Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:08:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Isaac https://chadhowsefitness.com/2011/02/learn-how-to-fight/#comment-9235 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:08:30 +0000 http://www.chadhowsefitness.com/?p=2189#comment-9235 I totally agree, Chad, both figuratively and literally. One of the reasons I always encourage any parent I know to get their child involved in a martial art is so that they do learn what it's like to get hit in the face and to keep their head.

As you mentioned, even if they never get into another physical fight in their life, LIFE will hit them in the face. Too many people just take it or allow it to spiral them way out of control. Learning to take a hit without taking your eyes off of the prize is one of the most valuable lessons you can learn.

That is why I started training for boxing last year. Another thing that boxing gives me is a goal: why I train. I build my strength and power to perform well (and look good, too). Even if you aren't a boxer, or in another kind of combat sport, you can still keep a potential emergency like a fight in mind for added motivation.

You had a blog post last July called "Emergencies: Why We Train". Recognizing that functional strength training can help us in an emergency is just one more reason to hit the gym.

Another top quality post, Chad.

Great post.
