What is Training exactly.. ? what do you do that is called training like are you training for a martial arts tournament or do you go under a tree.. meditate and then try to cut it down with your sword? ?

Training to me, is going to class everyday (or every other day) and getting better at your chosen MA. If you "train" (practice) hard, you'll get better at whatever you do.

 

 

IMHO, I think training is just another word for bettering or getting better at something, but it could be more than that.

 

 

Training is practice to persue your goals. You can train by physical practice and by spiritual practice (if thats in your goals).

 

Training will more commonly refer to the physical aspect.

 

 

I see "training" as the means by which we are able to hone our skill and technique as a martial artist. This could be anything from sparring to gym work for your muscles or meditation to strengthen your mind. Training is YOUR way of better yourself. It is whatever you make it.

It's important to note that there is a mental (and for some people, spiritual) component to training as well. It's not just lifting weights and running through drills.

 

 

training for me is trying to reach a goal. for instance i am trying to do 100 press-ups in a row so i do press-ups everyday. thats what training means to me.

 

 

I think training is having something you've already got and improving it like if you do 100 pressups on monday you must try to do 110 on wednesady
