I found throwing my mass into the guy works too. It just means you go right through him. You throw your body weight at him, like a giant bowling ball. But I have not been in many "real fights" (SD situations).

And there's weights in the room. 2/3 is weights so you can lift your opponent and drop him on his neck, only 1/3 is boxing. I filled up my punching bag with cement but I've also toned it down since I'm not training to be a professional. When I hit that bag I learned to use gloves and I don't crack it as hard as possible either.

I could almost guarantee I would be in a fight in college if I wore nice clothes out to the club. If I wore a t-shirt and old Docs no one bothered me. If I wore a nice shirt and slacks I’d end up with all the buttons ripped off. Nice clothes are like a red flag to @$$ holes.

And when the sun of culture shines low, even dwarves like Thompson will cast long shadows. Yea, because speaking from my own experience with this person, you know pressure testing Geoff Thompson ... when the shit hits the fan, so to speak ... I can honestly say, he does not practice what he preaches. Thus he doesn't deserve teaching. He doesn't deserve being called “teacher“. Not practicing what you preach is an absolute no-go in terms of teaching. “Do as I say, don't do as I do“ comes to mind. Fake Geoff Thompson as it is. Concerning his work, I can honestly say, his books aren't worth the money in the first place. Just another fake, trying to milk the curious out of their money. You can tell when you look close enough. The paper is worth more than his message. Public relation nonsense as it is. Sad enough, people realize this only after they have wasted their money. And, you know ... and that's just between the two of us, youtuber: I grew tired of his Bafta ... blah blub ... I have a Bafta ... blahblub ... Bafta ... blub ... flat, empty show-off nonsense with no self-esteem. Something he claims and preaches to everyone he had. Self souvereignity jerk, as it is. Just speaking truth to power; just letting you all know reality about this person...

"Heavy sparring" is far from essential for managing confrontations and finishing the guy with a premptive shot but if he doesn't go down, or he beats you to the punch or his mate wades in from nowhere, the ability to slip or eat a shot and go right back at the guy is vital. Like ground fighting, it's a backup but a bloody important one. Heavy sparring or milling isn't just physical either, it builds the mental toughness to get you through a confrontation.

@baldieman646 жыл бұрын
I always preferred milling to sparing. No scoring points, no reciprocity, just keep going no matter what he throws. With the newbies, we used to put the headguards on even though we didn't allow strikes to the head or below the belt, strap on the boxing gloves and just have them go at each other for 30 seconds. Inevitably, they were huffing and puffing at the end of it and had a smile from ear to ear like they had just gone five rounds with Tyson and Won. We'd up the time and include head shots as people got more experienced but for getting people through fear of fighting, I know of no finer exercise.
@glennclark13056 жыл бұрын
baldieman. I totally agree. We 'mill' in our club, but from now on will use headguards as well. Took advice off my surgeon (had detatched retina) Milling is a fantastic 'Leveller' no matter what belt you are. So good for you mate and your club. I used to train with Geoff in the 90's he is a fantastic coach and a gent

Been there, done that. Caught a finger that tore up my retina. Three surgeries so far. Still have damage to the muscles behind the eye and no sight in the left of my right eye's visual field but it's the knackered knees that stopped me training. I only trained with Geoff at one seminar when we were affiliated to the BCA and wish I'd taken more time to make use of the resource that was only down the road in Coventry.

Hallo Oliver! Vielen dank für deine Nachricht! Mein Video ist ja schon etwas älter. Aber ich benutzte noch immer die selbe Kamera! Und zwar die Sony Handycam (heißt nur so, hat nichts mit einem Telefon zu tun) HD AVCHD HDR Cx130. Die Dinger sind Schlagpolster, weil wir eine Kampfsportgruppe sind! :-)
