Training in the room is great. It’s fun, it’s social, it’s a good hobby, but to connect what we do with the outside world we must introduce difficulty and hardship. Whether it is a self-defense situation or a competition, one of the main challenges is the stress that comes with those situations. Luckily, there are many ways we can recreate or reproduce and even induce stress as part of training. Fortunately, or unfortunately for you, I am formulating diabolical ways to make our team better at handling these circumstances.
