fighting drills

[tsdtony]

one steps are great for showing the macanecs of a teckniqe.But thay do in a way teach you a bad habbit.you get too used to the attack beang troun in the same position. on the street your attacker is not going to trough the same punch froum the same position every time.What we do is incoparet are one steps into sparring so we get used to doing that tecniqe agenst difrent attakes not just the same inside out block to the same old high punch.you dont want your muscel memory to get you hit in a fight.

Yery true. One steps and the like can be really useful for teaching distance, timing, correct technique etc etc but they can also create bad habits in students. Personally, I like one-steps and think they can be useful in the right context, but shouldn't be seen as a good way of drilling effective SD techniques.

i think all training methods have their place.... but some are just more effecitve than others....
