Symphony-x Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 So, when training do you guys/girls listen to music? and if so what kind?i personally listen to varied types of music, if im going for speed 'shadow boxing' i listen to fast paced music, and tend to listen to metal. i.e machine head.when in class we have to listen to varied music... even ZZ Top at times i also would love to find some 'broken rythmed' music like what BL talks about, so i could train to move to its tempo etc.discuss and stuff Willing - Believing - AchievingOrange Belt: Freestyle/Sport Karate - Kickboxing - Boxing
KarateEd Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I don't listen to music at all when I am training. Never really thought about doing it.Ed Ed
lordtariel Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Sometimes I'll listen to music when I train. It's more likely that I will when doing strength training or bag work. I'll listen to mostly up-tempo stuff. There's a couple of older threads floating around here somewhere about this. There's no place like 127.0.0.1
MisterRadley Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I only listen to music when I run, but then it's Linkin Park, Red Hot Chili Peppers, or the Black Eyed Peas.
patusai Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I just hit turn on my itunes, shuffle it and let it play. Varied kind of music "Don't tell me the sky's the limit because I have seen footprints on the moon!" -- Paul Brandt
gzk Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 i also would love to find some 'broken rythmed' music like what BL talks about, so i could train to move to its tempo etc.discuss and stuff Three words: Dillinger Escape Plan.Some Tool works well for that too, or the more technical Cryptopsy stuff. If you don't require guitars, the more aggressive Aphex Twin and Squarepusher stuff works too. Battling biomechanical dyslexia since 2007
bushido_man96 Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 I don't make it a point to listen to music when I train. If some is playing, then that is ok, but I don't pay much attention to it, unless a song I like comes on. Then, I'll tap my feet a bit. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
jaymac Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 My instructor always has the music on. I do not always notice it until it is off. On many nights during the week at 7:00 the hockey game starts. I am an avid Sabres fan! When it comes on, I want to listen. Then he turns the radio off. I know it is best though, but you gotta love those sabres! A great martial artist is one who is humble and respectful of others.
cathal Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 We listen to music in some of our special training sessions. It really helps you to learn the rhythm of combat. It doesn't much matter what you're listening to so long as the beat does not change timing. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu
a_ninja Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 When im doing softer styles which focus on redirecting attacks like tai chi i listen to slow soothing music, but when im endurance training with muay thai karate tak kwon do and ect i listen to guns n roses the best fight is one that doesnt happen
