The biggest challenge in Martial arts isn't the strength and conditioning, the perfect combination or cross-training six disciplines. It's his do you keep showing up? Through injury. Through life phases. Through good times. Through hard times. How do I trick my brain? When it's telling me the class already started, I'm hurt or something else? It's a part of my identity. If my shoulder hurts I'll train jabs. If I hit my head, I'll slowly train footwork. If I have something to celebrate, it's preferably outside of training hours. If I'm going through something, training is my anchor. If we skip two weeks, the third will be harder to get back in the rhythm. So many hours and weeks wasted on my end because of exams, injuries or something else. Keep training 💪
