How often do you train?

Just out of curiosity, how often do you train?

 

When I first started, trying to manage a relationship, work and school, I was only able to train about two hour-long sessions a week.

 

After awhile I got to where training was all I was thinking about and started attending morning classes.

 

Now I train twice on Monday & Wednesdays, and was finally able to work around my work schedule to train on Fridays (face contact) and Saturdays before work. And although I wouldn't call it necessarily traditional training, I have since found myself doing a good deal of additional training at home, working on perfecting various techniques, stretching as well as tossing some weight training in.

 

There is a semi-knockdown coming up in December I am trying to get prepared for and so far my progress is looking good.

 

So how often do you train? :)

3 to 6 times a week, when I can. But, I often travel on my job and work long hours when travelling.

My training has really suffered this past year because of a chronic back injury. When I first started the arts, I attended 3, three hour classes/week, and trained on my own religously at least one hour/day on my own....some times more.

 

In the past year, depending on how my back has been feeling, I have been trying to train twice/week or more if possible...but there are quite a few weeks that I can't do much of anything in the way of hard training. Most often I will start practicing kata or basics..and anywhere from 15 minutes, to an hour, and that's about all I can take. IT SUCKS!!! :kaioken:

I completely understand. At 20 years old, I have a bulging disk in my lower back that is hitting a nerve that sends pain from there down my lower leg through my calf to my ankle. The odd thing is that the only time I don't feel it is when I do train. The more I strech the less it bothers me aswell. :-?

I have a nasty curve in my lower spine, right about the belt line, and where it gets me the most is when I do any sort of kick with my right leg. No pain down the leg, but certainly in the back. It will drop me literally to the ground.

I train every moment of every day...in one way or another.....there is always something that can be worked on or thought about.
