Confront your reasons for training...

There is a particular philosophy behind the way I teach and train.

"Training should be so demanding that it forces you to constantly confront and evaluate the reasons you train"

It takes a certain type of individual to willingly subject themselves to the type of training that is required to be the Elite of any sport. I have subjected myself to many forms of training over the years and I completely believe that training to be an Elite fighter is the most demanding and beneficial form of training. High level fighters are the best conditioned athletes in the world because fighting requires every form of endurance and strength. Every energy system must be developed to a high level. It is very important to train to the very best of your abilities every single time you train. Everyone has off days, is sick, injured and so on at some point during training however you should train to your maximal capacity on any given day.
