good hard, see stars hits) is a good way to curb the adrenaline jolts

With me when the adrenaline wears off I feel completey drained Is it the same for others??
