A warrior knows that an untrained person can kill just as easily as one that has a lifetime of training.

What is training for warriors?

Zulu Warrior training

When looking in to the lives of warriors the training was oftern more brutal than the fighting.

Perhaps this is why it is better to;

Sweat more when training than it is to bleed when fighting.

As ancient warriors condition were harsh when training, perhaps to learn from this.

To consider ourselves to be very lucky in comparison and not to be concered about sweating the small stuff, as those warriors in the past paved the way for you and me today.

Insights from a Spartan warrior.

A historian once told me that we do not learn from the past then it is similar to having amnesia.

Spartan warriors I am told were not athletes, as this way needs proper diets and rest, whereas the warriors standpoint was eating scrapes of food with hardly much sleep.

The way of the warrior is based on hardships, this is just a reminder that athletes and warriors are very different.

Alan,

You are 100% correct with the difference between warriors and athletes. Warriors are conditioned to survive through hardships and deprivation. They train themselves physically and mentally in order to survive on the battlefield. Whereas athletes, especially in the modern sense, do not.
