sansoouser Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 They say Mas Oyama trained for 12 hours a day and a judo expert trained for 9, now what would you do for those hours? I know the judo guy did 1000 push ups a day compared to his rivals only doing 400 hundred. But what else would you do? FOR 12 HOURS!?!??!?!? The amateur shoots his hands out ferociously, but lacks any true power. A master is not so flamboyant, but his touch is as heavy as a mountain.

G95champ Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 H. Walker fromer NFL great RB with the Dallas Cowboys and other teams never lifted a weight but did 1000 push up's, 1000 set up's, ran 5 miles and did TKD training everyday to stay in shape. I don't know how long it took him to do all of this but he was maybe the best college player ever at UGA and played in the NFL for about 10 seasons. (General George S.

StoneSkin Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 I know there are soem pro bodybuilders that have pretty intense training. But these guys also openly admit to steroid use and dont need any recovery time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telsun Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 an hour or 2 depending on how fast you did it That's an hour or 2 gone then. But realistically you could spend most of the day studying just one kata. Add that to your exercises, cardio, conditioning, etc and I reckon you would soon be making the 12 hours. It must take amazing discipline to train in such a way. I keep asking God what I'm for and he tells me........."gee I'm not sure!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
